I Walk in Good Company

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 7 OF 7 ·  Later Kibitzing> Feb-25-13    TheFocus: Have really slowed down my posting since 7,400. Feb-26-13    TheAlchemist: I don't have any witty rebuttals, so I'll just stick with hello. Feb-26-13    TheFocus: Hello. Thanks for dropping by! Mar-07-13    TheFocus: Nasty fall last night. Hurt my thigh, arm and thumb. Nothing broken but my pride. Getting old sucks when you don't heal as quickly as you did when younger. Mar-07-13    WannaBe: Nothing a shot of wchotch wouldn't/couldn't fix, maybe two shots. Mar-07-13    WannaBe: But three shots would cause you to type funny words. Mar-08-13    TheFocus: Post 7,500. In recognition, the <CG> admins sent me a gift coupon to Radio Shack. I guess they don't cough up the big dough until you get to 10,000. Mar-08-13    WannaBe: You need 1,000,000,000 posts to get $25 to StarBux Koffey. Mar-08-13    TheFocus: Well then. Only 999,992,500 more posts to go. Easily, I should make that by 2014. Starbux Koffey, here we come. Mar-08-13    TheFocus: Lately I have been drinking a lot of ginger ale. Of course, I dilute it with Maker's Mark so that it is drinkable. Mar-09-13    OhioChessFan: http://qz.com/54762/makers-mark-lea... Apr-26-13    TheFocus: Nominated <Spassky - Korchnoi Candidates Final Match> and <Hastings 1977/78>. Added dates and rounds. Apr-29-13    TheFocus: This post is 7,750. Can we make 10,000 by year's end? Stay tuned. Apr-30-13    TheFocus: Did a little Wikipedia editing today for a friend. Nice to add to the collective. May-02-13    TheFocus: So I finally get my work schedule changed so that I am off on Saturday and Sunday. First thing I do is call up a friend of mine to see if he has any weekend work in entertainment security. There's a concert this weekend. I will be working in the pit as a bouncer. Free concert and paid in cash. Sometimes I will be working in nightclubs. Nothing like getting paid to watch pretty girls dance. Best of all is when those girls use your body as if pole dancing. It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. It's all about getting to the magic $1,000,000 mark if you know what I mean. May-02-13    TheFocus: So now I work 2 full-time jobs and 2 part-time jobs. May-03-13    TheFocus: This will be my first weekend off in the last year. I think I will sleep in late. A 55 hour vacation. May-03-13    TheFocus: Not doing the bouncer job this weekend because I have gout in my hand. Hurts, oh yeah! May-03-13    TheFocus: Hope to get my weight under 200 pounds by Monday. That will be a 10 pound loss in a week. May-03-13    TheFocus: 7,800th post. Ho hum. May-06-13    Phony Benoni: I ran across the dates and games for London 1900, and had just submitted a couple of games when I noticed you had started Game Collection: 1900 London. Would you like the information, or should I continue? (I'm calling it the City Club Masters/Amateurs; there were other tournaments at London in 1900.) May-06-13    TheFocus: <Phony> I need to check again, but I believe that the games and dates are in <The Field>. Why don't you continue. I am swamped with other tournaments right now. May-08-13    TheFocus: Finally got all the games entered for <Ostende-B 1907> entered, but 109 games have to be submitted. May-10-13    TheFocus: 7,850 posts. <Shrugs> Ho hum. May-14-13    TheFocus: Don't you hate finding some of your posts were deleted overnight. You can't remember them all, yet you know nothing offensive was posted. Hmmm.
