“I’m young and I want to do this. I have to live. To be locked up in my room all the time depresses me.”

Looks like dad was perpetrating a little exploitation.

Ahh, Nerd no more!

Good for the kid! He needed a chance for a real life, and took it. I doubt he forgot how to play chess, but he now knows how to play chest….

R D on March 14, 2007 at 11:30 PM

Wow Thats sounds a lot like my story in Brazil…

Except for the chess….

I suck at chess….

Once in a while something profound should transcend sarcasm, irony, and even humor.

“Every child saved with my help and the help of all the wonderful secret messengers, who today are no longer living, is the justification of my existence on this Earth, and not a title to glory,” – Irena Sendler

What this woman said is far more profound, and deserving of repeating.

Irena Sendler? A boy got laid in Brazil. I don’t see the Holocaust connection.

I’ve got to agree here. WTF are you talking about Irena?

R D on March 15, 2007 at 12:42 AM

Sao Paulo has a “…pulsating but frequently sleazy nightlife”? How cool…I’m scheduled for a business trip there next month.

Ian, will you be next to heed the call?

Kralizec on March 15, 2007 at 1:03 AM

So now his is a Chest champion?

Limerick on March 15, 2007 at 1:09 AM

No Limerick, a Chess champion. I believe at 15 he is still a “Chest Rookie”. That chest champion takes years of practice…many years…never quit practicing!

I met her in a club down in old soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola [lp version:
Coca-cola]
C-o-l-a cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said lola
L-o-l-a lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

Well Im not the worlds most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Well Im not dumb but I cant understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy wont you come home with me
Well Im not the worlds most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well thats the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
Its a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola

One summer at chess camp…

Mr. Bingley on March 15, 2007 at 6:59 AM

Chess club memberships will swell over this story and new clubs will be popping up all across America.

laelaps on March 15, 2007 at 12:34 AM

Did posts get deleted? I don’t see any posts by Irena. I’m so confused.

lorien1973 on March 15, 2007 at 10:53 AM

Ah yes, a progidy indeed.

ballz2wallz on March 15, 2007 at 11:39 AM

I spent copious amounts of time in Rio at the tender age of 20, I can attest to the young man’s fine taste in debauchery.

Alden Pyle on March 15, 2007 at 11:58 AM

Should be a requirement for all young men, a quick taste of debauchery and older woman sex–and Rio is the perfect place for it–kinda like Las Vegas but better food and great beaches.

I have my faith in humanity restored!
