Chess in the Midwesss...



So Ashot and I decided we will have a chess tournament to determine who is number #1 chess player in Toledo...starting tomorrow. It will continue until mid-December, and a second tourament will commence in January. The tournament will include a chess board, polished glasses, lots of water and girls to hold up score cards (we are still looking for volunteers...so don't be shy). If you'd like to lose in less than 15 moves, let us know, your skill or lack thereof will be appreciated.
Btw the two pics above are 2 of the top 8 grandmasters in the world - just out of the 2007 World Chess Championships. One on the left is Armenian, the other is a Jew. The remaining 5 of 6 players are Russians and the 8th grandmaster, who won it all is from India, which happens to be a former Soviet Bloc country, so in other words...R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

Tahir is right. Salam Mal'ekim

I don't know this anonymous is, but he means trouble. It wasn't me. I only write as K-berg.

Peace.

PS We could also use guys as cardholders. But you must be of Soviet Bloc origin (Russia, Israel, Armenia, China, India, etc...) to play. Sorry Pakistan doesn't qualify.

you are just mad that in the 80s the northern pakis and the afghans gave a beating to the russians.

The Russians lost WWI, arguably. I mean they freaking pulled out bec. they were too busy killing their tsars and having a Civil War with like 50 billion colors to, I don't know, combat the rising, evil superpower Germany.
