CRISPINS CRITTERS

As gars as conditions, I'm not a betting man. How about a couple good rounds of chess between friends? I have my board at home set up so I can keep track of the moves.
I like your conditions, my Friend;
A Friendly game.

Now the question arises...

How long will this game take?

A week?
A month?
A hot minute?

I still haven't found a cheap chess set.

I refuse to shop at Wally World....

I'm looking for a small, magnetic chess set....

Perhaps at my next stop for gas?

Reminds me of......

Best meal I ever had was at a truck stop way up north during a snowstorm....

Now THERE'S a story!

Forget drinkin' coffee...I got my head out the window in the wind to stay awake....
And the radio so loud....
(I swear the speakers will be fried. When I finally get home.....)

My wife is good at dissecting dreams. It's a family gift. Passed down through generations on the maternal side of her family. I think she's pretty good at it.
 

Shall we limit ourselves first game to 7-10 days due to scheduling or 2 weeks, doesn't bother me my friend. I just wish to participate. Here's what we can do ---- Brother Bill or RC pick a color.......... Don't tell us. You guess and I guess and whosoever is correct, gets white, hey we both have a 50-50 chance right? The way we use to do it is hold 2 pawns behind the back, the opponent chooses, and that was his or her color........ We are kind of divided by miles though haha.
 

Gentleman. Thank you for the medal/pin info. If anyone lost theirs (Fire theft moving divorce) Let me know, I will gladly replace them for you. I will even pay the postage.

2GF,

Glad you came through it ok.....and you managed to give someone who was deserving a good smack down and let off some serious hostility at the same time...all around win for you.

Regards + HH

Bill
 

Maybe I should keep it personal............thanks friends...............

wowzers TG, the things you have to deal with. Wife who doesn't like to spend more than a day in a row at home, and now knife wielding terrorists.
YOU are the man!
 

I've got some reading to do of recent posts and corrections to my previous posts, but thought I might relate this before I do.....

I was helping my locksmith Friend today and we went to a house to make a key for a Ford something. Took a chip key, an H-72.

Anywho,
We get there to assess the job and a little "ankle-biter" chihuahua comes running out barking a storm.
I don't think much of it. I make brief eye contact and speak to the dog. Something like, "Hey, Cujo, puppy."
I call ALL dogs Cujo.....

I turn to head to the van to start to cut the key, and "Cujo" gets brave and attacks my left calf.
Hard.
Breaks skin.
Through jeans.
That puts ole Scotty in a whole 'nother realm. Feel me?

With the resident close by, I turn to Mr. "Hit and Run" and say VERY forcefully,
"Come on back and try that again and I'll punt your a$$ across the road!"

The resident collected the lucky to still be alive rat and put him inside.

I asked if the dog had his shots current.
I was assured that they were.
I said,

"If I start foaming at the mouth, I'm coming back.
And I'm gonna bite YOU!"

Just another day, I guess....



Hope all had a great week and a better weekend ahead!

Best of Wishes,

Scott

You should go back there for a visit. Chat them up and when they aren't looking, throw an Alka seltzer in your mouth...... Then let the fun begin!!!! Haha.

OK.

I'll FIND a chess set tomorrow, even at Wally World before I commence my chores of cleaning the roof and gutters, mowing, weed whacking and blowing clippings....

I through waiting on that damned maid to show up, so it looks like I've got dishes to do, vacuuming and it's "Laundry Month" again.....:BangHead:

Soon, We'll play.

And I also like the idea of a game lasting less than a month.

Catch me on-line and in the right frame of mind, it could result in several moves in one night! :thumbsup:

Hope you have been well, my Friend!

Best,

Scott

PS.

How to choose whom is White?......:icon_scratch:

Let's have football choose. Who will win the Georgia Game this weekend?

Georgia wins, My choice of color.
Whomever they are playing, if they win, you choose.

Sound Fair?

"Fair? Haven't we been here before? I thought the Fair was over....."

My Best,

Scott

How are we different?

How are we the same?

 

Sounds fair. Although I'm a Florida Gator and in deep depression from having just lost to LSU. It was a good game, i do like Georgia and some other teams inthe SEC sounds good.
 

I think about recent events in my life and the fact in 2003 we also had patches and body armor of the Punisher....... I'm reminded of my favorite line fro the movie The Punisher. It's not about revenge........it's about Punishment. That's a broad statement for my pals!
