Honestly, I never imagined Junior would win many games, MAYBE 1, 2 if the books
were uneven.  But 3...I never would have guessed.

Junior is *excellent* at drawing.  I thought it would end +1 -6 =14 or something
around there.

Just goes to further prove, it's not the size of your worm, it's the way you
wiggle it.  :D

Yea, well, you did the first one, so you will be forever remembered!  :)

I think I will break out my old PII box, and do a match, like yours, of my own.
But I will probably do it on ICC, and schedule the match times.

At any rate, thanks for this.  It really is interesting!
