Steve Blincoe's wife files for divorce.

It was reported today that Steve Blincoe's wife filed for divorce today claiming
irreconcilable differences.  Evidently her husband has been progressively moving
her possessions into a local storage center to make room for his chess
computers.

"There is very little room left for me," she relates.  "At first it was a funny
joke, but when I had to move into the basement I knew something was wrong here.
Then the basement began filling up with old computers and manuals and I had to
move in with my sister."

Mr. Blincoe was not understanding.  "Hey, there is only so much room.  And I
like to keep the boards displayed -- not just in their boxes stacked up you
know.  And that takes room.  I've tried to compromise, but my wife wanted me to
fill up the bathroom with chess computers before here side of the bed.  But it
gets humid in the bathroom so that just wouldn't be acceptable.  So she had to
go!"

Police had to be called when Mrs. Blincoe was collecting the last of her
possessions and was accused by her husband of theft.  "Those are my power
adapters!"  Mr. Blincoe excalimed as his wife collected her laptop computer.

"There is just no reasoning with the man!"  She said later.  "He used to say I
reminded him of the stars.  Now he says I remind him of the new Star Diamond,
whatever that means."
