Mark, y' silly thaing, now look what you've done--you've killed the blog
for three whole days, bringin' up subjects like that.  It's enough to put
a feller off his supper.  Things like that are best ignored, I'm
a-thinkin'.

James, I'll second that. I see we have a bit more security now. Pity that
we seem to need it. An don' thet beat all! Joe [born & raised in northern Appalachia]

Well, hey, Joe.  How's the Chess Cafe doing?  No, I haven't forgotten
about Postal Chess, but you kind of lost me on the 'flip' thing. Is that
a Shogi thing?

Fergus, what's the number-letter thing below the box here?  A straight
routing to File 13?

Hey, James. The Chess Cafe is doing great, they've attracted some serious
talent, and also have a major chess club meet there weekly. Wish I could
say I was doing as well. 
The flip thing is pretty much what Mike Nelson just used in 'Insane Flip
Relay Shatranj'; the flip allows the piece to capture (or, for Postal,
perform some other specified action[s] to) another piece. Flipping is what
allows a piece to go postal. (Appearance to change as necessary.)
