there are times, when playing a tournament level game, that you become so lost in thought over the position that you literally lose awarness of everything around you, stop hearing everything but the clock ticking away your time. The board takes on life, and you feel the tensions of the various squares as if the lines of force were a physical reality and the board might warp from the power. Each and every move becomes a fencing, as you test, probe, tweak the position for the most minute advantage that will give you a winning endgame. Was chess created by the Gods? Is it an art form, sport....or just a game for social misfits?

Love how you did this photo....way cool!! Great presentation once again! Bright green really highlights the 'playing field' and brings the photo to life! Great work!

In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10

There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again.
