siggimus’s first spotting of former chess genius, current hermit/recluse of questionable sanity, bobby fischer (not pictured)
not surprisingly, the old man was accompanied by a reporter & a tv camera. wouldn’t be at all surprising to see him on the news tonight, going to the bookstore & strutting around town, regularly breaking into rants about how the jews at the cia stole the plans for his new chess clock
one can only hope journalism will relive its glory days of the summer of ’99, when siggimus, residing in latvia at the time, kept up with news of the adventures of mick jagger, gracing the island with a visit at the time, through articles with such informing headlines as www.visir.is‘s: “still no sighting of mick jagger today”
& remember: just because you’re paranoid, it doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you…
