Woe is me - Bad news in chess express.

Welcome and hello to all,

Just a heads up here. There is so much going on at this end of the state in chess news. It's a wonder we aren't all just rattling and rolling. Can someone say earthquake, thunder and lightning happenings. Be sure to keep checking back for the latest in the "Woe Is Me" chess news column. There will be coverage of the good and bad in local chess news. Some say (and you know who you are) "the dark side" of chess. Yes, I will continue to cover the dark side also.

1) Much news to come

2) Earth shattering announcements to come (research happening as I type - spies in place, report on new carpeting, $75.00 was more than worth it).

3) Many events planned to come - some far out reaching the area.

4) More chess super stars to visit the area.

5) If you need chess coaching, I have plenty of ideas and contacts for you, all ages and levels.

Don't miss the latest breaking updates. For specifics feel free to leave questions in the comments or just send in an email.

Memphis Chess Club - Woe is me!

It has recently come to my attention that the "Memphis Chess Club" which formerly met at the University of Memphis, has been asked to move to another location due to something about not having club insurance and such. Certain members of the club are running rampant with their allegations as to why this has occured now after they admittedly have been meeting at the Fedex Technology building for a very long time out of compliance with the U of Memphis regulations. Another allegation recently flung about, was how former people from "years ago" with the club were causing the recent events to happen.

1) If they have known that they were out of compliance, then you are guilty of your own misconduct.

2) If former people from "years ago" are accused of being involved, then why wouldn't they have taken action "years ago"?



It is obvious that certain club members feel that they can sling about any such made up stories or allegations and everyone on the planet is suppose to believe it with no further proof or investigation. Well, as usual, let the big mouth(s), know nothing(s) - think they know it all, continue to show just how truly ignorant that they may be, a continued example of how they roll as in "years ago"!

My final advice, is to suck it up, man up, admit the truth - you were out of compliance, you were wrong, stop trying to blame others, and just move on!


Boo hoo hoo hoo!
Best to you,
Very truly yours!
