Off The Cuff

The game of chess reached a new level of competition.

The game of chess reached a new level of competition. The World Chess Federation introduced dope testing at last week's Asian Games in Doha, according to Reuters--even though the sport's top official said he had no idea how drugs could enhance chess performance. What's next? The LSTA testing for too much caffeine in traders?...And forget tickets to the Lion King for the family this holiday season. "Enron: The Musical" opened last Friday way, way off-Broadway ­ in Houston, according to the New York Times. The show features six actors in two acts playing the roles of former chief executives Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling, among others. It also features some catchy show-tune parodies including "Thank Heaven for Off The Books Deals."
