I’m starting to have serious doubts about the old strategy of trying to get control of the center of the board - particularly pushing KP and QP out as far as you can.

Yea that part is probably something I have interpreted wrong long ago. But I have always done it to try and crowd the other side while giving my self Lebensraum. But I see the folly.I don't think "as far as you can" is necessarily a good idea or ever considered good strategy. Center, yes - beyond that, depends on the position and your development. Eventually, pushing them is good but not necessarily right out of the gate.

Something tells me he was just buttering you up.
Haven't been on chess for a while. I am on day 10 of a bronchitis attack. Still not feeling well. As soon as I feel better, I will hit you up.

Good game. Hard to tell which way that game was going to go until I got your Queen.Good game @St. Chris. I can’t believe I put my Queen in a corner.
I’ve gotten better about not giving her up to obvious double attacks but I wasn’t expecting to just not have a safe place to go with her. She has more options than any other piece so I just wasn’t even thinking about it. But I need to start lolGood game. Hard to tell which way that game was going to go until I got your Queen.
Nah, I knew it was likely going to happen that way. I had my plan of attack but didn’t chart a plan for my king. I couldn’t go the other way or I would have had no attack. Good game.Sorry Zack. I hate to win on you moving your king into checkmate. Good game, you had me scrambling.
