Round One


Round One began at 1PM, two hours ago. Opening ceremony was pretty tame - no marching bands; no speech by the mayor. We got a trumpet solo of My Old Kentucky Home (at least that was I suppose it was) and a nice rendition of the Star Spangled Banner, but they let slip a great opportunity for a chess rap. And I was hoping they'd have half a dozen thoroughbreds gallop down the central aisle.
