ALFIE: I just got a call from the auditors! Our spreadsheets are a total mess!
JIMBO: I’m on it

JIMBO [[on the phone]]: Hey, 35! How are ya? It’s Jimbo. How’s life? How’re the fractions? They grow up so fast, huh? They’ll be integers before you know it. Listen, remember last April? We put you in that ledger that went national?

JIMBO: Well, we’re in a bit of a bind. Some yahoo threw in a rookie and how our columns don’t quite balance. …yeah, it was 31. I didn’t want to say anything, he’s still prime and all. But it’s a bit of a fiasco.

JIMBO: Listen, ‘5. You think you could do me a solid on this? We’d put you right up front on a major invoice. Yeah. Unit Price. You’d be a multiplier. BIG job. That’s why I called you. Thanks, ‘5. You’re a pro. I’ll dial you in. See you in Excel.

JIMBO: It’s all about who you know

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

May 8, 2026 by David Malki !

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.
