Crap, he didn't take my Bishop: King to b1.

Trust me, I am not going to take his Bishop. That makes all sorts of future complications I am just not willing to confront. But, what to do next? What to do next? More of that damn irritating thinking. Seriously, why do I put myself through this?
That last was a rhetorical question.

I guess when you were learning the game, you never heard the ancient sarcastic adage, "Always check. It might be mate." But at least you shoved the White King onto a file that is much to the liking of your Queen's Rook.
Exciting game! Both kings are now in mortal danger of being stripped bare in the depths of a Minnesota winter.
I almost took your Bishop. Just almost.
Though I wasn't exactly thrilled about the move I did make. If there had been an acceptable way to block your Bishop, I might have done that instead. I don't see what other choice I had on this turn...
