1: So, the marathon you're running is three days long?
2: Not quite. It's three marathons on sequential days. They're a tournament.
1: Won't everyone be too exhausted to run in the second and third race?
2: Sure, yeah. That's part of what makes it hard. The first day we have four marathons with anyone who enters. The top fifty in each race compete on the second day in two marathons of a hundred people, and the top twenty-five in each of those run in the Master Race on the third day.
1: You're calling the final marathon the "Master Race"?
2: Yeah.
1: You might want to rethink that.
Mindburst Hickocks is, minus the occasional deviation from form, a repository of ideas I have had but could not find a use for. They are free for you to take and run with. In fact, please do.
Also, we now feature assignments.

"I lost the passion for the blog. I am not built for blogging. I am built for intermittent, longer pieces, and successful blogging requires frequent, shorter pieces. YOU should have a blog. Mindburst Hickocks, that's the name of it. GO."
-Jason Michelitch
this needs no "fixing".
