Congratulations!

I am taking time out from my "passionate" savoring of the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) to offer congratulations to my son, Matt, and his bride, Melanie, as they marry today. My heart swells, and my eyes overflow.


Readers who are familiar with the "Kennedy Kids" know that "big brother Matt" has grown from "A Fool Proof Plan" through "Little Capablanca".


As I have shifted to writing about Mary, Jon, and Matt in their "older" years, I guess that I owe my new daughter-in-law, Dr. Melanie, a story as well.
