Selfish pride is empty pride and it quickly fades away leaving a bitter taste. Do something good that makes a difference and that will make your heart smile.
I used to play Chess with my dad. He would always beat the sock off me. One day, (I think I was around 12) I beat him. I was so excited jumped around yelling the same thing Calvin did. Dad never play Chess with me again. What a let down winning was.
Boy SUSAN, if you remember Peggy Lee, you must be older than dirt, or else you grew up with her like I did. My dad thought she was the “bees knees”! LOL!

Me thinks Calvin checkers rules are closely related to Calvin Ball rules – made up as you go. The main rule being, Calvin wins.
