It's me, Krystal.  Normally this is where I answer questions from my K9 friends, however, for the next few months I'm letting my dad have this space so he can tell you about his book.  Take it away, dad.  Oh, for more on the book click the link below.

My name is Terry Kniess as in the guy who hit The Price Is Right Showcase on the nose -- last done in 1973!  That earned me a "double showcase!"  Oh, and you pronounce Kniess like "niece", as in 'my niece hit The Price Is Right showcase just a few weeks after I did!' But is this a simple story of incredible luck? Or is this the tale-- as so many members of the press are asserting -- of a diabolical scheme perpetrated by a family of evil geniuses?  Well, it all starts with a dog.

Cause and Effects:  The Amazing Story Surrounding the ‘Perfect Showcase Bid’ on Television’s #1 Daytime Game Show  is the tell-all story behind a win that rocked the Game Show world.  Within 48 hours after the 'Perfect Showcase Bid' episode aired the Internet was buzzing about the show being rigged.  December 18, 2008 an exact showcase bid was termed “Impossible" on MSNBC, TMZ was playing it up, and within two more weeks newspaper tabloid Globe jumped on the story.  On January 16, 2009 the unthinkable went to totally unbelievable when my niece won a showcase with some amazing coincidences, eerily reminiscent of what happened exactly one month to the day earlier. 
 
The book Cause and Effects:  The Amazing Story Surrounding the ‘Perfect Showcase Bid’ on Television’s #1 Daytime Game Show is so much more than just a behind-the-scenes story.  It’s a personal insight into a two-time Emmy award winning meteorologist and what has been his very strange ride through life.  It, at times, is a light-hearted and hilarious look at people, places, and events.  It’s also a love story and this book has something in it everybody will identify with. 
It’s a very bizarre, honest, gut-busting look into a life, and a-once-in-a-lifetime event.
 
About the author(s):
Emmy Award Winning meteorologist Terry Kniess has a combined twenty years experience in both radio and television.  During the course of his media career, Kniess worked his way up from small market radio to a top-ten television market.  Kniess parlayed his media experience into other arenas, which included working within the Las Vegas casino industry along with digital and analog electronics.  Kniess is also well respected in surveillance.  After a stint in a Casino Marketing department he was a ghost- writer for the now defunct “Casino Executive” magazine.
