Old vs Whippersnapper

 


At the chess club the other day, an elementary school player challenged me to a 1 0 game of chess.

I pointed out that, at my age, I couldn't even move that fast, let alone think that fast.

He went over to check on four players involved in bugouse chess, and listened to a discussion of duck chess.

I sat there, feeling old.

(However, later, without a clock, I checkmated that young whippersnapper.)
