kevin86 Member since May-07-03 · Last seen May-22-13 I have been playing chess for most of my life.Due to lack of competition and other factors,I never progressed beyond the novice level. I am however a big fan of the game and its history. My favorite players are:Morphy,Lasker,Tal,Fischer,Kasparov,and Alekhine. My favorite Chess movies are:Searching For Bobby Fischer AND Knight Moves. I also liked the Columbo episode that dealt with chess.(It was called:"The Most Dangerous Game" My Favorite Movies are :GODFATHER ,The Fly,DEEP IMPACT,FIGHT CLUB, FINAL DESTINATION 3,and Friday the 13th Part VIII-Jason Takes Manhattan My favorite TV shows are CSI (all version),The SOPRANOS,FRASIER,SEINFELD,FAMILY GUY,and FRIENDS (ON DVD) In Loving Memory of Seth Coy-9/7/1989 to 7/29/2009-he came early,left far too soon.

May-22-13 I Berezovsky vs V Rusel, 1984    kevin86: Wow! move 11:white subjects his queen to attack-but a fork will regain her+ a rook. on #12,white captures a piece,again sacrificing the queen-but this time,the penalty is mate....the extra piece will win!      May-22-13 Tejada vs A Padros Simon, 1985    kevin86: Black likes to move out of the I-formation:four pieces on the g-file at 32.      May-21-13 Korchnoi vs I Krush, 2007    kevin86: Qxe4! and mate in two if white takes the queen and even a second sacifice at b1,if he doesn't.      May-21-13 V Small vs Panno, 1988   kevin86: a little change:before Nd7,move the rook to c7 to keep the pawn defended      May-20-13 H Simonian vs Lutsko, 2007    kevin86: The Hrair vs the Tortoise:part 2;the Hrair's revenge. OR Hrair cuts Igor!      May-20-13 Pilnik vs Najdorf, 1942    kevin86: everybody see white's 23rd and black's 27th? Both sides offer the queen at the sting of a mate.      May-20-13 F J Moyano Morales vs C Merlo, 1967    kevin86: Black had a choice to take the queen and be mated,or not to take and stay alive...the next move,the offer couldn't be refused! 20 g5+ and mate next! Queen sacs at right angles.      May-18-13 Staunton vs Von Der Lasa, 1853    kevin86: Staughton's pattern in this game was poor-his attack lasted TWO moves and Black's counter-attack lasted the REMAINING moves.      May-18-13 Serper vs A J Mestel, 1990    kevin86: The game goes quickly after Rg8...White plays 33 c1 and forces black to abandon the rook at g8 or be checkmated.      May-17-13 Fischer vs W Beach, 1963    kevin86: Fischer's circus of pins and double attacks. A great deal of "Beach erosion" in this one.

Mar-06-07    technical draw: <kevin86: Nobody has posted here all year. How sad! I guess I'll have to.> Reasons why: 1. It's not corn season 2. You don't lend an ear to what is said. 3. I don't want you to think I'm stalking you. 4. Only those ranked colonel and above can post here. 5. Iowa backwards is awol... Mar-07-07    kevin86: Three punny quotes related to ears (and hearing) 1"Friends,Romans,countrymen- lend me your ears" : Julius Caesar 2 "I'm all ears":H Ross Perot,1992 presidential campaign. 3 "Do you hear me now?" :Verizon commercial. ------------ If you merge Hawkeyes and Buckeyes together you get a bunch of crossed eyes from OHIOWA. Jun-29-07    kevin86: I just passed entry number 3500! Holy Cow! Jul-20-07    kevin86: I see that no one is posting here,but you all are stalking about me-my ears are burning-lol JASON LIVES!!! Jul-20-07    YouRang: I hope that a year and 2 days isn't too long of a lapse to reply to someone's post :-) <meloncio: <YouRang>< I heard that "Osco", when pronounced, is essentially as Spanish word that means "I vomit".> Yes, but not exactly. When pronoucing 'Osco', maybe it sounds like the Spanish word "asco", whose meaning is "loathing, disgust, revulsion". I like a lot this kind of funny stories. :-)> Interesting that you *sort of* confirm the "Osco" name thing, although snopes dismissed it: http://www.snopes.com/business/misx... Perhaps the name "Osco" resembles "asco", which means revulsion, but this still wasn't the (stated) reason for the failure of Osco drug stores. Either way, changing the name to Osco was a dumb idea. Jul-20-07    YouRang: Oh yes, we were discussing marketing blunders... -- The company Electrolux, a Scandinavian company that manufactures and sells vacuum cleaners, first attempted to market in the United States in the 1970s. Their chosen slogan was, "Nothing sucks like an Electrolux." -- A German consumer goods company that tried to market and sell toilet paper and other paper goods in the United States named their goods, "Krapp." -- When Pepsi tried to use its slogan, "Come Alive with Pepsi" in Japan, the translation came to mean, "Bring back your dead ancestors with Pepsi." -- Frank Perdue's chicken slogan, "It takes a strong man to make a tender chicken" was translated into Spanish as "It takes an aroused man to make a chicken affectionate." Sep-10-07    WannaBe: Well, Happy Boithday! Sep-26-07    willyfly: I am not FREE - I am affordable, reasonably priced Willy and I am guessing that the Fly you are referring to is the movie where the guy becomes part Fly while experimenting with a transporter device. FREE might be a third cousin twice removed or a second cousin thrice removed. Actually the name comes from a song - "Will he go round in circles? Will he fly high like a bird up in the sky?" (I needed to think of a name for an email account a long time ago.) As for the necktie? It just tells what kind of a guy I am. I am a croupier - that is - a dealer in a casino. So - as you can imagine I get teased a lot for the Willy name. It's all for fun. Thanks for stopping by my profile.
