I live on a boat in the Pacific. I assumed you don't walk on water. Get it now?

Since the thread has adopted a historical context in some of the posts, I have to say that I would have liked to meet Mikelom in person. I am not sure what I would expect, and that is part of the anticipation that will never be fulfilled- not in this world, at least, but perhaps in the next.

Originally posted by @huckleberryhoundI often wondered what happened to Dr Strangelove....I think most are good people in person, it sometimes the persona on here we don't like. I know for a FACT hoh isn't like his persona in the real world or he would be dead by now. 😉 I would love to meet him just to see how bad ass he is in person!!!

Originally posted by @huckleberryhoundI’ve only met 2 rhp members; @lausey and @rbmorris, both fine chaps. Lausey was kind enough to provide me with accommodation after we found ourselves on the exterior of several beverages. I’m connected via Facebook with about 25 other rhp members and I’m hoping that the next 24 months will bring opportunities for meet ups.
No, i was actually newly married when i went to America. I took my wife there. I was single during London and Dublin.
Had three drunken RHP members at my house for the second Dublin meet...good times.

Originally posted by @very-rustyI think talking to HoH would involve a bit of grunting and "harrumph"s. Maybe like talking to Winston Churchill in private.

I somehow think comparing hoh to Winston Churchill may be the biggest compliment he has ever received.

Originally posted by @very-rustyI think that if there were a meetup at which he (Trev) and I attended and we started a match, by the time we finished it my beard would be longer than Rip Van Winkles or he'd win by default as I'd likely be dead.😲🙄😉
I think Trev may swim with the sharks. 😉

Originally posted by @great-big-steesI tend to make a move against him and then go around the world on a skateboard. He's usually moved upon my return, but not always. 🙂
I am keenly aware of that. 😉
Not that I mind. Chess is a journey after all, not a race.
