I have really been having the worst run of good fortune with this game. Your words were music and startled me. I didn't have to know how to succeed, simply that you thought I might lifted me. My eyes traveled too quickly, I had to force them back continually to savor every sweet word, that was, until the 7th line where you turned my mind into a prune. For I have come to the table hungry and have no atmosphere as well! (which I will explain after this move) P-Q4 ....there. I hope. So tonight, while waiting for our game to continue, I'm minding my own business writing this tremendously good friend a letter tremendously is very interesting because hardly a few days ago I never even knew about him, Then our Nanook of the North appears on the thread I frequent, a trial member just like Matt. After brief postings I receive an e-mail of the most incredible things he made of snow and Ice. I can see him, feel his feelings, and envy the most beautiful life he has in that split second I look at mere pictures, because the work would never have been done if he didn't feel this way inside. And I'm tired, ready for sleep, pull down my letter telling him how envious I think I am of his life situation a stones throw from the Arctic circle. But I check the thread and here is my friend. You will soon understand why I will lie in bed awake till sunrise after eating meat, drinking wine and watching candle light bounce around on the ceiling. For, I'm afraid I was made for his life. Kenneth Kirk, It is my pleasure to introduce you to Jon "Blondi" Sveen. Yes sheer coincidence! Message 3842894 During this chess game I have made more friends than I have made in a decade. All different, and all perfect! What a nice all around life! Just kidding about the prune; but your words sure did put me on the floor dying of laughter! Perhaps General Homer Lee can win the war after loosing every battle. A magic game on this end. More fun than a barrel of monkeys: Dave
