I love "Persuasion"!!!!

And I think it's so cool that the family hobby is being passed along too!!!!!! (Chess)

Dad taught Dan to play and they used to sit around and do that for hours, until the day Dan whupped Dad, then Dad wouldn't play anymore -- so Dan taught me... I've never won.

I used to take my kids to the library for their chess too -- they had four tables with chess sets all ready for a game, which we'd do all at once. I don't think there is a single one of 'em who didn't whup me in the game.

I've never won a game, but do enjoy playing it.

OH! Just remembered who I was able to win against, but I don't think it counts when they LET you win. ha!

Do I get to ask when is popcorn day?
