[[The Headline Bugle]]
BUGLE: EARTH’S GRAVITY RELENTLESS. Crushing Force Affects All Life, Systems on Planet.

[[TOM is reading the Bugle.]]

[[TOM, astonished, looks at a COW]]

[[He watches the cow float over his head.]]

[[The COW, TOM, and his chair all float into the air.]]

[[They float higher.]]

[[TOM, his chair, and the COW drift away over an unnamed city’s rooftops.]]

BUGLE: CORRECTION: A statement in yesterday’s Bugle regarding gravity was found to be incorrect. The Bugle regrets the error. CORRECTION: Tuesday’s Bugle incorrectly identified the governor of Iowa as Terry Barnstad. The correct spelling is Branstad.

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

Last year, I participated in Genius Northwest, a gaming competition inspired by the Korean gameshow The Genius and its ilk.

It’s a reality show without the cameras — a 3-day, all-inclusive weekend retreat structured around a series of challenges and puzzles, in which personalities and dealmaking matter as much as playing games.

It’s truly a remarkable thing. I came in dead last in the competition, but I still had a great time participating.

The event is held annually in the Pacific Northwest (hence the name) and applications are now open to participate in the 2026 competition!

Learn more — and apply — at GeniusNW.com.
