Chess

I'm sure at some point or another we have all played, seen,or heard of chess. If you haven't... forget explaining it, if you haven't then go to your local high school and talk to a nerd, you'll hear about it in 5 minutes. Anyway, While playing chess recently, I began to feel sorry for the pawns because everyone underestimates them. Everyone isso worried about the enemy queen that they never think to kill off the pawns when, in reality, the pawns are the best things ever. Imagine if life were like chess. You never see one guy or girl facing on an entire army by him or herself in a full-front assault and winning. That crap only happens in video games and awesome movies (provided there's enough explosions between the "not enough" and "too many" ratios). In life, the pawns do all the work while the queen is actually a bloodsucking parasite that feeds on the wallets of the broke. If you have ever worked at a minimum wage job, played an entire game on the sidelines, or even been part of the majority, then you have been a pawn. But don't feel bad about it. The pawns are the most important part to any tactical strategy. After all, every party needs a meatshield.
