THE DEITIES

(BTW, the allusion-illusion of Parr and Innes as
"gods" has kept me laughing for 2 days now!) -- Rynd-Dowd

Dear Phil,

Now, let's see. Rynd-Dowd has/have returned
from his/their medication sessions. He/they laughed
that we might be considered gods. On the other hand,
NMnot Taylor Kingston, the A-rated player who told us
that he was 2300+ ELO, quotes that unimpeachable
source Bernard Levin that whom the mad would destroy,
they first make gods.

Sounds acceptable to me. The ratpackers rightly
think of us as gods, and they would destroy us. Our
job is to zap them further with our bolts of lightning.

Many years back I wrote a book on Viktors "Onkel
Vik" Pupols, a colorful chessmaster from the Pacific
Northwest. Yasser Seirawan wrote an intro noting that
that Vik believed in attacking from move one. One of the
stories involved Vik's rival Jim McCormick who derisively
called him "the Deity" or simply "Deity."

At first Vik took exception to the evident
sarcasm, but a bit later, he decided, "After all,
there are worse things than god that they can call you."

Right, Phil. Rynd-Dowd may not yet accept our
divinity, though I believe we may conclude that NMnot
has been visited sufficiently with the boils to believe in Us.

Now that Rynd-Dowd is/are back in shape, I
expect you to do your Bentley Drummell act. If you
injure him/them as I once did, he/they will forge your
name somewhere else. So hop to it.

Yes, but before the endgame they also placed the middlegame.

It would keep me laughing too.


But the nameless dork who can't write his own name since he is paranoid,
plus the dork who can because he is insensible, do not understand that the
reference is to /who/ would be destroyed by such obsessionals.

As a Celt, I am as egalitarian as the broad meadow, and need not think any
man more than a man, but not hold any man less than it either.

This is apparently news to the Carolinas and California, who have not quite
groked the fullness of jr's citation.

It is only amusing to note that those who would comment on the Innes Pledge
cannot, as Sir Lawrence H. Parr points out, actually do as they say. Instead
they stay fixated, negatively, since that is all they got at the moment, to
the Star of their imaginings, and man, do they hate any light at all!@ Even
very ordinary light.
