Ah the sweet beauty of chess.! What is the attraction for us old silverbacks?
I think it is the joy of victory if I win. And it is the joy of sharing the love and culture of the game otherwise.
I know with chess that I can go anywhere in the world and find a game. And if I play reasonably well, I may even get some respect.
There is a saying that, "The only thing chess players have in common is chess."
That may be true, but chess is enough. Through chess I have met many wonderful people.
Many chubby, older, manly, wonderful people.
