I didn't notice the delay in your reply cause i was gone fishing!:) I love fishing I sit in one play from 6 am to 10 pm even if i don't catch anything all day. I had a pretty slow day when i was fishing and when i finally did hook a fish, it spit out the hook right near shore. I was kind of mad but that is how it goes. The fish was around 3-4 pounds and if was a northern pike. --- TriToss (tm) Professional 1.0 - #42 * Origin: SkyWatch - Your Astronomy Connection (1:140/118.0) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 123 CHESS Ref: EBY00008 Date: 07/23/97 From: JASON KOZEY Time: 05:33pm \/To: JIM HOLLISTER (Read 0 times) Subj: Re: chess game my move is kf4 I am putting pressure on your queen with my knight I sure hope i am printing this right.
