Socrates was right...
Socrates was right, "The unexamined life is not worth living." Timely doses of honest self criticism/judgement may be good for the soul
but the price tag of brutal objectivity is too steep for the poor of spirit and faint of heart. Kicking your own butt for your own good ain't for
arrogant imposters or macho sissies.

Thanks for your reply. Fully appreciate your RSVP declination. For Zorba the Greek, who came bounding joyfully out of the surf and onto
the well populated afternoon beach, "Life is worth more than a fig leaf". Naked pool parties hold appeal for souls with nothing to hide.
Originally posted by Grampy Bobbynot true, not true, on the contrary, we tend to visit the forum at least every other month to see whats afloat, when we have absolutely nothing better to do.
Our enemies are indifferent to us and ignore our threads and posts. They have much better things to do with their time. Next question?
next question - is the unexamined chess game worth being played?
