Bobby Fischer is Dead...No Big Loss.

Bobby Fischer died yesterday in a hospital in Iceland. He was 64. The child prodigy who took the world by storm in 1964 when he ended the Russian 100 year winning streak in international chess and became an national hero to the United States. In later years he renounced U.S. citizenship, became a reclusive nut job, went on anti-Semitic rants (strange since his mother was Jewish), spoke openly about how evil the United States was (to anyone who would listen) and praised the 9/11 attacks. Twisted doesn't even begin to cover this guy.

Goodbye Mr. Fischer, you will not be missed.
