Stories and chess

Greetings,

New tires, brakes and cables decorate the mountain bike for winter rain and mud circular momentum. The little odometer reads 1960 miles. What's another year? Spin the wheels.

We've been renewing and enjoying 2-hour full body massages at a professional place downtown. 16 bones. They walk on your back and clean your ears.

What?

"I don't have a hearing problem anymore. Now I have a listening problem."
"What a pity. Is it genetic?"
"Probably. I'm always looking for an excuse to be lazy."

Currently reading "Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman," 24 short stories by Haruki Murakami, the author of "Kafka on the Shore." Strong, insightful and amazing.

We mentioned the excellent book, "The History of Chess," by Shenk in MK 28 and play at www.uchess.com, linked below. Check it out (ha!) if you are so inclined. There are many players of various levels. In 1-10 minute blitz games, time looms large. Your move.

Peace.

Uchess
