Oh, I wouldn't mess with you, Liz! Your revenge is harsh, but sweet from a different perspective. No wonder that marriage didn't last. Thanks for sharing. I needed a chuckle to start my day, ease my tension. I'll be on my way in one hour, at least for the drive to the airport.

Well, I'm for a friendly competition in most games, though I don't know how to play chess. You did a good job, Liz, expressing your thoughts and feelings about the game and the competition that ensued between you and Dick (I know--fiction). He seemed like one to lord over everyone and everything. I'm thrilled he got payback with some of his medicine (hate). I wouldn't have fessed up either.
Thanks for sharnig.
Respectfully, Jan

Oh my! I do play chess but am horrible at it. I can't seem to figure out a strategy and stick to it. I'm not good at guessing what moves my opponent will make. Thank you for sharing it was interesting to read.

Chess is a strategic game and you must have made the creator proud! Though modern-day technology helped you in your tit-for-tat move. A modern day 'Queen's Gambit 'story. Love how you deflated Dick's...errr...ego!:) Another lovely revenge story. Keep them comg! Cheers!

I know all the moves, similar to Bridge in essence, one must think several moves ahead, predict your opponent's likely moves, I'm neither good at either, I might give you a good game, well done, blessings Roy

You might not be a chess champion but it seems you excel at forgery. That accomplishment might get you somewhere. I'll bet you might be able to advance to hacking and get a government job, if not a prison term. LOL

Ahhh Revenge can be sweat!!!!!!!! What a diabolical plan and even more vicious that you never fessed up. Well done as usual. Your stories make my day.

Lucky for me I am spliced I to hospital WiFi (semi - legally)-- so I can go to sleep with a chuckle on my lips! You were the cleverest
" check mate" sir Rick ever had to deal with!!!! His poor bruised ego! Bet it hurt when he sat down, since he was best at being an #ss h#le! Game/set/match to Liz!

Good show!

Hello Liz.

It's interesting to have that intra relationship rating system, but I will add one thing. Getting the email to the other half pronouncing your superiority is a chess move on its own merit. You deserve a higher ranking. Congratulations. Checkmate.

Yes, Dick really sounds like his name was fitting. Like he might have been the type to rub soap in a babies eyes, or push a kid off the carousel. Anything to be superior. LOL. Thanks for sharing.
