   Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: Maurice Kennefick died over the new year, 2018-2019. RIP. It was many years since I spoke to him. He gave up chess, I reckon, towards the end of the 80s, though even after that he was sometimes lured out for club games. I still regard this game, even after so many years, as the ...
 
   Jan-06-19 Maurice Kennefick (replies)
 
Domdaniel: Kennefick died over the 2018-19 New Year. Formerly one of the strongest players in Ireland, he was the first winner of the Mulcahy tournament, held in honour of E.N. Mulcahy, a former Irish champion who died in a plane crash. I played Kennefick just once, and had a freakish win, ...
 
   Jan-06-19 Anand vs J Fedorowicz, 1990 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: <NBZ> -- Thanks, NBZ. Enjoy your chortle. Apropos nothing in particular, did you know that the word 'chortle' was coined by Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland'? I once edited a magazine called Alice, so I can claim a connection. 'Chortle' requires the jamming ...

Domdaniel: <al wazir> - It's not easy to go back through past Holiday Present Hunts and discover useful information. Very few people have played regularly over the years -- even the players who are acknowledged as best, <SwitchingQuylthulg> and <MostlyAverageJoe> have now ...

Domdaniel: Wesley is a man of his word. Once again, I am impressed by his willingness to stick to commitments.
 
   Jan-04-19 G Neave vs B Sadiku, 2013 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: Moral: if you haven't encountered it before, take it seriously. Remember Miles beating Karpov with 1...a6 at Skara. Many so-called 'irregular' openings are quite playable.
 
   Dec-30-18 Robert Enders vs S H Langer, 1968
 
Domdaniel: <HMM> - Heh, well, yes. I also remembered that Chuck Berry had a hit with 'My Ding-a-ling' in the 1970s. I'm not sure which is saddest -- that the author of Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee and Teenage Wedding - among other short masterpieces - should sink to such ...

Domdaniel: This is the game I mean: Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1922

  jessicafischerqueen: heh

another rare Doggy appearance!

May-23-07  twinlark: A rare doggy? I prefer to think of myself as well done.

  jessicafischerqueen: Great to see you around these parts, mate.

How's Oz? I heard you is short of water.

Canada has tons of it.

Maybe we could make a deal? As far as I'm concerned you could have it all.

Jess of the Bears are often in the Garbage cans Around Here so Look out if you ever visit.

In the Woods. Hope your big changes are going well for you too.

<well done>? Good gravy a <real woman> only eats steaks where the cow is merely SHOWN the oven, but not actually put inside.

I mean really.

May-23-07  twinlark: Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the strain of no rain)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
Turn and face more strain of no rain
Ch-ch-Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Rain may soak me
But I can't make rain.

(with apologies to the Great Man)

Apart from going on power restrictions soon to save water, we're trading our PM in soon. Do you want do the same? Them and other neocompoops are going at bargain basement prices along with:

ch-ch-ch-ch-cheney
(turn and face the music)
ch-ch-ch-ch-cheney
(He wanted to be a richer man)
ch-ch-ch-ch-cheney
Turn and face the crime
He can never be a different man
Time will never change him
And he can't hide from time.

(Prison time that is. Hah!)

Other big stuff? Yeah...lotsa lotsa happenin'. Won't bore ya wif details which're still unfolding around th' hapless doggy.

I see the field has been swept blown like autumn leaves by your turbokibtznicking wake into the surrounding bleachers.

  Domdaniel: <Joe> Good to hear from you. I was starting to feel guilty that my, um, *duties* here had stopped me getting out and about, like I used to.

Laziness, really. I'll pop over with a word soon. Or pop over *for* a word soon.

Meanwhile, be my guest...

May-23-07  twinlark:

"duties" rhymes with "cooties", don't it? Is there a remedy?

  jessicafischerqueen: <Esteemed Wolf Descendant>

no worries, our neocon puppet is ridin' low in the polls and he has a minority government. Good luck getting rid of yours!!

