Chance Macy has Gil and Marjie to give thanks to for deflating Chet’s skullduggery and giving him a comeuppance. Perhaps he can throw them a parade, but what would he call it?
On this Thanksgiving I give thanks to all my fellow snarkers whose comments brighten my day and also for the fact that Basketball will be starting soon in all realty .
P3: You know your credibility has hit rock bottom when muckraker Marty doesn’t want to hear your tips anymore. Chet feels so bad he goes home to stick his head in the oven, but found there’s a turkey there. He can’t get anything right.
Marty doesn’t want to get burned using false info, so he tells Chester to put on his Phantom Of The Opera mask and drive through the fire and get out of town.
Several comments above mentioning Heaven. First thought I had was that in panel three Chet is committing suicide by driving straight into the flames of Hell!
Marty has to feel great, now that Chet the Jet is the town pariah. What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than to take Kenny Lark’s mom to Milford Downs for a scrumptious buffet, including red and white house wines, which was the deal maker for Mrs. Lark. Just imagine the thrill and excitement of these two holding fast their $2 exacta box tickets, chomping on their Swisher Sweets and yelling like yayhoos for their ship, err, horses to come in.
Safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving to all in Snark Nation.
“The flu”, eh? So the amazing sloppy joes left out in the heat were vindicated? That’s a relief. On that note, I wish you all a food-poisoning free festival of gluttony.
…a quick time out to wish all fellow snarkers a great Thanksgiving…btw, when was the last time R & W offered a Holiday time out??? Was the only opportunity for a well-being check on the Thorp kids!
Wow, Chet has had some hideous suits, but today’s might be the worst, as you’ll see in the colorized version. And speaking of suits, it would suit you well to read today’s installment of Mopped Up Thorp.

P2 No Beard must be a good guy. If the rays of light from heaven were not enough hint.

P1, Chet seems to have a knack for making things worse.
P2, And I won’t call you “Dad” either! Now pull my finger!
P3, What universe is this? Marty Moon defending Gil? Has this ever happened? Why, it’s a Thanksgiving miracle!
Have a great Thanksgiving, fellow snarkers! And you too, Bitsy. Not being a fellow and all.

Panel 2 looks like something out a Chick tract.
Also, wouldn’t Howard (the Superintendent) report to Chet (an elected official) ?

Thanksgiving? That was like six weeks ago. Happy Thanksgiving or as some of us call it, “Thursday”.

When even Marty Moon defends Thorp… stick a fork in Ballard, he’s done.

That night, Chet was visited by Boo and two other ghosts. It didn’t change a thing.

From what I can tell, the last time the Thorps wished us Happy Thanksgiving was 2001. But they did not call time out to do so!

Also, there were two random kids in the picture too, not sure who they would have been.
