What the hey, let's have yet another King's Gambit slaughter.

and black resigned in view of 12. ... Kf8 13. Qd8#, natch.

(Of course, I should have played 11. Be3 just for extra violence, and since then he'd have had to give up the queen to avoid mate, instead of just avoiding the silly pawn move. Oh well.
