Mine is from the NOW WHAT? course: "Dynamic, brave, and quite insane!"  Hey, it looked like a good move to me......

I always feel quite bad when a man I've never met insults me. But I always deserve it!

I just love Silman's wit.  From Art of the Trade 14-Exchanging pieces "If you didn't find this, you need to 1) Learn how knights move.  2) Read a book on Tactics 101 (Seriously!  There's no shame in not knowing such things, and you should rejoice in the fact that forks are easy to learn). 3) Get a better pair of glasses.

Actually I did see this fork and it is easier to appreciate caustic insight when it's not directed at you!
