    Ah....What you need is a pick up , a boost. A reason for living.

    One of the good old GP classic jokes. It works everytime.

    A guy goes up to another guy at a Chess Tournament and says;

    "Was it you or your brother who was killed in the war?"

    The guy replies;

    "It must have been me, I don't have a brother."

    Feeling better now?

    PS:
    If you turn your TV thingy (the monitor) upside down then
    you don't need a scroll up button...Sorted!

    There are, in fact, eight different games that can result in 2. Qh4#. White can move his f-pawn one or two squares (the g-pawn must, obviously, always move two); black can move his pawn one or two squares; and white can advance his pawns in either order. Makes 2x2x2 = 8 variations.

    I love chess. It hosts the only forums in the world where pedantry is actively encouraged 😀
    I stand corrected 🙂

    And what do the variations all have in common??
    The worst possible chess play!
