    P1 – Gil just got done modeling for Neon Park’s Zappa cover art Weasels Ripped My Flesh. P3 – AA doing a nice Ray Bolger imitation – “If I Only Had A Brain”! Dinner @ Gil’s tonight!

    I dunno – for a Gil Thorp, this actually is a somewhat plausible scenario. I guess the Thorps and/or the Kazes will have a frequent dining guest now.

    Sorry HooDad, didn’t mean to panic you yesterday. I got held up with a long rant on Mary Worth. I might be a late poster on Opening Day, it depends on what time I have to hit Metro to make a 1PM start. Gotta get my magic 8 ball. Maybe it knows if they’ll end up with a closer this year.

    Okay, Hunger Games and Mom On Drugs is the daily double. I don’t know if anybody had that combo, but that would be the winner. You get 2 tickets to the playdowns. Which is 2 more than Milford will get. Wait ’til next year, Gil. Now take this kid to The Bucket and fill him up.

    In p. 3, Aaaron is breaking into a song he recently heard at last Saturdays rave “I’m a little teapot……”

    In all reality , does baseball practice start Monday and does Gil call an emergency meeting of the school board and convince them that Milford HS qualifies for the federally funded school breakfast , lunch, junk food snack, and weekend pizza program to feed it’s hungry students ?

    There is probably a lot of truth to this , I am sure it is happening to many people. Much more than we are ready to admit to.

    A Quad checking for the watch he had to sell to buy some rave tickets in P1. He must be in a hurry to get to the cafeteria for his daily apple trick.

    Now Det. Gil, I believe you’ve got a couple of followup questions.

    1. Where’s Dad?

    2. How do you get money to go to all of these raves? Or is Molly, or molly, footing the bill.

    With monetary assets being spent by Mom for her little helpers, personal hygiene is a concern. Aaron has that look on his face in P2. What was it GilPa told Mimi? He’s my responsibility. Make room at the sweatshop table Jami & Keri.

    Now that Aaron is known to be chronically hungry, he looks a lot thinner. He seemed to have plenty of muscle a few weeks ago. Maybe one good meal packs on about 25 pounds.

    It might get more awkward if Ms.A Quad(e) has to go before a judge and it’s BKB’s mom, who then asks, if only there was some intervention. Ken will say that he told State Champion Coach Gil Thorp, but coach told him to ease up and stop investigating. “He basically told me to mind my P(cocks) and Qs.” Upon hearing her son mention peacocks in her courtroom, she exclaimed, “so the shower rumors at Milford High are true?”. An investigation ensued.

    So Aaron is too proud to apply for the free lunch program? Can’t he eat at Molly’s house or is she secretly poor also? (Copy/pasted my comment from 8 days ago since it applies again.)

    As a true coach, Gil responds by offering to feed him the ball.

    P-1: AQ explains while trying to figure out where his watch went.

    P-2: A few groceries, utility bills, insurance, rent, clothes, haircuts, beauty parlor appointments, doctor visits, gas and oil for the car, more insurance; yep, the money from working at the local hardware store just disappears. Mom must be on drugs.

    P-3: What a tool! No, stupid being hungry means you put food in your head. However, it’s fun to see a variation of the old coordination game where you rub your stomach with one hand and (in this case) try not to poke yourself in the eye with the other.

    Time for Gil to teach AQuad to fish.

    P3 – That is the wisest statement ever spoken. Oh wait, I mean it’s the lamest attempt to sound profound ever. And speaking of lame, here’s today’s Mopped Up Thorp:

    In typical Gil Thorp fashion, he buys the story hook, line, and sinker. Nobody cares about Mrs. Aaaa’s side of the story. Its time for some hot tar, pillow feathers and a rail to ride her out of town. Sounds like a pretty cool Rave.

    AQuad rambles on, as Gil thinks, “Why is this kid still talking? I asked him a question, and he answered it. Let’s move on.”
