Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for September 02, 2016

Man, Mrs. Radley really dug her nails into True’s back. He’s bleeding through his shirt.

“And if no one puts any books into it, we can use it as a liquor cabinet.”

Um, I’m not sure, Bader. Those types of decisions are made by the school board.

Where have you gone, Tru(e) Standish,The Mudlarks turn their lonely eyes to you. (Woo-hoo-hoo!)What’s that you say, Mrs. Robinson?Jolting Tru(e) has left and gone away. (True-true-true!)

Nice to see Tru(e) keeping it in the family in P1.

Is Tru(e) visiting Grand Master Bader in P2? The bars on the window make me think so and would explain Young Master Bader’s appearance in P3. And speaking of P3 could the Young Master’s tugging hand be stuck to the side of his head?

Tru(e) replies in P3, " Sure Master Bader, but the kind of books that fuel your hobby are out. And really, now that your family has no income for the next 8 years you won’t be living there too long anyway. I’m sure the new owners will be delighted to see one of these in their yard. Maybe they’ll have a boat. It’ll make a great anchor."

And in today’s sports news, Wake only puts up 7 points but still manages to win even without a QB. Better start packing Tru(e). Sounds like they need you. #GottaBeTru(e).

Tru(e) reaching a little low with that right hand. I think Ravenswing has the right idea there. Yesterday’s MUT was great, as always.

I have a request for Have Mop, how about putting a bird’s nest inside that lending library. Once more just for old time’s sake.

“I want to be reminded that my drunk dad killed somebody every time I walk out the door.”

@ 1st Ravenswing: very good, but the Graduate is what we’re all hoping for. “Mrs. Radley, are you trying to seduce me?”

And Mrs. Radley, I miss you so badly.Girl I love you so madly.I’m feelin’ so glad just to be headin’ home, home, home (To Wake).Been battling baby birds, been bombed by their turds.Countin’ the hours til’ I get home (To Wake).

“HEY, BOO!”

“You were wonderful.”???Mrs. Boo Gotta Have It

Finishing above “HEY, BOO!” thought: then Boo comes crashing through the gym wall like the kool-aid man.

Day 147: The great wrap up. How did Wake do without True last night?

Bader will grow up to become an ALLSTATE Insurance agent. Think about it.

Hey, what do you think this is, “Mix 97.8 where we play all the hits!”? I don’t take requests. And speaking of hits, I’d appreciate if Mopped Up Thorp generated a ton of website hits today. Check out the last bird’s nest appearance that is just a coincidence, has nothing to do with Gilfan79, no siree.

Hey, how come nobody ridiculed me for my typo in yesterday’s MUT? Just noticed it said “she was muching on her favorite dessert…” Fixed it.

@ Ellisburkes: I always wanted the original SNL cast to do:“Hey, Reverend Jones, your friend’s cool.”“My fiend’s Kool Aid.”@ MOP: R&W are hung up on “To Kill a Mockingbird” but MUT concentrates on “The Birds”. You should do a cameo tomorrow ala Hitchcock.P-4: Tomorrow’s Milford News Headline: District decision deems Del’s digs dubious destination for designated distiction, duh!
