Good Morning; Coffee and a Little Chess

I was browsing Reddit.com, enjoying a cup of coffee this morning, when a link sent me to a Chess Variants website.  On this website, there are over 100 types of variant chess games programmed into simple Java applets.  The computer A.I. isn't incredibly intelligent, but neither am I with only a half cup of coffee.

Try out Bughouse Chess, in particular.  When you capture an enemy piece, you can then place it anywhere on a second game board.  But the computer can do the same!  It gave me a headache, but a fun one!
