So I was having dinner with Garry Kasporov - Problem was, we had a checkered tablecloth and it took him two hours to pass the salt and pepper!"

He captured my antipasto (and wouldn't give it back).

he thought he checkmated my fork and didn't let me move it and eat with it.

:-)  Let me guess...  fried liver?

Maybe he was going to use the Fried Fox Pork Chop opening. But good Joke Pop.

lol...I could have sworn I saw him in time pressure racing in the Grand Prix...
