NBA statistic that proves that missing shots is sometimes just as valuable as making them. A Kobe Assist is awarded when a player misses a basket, followed by an offensive rebound, leading directly to a field goal. Generally referred to as a put-back, tip-in, or follow.

Kobe's miss (with 20 seconds on shot clock) ricocheted upward from the rim before descending back down into the hands of Howard, who quickly put the ball in the basket for the Kobe Assist.

pawsonal assistant

As we move forward in time, a significant fraction of the human population is rejecting speciesism that humans all over the world are conditioned to. As the non-speciestic movement grows, more people are adopting non-human animals and providing them shelter in their homes. Like children, non-human animals need care on a daily basis and in some cases, need someone to be available at all times. It is inevitable that the adopting human might not be able to give care at all times and will need to hire a pawsonal assistant during these times to care for their non-human animal companions.

As Maria foresees traveling once a month, she is hiring a pawsonal assistant for her best friend, Foxy.

pod person

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.

The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

dead drop

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.

"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
