Brevity by Dan Thompson for August 14, 2017

Check for 12 eggs in the carton…

You don’t want to get rooked.

What did you expect, buying food at a Castle Rook grocery store.

Is that a Pawn shop?

Wait till he sees her ‘moves’.

The bread’s stale mate.

We always used to pay by check, but now that’s considered too square.

if the check bounces he’ll be feeling beknighted…

I come from a board down under…

I loved that group, Chessmen at Work!
