Night Owls

Still sipping the vodka. I'm going to crash and burn in a few hours. No Work tomorrow so why not get blasted. I'm on a mission tonight.

You should try Vodka Chess(TM) -- guaranteed to knock one out under an hour, especially if you're up against a strong blitz player.

Vodka chess? I'll google that. Going to scour YouTube now. Something always comes up when you do the YT Fu search.

Chess boxing is another thing to YT.

Our version was this:
http://www.caissa.com/encyclopedia/chess960.php

-Optional shot of water for your captures
-Take a shot when opponent captures
-Take a shot for each illegal move
-When in zugzswang, take a shot for each forced move you make
-Shots can optionally escalate as per standard chess scoring rules for pieces
-You are allowed to rotate the board; if the opponent misses your manoeuvre, you let him know and he pays the 'dead man's penalty'
-If you ran out of time -- you finish the bottle... watch out for accidents!

Come November we can play the US election alco-bingo.

Health warning: Neither is very good for your liver, or long-term earthly prospects; recommend to students only.

just went out into the back garden to check the wind, wow , trees are making a huge noise, also saw a very bright blue flash that im guessing could have been a power line going down

I have a big tree in front of my window. If I stop responding, I could be asleep... or the tree has claimed my soul!

I'm still up. Watching top gear Africa special. The wind is keeping me awake. So loud here.

It certainly is. Thankfully the ol' tree outside is holding up, so at least I'm grateful for that.

I'm on S2, E8 of DD. It's trying to be a court drama... with ninjas! For some reason I have an unstoppable urge to shout 'Objection'! Too much Phoenix Wright.

Daredevil binge -- here I come!

Been doing the same half way through S2.
