Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for June 02, 2016

Looks like somebody’s going to get a hit, Tru’ll be regretting giving her that nickname.

They’re warning you of the speed trap, moron.

Also, P2: the pod person who’s taken over Boo’s nubile young body is starting to molt, and needs to get back to its capsule before the face falls off.

Swifti Mart? So SMart is just a convenience store and not the Milford version of KMart? Quite a selection: bread, milk, slushies, and Wake Forest baseball caps.

Boo gets pulled over and is found to have consumed twice the legal limit of french fries.

Boo’s car was removed from the color strip at AZCentral. Interestingly enough, her hand is still in the position to hold the steering wheel. http://archive.azcentral.com/thingstodo/comics/king-comics.html?feature_id=Gil_Thorp

If Boo’s car is an automatic, like most are, it sure looks like she left it in gear rather than park. Maybe that will delay her enough to miss Del. Biff doesn’t appear to be that lucky,

They might have to replace when with if in P2 tomorrow.

If Del survives, he’ll likely have a 2nd date with the cow judge. It would behoove him to get off the road before he causes an udder disaster. How cud he be so stupid. Best case for him is he’ll be hoofing it everywhere for a long time. Okay, I’ve milked this enough, before you guys cream me.

Apologies.

I’m pulling for the cow judge to end this jumbo debacle!

P2- Kudos to Boo Rad becoming a full time ensemble member of Milford Masterpiece Theatre. Drive to the light Delbert. Arnold Brent, Neal Cray and Jay Bird Fowler are waiting for you

A drunk driver coming from one direction and a distracted teen on the phone coming from the other direction. Mr. Reality has got nowhere to hide.

P3…I’m driving to Hawaii, idiot…stop flashing your brights…

Okay, a (presumed) story line that’s really ticking me off, and these guys are going above and beyond in dragging it out ….

…she’s driving while standing up from the wrong side of the car and Del’s going to get the blame?

Save Del!

Why is everyone assuming the oncoming car is Boo’s? It could be True’s. Or the cow judge’s. Or a hallucination.

Looks like ice cubes from one of Del’s drinks somehow got stuck on his windshield.

Yeah, that’s not Boo, Tru(e) or the cow’s car. It’s just a prelude to the big crash or run off the road that will occur in the next few weeks. I think that’s just showing Del’s current state/mood.And the differences between the color and b&w? I assumed yesterday that someone objected to Tru(e) driving while on the phone, so they changed that panel. What’s weird is today they did the same thing, but in the other version. What I mean is yesterday they changed the color version, today the b&w. So both versions had a “driving while on the phone” one day but not the other. Weird.

@JPuzzleWhiz: I’m betting more of a BOO Who?

If only she’d worn her lucky Pepsi earrings.

Del’s headlamps (thorp era term) are not on. Hence the other driver (I say it’s Boo) flashing. Boo flashing – I like that.

The car is flashing its lights because Del doesn’t have his lights on. That’s what will cause the wreck that won’t end until the middle of next week at the earliest.

I think the universal signal for “you don’t have your lights on” is to turn you lights off and then back on, not to flash your brights. I was the recipient of this signal Friday night while driving a rental car with many confusing lighting options that the Milford-era Twillmobile doesn’t have.

Why do they call her Boo?

And speaking of no-hitters, the stupid “don’t jinx it” was in effect last night during the Tigers-Angels game. I turned it on in the middle and didn’t realize the Tigers’ pitcher had one going for at least a full inning because they wouldn’t say it. They showed the pitcher’s line at some point and the announcer says something like, “6 innings, just 1 walk and 6 strikeouts” and on the screen it showed 0 for hits but OF COURSE HE COULDN’T SAY IT. It was broken up with 2 outs in the 7th, but luckily it wasn’t the announcer’s fault. Stuuuuuuuuuuuupid.

Isn’t there an episode of Andy Griffith where Barney drinks so many milkshakes he gets a chocolate buzz? If not Andy seems like I remember that from one of the old 60’s sitcoms.

The Geat Carsoni predicts the crash on Saturday to leave us in Suspense (somewhere between Milford and Central City) over the weekend. Cue up the theme song Blue (er Boo) Monday.

This is Milford so it’s Fats Domino not the inappropriate New Order version.

Some one better call the Ecnalubma (shout out to any old Bucket-teers here)

Boo or Tru will lose an arm in the upcoming crash and become an awesome golf pro. Gee, have they ever done that story line yet?

Swifti Mart? I knew the “S” was an abbreviation, but I could have sworn the second letter was “h”.

@BitsyTwill: that was sarcasm. New Order won’t exist in Milford for another 25-30 years. Their Blue Monday never mentions Blue or Monday and with all the PC nuts around their violent images would be banned. I’m like Bullwinkle. I like Violence because they smell so nice.

The driving is flashing brights because Del does not have his lights on.
