Congratulations to super-smart Alan S., who once again solved the Sunday Puzzle. The clue was in this part:

“Sorry, but Frank always says the truth; he isn’t going to fib– Oh! Nachos! I’m going to go eat now.”

The secret message was hidden with Fibonacci sequence, which is why there was all those extraneous characters; it was the easiest way to get things to line up right. The best way to find the message was to copy the Links of the Day™ post into Word, disabling the hypertext, and then use a combination of highlighting sections and using Word Count (looks at characters including space (but excluding carriage returns) to find the letters that corresponded with the Fibonacci sequence.
1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144 233 377 610
i i (space) n t e n d t o f i g h t
“I intend to fight”
No one seems to have found the secret message from the Links of the Day™ from June 23rd to the 27th. I said in the first one that I would not have a secret message, but if you look at the first letter of each Links of the Day™, it spells out “I lied”. Similarly, there is a secret message from the past week.
I’m not doing a puzzle today, but how many people would be interested if I did more in the future? I think they would be more like the first one with first having to solve encoded headlines.

As I mentioned earlier, I put up a profile on Match.com along with a video (Amphitryon is nice enough to host it here). I’ve put off the pursuit of love for a number of reasons (for one, I barely have enough free time to get done what I want to do as a single guy), but now I’ve finally decided to give it my all, both trying some internet methods, and, more preferably, more conventional methods. Only problem is that I’m completely clueless. I’m quite shy in person, and it’s usually had to be the woman who approached me. Well, I’m tired of waiting for serendipity, so I’m ready to put my shyness and perhaps my dignity aside to make a serious attempt here. I was just hoping that my readers, whom I assume must be very smart people (who else would read me) might have some tips. How am I going to find an intelligent woman and not some floozy? Work is a bust, because I spend all my time there stuck in a lab among other engineers. So where else do I go? What else do I do? Advice from female readers will be particularly appreciated.
I will be returning to regular humor broadcasting tomorrow, with a huge number of post planned for Wednesday, my blogiversary.
