I'm not sure how long I was gone, mostly because comming back no body took hints of me being gone. Heh, I wonder if someone was playing for me or not. . . Besides that fact . . . Coming back from the depths of hell to just play chess . . . Of course I'm probarley the same maybe a little better. But now I have a clearer mind for this game. I wonder if I got better. Of course playing chess is a great oppurtunity(forgive me if I lack the way to spell words)  But winning in chess and losing are both the best things in chess . . . I hope others see that as well. Learn from chess like you will from someone more experianced in what they do.
