Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 05, 2013

Come on, he’s supposed to be a gymnast. Who’s in better shape than those guys?

A Chippedale?

As a redheaded stepchild of a rented mule, I take offense!!

This strip should go back to beating on senior citizens with mental disorders.

P2 Chip is trying to get a little Up the Shorts Peak.

Uhh…Mudlark fans take heart. Tip (Bar) Nunn will make the All-State Cheer Squad along with the popular Angie Sanchez. Unfortunately, Thor Pa’s Nobel Peace Prize experiment will go awry and the Larks will miss the playdowns again despite having their best talent in years.

Tip Nunn, the scourge of waitresses everywhere.P1 is some interesting artwork. Reminds me of a wallpaper pattern, like the Microsoft flying toasters.

P3, So True. Many a young man has been defeated by cheerleading (or at least by cheerleaders – the traditional ones, that is).

Defeated – Easy for Angie to say, she’s not lifting 125 lb wiggle-weights and doing the gymn stuff, too. Most of the male cheerleaders I’ve seen have got 50 lbs on Tip, and it’s all muscle.

Steve, you’ve done it again. I also wonder if Nunn is related to the former Senator from Georgia.

In all reality , when do the Troys leave the football team to become cheerleaders ?

P1 reminded me of the old TV show 20 Minute Workout, a classic combination of exercise and flirtation. If only Angie Sanchez was wearing leg warmers and tights.

….just waiting for ‘ol buzz kill, JCheezwhiz or whatever his name is, no blurt out something that is way too literal….c’mon, Cheezwhiz, it’s a comic strip for chrisssakes!Stay on the Mary Worth strip, Gilfans are known for our smart ass remarks! And we like it that way!

Finally the Tips in.

In alll reality. Fox News had a story on this AM about a Texas 300 lb all state lineman who at half time puts on his cheer leaders uniform and performs with the cheer leaders.

Bitsy – My thought too. Good call on Magritte.

whats’ he mean " I’m in " ?

Have you been in a coma since puberty hit?
