Thanks for All of the Birthday Wishes!

Thank you to all my friends, students, parents and fans who wished me a Happy Birthday. I turned 34 today, to the surprise of at least two of my students who thought I was 20-something. My day was actually pretty low key except for a dinner with beer, but mom prepared a tasty strawberry cake with candles.

From the weird statistics department: I know that (at least) two of my chess students also were born on May 6! Others who share today's birthday include former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, San Francisco Giants baseball star Willie Mays, New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul, Academy Award winning actor and producer George Clooney and pioneering psychologist Sigmund Freud.

I have allowed public comments again, but I must approve a comment before it appears. My decision is final. Here are a few requirements:

1. Keep your comments on chess.
2. Please make constructive remarks, both if you agree or disagree.
3. Avoid insults, name-calling, accusations, profanity and adult language.

I would prefer that you sign your name, but this is not a requirement. That said, I am more likely to reject a negative comment from an anonymous poster.
