Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for December 30, 2014

“Uh, good for you, but I wanted to borrow a pencil.”

She can fight World War II all by herself!

“Um … do I need to know your ethnic background to take you to the Bucket for a frappe and a slice?”

P2- nice tear drop earring on Lipinski.

Hey, I was gone awhile, did the peacock win the state wrestling match even though it had a tatoo or did the silent field goal kicker transfer to Valley Tech?

Maybe I’m confused….

Great, but what I wanted to know is why you thought you could shoot a lay-up over that seven footer?

In all reality, Mr Lap was going to ask Why are you letting another student copy and do you have tickets for Welcome Back Bitsy tonight , maybe we can go together ?

Hey Lap, pretty inappropriate for a teacher. Get the cuffs out.

I thought the guy asking the question is our boy Coach Bobby, not the teacher. If I’m correct, maybe that’s the new plot line – romance between Poindexter and the girl who made everyone forget the Wendy Wiley scandal. If I’m wrong, and it is Mr. Lapinski responding, perhaps he can reference his own Polish heritage to put Leisl at ease.

What I was intending to ask Leisl is have you seen my daughter Tara? She went to The Bucket with Keri and Jami Thorp years ago and I haven’t seen her since.

So they’ve been in class since September but this is the first time this has come up?

It’s not a baldness epidemic. Someone put Mop’s special floor shine in the locker room shampoo.

When she was hot at the beginning of the game was it a Blitz or a sneak attack?

Can I ask you…..what shaving cream you use for that upper lip? Do you know Don Ameche?

Nice try at mindreading but I was going to ask you out tonight. Never mind…

Bobby—-“I know that Leisel, Can you put more sushi on the barbie??? Hahahaha”

Which is even more ironic since she’s Austrian, Ellisburkes…

In all reality Mates as my cousin from Down Under would say, Aussie Aussie Aussie Oye Oye Oye .

….did any of you know that kicker Brody Abro was an Aussie? Yep, he might not have looked like much, but he was very big down under…

(apologies to Benny Hill)

I hate when I get here late and all of the good comments are taken.

The WWII comments were funny but Shep Trumbo called it right. She said ‘Austrian’ not ‘Australian’.

Read today’s “IN THE BLEACHER’s” for a good one on tattoos.

Regardless of her ethnic background, I think she smells romance, and with that nose…
