149

Thanks to Finn for all the kind words in yesterday's comments. You have excellent taste.

The mis-typedat prize goes to early-risin' Dan Kois, who correctly said it was the word "the" --he even gave the misspelled version ("teh") which I hadn't even considered part of the challenge. fyi: I often type "teh" but I've also misspelled it "eth" and "mutorcs."

We are coming to the end of a busy stretch at the office. I've been white-knuckling it quite a bit but giving it my best. Outside of winning the lottery or going on a lucrative crime spree, I don't see any real opportunities for amassing great wealth over the next decade or two. I guess I'll be busting my ass for 40 hours a week until I'm 100.

Unfortunately for my bowling prospects, Ma Bungle has to take an unexpected business trip on Wednesday so I need to be home early to relieve the nanny and give Baby Bungle her daily fix of love. I am still going to try to make it for some of the bowling, but I'll probably only get in one game. You may revise your bowldat guesses if you like. I'd guess a 149.

Taking the day off from official genius challenges. The person who leaves the most brilliant and original comment will get 8 points.
