Subject: GLOBAL BOUNTY HUNTERS #86
Message: What's up team? Stinky suggested I start a new thread, so here I am. Sorry I've been so silent recently. I started a new job and have also been preoccupied with my fantasy football league which I am the commissioner of. Anyway, I'm stocked that we are over 100 now. Lets keep reaping the bounty!

Message: you can't brag about being last in a tourney until you find a way of being last without even being in a tourney. It reminds me of one of Fischer's most illogical statements of logic, after he walked out of a tournament and returned a couple of days later to find that in his absence he had forfeited a game by not being there, so he said that at the time he supposedly lost the game he had already resigned in writing from the tournament, so how can a player lose a game when he is not even in the tournament? If my memory serves me correctly his logic was accepted and he was reinstated in the tournament on his terms, but I think he later walked ou again so it all came out o.k. in the end. :))

Message: My suit is now ruined and beyond repair, so how come it still looks far better than when I sent it to you? Time to wax philosophical, As the bard once wrote, "Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, but not expressed in fancy, rich, not gaudy, for the apparel oft proclaims the man, and they in France, of the best rank and station are most select and generous, chief in that."
So now when I wear that suit it will proclaim me to be what I am, " A worn out fetter that the soul has broken and thrown away"

Anyhoo...
I recently realised that my play against the Dragon line of the Sicilian has been piss poor. I seem to be able to put myself in a position where I'm a move too slow. Can anyone link me to some good material that I can mull over?
Thanks in advancce.

stinky, there are two things I should never have done, first, I should have just lost the game. Second, I should not have been silly enough to brag about it. But you did tell me at the time you organised the match "who says you will lose?" so one of us had some degree of confidence perhaps. :)

Message: thanks for all of your support. I ammaking a great recovery...i shuld be home from the hospital
in a few weeks and recovered fully in 3 months or so. I am blessed to have dodged a bullet that
would have killed me. But the Bounty Hunters are hard to kill. I know that you thoughts and
prayers have been behind me and I want to thank you all.
ps...the disease is called guillain barre, a syndrome that leaves most paralyzed and on a
ventilator for months and takes as much as 3+ years to recover from. I am beating the odds
and am very happy to report that Ill be back fulltime pretty soon. thankyou all again.

Message: first to be serious(hard work!!)
I wish to thank the hunters for the kind comments upon my leaving the team, both those in the forum and in PM and those Ive received upon my return.. and especially to Stinky and Flyer for their constant nagging to return:))
DOK my thoughts and prayers are with you for a full and speedy recovery.
that done, I continue...
I'm sorry to report that the pending nuptials between myself and Stinky have come to nought~ I do not wish to kiss and tell~suffice it to say Im relieved to be able to smell the roses again!! aaaaah such fragrance:)) oh well! back to the single life again..
Chimane now is the time to challenge Flyer to a game, before the bewitching powers of M.girl have worn off:)) I'd let you see how its done, but my game with flyer is private because he doesnt want anyone to see the sorry mess hes in, but I for one am taking great advantage of him..aherm..of his current state..err..I mean.. well ya know what I mean..:)))))

Leo while I had no intentions to kiss and tell, that burden has been taken from these tender shoulders, as Stinky him self has alluded to it.. It was indeed his confused sexuality that led to the demise of all my hopes and dreams [sniffle] but to tell the other juicy bits..brace your self .. well it went like this.. dot dot dash dot dash dash dash dot dot dash..and dot dash then finally, dot [hope that was clear enough] Im typing this slowly for you cos I know you cant read very fast:)
Chimane, two points dear boy, 1st:- if you honestly need further explanation, you should talk to a grown up about the birds and bees.. 2nd:- your jealousy is unfounded, I would never stand in the way of you and Flyer, really you should apply the seduction tatics, I mean they work for stinky..

stinky I see you're still very much confused, you want me back, you dont want me back, you need me on the team, you dont need me on the team, you wanna visit gay bars, you dont want to visit gay bars.. your little dramas could well have been scripted for Falcons' Crest!!
