Okay, I'm one to notice things not as instantly, but I noticed this just as quick as hell. Don't we all love Joseph? No? Anyway, we all know what happened to his mother, she died on Halloween. But there's a question I've been raising in my mind, and I think it's a stumper. It's kind of like what people asked about Eric's "hidden family" from South Park.

Where is his father?

Through the series, I haven't seen anything from Joseph's father, so it made me confused. I haven't watched the entire video Joseph's House!, but I don't think Mr. Hisfriendfromschool is in that episode. I can either assume he is working overseas, dead, or he and Joseph's mother are divorced (hence Joseph's attitude toward Cody).

Or I can assume that Black Yoshi is the father.

I'm not trying to be stereotypical, but here's what I think. You know how "in-hood' Black Yoshi acts and sounds? I think that when Joseph was born, he taught him the arts of his hood, hence his personality. So basically he taught his son how to be like his father. And instead of video games ("don't touch my Call of Duty or else," said Black Yoshi to Joseph when he was five), Joseph took the basketball skills (also taught by Black Yoshi himself). The reason why Joseph lives separately from him is because maybe in a movie, Joseph was taken from his father.

What do you think? Do you support or go against the theory.
