"And do you now begin to see why Christianity has always said that the devil is a fallen angel? That is not a mere story for the children. It is a real recognition of the fact that evil is a parasite, not an original thing. The powers which enable evil to carry on are powers given it by goodness."

Thinklings Chess Championship Game

In move 15 of their semi-final game, Blo landed an uppercut to Quaid's jaw, and that uppercut landed Quaid down on his back, down for the count.

The victory propelled Blo into the Thinklings Chess Championship Game against yours truly. It ought to be a good game.

For those who may be interested, Blo and I have got history. We've got bad blood between us. We're true chess enemies.

We usually go back-and-forth: Blo whacking me, then me whacking Blo. This time, it's for keeps.

Recent facts regarding me and Blo's chess rivalry:

- Blo just beat Bird viciously, three times in a row, on Yahoo chess two nights ago.
- Blo usually wins games against Bird when he has unlimited thinking time.
- On the other hand, Bird has beaten Blo the past two times they played over the phone, with unlimited thinking time.
- Bird's beaten Blo five times in a row in the past five family tournament championship games dating back to 2003.

This one's going to be brutal!

So, OK, for the championship we got Yanks-Red Sox, in which the rivalry is supposed to make us forget that this has happened a bajillion times before. :)

Hmm . . . maybe we should treat this like a boxing championship and have an undercard. :)

Is that a threat or a promise?
