Having a Cold

Filed Under Observations 

Whenever I have a cold - which nowadays isn’t that often - I find myself doing two things; first I curse modern medicine for not having found a cure to the simplest of deceases diseases one would think. Second, I pity myself and start dreaming of all the things I’ll do as soon as I’m well again.

So my days right now are filled with a lot of TV. It’s so boring also to not even have the strength or focus to develop something on one of my projects. SIDENOTE: Rowan Atkinson now on TV. He’s gone from being absolutely annoying as lead character in some TV-shows in the 80’s to now becoming a sidekick in made for TV movies such as the one on right now; maybe baby. Boring beyond belief.

A really cool thing though is Magnus Carlsen currently in runner-up position in Morelia-Linares. Chessbase has the latest on that of course. Go Magnus, Go!

Chess… Well, here’s a mystery for you. With the almighty internet being so big and wide with pages and sites on pretty much anything you’d think there’d be a chess site out there for those who are a little interested, such as myself. But no, there’s only ChessBase. Not that they’re bad or anything, it’s just so puny with one source only. I mean there must be at least 10,000,000 sites on gardening, one’d think there’d be at least a couple of sites on chess out there.

    Because a common cold is only a minor disease, you will find there it will not leave many deceased ;-) Just trying to help.
    And aren’t there a gazillion pages about chess on the internet? I play every now and then and in my experience there are many. Maybe not so many good ones perhaps…

    ok ok, diseases. I stand corrected. :)

    There are many chess pages indeed. One or two are updated more than once a week. If you know of any other than chessbase.com that are updated on a regular basis, be sure to let me know. I’ve been looking for an alternative to CB for quite a while.
