In chess you are much more knowledgeable, I just read the board and use logic.

LOL - I just wing it - sometimes well and sometimes not very well.

I play technique but mostly by my gut; hence my wildly fluctuating rating

Do we have an issue, I was joking around with the chess comment. It was more intended for ghost as he thinks he’s a chess superstar.
I don't know about a Ghost Superstar, but he is very good at the game. I learned a lot in his club when he had it. moonbus could be considered an Expert in my opinion. Good at analyzing games as is Trevor.

I been RETIRED now which is in Bold upper case letters under my name in my Profile for some time now. I was semi retired for 5 years then fully retired for 15 years. So a total of 20 years.

Now it seems like I am back to work being in Dialysis 3 days a week or I should say late after noon until around 9:00 p.m. Sitting in a chair for 4 hours isn't my idea of fun but does prolong my life. The dialysis day and the next day are mainly rest up days so don't get much done. Run errands of course but I am driving to do that and normally the better half looks after the Groceries and Banking and I just drive her. I never expected to be on dialysis in my Retirement, but such is life!!!

Enjoy every day as you don't know when something could happen to you. Don't forget to do unto the other guy before he does unto you. 😉

5. Time. Eventually we will run out of time and knowing that I have plenty of it now is a good feeling.
Yeah, me too. I just laugh at people who get road rage. I’m never in a hurry anymore, especially not driving.

If this is not personal, what is your diet like. When it comes to snacking I have about 10 different types of nuts and dried fruit ... easy to make a quick snack.
Yes, fruits and nuts, typical snack for me too.

@moonbus,

I know what you mean, I drive an Old Van and people hate to drive behind me, and I will not exceed the speed limit.

Now in Montreal or Ottawa you have no choice but to keep up with the traffic, I think the street speed signs in those places are just suggestions. 😉

Rusty, believe me, if I had three kidneys, I’d give you one. Kidney failure is no fun, as I know from an acquaintance of mine.

An old van you say? I myself drive a VW microbus, the first generation with a split screen. It’ll do about 88 km an hour on the motorway, 92 with a tailwind. Hakuna Matata.
