The word 'umm' comes to mind. However, so does the name Sauce. The reasoning is just ... odd, so don't ask.

I won't. It's not Sauce, though.

Is it Mark?

Harvey Danger has an album called King James Bible I believe.

Does Kaboodle have anything to do with kaboodle.com?

The first part is right, but the second isn't.

Nirvana II???

The only downer I can see is from SC and Nirvana is obviously a band...admittedly this is a stretch but at least I'm trying here

Good guess, but not the right one. This Downer isn't from South Carolina.

My capacity for stumping people seems to be exceeding even morm's, so here are some rather telling hints, much as it pains me.

For the first two clues, look in people's Locations. For the last, look at people's names.

Hmmm, I know this is probably completely wrong, but my guess is Morm.

I HAVE IT!!!

Kitanna

Kit (nickname) and Kaboodle

Doing the Charleston (SC) on the flagpole though I'm not sure how Harvey Danger applies but I'm sure it's either the danger of dancing on a flag pole or a reference to the band that alludes me.

Hah! Flagpole Sitta is one of Harvey Danger's more famous songs, Morm. If that isn't it, I'm completely stumped.

Yay! It is indeed Kitanna and yes, Harvey Danger is in reference to Flagpole Sitta.

You may take a turn at torturing people now, morm.

This clue is a bit different than my normal or for that matter different than I've ever seen a clue but it still should be fun.

Find the Simpson's parody of the trampoline gag to find me

D'oh. Not being a Simpsons viewer I suspect I have very little chance of understanding this. But when you say Simpsons MLD-Groundskeeper-Willie leaps to mind.

This is the credited response. Homer takes a trampoline to a Grand Canyon type area and dumps the trampoline over the canyon and the trampoline bounces back up and pummels Homer into the ground. The actually change the animation style too. It's a good parody.

Have at it Valier.

I'm thinking that the 'from beyond' part might be something to do with Heaven but I still cannot figure it out.

You guys really need a hint? It is really simple.... look at it again....there is no trick, it is straight forward. I'll wait a little long before I give you a hint....I may not even be able to give one without giving it away...

Sometimes simple and straight forward just isn't specific enough.

*whimpers* I've searched the memberlist for people with names and/or PTs having to do with presents or gifts. I got nothin'. */whimpers*

Hmm... I'm not sure if this is cryptic or not. We'll see.

Have at it!
