Kibitzer's Corner
Jul-21-23  Granny O Doul: Not to be confused with Saemi Palsson, Fischer's bodyguard during the Reykjavik match.

There used to be a performing arts/cabaret sort of place called "Palsson's" on West 72nd Street. I often wondered if it was the same guy, since I had read in Darrach's book or some other that Palsson had ambitions in show business. Apparently not, alas. Maybe he could have got Fischer to do a one-man show.
