Joe's 1000 post contest.

Well guys, the time has come that I've hit my 1000 post mark. Though mine is hardly as significant as the first couple, I would still like to do a contest thingy.

So here goes. In keeping with the general form, I'll ask a series of questions over the next week and assign a point value. The question will have a 24 hour duration of validity, after which all answers, correct or not, will be disregarded. The points will be tallied at the end of the contest and the winner will get a (hopefully) sweet package from yours truly.

Round 1:

This will be worth three points and it a two part deal. First, what is my occupation? I've mentioned this one before, so it shouldn't be too hard. Second, what part of my job do I enjoy the most? I will award points on the second part for several different answers, though there is only one answer that will get full points.

Ok, go ahead. This question is dead at 10:20 pm pacific time tomorrow night.

I forgot you had posted that you saw Burn After Reading, it was just a lucky guess on my part.

Same for me. I actually just looked up the movies that opened that weekend.

I'd recommend Burn After Reading. I think the acting was well done and the movie had that sort of dark humor that I really like. Some people don't like Brad Pitt, but I thought he was pretty hilarious in this movie, and John Malkovich pretty much always turns out a solid performance

Ok, moving right along. Question the third. What was the first vehicle I purchased? Note, I bought it used and it was lovingly referred to as the fire engine due to its red color and size. This one comes with a bonus point possibility if you can correctly guess the model year.

Let's see what you can come up with.

1992 Chevy Suburban

74 GM Suburban

I hate to steal the suburban guess, but it just makes sense. 89 suburban?

1994 Dodge Ram

This time I'm the one copying everyone else, but Suburban was my first thought too. I would've gone with '89 since I had one of that year, but its been guessed and we need to get some separation in the points. I'll say '94.

rusirius

Suburban for me too, but I'm gonna go with a '90

urbino

I hate to play copycat on two in a row, but I can't come up with anything better: '87 Suburban.

oooooohhhh good guess on the tahoe

A red 1962 Studebaker pickup?

Sorry guys, missed last night. Long story short: too much alcohol.

I'll pick up on the fourth question tonight.

Fourtotheflush

88 oj Simpson style ford Bronco

Ok, question four to get us back on track.

Since we're talking about firsts with the last question, what was the first cigar I ever had? The brand is sufficient, though the exact vitola will be worth a bonus point.

I'm going to guess Puros Indios, Maduro, Piramide #3.

Puros Indio maduro - Piramide #3 ..... Going with the group!

I hope that the group won't start jumping off a cliff since I am going with the group again.

I gotta stop just answering ***... I gotta do my homework!

Scrambler

Do I at least get extra points for being the first to correctly answer all these questions? You know, since everyone else is just copying me.

Prove it!

Can't???

j0z3r

lol, you damn guys know how to search too well. The remaining questions I have will be nowhere on this or any other forum. From tonight onwards you guys are gonna have to do more than use the search function. We'll hopefully have some point spread tonight as I'll be asking a question with three separate answers. Until then, the 10-way tie continues

Puros Indio maduro - Piramide #3...I've always been a lemming anyway.
