Name That Book!

Or is number 3 perhaps The Divine Comedy by Dante?

~just realized the "heck" pun~

I see I shall have to drop hints after all. OK.

#1 What a pot addict smokes-- well, they smoke marijuana, of course, commonly called "weed" or another name used in its heyday which was "_____"
The usuall part of the plant smoked is the "_____" Put the two together and you get a book length poem by a certain poet whose initals are W. W.

#3 Getting the heck out of Paradise. If you are "getting the heck" out of somewhere, say for an evacuation you are in "_____" from the place. Eden is correct. Now fill in the blank.

You guys went through my last list like Sherman went through Georgia! I'm going to have to start requiring the author's name as well, or something!(smilie by hamster)http://www.smileyville.net/hamster/dev.gif

#1 What a pot addict smokes
They smoke pot = "Grass" (Old hippie talk)
They smoke the "Leaves" of the plant dried ( although seeds and flower buds as well)

Ergo: Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman, surely one of the world's most tedious tomes!

#3 Getting the heck out of Paradise
You get the heck out you "flee"
Paradise = "Eden"

Ergo = Flight from Eden by Kathryn A. Graham[/FONT][/COLOR]

Right. Now let's see.

HAT TRICK! #1, #3, & #6, (although you can share #6 with Nightshade)

#2(HAR! She might, but it's not a book!)

#12--Well, OK. Actually, it's Portrait of the Artist As a Young Man by James Joyce. I think you had the book, you just weren't sure how the title ran.

Nanners for the Archer! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

DOUBLE BULLSEYE!

#3 & #11 , but share #3 with The Archer. You had the book right, just unsure of how the title ran. Good enough!

#5 & #8 are wrong.

Nanners for Nightshade, Lady of the Smiles!
:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Ooh, I've got another joke one for number 2...

"To/two arms!! To/two arms!!" ~rim shot~ ~chirp...chirp...chirp~


8. Hmm...well, it had the Cliffs of Insanity, so I suppose it couldn't hurt to guess The Princess Bride by William Goldman.

5 is Lord of the Flies

#8 is still wrong.

As for #2, actually Archer, it is a joke, but using a book tiltle for the punchline! (smilie by trinzine)http://www.smileyville.net/mellow/mf_type.gif
