But, of course, thanks to awesomeness of my calc professor, you had to work massive algebra and calculus problems to find the next checkpoint. And, naturally, it was over not just Los Angeles, but all of LA County.
Not a single person in the class (about 90) won.

Travel to various checkpoints using only your SUV.
Checkpoint 2^nth-1: Divide the increase in the stock price of SCO by the number of lines of non-GPL'd SCO code in the current Linux kernel.
If quotient is positive, go to the nearest topless bar.
If quotient is negative, go to the nearest topless bar.
If quotient is imaginary, get out of Darl McBride's wet dreams and go to the nearest topless bar.
On a Divide by Zero exception, pat yourself on the back and go to the nearest topless bar.
(Programmer's note: while we recognize that the GO TO statement is considered ill-structured and obsolete, we also appreciate that geeks understand legacy code.)
