    Why don't you head over to Ed's shop?  There are a number of regulars who roll in around 1:00.

    Actually the mall isn't too far away from being that lol.  I think that's why he moved his shop outside of the mall and behind a subway and a gas station.

    Actually, now that I describe it, it sounds like a pretty sketchy place.  I won't lie, that area is a little rough for wear.  But the shop is safe.  Just watch out, Ed looks like a drunk.  Somebody needs to tell him to iron his shirts and comb his hair.

    He should set up a chess table at Highland Park! Later on, he could befriend the doctors and nurses working to keep him alive.Smile

    I've been there a couple of times. Alittle rough looking but nice people. Great selection of chess books. Never played there (too intimidated). Never met Ed. They do have a number of tourneys there each month...maybe it's time to go to an open/unrated one though and see had much I need to learn.
