c'mon...... wasn't that bad of a post.....

Nope, not a bad question. I'm just not sure that many people on this site have a lot of experience with the sort of conditions that you describe. Personally, I ride pavement OR gravel/dirt. I rarely mix the two.
But if I had to, I'd try something with smaller knobbies, but a somewhat wide casing. I'm a fan of Continental tires. Maybe check out their Double Fighter II series. I've never used them, but they look like they might fit the bill.
