Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for November 13, 2010

Wow, is it just me or does it look like Gil has put on some serious weight. I think one of those lines on his forehead states “inflate to 250 lbs.”

Could it be that Gil is due for a tongue lashing or spanking administered by the good Dr. Pearl? Mimi can watch.

Is it me, or is Gil starting to look more like Alec Baldwin?

The return of the $80… Martha goes postal… Cody’s lawyer slaps a suit on Gil… Marty Moon breaks story about the park…

We’ve always needed a Sunday strip!

Dr. Pearl was a reasonable person back when she dyed her hair black. Since she let the true gray come back she has been a witch. Dr. Pearl may be calling Gil in to help her dye her hair.

“Ohh, Gil! I just LOVE coming to this little coffee shop with our personalized coffee mugs!”

That’s the Teacher’s Lounge. Those are Gil and Mimi’s lost kids in the background. They live in the Milford High Teacher’s Lounge, and are fed old game scores. Is that a bracelet Mimi’s wearing, or an old set of lower dentures?

The real question is why are Gil & Mimi having coffee in the library? – and why is the kid in the background eating a book?

(…and interesting move by Whigham to use the mugs for the friendly reminder that Gil is supposed to have something resembling a nuclear family.)

The only thing you could see in the teachers lounge when I was in high school was cigarette smoke.

and what were you doing in the teachers lounge, Wally?
