Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for June 07, 2014

This is where you take her in your arms and kiss her hard, just because.

Whatcha waiting for?

My god, if the close-ups get any closer-up, we’ll soon have a panel with just a single freckle.

What a prom!! Going from bad to worse.

This is crazy, of course. How could any team be successful without players ready to step in if needed? I’d like to see LeBron have cramps again in Sunday’s game, and someone on the Miami bench tell the coach, “Sorry, I can’t take advantage of LeBron’s bad luck. I won’t go in the game.”

This line of thinking could have altered the course of sports history. Wally Pipp gets hurt, but Lou Gehrig tells Miller Huggins, “I don’t want to be in the lineup because of Wally’s misery. Sorry, I’m not your man.” The Yankees trade Gehrig to the St. Louis Browns, and he leads the Browns to six pennants.

Or that lip tattoo. Looks like MII. The roman numeral for 1002. Hmm.

Did Amy break her nose filling in at 3rd? She looks as if she took a ball to the face. (Yeah, I know…………go for it, gang. There’s your hanging curve for today’s episode.)

In all reality, Amy needs to lighten up , the things that happened which allowed her to play wouldn t be considered as causing misery by most people.

What about our misery, Amy? What about us?

Amy and Lucky are products of our society today. They put the ME in TEAM.

and the hanging curve about a ball to the face is from a guy named Woody. In P2 she’s so self centered, she’s hugging herself.

In P1, is Lucky wearing 1970s-style bell bottoms, or has he just slit his pants up to below the knees?

Okay, today’s MUT is a bit “out there”.

That lip tattoo clearly says “NINA”

I wonder what bit of misfortune happened to Lucky’s ex-girlfriend to open the door for Amy to step in.

The Sunday edition of Mopped Up Thorp is up. Not sure if I like how the story has progressed lately, seems to have morphed too far away from the Thorp characters. Just have to figure out how to end it now!

Maybe they can dump some root beer on each other to lighten the mood.

Dump the superstitious boyfriend. In Africa he’d accuse you of being a witch and that would be the end of you.
