Kwiz Numero Tres

84346 is what you get when you add up the ID numbers of which two prisoners?

Comments:
I like Jean Valjean for one of them but I'm having trouble making the second number click somewhere in the sieve I like to call a brain.
 
Hmmm....

Interesting guess, but he's not one of them.
 
Pete Rose and Pete Rose, Jr.?
 
I'm gonna guess the blues brothers, joliet jake and elwood blues
 
More funny and interesting guesses--but both wrong...
 
Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden?
 
Darryl Strawberry and Jim Leyritz?
 
No and no. I like how some people are guessing real people and some are guessing fictional characters.
 
Andy and Red?
 
Nora is correct in that I am talking about Shawshank Redemption. Zero or one of her two guesses is correct. She'll get at least half the 6 points for getting us this far. But now, she or anyone else can take another guess.
 
Andy and Tommy - the prisoner who was murdered as he confirmed Andy's story?
 
That's correct.

I think we'll go 4.5 for Nora, 1.5 for Neil H. Because I think getting the movie deserves at least 2/3 of the credit in this case. Nice job by both of you.

37927 was Andy, and 46419 was Tommy. In the movie.
 
C'mon! I've been working on this for hours! Nora, Nora, Nora.

: )
 
Darn! I missed the Kwiz! I like the "numero tres" hint, too.
 
(If it was a hint.)
 
Not a hint.

I have no specific names for each kwiz this time, so I'm just tryin' to change it up each time. What did you think it was hinting at? Oh, it hit me as I was writing that last sentence--Mexico, right?
 
I really (almost) guessed correctly?

I should probably give a speech or something! I actually only guessed it because of the comments on Kara's blog about the name of the town.
 
And my 1.5 is more than fair, I was looking at prison numbers of civil rights movement prisoners (on an election theme) - so Nora may even deserve more than 4.5...
 
It was an amazing guess by Nora.

Thanks for your honesty--you still get the 1.5...
