Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 02, 2024

Er, no, Gil. A “terrific mother” wouldn’t abandon her children. A “terrific mother” would be there for her daughter when the girl got unexpectedly pregnant and had an abortion. (Oh, and the idea of a 40-year-old woman suddenly becoming a star golfer is ludicrous in the extreme.)

Gil shouldn’t be blaming himself. Mimi made her own decision to get married. The traitoress can live with that now.

P1- Scrambled? Yeah. Gil’s thoughts definitely. That Pat Finley. What a reporter. The GIL mug is taking the Summer off, collecting dust on GT’s desk. C(lam) Lover better soak in the adulation. She could miss the cut this week.

P3- You’re not here to think Bethany, parading around in your little crop top. Now fix me an old fashion.

P3. No, Beth, you aren’t here to think. And I don’t want any runny eggs either.

RW, we get it !!!!!! Mimi/Emily is using her maiden name; or, is it her new married name ???? . You don’t have to bold CLOVER anymore.

P-4: “I think you’re trying to figure out how to get a share of those winnings.”

Alternate P-4: “I think I know how I got whisker-burn on my thighs.”

P4 Gil: “Now that you’ve cooked, you’re going to clean?”

P 4 (BtB): “…I think that the only thing you guys had in common, besides two stupid kids, is that you both like box…hahahaaaaaa…”

“I think you ruined that woman’s life, and now you’re working on mine.”

P 3: STFU Gil and stop bein’ such a whiny b***h

Lord knows the LPGA and other women’s sports are made up of only unmarried women who chose not to let a man dictate their actions.

I guess married heterosexual women can’t win on the LPGA?

P4: “I think you’ve got a colony of ants infesting your chin.”

How long until Beth has to return to her bar tending job? It’s in Center City, isn’t it?

Hey, that’s the mug I made Dad for Father’s Day last year! It was hard to get the letters even and straight.

Well actually that was second one I made. The first one I spelled “DAD” wrong.

P1.5 “I like scrambling your eggs, Beth.”

jun jun inma habbity cappy WHEREARE YOU

P4: “Both of you are still the same age you were 60 years ago, so she still has just as much time to pursue her dreams as she ever did!”

I’m not sure what she’s thinking now, but I’m thinking she going to be really píssed when she looks in the mirror and sees that Gil cut a circle out of her hair while she slept. And speaking of sleeping, don’t you sleep on today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Beth- You wanna know what I think?Gil_ What?Beth- I need my eggs scrambled with your sausage, right here on the table. Gil- Umm… What did you say?Beth- Never mind.

She throws the eggs at his head and storms out of the kitchen.

Does Gil get the news about Emimily when he logged into his Prodigy account, and print it out? Or did he compose a song called "Clover Wins First Championship?

At least HB moves some of his stories along, unlike Rex Morgan stories, that don’t go anywhere for weeks.

I don’t care what Beth thinks. What did Inma say about this?

Is there any possible answer to Beth’s question in P3 than NO?

And did the headline writer put Clover in boldface just to annoy Gil?

Is there … is there whiskey in these eggs?

I think you need some WHOOPIE

Good thing Gil doesn’t try to grow a full beard…goatee only option.

Looks like Gil had a rough night…but that’s how Beth likes it.

P4: “I think you need a Cleveland Steamer.”

Beth: You wanna know what I think? IDGAF. Now hurry up and eat those eggs, you’ll need all the energy you can get because I’m ready for another trip to Pound Town.
