Ramblings of the Subpatzer

The hill of chess is steep. No matter how much I study, and how hard I  try, I will not leave the foothills of chess. Yea I even walk though through the valley of the shadow of chess.

But still I play  on. I am like the weekend golfer who is always dreaming of that next plateau. And like golf where every shot counts, in chess every move counts. One bad move can cost the game.

"Like a turd in the punchbowl!" as a friend of mine used to say.

Fortunately for me there are things that are worse than losing in chess. And there are things that are better than winning at chess.

I am like the mature Boris Spassky, only without the talent or titles.

Kiss me Caissa!
