Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for April 09, 2016

Baseball practice starts on Monday? How long until Tru(e) Standish destroys his passing arm and has to undergo Tommy John surgery?

This Bacon is well past its best before date, time to toss it and move on.

In p3, looks like they’re heading into the Star Trek teleporting room. Let’s hope they’re beamed out of Milford for good.

Bacon, sneaking in for an arse grab in P1. Can he duck Menzie’s ever ready elbow?

At first glance, I thought Menzie was doing a Jack Benny imitation in P2. Rochester!

Is the ghost in P3 finally coming to take Bacon and Menzie away so we can start baseball before The Kentucky Derby?

Nice shine on that floor Mop but it looks like we’ve still got to wait a while for meanwhile.

Boyz and girlz base ball season has been cancelled and we are going to have 5 months of coy banter between Max N’ Kenzie to deal with!Sam n’ Diane!Cheers….

In all reality , P3 girl showing reverse cleavage but after reading the entire strip today the Turtles song Happy Together keeps playing in my brain .

P3- R2D2 was a trash can. Nice UT backpack. Looks like our heroine will play Rugby in Rocky Top.

Cue the music. Fade to black. And Monday let’s bring in Marjie with her tape recorder for the annual coaching interview and take a trip around the bases with the starting nine.

As Tennyson wrote, “spring, when a young man’s fancy turns to being stuffed in a trash can”. But I do like Kenzie’s style

You know this story line has gone stale when you’re more fascinated by that anonymous small person in P1 than you are by Maxwell and Kenzie.

Oh, by the way. I’ve recovered from my Rugby injury. When Alice Cooper sings School’s Out, so is your luck. Se ya around matey.

MOP’s floors are as shiney as Paten-leather shoes. I can see the top of her socks.

@seismic 2: Most books today are held in a book case, like a decoration.

I wish this story had been held in a bayance.

Adios Merle! (and hopefully this story line too!).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooyUiVRR1ss&nohtml5=False

Thanks for the last few days of nothingness to waste the rest of the week. Not even a “meanwhile…”? Monday we’ll just open up at baseball practice I assume. And speaking of assuming, I assume it’s better late than never for today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

@Ellisburkes: So you can look at the hands on the face?

Question: Last season with Leisl, did anyone get to second base?

………..and they were never seen again.
