MrB--

No. I wish I did. Far as I know it's the only really good two-person game. Backgammon loses its charm pretty fast. I didn't learn chess as a child--girls didn't. Played canasta (must've been awful, a horrible little eight-year-old insisting on playing with six decks) and then bridge, which I loved, but everyone I knew gave it up as bourgeois when I was in college.

Life's little tragedies...

Janice

I certainly did notice the chess thread and those witticisms you guys keep throwing at each other. I used to play chess all the time before my brain exploded.

So, inspired by your efforts, and partially brain-dead, I have decided to start a new sub-thread of this one called "FBN Battleship". I'll go first: E-4.

Your move.

- Jeff
