xkcd: Think Logically

I think someone else in the chess blogosphere has mentioned xkcd before.  The latest is about chess and even a mention of a chess community on-line (see the green "mouse-roll-over" text box).

*update* - it was Robert who mentioned xkcd before.

Chess Joke Recognized

A chess joke was nominated as one of the worst jokes told at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.  Emo Philips' joke was "I like to play chess with bald men in the park although it's hard to find 32 of them."  Despite having one of the worst jokes, another one of his jokes placed 3rd in the competition - "I picked up a hitchhiker.  You've got to when you hit them."
