Again, another contrived media conversation, at least one that would not happen in these parts. High Schools here never comment on potential disciplinary matters, which are handled internally without comment to the media about the specific impact on a student or students who are involved.
Will someone please explain to me what was so controversial about her comment and why this chucklehead talking to Gil GAFs so much about it? If anything, it’s Moon’s mouth that’s controversial.
Maybe Rickshaws parents will call HvB. Then she will be able to get away with anything and the school board will back down and shake like a scared chihuahua
“What about the kid who punched his coach in the stomach?”“I served weekends in the National Guard to protect his right to punch guys with permed mullets.”
So what about that exchange from yesterday? What did that have to do with anything? And what about the students who assaulted the coach? HELLO?! Anyone?
Gilbot 9000 has been pretty self-righteous this week, lecturing Luke, Coach Hernandez and now the reporter asking another stupid, inappropriate question.
yea, though I disagree with what you are saying, with my life I will defend your right to say it. Oh, and in most Shi’a controlled countries Inma would be flogged for participating in a male sport.
Henry – This is for you. I give up. Your Gil Thorp comic strip is no longer understandable. I have tried since you took over — to no avail. You should only have 1-2 story lines going at once. I have no problem with the nature of the story lines — it is fine to make the strip more socially relevant. But when one can’t easily follow the stories, doesn’t remember who the characters without going back in time, etc., etc., etc., then it just doesn’t make sense to keep reading. This is sad for me because I have read the comic strip faithfully since. the mid 1960’s. Please understand that the strip is not a novel – where someone can sit down over a relatively short period of time and digest the many subplots. I hope that you make some changes in your approach, because right now, to be frank, it has become incomprehensible.
What is even more sad about your approach is that you are failing in your apparent mission. My guess is that you are attempting to bring certain issues to the forefront so as to help people broaden their minds – a worth mission. Instead, the difficulties in understanding the strip either frustrates or turns off those that you are trying to reach. I fully expect that you have an audience that applauds you in what you are doing and your approach, but reaching only the like-minded does not accomplish your mission.
Why are they asking Gil about this? Shouldn’t they be grilling Coach Hernandez about his propensity for punching parents? And speaking of punching, I’m punching out for today now that the day’s Mopped Up Thorp is complete.

Hey man, oh leave me alone you know
Hey man, oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place
Hey man, my schooldays insane
Hey man, my work’s down the drain
Hey man, well she’s a total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but she then she
Oh don’t lean on me man, ‘cause you can’t afford the ticket
I’m back on Suffragette City.

P-1: We learn Milford is so small, it fits in a spotlight.
P-2: Gil will not endanger his Fit Bit time piece by suspending students from it.
P-3: The dementia sets in as Gil has a flashback to the ’50’s.
