Fearless Leaders!
…greetings!...salutations!...valedictorians!...
I'm certain that all you sickeningly cool, hedonistic, NON-NERDY college "students" did not notice that my hero died a couple of weeks ago.
Bobby Fischer (1942-2008), chess champion of the world 1972.
USA! USA! - crushed the RUSSIAN COMMIES!
Some very important quotes from the master:
Fellow Grandmaster Pal Benko: "Bobby, you're paranoid!"
Bobby Fischer: "Paranoids are usually right."
PB: "Bobby, you need to see a psychiatrist."
BF: "A shrink should pay me o be allowed to study my brain!"
A fan after getting BF's autograph: "Will you give me chess lessons?"
BF: "For your first lesson, I want you to study the Encyclopedia of chess openings from start to finish, including the footnotes. For you second lesson [said a smiling, but serious BF] I want you to do it again."
-My name is Bobby-the other one, still alive, not as insane as BF.
