Crazy Teenagers in chess and music‏

All Things Chess

Greetings,

I was attacked by a pack of crazed teenagers this weekend at the Al Ufer Memorial. You think these kids would have more respect for their elders at a memorial. But no, they just went crazy on me like the kids at a Jan & Dean concert:

(Actually, I uploaded this for my mom’s birthday today. If you are so daring, you can send her birthday wishes here: gloria.k.anderson@xcelenergy.com)

While I was beat up pretty good, I managed to save 3 of the 4 games from these little whippersnappers.
