I guess the best analogy for you might be disovering an old chess computer under you bed - one that you believed had mysteriously disappeared a long time ago. Always, a good reason why the husband should make the bed on the weekends. At least that is what my wife tells me ;>) >i guess you were waiting till your 10 year term as moderator here finally ended >:)) Correct - my ten year contract with ICD expired Thursday. I might miss the money but the freedom feels great. > >how did you get Roman to agree to play you? Roman used to come to the World Open every year when it was in Philadelphia. Perhaps he still does ,but I have not attended in over ten years myself. I met him there - talked to him a bit , in fact I have his autograph on the 1993 World Open Program. I doubt that he would remember me. The amazing thing about Roman is that he always seemed to have very good looking woman hanging around. If you ever met Roman you would know why I said it was amazing. but perhaps the PCA tour has it own set of groupies that followed chess players around. Too me, he always looked like a heavy Alice Cooper - you make the call Roman http://www.chessbrianwall.com/Botvinnik_files/image004.jpg http://www.chessgames.com/portraits/romandzindzichashvili.jpg Alice Cooper http://www.thealmightyguru.com/Music/AliceCooper/Images/AC-Alice.jpg http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/warner_independent/the_jacket/alice_cooper/jacketpreo.jpg For tho who don't who Alice Cooper is - he was a rock star noted for his heavy mascara look and making millions by penning such musical classics (cough) as "School's Out" School's Out by Alice Cooper Well we got no choice All the girls and boys Makin all that noise Cause they found new toys Well we can't salute ya Can't find a flag If that don't suit ya [Cooper:] That's a drag School's out for the summer School's out forever I'm bored to pieces Well we got no class And we got no principals And we got no intelligence We can't even think of a word that rhymes [Cooper:] Well we can't salute ya Can't find a flag If that don't suit ya That's a drag [CHORUS] No more pencils No more books No more teacher's Dirty looks Out for summer Out till fall We might not come Back at all School's out for summer (detention!)
