Is chess left or right brain?

Playing chess activates the right side of the brain, which is responsible for creativity. As chess skills grow, so does one's ability to be creative.

It appears he alerted your post, he doesn't like to hear the truth you know. 🙂

Instead of laughing and sending alerts you should be reading up on it.

It really will not be funny if you start having liver issues.

We already know the side of the brain that helps with your chess is pretty much gone.

A pal of mine got a liver transplant from a mandrill.
The ape was killed in a hit and run by a drunk driver.
Oh the irony.
The monkey died so my friend could drink.

The gooster doesn't realize how hard livers are to get!

Long waiting list, unless he gets lucky like your pal. 🙂

That's a good point, and of course the hospital is going to prioritize people without a history of liver-destroying habits when it comes to deciding who is eligible for a transplant.

A drinker would have little chance of getting a new liver.

They would have to quite for a certain period of time I would assume.

I would be quite happy to quit while I was having the transplant operation.

Interesting article, thanks.
If I need a liver transplant I will move to Gabon and wait for a mandrill to be hit by some chump DWI.

t-g...It really is not joking matter for those who need livers. I still remember the stern talk my then Doctor gave me back in 1985, still took me 7 years to quit, harder to do than say.

Your right VR. Liver disease is usually brutal and can take you down fast.
