Chess Smackdown in Appleton

June 10, 2007

My buddy was destined to look long and hard at that chess board, but it was all for nothing. He lost five games and won zero. His losses mounted in an even worse ratio than his losses back in Cairo four years ago..

But Old Roads wants to recognize our buddy as a real trooper and as a guy that has come a long ways since our rollicking debates over Koshari. On the issue of the relationship between religion and politics, we found ourselves a step closer together.. both a bit more nuanced in our positions.
