64, but you can count it if you open a new table.

        including the boundary of the playing area, sixty-five, Including also the board, if it extends beyond the playing area and is square........

Well, 64, then the whole board, then 16 squares of 4, 8 squares of 8, and that equals 89 but that cannot be right. It may help to look at a chess board...

           I think a checker board has more. Shit, I dropped my joint, now I have to start over. Wait, What?

Depends on the position.

One. Where's that joint?

A better question is, how many polygons are in a chess board?

              Holyoke Mass, has been approved by the state for a marajuana dispensary. I think I'll apply for a job as a driver, delivering to people who can't get to the dispensary.

Does everyone that plays chess drink and smoke joints?

Avatar of RonaldJosephCote

              NO;  people who guard nuclear weapons smoke a lot more.

Although strictly speaking I suppose he's not a guard and there aren't any weapons in his nuclear plant ... or ARE THERE?

             mosai; give me a warning when you throw out a zinger like that. I almost wet my pants.

Nice Spassky quote mosai.

             In the mid 70's, I was a guard, and I never had good luck with Air Force vehicles. Well one night, we got a little too high, and I flipped a truck over, and alarms went off. Someone said, cease fire, its just Cote. At my Article 15 hearing, I was just happy the doctors could save my fingers. It happened at the weapons storage area of March A.F.B. Southern Calif.
