CP's "Cigar 101" Newbie Pass

[Kingantz]

I'm sure everyone has noticed I've had a name change. Kingantz has been my usual handle for a long, long time, and I finally got around to getting Rod to change it (thanks Rod!!), gandmlove is actually an email address I use and just threw it in at registration not knowing I would make a nice home here. I was also saving it for...

a contest!

The first requirement in this contest is to tell me what my screen name means. I will say it's comprised of my two all time favorite authors. The second requirement is to tell me my favorite book/story from each author. I say story because one of the authors has a book with a compilation of short stories, one of which is my favorite. The first to come up with the correct answers will receive a nice little gift.

Easy contest.... :laugh:

Stephen "King", pretty obvious on that one . It's a no go on the rest

 

[kiwifruit]

David Gantz for the 2nd author?

 

[khari]

Awright, here we go. King's (given), The Lawnmower man and Judith Krantz' Scruples .

 

[SBellew]

Easy contest.... :laugh:

Man, i have searched the net for clues and run into a dead end all over the place. I did find some odd guy that goes by the handle Kingantz though. I do not think that is you though.

His site may be a bit NSFW

 

[khari]

I kinda struck out on the "author whose name ends in -antz" part also, so I went for the outrageous (Not that there's anything wrong with romance novels, mind you) answer.

 

[joshfbm]

I think Yanksfans delivery will be on 12/18.

 

[Kingantz]

Is this too hard or what?

Anyone else going to give it a try?? ???

I'll give everyone one guess at it. If after everyone has made their best guess and no winner, I'll post a hint and everyone gets a second guess. If after the second guess there's no winner, I'll post a final hint (one that I think everyone will be able to get) and have a round of third guesses.

How's that?

My apoligies! I had it stated in the original post, but edited and left it out, oops. I had originally stated for students in the pass only (including the profs), however I will open this up for all CP members just for fun.

I (or maybe someone else) will come up with another contest further on in the pass for the pass participants only.

Passing out extra hand-outs of the Pop Quiz!

I'll pass on my first guess and wait for a clue

Hey Greg, your pass your rules so don't go opening it up to the general population on my account. Of course if you insist I will throw out this:

Stephen King - The Stand
Jeffrey Gantz - Early Irish Myths and Sagas

Probably not even close but hell, worth a shot!

Carry on with your impressive pass. It's been a lot of fun to watch! :thumbs:

Stephen "King" is one correct answer so far....where the heck are all my students??? Recess? ???

Smokin' in the boy's room! Where else would they be?!

I thought Gantz had to be somewhat close........oh well.
