  • Introduction

    Jim had a wonderfully wry sense of humor. He was so funny that hundreds of times in the middle of a chess match I would laugh out loud and say, I've got to write that down. For years I collected these scraps of paper and put them in a book for his birthday. It was called OUT OF CONTEXT - THE WIT AND WISDOM OF JAMES G. BLANCHARD. Amazingly people never read it once. They would go back and read it again because it was that funny.
