The Saga of Andrew & Theresa

2006-12-03T16:48:00.000-08:00

So we started a war at We Surrender! Theresa and Lisa were sick of surrendering to everyone and we decided to take a stand when we found a rotten egg in our mailbox. At first we laughed, but quickly our laughter turned into anger and we decided to seek revenge. Our revenge started by placing something inappropriate in Andrew's mailbox, since we assumed the egg must be from him. Andrew fired back with a letter of disguist, telling us we shot the wrong victim, and that he is innocent until proven guilty. So we did some investigating and found out Andrew was innocent, and the real criminal was not him. At this point, Andrew requested an apology show, with a set list created by him. We followed through with his request, and some how, some way, Andrew began to fall in love with Theresa. We have sent e-mails back and forth to be read on our shows (WE SURRENDER TUES @ 9 & FUNCTIONING ON IMPATIENCE THURS @ 9). The love began to spirial from there....
Theresa requested a picture of her "Teddy Bear" (aka Andrew) in a teddy bear suit.... this is what he came up with....However, Theresa has ADD and cannot be happy in one place for very long, so her new years resolution was to give Andrew up... a tough decision but one that had to be made.
