You can read your strategy book and no one-points to Mr.X- is laughing his head off when your Queen falls directly into the path of destruction via his sneaky diagonally moving "castle". zippiknits...sometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385498014336581117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115059.post-22223901153338157912016-07-17T22:39:17.169-07:002016-07-17T22:39:17.169-07:00Oh!

The fact that it's such an ancient game is amazing, considering it's complexity.<br /><br />Email is a minefield when it comes to "tone". So true! <br /><br />And Thanks for your good wishes.

But it was hard for me to remember all the rules and moves. I'm impressed by people who know how. <br />I agree about the writing. So often writing causes misunderstandings and face to face is so much better. We always joke, you can't gage "tone" in an email.<br />Have a good Saturday.Pumpkin Delight (Kimberly)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15754292671421221960noreply@blogger.com
