We have a winner, Brandon was the first one with all the correct answers. Send me your snailer Bran, I looked and I must have lost it. Congrats :D :D
 
I'm impressed!

Edisonbird & Brandon,

I don't know who I am impressed with more, EBM for thinking of the questions or Brandon for answering!!!
 
Im cool with not getting the cigars, but I am certain that last night when I posted my answers there was only one person that posted before me and that person was the "winner". At that time he had #4 listed as the Ramones, not sonny bono (I am POSITIVE of this b/c I wrote it down b/c i was curious to see if he was right). Anyway, I go on today and somehow he now has it listed as Sony bono..........
Like i said, Im cool with not getting the smokes, I just figured I'd point this out. (I know, im a sore loser.....:mad: )
 
I got em if you want to smoke em. Send me your snailer and I will send you a consolation prize. Rare Earth performed many times at USNA way back when, that was the answer I was looking for, but Bran also listed another group, I said you could guess as many times as you wanted and he did. The organ player for Rare Earth lives right here in Ft. Myers. I didn't notice anything odd about these posts this morning, I didn't see anything after about 10 last nite, checked them at 4 this morning and Brandons was the first post. Decision still stands, but like I said I will send you some consolation smokes, PM me the snailer.:w :w
 
Smokem could be right. I edited a couple times within a period while I was searching. I wasn't paying attention or sure of what was posted during that time. If he says he posted first, then he posted first. You can go ahead and declare him the winner. No biggie. I have plenty to smoke. :w
 
Like I said Bran, my decision still stands, please send me your snailer, I have most of it, but am missing part of it.:w
