bishop is a man's thing.  It can never be a woman.

"The Boris"     conquers all. Even beats The Maggie.

Only because,  The"Criminal Blair", is tooo long... and "Closet Cliff" a trifle bent.

What about our friend the bishop, who is stuck on one color his entire life? Surely he deserves some appreciation as well?
