While reading the facinating tales do you ever say to yourself:  I have no clue to what they are talking about.  Or I know that's suppose to be funny, but for the life of me I just can't figure out why?  If you have, then you've come to the right page.

This page will soon hold all the secrets to the jokes that just don't make sence to our readers.

If you'd like something explained please send an email with a brief description of your confusion and which story it pertains to, if applicable, to theothers10@yahoo.com.

Aboot
Our wonderful Junior English teacher was the best person in the world to make fun of.  (Don't worry he gave us all a hard time, he deserved it) Anyway, he grew up in the wonderful state of Washington and has a slight accent.  Instead of saying 'about' he says 'aboot'.  And poking fun of this pronunciation will stick with us until our dying days.

So is Daniel The Face or not?
Lot of requests to answer this one, especially after Dare to Dream.  But if I gave any hint to the answer, then it wouldn't be a mystery then, would it?!  Just keep following along and notice ALL the clues.  But if you must know now about the connection Daniel has with The Face you can read The Truth.

What is Death Gong 2000?
Death Gong 2000 is a ficticious computer game that the guys play.  However, that is not the real name of the game.  We all know that when little children play computer games they are the only ones who can beat the games that are made for their age groups and older players take forever to master the simplist levels.  This is the case with this game.  Its real title is The Adventures of Fuzzy Bunny and the player must manuver the cute little white rabbit past trolls and wicked flowers in order to save the little girl bunny at the end.  Now, the guys, being hooked on the game because they have yet to pass the second level, are kind of ashamed to admit they play it, and therefore call it Death Gong 2000 in order to keep their masculinity in tact.

The Finger
If ever you are reading along and someone in the story gives another 'the finger' and you say to yourself: "That was really rude, no bird flying was called for in such a situation"  may I direct your attention to the link below.  Harrison Ford is Sally's favorite actor, and upon finding this site one lovely day, the phrase has stuck. 

The Great Abyss of Sadness
The 'great abyss of sadness' is a technical term associated with... well, cleavage, coined by our favorite Junior English teacher while describing Hester Prinn of The Scarlet Letter, or was it Demi Moore's portrayal of her, or was he just ranting aboot Pamela Anderson again.  Ah, high school, those were the days.   And as all little tidbits of interesting phrases, our impresionable minds incorporated it into our vocabulary. 

GUN
If you see the word gun in a sentence underlined or in bold or with a the 'g' singled out in any way.... please visit the link below.

Story behind GUN

"Can they be in our harem?"
Again, while surfing the internet, we stumbled upon a virtual 'harem.'  Now don't worry, although SOME people think it, this in NOT a perveted concept.  A 'harem' in our terms is a ficticous realm where all the people/characters that you ever thought were 1)cute  2)sexy  3)charming   4)fun to have around   stay inorder to do your bidding.  Now, I guess you could do whatever you wanted with your 'harem', so it might end up perverted like Tonya's.   ((To visit Tonya's harem please visit the following address:

What JED stands for
Although I don't have permission to give the truth in all its blazing neon glory, Jessica has given me concent to be very vague about the origin of her nickname.  It all started back in Middle School (or Junior High for those of you who call it that).  There were these two guys, one with a last name that started with E and another with D.  Jessica, being the woman that she is, had a major crush on both of them and henceforth we, as her loving friends, teased her about it constantly.  And so she aquired the initials of her secret beaus.  Aren't we such good friends?!
 

How did Jed find out she couldn't get high on pot?
Contrary to popular belief, Jed is NOT a druggie.  She only uses joints to subdue felons and get info.  When asked about this question her only answer was 'It came to me in a dream.'  But then the statement was followed by a refernce to Rubber Cement.  So, your guess is as good as mine.  ;-)

Jessica and Sebastian... Ture Love or True Obsession leading to Stalking?
Sebastian explained his actions for us.  "Well, is quite easy.  *smirks*  I've been friends with T forever.  One day, I was going to go visit him in the mansion when I saw these 5 girls moving into the mansion.  The one with the curly brown hair, which was JED, I just couldn't keep my mind or eyes off of.  So, with the spying skills that I have learned from being a member of the police force, I followed her around for months before I got the courage to talk to her.  Even though, when I talked to her, it was by pure coincidence.  *grins*  I hope that answers your question."

Is Poopsie her real name?
The answer to this one is 'no'.  I prolly don't have concent to tell you her actual name, she dislikes when we call her by it.  'Poopsie' originated when we were trying to figure out her middle name.  One day when asking her about it, her cousin offered 'Poopsie.'  Thus the name stuck and so ends the tale.

What's up with refering to Poopsie as a lesbian?  What about Alec?
No, as Poopsie states in Mommy? she is not a lesbian.  However, when we were in highschool Poopsie and a good chum of hers Faptain aka Emily decided that men were no good and therefore became 'lesbians lovers.'  No same gender sex was EVER involved, (you perverts).  As for Alec, he is the one guy who has broken through the stereotype and stolen Poopsie's heart. Aww.

The Quote of the Year
If you've checked out our News page, I've bet you've noticed the Quote of the Year begins each one.  Every year at our New Year's Eve party, we watch a movie.  Just as the clock strikes midnight, we capture the next thing that comes out of the actor(ess) mouth as our Quote of the Year.  And sometimes they can be quite interesting.  Through out the new year we will try to use this quote in as many ways possible. 
Here are some that we remember:
  • 2004  "Thank you, Thank you. I feel fantastic now."  - Eric from 200 Cigarettes
  • 2003  "Have a look at this for a classic slide."  -Steve Irwin from Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course
  • 2002  "Bring your knees in tight."  - Trasylvanians from The Rocky Horror Picture Show
 

Sebasian's Sister, Lena - dissapearing act?
In The Thunder Rolls, we learn Sebastian Lewis has a sister, Lena.  However, in Mystery Theatre, she seems to be absent and there is no mention of her at all.  This is due to the fact that when their mother died, Sebastian and Lena went to seperate orphanages.  They didn't reunite until after she turned 18 and they were free to do so.  As Sebastian recollects his childhood, it is hard for him to place his sister in it due to the fact that she was missing out of so much of it.

The Sign
The Sign is a small piece of paper about the size of a credit card that is laminated with packing tape and on one side has the words 'Here's your sign' written on it and on the other, directions of it's use.  The credit all goes to Bill Engvall and his lovely invention because that's where we got it from.  The Sign is an award, if you will, given to those who ask obvious questions; such as "What are we having for dinner?" right after Techno tells us all that he will be ordering pizza.  Some stipulations after recieving The Sign are: 1) You can't give it away until you catch someone else asking a stupid question.  2)  If, while in possession of The Sign you are again accused of asking a stupid question, you then have to catch two people, before giving it away and so on and so forth.  At this current moment I do believe Jessica has The Sign, she has had it for at least 3 years now, and I am sorry to say that I do believe she will be in possession of it for a long, long, long long, long time.

How did Tonya get a metalic skeleton?
We aren't quite sure, but we think she was born that way.  [She was born with a lot of interesting qualities;-)  ]  Anyhow... she has had it as long as she can remember, so it has always been there.  If you want a better explanation, read Bane.

Now, if you have a question about why a situation was funny or why we call someone by certain nicknames *snicker,* fill out the form below and we'll get the explanation posted as soon as we stop laughing and can find a way to explain it that would make sence.  Thanks for your admiration and curiosity.
