Good Neighbors?

 I live on a great street with good friends and friendly neighbors. With barely an exception Robert Frost was wrong, good fences are not needed for good neighbors. I don't think it is hard to be a good neighbor, be courteous and friendly and mind your own business. Say good morning when you pass a neighbor and everything else will fall into place. Everything was going great until last week when a neighbor posted the sign below. His property is all of 40' by 50'. Is it personal?
                     

Russian Genius

 Growing up a normal kid I played checkers, the smarter kids played chess. I believe it is an accepted fact that chess is a game for geniuses. Russia has dominated the chess world for most of the last 70 years. Many of the current world chess champions are Russian, I wonder if they use performance enhancement for chess as well?
 Ilyumzhinov, a Russian, is currently president of the International Chess Foundation (FIDE), a position he’s held since 1995, after readily defeating former world chess champion Garry Kasparov for the job. Ilyumzhinov must be a genius, correct?
  Well, Ilumzhinov claims that last year he was taken from his apartment in Moscow to an alien spaceship, where he was taken to a far away star. After a nice conversation he asked the aliens "Please bring me back", which they obviously did. He said, "they are people like us, they have the same mind and the same vision". "We talked and I now understand that we are not alone in this whole world — we are not unique".
 I think I will stick to checkers. Below is Ilyumzhinov with a possible alien?

"Fair and balanced"

You can't get away from Clinton and Trump today. Insults being hurled at each other hourly. Each not fit for office. Hard to believe one of these candidates will be the most powerful person in the world. They can learn a lot from the attached video. Being fair and honest is important not only in politics and sports but in all aspects of life. Whether you are dealing in business, your family or friends being fair and honest goes a very long way.With the stakes and dollars being so significant in politics and sports today it is rare to find someone fair and honest.Take a look at the short video below at a professional tennis match. Best tennis call I have ever seen.

My next vacation spot

They convinced me! What a great looking country. Super low prices, warm temperatures, and beautiful looking sandy beaches? Never mind the civil war, the 400,000 dead, lack of electricity and water, ISIS, and everything else evil in this world. Syria here we come! Look at the recent video, put out a couple weeks ago by Tourism Syria, it better be a great vacation because it may be your last.