I'm sure our Fearless Leader thinks he's a good man, but I have it on good authority that he's

"Living in a silent film,
Portraying Himmler's sacred realm of dream reality,
He's frightened by the total goal,
Drawing near, the ragged hole
He's sinking, in the quicksand, of his thought
And he aint, got the power, any more

Don't believe in yourself,
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release"

He really is <the great man> isn't he?

I think he's at least on par with <Dylan> as songwriter/singer/poet/intellectual.

I don't know what I'd do without him in fact.

Thanks for reminding me of him, venerable <Doggimus>

Cave Canem!!

  Domdaniel: <Jess> -- <Yeesh you're reminding me of that TERRIFYING scene in <Cronenberg's> naked lunch, and I think you know the scene-->

... and I found a chapter about Frogs in The Job, a book of interviews between William Burroughs and Daniel Odier. More later. I'll do my best to keep it clean. Hideous, but clean.

  jessicafischerqueen: Hey you guys are awake already!!

Hey <Dom>!! I left a "natural history of the film critic" for you in my forum, it's in your honor of course.

How can I still be awake if you've already been to bed and gotten up?

These "time zone" things are confusing.

Wouldn't it be easier if they just made it the "same time" everywhere at once?

Just saying.

  Domdaniel: My, my, everyone's dumping their leaders all of a sudden. There's even one of those General Election things in Ireland tomorrow. I may even vote.

Proportional voting by single transferable vote is *so* exciting. Or it would be, if anyone interesting actually ran for election.

  jessicafischerqueen: I vote <Josh Waitzkin>.
May-23-07  mack: <twinlark>

I had a friend who swore blind that one of the lyrics in Changes was 'I wanna buy a brand new lawnmower'. He was absolutely convinced. In the end I had to dig out my copy of Hunky Dory on vinyl- and even then he insisted that I 'must have some sort of rare copy'.

My god, that was one of the most boring stories ever told.

  Domdaniel: Saw that Dave from Essex geezer on the box last night, talking about the time his mate Brian Eno told him to listen to Scott Walker's 'The Electrician' ...

<Baby it's slow
When lights go low
There's no help no

He's drilling through the spiritus sanctus tonight
through the dark hip falls
all you mambos
thrill me and thrill me and kill me

If I jerk the handle
you'll die in your dreams ...>

Dave hadn't a clue what this was about, but he liked the imagery and the way-out-thereness.

  Domdaniel: Hot Dog, eh?
May-23-07  WBP: <Dom> I missed a post by you re. The Metaphysical C. a day or two ago. Just caught it. Yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head--he really creates a fascinating narrative using so many of the main and secondary figures.

Funny thing. Being as distracted as I've been (social stuff this time) and will continue to be through Sunday, when we throw our annual Memorial Day party (about 50 or so guests), I can only get online a few brief times a day. But then I have to wade through pages of posts, and if I stopped to make a remark regarding every one I wanted to remark on, I'd be posting all day! (And of course, some posts "cool off." An immediate response is needed to them in order to make the pertinent point, get the laugh, or whatever. A day or two late, and it's like the last guy to laugh at the joke!)

  jessicafischerqueen: Kind of funny we all think so highly of this <Dave> geezer, and yet this is the first time he's come up.

<Hunky Dory> is almost perfect I think. Like a novel, all the pieces fit together.

  jessicafischerqueen: A FIVE THOUSAND PAGE BOOK???

I'd call that "novel."

Heh

May-23-07  twinlark: <mack> Well, on the subject of misheard lyrics, there's always Hendrix's "'scuse me while I kiss this guy!" My favourite is Robert Palmer's "Might as well face it, you're a dick with a glove", although Nirvana's "Here we are now in containers" isn't far behind...

  Domdaniel: "Pour me out another phone
Let's call and see if your friends are home
Perhaps the strange ones in the dome
Can lend us a book we can read up alone..."

OK.

"Rosemary combed her hair and took a cabbage into town".

May-23-07  Ragh: Hey <Dom>, it appears as if the millionth post was posted a little while ago.. check out chessgames.com chessforum
May-23-07  Ragh: test
