Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for October 10, 2017

Benny Goodman!

The Bucket isn’t exactly Carnegie Hall.

Soto breaks into a little Elton John – oooh it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes. Then he forgets the rest of the lyrics and realizes Uncle Gary was right

…and he thought “Amateur Hour” at the Post was bush league, what does “The Bucket” rank as? ;)

Uncle Gary’s not going to like this.

Swing low. Sweet chariot. Coming for to carry me home……

Two chiliburgers later, everyone’s going to regret this decision.

“There’s nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall. There’s nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall. And you take one down, and you pass it all around … and there’s nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-eight bottles of beer on the wall … … … … "

This story line is "lame! lame! lame! "

@Irish43… But these comments though!

First The Elks and now The Bucket. Rick(ey)‘s movin’ on up! I just hope they show the lyrics to this fight song. I can just imagine the praise it has for Former State Champion Coach Gil and the good times had by all in the Milford showers.

and Ric/Rick/Rickie/Ricky/Rich/Richard breaks into: Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting

or considering the local: There’s a hole in the Bucket

He breaks into “I Am Woman Hear Me Roar” and the Bucket suddenly empties out.

The Bucket may need to add a cover charge…

Maybe it’s movie night at The Bucket and they are all calling out the movie that they want to see.

The crooner croons the blues

His singing will bring tears to the entire Bucket. The cook will be weeping in his State Champion Coach Thorp Stew. The waitresses will be hugging each other as they break down in tears. And they’ll probably call me in to mop up all the damn wetness. And speaking of mops, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is ready.

In all reality , Hey kids stick around ,break curfew, Ricky will be right back for a second set featuring the greatest hits of the Vienna Boys Choir .

Ric(k) almost forgets the words until his other Uncle, Mitch Miller has him follow the bouncing ball
