Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for July 27, 2019

Gil grew a beard.

Mr. Ballard? They look about the same age, unless Ballard’s using a ton of Grecian Formula.

The letter they wrote to Thomas “Tiki” Jansen would not have been sent in a window envelope as if it were a bill.

Ballard knows Ed from the Klan rallies.

P1, Thanks for seeing me Mr. Ballard. Whoever you are.

P2, Oh, an insurance salesman. And what does that have to do with this story?

P3, He took out an insurance policy in case he couldn’t play for Milford but, so far refuses to pay the premium.

P1 No she is Jaguan’s girl you idiot!!! And she ain’t no girl either, she is an attorney who is not licensed to practice in this state. P2 Pretty small engagement ring from the the big guy!!!

what can I help you with? Life, auto, litigation?

Baxendale’s girl??? Like my girl Friday? Does he own her?

In all reality , You’re Ed’s girl ,he’s told me all about you at the Elks Lodge . He’s very proud of you but in all reality he really can’t stand your boyfriend . Can I offer you some advice ,you might want to get some life insurance on Jackass that’s what Ed calls Jaquan .

Oh great! Yesterday in MUT I assumed that she was visiting the School Board. Thanks for ruining my continuity!

That’s some quality signage… but quite similar to WDIG’s.

Is someone going to retcon some actual injustice into this?

Why is it unjust that the kid has/had to go to school where he actually lives/d?

Is it pronounced BAL-lard or BALL-ard or bal-LARD? I prefer the third, so they can run obnoxious Menards knock-off ads. “Save big money at Ballaaaaards!”

Aha, got em! Postage due…or Elvis sings “Return to Sender” because we all know “address unknown”!

The Spirit of the Rule claim goes out the window because you sent the letter to an address within the district proving you accept his address. Now, back to 7 on 7.

P4: “oh yeah….. that’s the kid trying to scam the school district…. I’m surprised he hasn’t tried to sic some scumbag lawyer on us”

P1: Agree, Benton Quest it is!

P2: Signage looks like it came from the Kinko’s up the street

P3: How is she holding that envelope? And Jaq sure was skimpy with the diamond, very un-NBA like. Didn’t Kobi’s wife get 5 carats just for staying through the rape trial?

Why is an insurance agent mailing a letter to Tiki? Especially Hairy Hercules.

You have to see it in the colorized version of course, but Dr. Steven Kiley is sure wearing one fugly green suit. So let me guess. Dr. Kiley is the head of the School Board. Since he sent a solicitation to Tiki at his fake address, that means that they are implying that his address is legit, and he can attend Milford. Hopefully I’m wrong, because that would be stupid. Which, of course means I’m probably right.

And speaking of fugly, the good doctor’s fugly suit can be seen in today’s episode of Mopped Up Thorp. (I’m just trying to see how many times I can work fugly into conversation.)

Fugly, fugly, fugly!

I’m nobody’s “girl” meathead. Here’s a subpoena, see you in court.

…wonder if he’s related to the recently entombed Kaye Ballard of “The Mother’s In Law” fame. Boy, what a tableau of humor and insight that late ’60’s piece of crap was. Good thing she redeemed herself in later Love Boat episodes next to Dick Gautier and Artie Johnson!

TCAR, get your “butt” back to CD and greet your PA buddy! Geez Mister! ;-D

If Tiki is paying his car insurance from that Pine Trace address, it means that he technically lives there! If the window bill fits, you must acquit!
