In chessy news, in the 2024 Saint Louis Rapid & Blitz after two days MVL, Nepo and “Puer” are in a three-way tie. Of the other seven players, only Fabi won his game against Pragg. Today my guy Wesley So is up against Hikaru Nakamura.

Hey Fathers!  How about a clerical Guayabera shirt for the hot summer days? (They have regular ones, too.)  I had an email from them that they have refreshed their inventory and also have clerical polos.

    Can you post the direct link to your Amazon affiliate account? I cannot save it when I go through your website. I can go through your website link, but to be honest when I’m ordering at 2AM for work…brain not at peak efficiency.

  2. The link to my affiliate code with amazon is always at the top of the right side bar.

    For the US Amazon it is HERE

    Otherwise: I think this more generic code will work:

    HERE

    Once you enter, Amazon will “remember” how you got there (i.e., you used my link). For that session, I will be credited. If you stop and close down and start another session, please go back in with my link!
