verry well......!!!!!!!!!

Why bored and dejected?

Representing his father as a liveried servant seems a bit of an unkind cut.

Ah, finally a decent one! Much better!!

haha, I like his carpet! :D

Good! Magnus is Magnus again, and not some....crocodile! LOL

What now? 2900!!! :)

Thor is back. Oh, a deep one. Seems like I lose out on knowing everything about Carlsen. Has he read those books? Google, google. Cool stuff. Garbage. How to? What does Diaz mean with the How to?

HA HA HA HA HA HA

Is that supposed to be funny? I don't get the humour, seems a bit bland. And who is the girl?

The girl is Caissa, the goddess of chess. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ca%C3%AFssa

WC trophy in a separate shelf and rating trophy with Kasparov's face ...

His father is one kind, objective and polite person who manages Magnus. If you want to have an interview with MC then be VERY nice to him or play basketball with MC :).

I was not sure why the philosophy books are lined up there in particular Zapffe who was a Norwegian philosopher known for his somewhat negative views on human existence. Some of those views your truly agrees with.

As regards Caissa being considered the goddess of Chess is somewhat controversial as she is Italian character and Italians themselves neither invented Chess nor are very good at it. Also her depiction was a naked women self obsessed with her looks, not very worthy of Chess IMHO.

Another observation on having the Madras tiger skin as a carpet well Anand may not be a WC anymore but he still has a lot of chess to play.

As far as "what next" well he has to face the next challenger (likely to be Kramnik) and has to bear the pressure of winning every tournament as will be expected from the WC and World #1

Jose is in cruel mood. This drawing is brilliant !

Funny cartoon. Very telling Carlsen is looking away from the girl !

I find the prescence of Zapffe's book very appropriate. "What now?" indeed.

Brilliant ! xD haha..

Well maybe he could defend the title, history shows it is hard to defend the title. Look at Capablanca, Fischer, Euwe or 51 to 63 where the World Champion never won a World Championship match.

I dont see why Carlsen should be bored as soon as he's climbed out of the swimming pool

well

I have to go on record here, as it's been a few days, to say no one mentioned or questioned why the plate MC's father is holding is so large. What's under the lid?
