check.....mate?


I love chess.  I love the thrill of victory and watching my opponent squirm.  Although, according to Garry Kasparvo, Russian World Chess Champion, "Women, by their nature, are not exceptional chess players: they are not great fighters."  Mr. Kasparvo, my husband would strongly disagree with you while I may not be a Chess Champion, I do adore the game filled with strategy and skill.  Furthermore, I'm a feisty one at that, and definitely go for the jugular when playing!

Truth be known, I tend to be the exception to the rule, for the most part Chess is a mans game.  Being Friday and all about the Guys, I thought we'd explore some wild chess sets!

love this made from recycled auto parts! check out the bishop....spark plugs!!!
This 3D chess set adds another layer to the game!



Caliber .223 Chess Set This amazing chess set is made from bullet shell casings.
Uniquely decorated with various cuts for different pieces. 


OK... so this one might prove Mr. Kasparvo absolutely right!
I dont' know if I could keep the pieces straight AND think strategy!
These Refraction Crystal pieces are works of art!


Have a great weekend Guys!

Friday For the Guys: Apple Watch Coming Soon??



My Husband loves his watches, and he is very particular about them. He has his work watches, his dress watches, and even watches that he only wears while doing yard work!! 

So will he be able to wear a watch that is made by Apple and works with his iPhone by the end of this year? If you believe Bloomberg’s latest report, the answer is yes.


Take a look at the concepts that are floating around out there!












According to Apple,  the watch will sync with an iPad or iPhone on the iOS software. 
Very cool! I'm just thinking I've already replaced an iPad due to damage.....how many iWatches will we be replacing? Hopefully they are durable!

Happy Friday Guys......
