Do Math, Win Stuff -- Winner! (Also: Technical Difficulties)

LabKitty do something win stuff contest logo
You may have noticed LabKitty fell off the face of the Internet last week (YEAH, I'M FINE. THANKS FOR ASKING).

I experienced a double hard drive failure that crippled both primary and secondary laptops, leaving me scrambling to score a replacement off Craigslist using my old Bronze Powerbook. The one with the cracked display and the keys for most of the swear words missing and a modem that makes phone noises expecting Juno to pick up. I had to get Donny to drive me around until we found someone broadcasting an unprotected version of 802.11 still on speaking terms with MacOS, which meant I had to listen to him whine about the latest Game of Thrones still not being on Netflix. Tragic I suppose, but not nearly as tragic as LabKitty.com going postless, which troubled him, I thought, insufficiently.

Still, the alternative was elbowing through the hobos on the machines over at the public library, the keyboard equivalent of a theater floor. So I am now intimate with the trials of John Snowden, and Bionca of Tusk, the conniving Little Feet, Theon Lovejoy and Deloris Dragonborn and all the rest. Can't wait to see who's going to win the battle of five armies.

Go house Snuffelpuff.

Do Math, Win Stuff

Update: We have a winner! If you'd like to submit an answer for fun, I'll tell you if you're right but, alas, the prize has been grabbed.

My internet marketing consultant Donny recently suggested I should build blog readership synergy using rewarded interactive content. I hope that means somebody hacked Donny's email, because the last time he started talking like that we had to take him down to the Lino Lakes Urgent Care and get his noggin MRIed. Fortunately, they found nothing (zing!).

Still, I decided to have at it. The results you see before you, or will after the jump.

Translate hieroglyphics, win something. Update: WINNER!

My Internet marketing consultant Donny says people like it when your website blog has contests where people do stuff and win something. This was uncharacteristically specific for Donny, so I decided to give it a try. The results you see before you, or will after the jump.
