Gil Talk: Yeah, so that cyber-bullying crap sure was somethin’, huh Dinty? Well, nice talking to you. Hey if you’re still around next year, maybe you can come out for basketball. It starts around, um, well I think it’s usually December, but…well I’ve got it written down here somewhere. Smell ya later, I guess.
The Kaylatronic Girlbot 3000 and the Traceematic Cyberpal stand at the ready in the halls of Milford High awaiting activation by the approach of the light loafered Liniguini Versace Green Wavey Rotini, the freshest breath of air to blow through this tank town since the departure of Mr. Bakst (seriously, that guy smelled fresh). Once their sequence is initiated, they support and confirm the splendor that is Linty Vermicelli.
Aaand that brings us back full circle to the way this basketball season began, Lindyhopscotchandsoda ViggoMortadella sharing his love for Project Runway with his gal pals. Put a SMAK-y high five bow on it, and we can forget this ever happened. This is an ending worthy of one of those Police Squad freeze frames.
My wish has come true! Lini will be back for another year! Maybe he’ll play baseball! And football! And share a summer adventure with Coach Kaz, if you catch my drift! Check it! Count it! Bonk! HRONK! SMAK!

Lini will never be seen again.
After he starts his summer job as an avant(point)-garde window dresser in Shoppe! ,
he will become a star in a vaguely successful series of tv commercials.

Every panel has a new impossible angle, especially the first one. Either the gals are talking on the floor or Gil and Lini have legs that are 5 feet tall. Speaking of floors, glad to see Steve Luhm still keeps’em slippery.

Quite the quick resolution, huh? This is the first GT arc I’ve followed from beginning to end; are they all like this?

As much as this sucked, where EVERYONE knew who the perp was on day two………it was epic compared to some in the past. Most just change to a totally different subject over night. Like Mr. Baskt heading to North Carolina….WTF was that all about?

Nick Van Exel/Jim Rome = Van Smack
Lini Verde = Van SMAK!

P1 Gil: “You could make an impact next year Lini, I hope you’ll keep working.”
Linguini Rotini Cavatelli: “Eff off Drunk-o! Your breath is wilting my lapel flower fer crissakes. I’m making an impact now. I’m starting an LBGT chapter right now in this homophobic sh*thole of a tank town. And I’m transferring to an alternate high school in New Thayer where I can study fashion design. Kareem Abdul Religiotto is just a blink away from giving me a beat down. The friggin’ green wave thought the web site accused me of being a Democrat. Milford can bite my nut boy!”

Wasn’t Mr. Bakst heading to Charleston, not North Carolina?
Anyway, nice to see Kayla’s magic levitating bracelets haven’t lost their mojo in panel 3.

Wrong Carolina. My bad. Count it. Bonk.

All these weeks with innuendos and we never get any specifics about the mystery website. Now we are off to a new storyline that promises to be equally bizarre with a mystery singer in some coffee house. Can’t wait to see how this will intertwine with the baseball/softball season.

This kind of puts last year’s summer-o’-fun golf plotline in perspective. Count it! Check it! Bonk! Hronk!
Oh, and, Smak!

Everybody: Ease up on Knoxy. This leathernecked soldier of the sea spent 13 weeks in S Carolina and a minimum of 8 weeks in N Carolina. Check it: he got Bonked in SC, and Smaked in NC. Hard to keep ‘em straight after that. Hronk! Count it! From one who knows.
Re Monday: Oh boy another musician plot. There goes Neil’s International Originality Award. I’m giving him a Pullitzer..um, no a Pullmyfinger award.

Thanks for watching my back bro……..OOHRAH. Gotta admit, we left Parris Island about a half a bubble off plumb……….

Knoxy, you need a better carpenter’s mate. Suggest Trainer Rick Scott– he has lots of experience with situations in which things list and refuse to run true. And since he only shows once or twice a year– during football– I’m pretty sure he’s available.
