Good MORNING, everyone!!
How's about a good game of chess?
On-line.
Against a computer that draws a colored line on the board for every move it contemplates.
And does it so fast it looks like aurora borealis overtaking the playing surface.

C'mon. Tulip, take a break from the dancing digits and get cerebral over here.
'Face? You, too. This isn't a "men only" gig, ya know. Refreshingly, the queens used in THIS game don't talk with a lisp.

WHOA!
That's the first time I ever played chess and had a real idea of what my move has done to the rest of the game.
My two oldest grandsons will really like this site. One of them is in serious competition. The other beat the computer when he was nine years old.
