She's a total brain who, at age 22 already speaks several languages, has lived abroad twice, can debate politics with the 'big boys', and who is already working on her Ph.D. She makes me feel like a dithering idiot half the time, but damn it, I beat her yesterday!<br /><br />I haven't played chess with her since she was around 12. One can only take so much. Hope you beat Lenny!Kaye Wallerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491607694389685973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-37673139504782236322011-12-06T03:52:50.686-05:002011-12-06T03:52:50.686-05:00My ex husband taught me to play a million years ag...My ex husband taught me to play a million years ago (good lord, I'm older than I thought). It took 3 games for me to get to grips with the strategy and I beat him on the 4th game. We never played again. He probably tells a different story though :) Happy practice!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540456562833941487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-60484980922305597432011-12-05T22:35:15.751-05:002011-12-05T22:35:15.751-05:00I think its interesting that you got something eas...I think its interesting that you got something easier off Amazon than from your own building. The information super highway and the information super closet. Cool.<br /><br />I played chess very intensely for a couple years with my father around 7th grade. I learned that he couldn't play after driving long distances. I used it to my advantage the last time we played. It wound up being very disastrous, and we never played again. To this day I hate the game, and really most games with other humans. I did play chess a couple times with a pseudo-foster daughter I had for a short time but only because she insisted.esbbostonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09946279220170973147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-45737686774046823482011-12-05T22:19:16.118-05:002011-12-05T22:19:16.118-05:00Use it or lose it.Use it or lose it.fmcgmccllchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184250774341700041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-39776976064463405392011-12-05T17:52:02.878-05:002011-12-05T17:52:02.878-05:00Good luck !
