  <p>I get a weird message when I look up the prototype of the <code>Date</code> object:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Date.prototype; // Invalid Date
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is strange; why am I not getting the object from the prototype of <code>Date</code> as expected? Furthermore, the message that it returns is a string, but <code>typeof(Date.prototype)</code> returns "object". I also find that peculiar. Why am I getting this output?</p>
