Jan-08-19 Domdaniel chessforum    Domdaniel: Blank Reg: "They said there was no future - well, this is it."      Jan-06-19 Kibitzer's Café    Domdaniel: Haaarry Neeeeds a Brutish Empire... https://youtu.be/ZioiHctAnac      Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977    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    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    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 ...      Jan-06-19 chessgames.com chessforum    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 ...      Jan-05-19 Wesley So    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    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 ...      Dec-30-18 T Gelashvili vs T Khmiadashvili, 2001    Domdaniel: This is the game I mean: Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1922

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 212 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jul-16-07    jessicafischerqueen: Oh oh <Dom> just got back and we are already tempting him to <new lows> Will we ever learn? I mean not by force, etc. No letters, please <Insane Olde Batte> Jul-16-07    jessicafischerqueen: Heh. Stupid bees.. Jul-16-07    Domdaniel: Careful. ManBee might hear you. And as for bees, could you wiggle your posterior in a way that means "the flowers are ten minutes north-east of here"? Not that I wouldn't like to see you try, o singing-and-dancing Jess. Jul-16-07    Domdaniel: "Oh, a bee is a jolly companion Whether African, Killer, or Bumble A bee is a pal Who'll boost your morale And back you thru rough and thru tumble..." Jul-16-07    Domdaniel: Anyone know why the most-visited forum race seems to have vanished from the statistics page? Did I miss something? Was there a scandal? Jul-16-07    jessicafischerqueen: Yes, there was a HUGE HONKING SCANDAL caused by me, of course. The <spamming wars> took an ugly turn that was all my fault, so instead of banning about seven premium members, <CG.com> just eliminated the category instead. BTW, I'm still "Number Two." Heh Jul-16-07    mack: If you say 'Pete Townshend' whilst holding your tongue, it sounds like 'Bee Thousand'. I discovered this through, er, research. Jul-16-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Chess Classics> actually wrote a very fine poem about the incident, it's in his forum I think about a page back or so. Well worth looking for. Regards, Batchimeg PS I rented a "sports movie" instead of a horror, and I know how much you love "sports" <Dom>. I'll be sure to post an unecessarily long and technical report here after I watch it. Hey! <sports, slugs>... You don't like things that start with the letter <s>!!! You're a raging <essist>!! I'm sorry, but I could never have lunch with a <semiologist>. Or a <seismologist> for that matter. Hmmm... you may be "on to something here." Or hould I ay "on to omething here" Jul-16-07    jessicafischerqueen: <mack> well discovered! Who says <science> is dead? BTW, shouldn't that pedophilic old geezer be dead by now? Sigh. Well, I guess I can forgive him anything due to his writing <Baba O'Reilly>, I suppose. Come back Pete! All is forgiven! FORGIVENFORGIVENFORGIVENFORGIVEN... You are forgiiiiiiiiiiiiiven... You're all forgiven!!! (oh yes and <A Quick one While He's Away>), of course. Jul-16-07    mack: It's an odd boy who doesn't like sport. Jul-16-07    mack: <jess> It wasn't my research, mind... 'Here's a song off Bee Thousand. D'you know if you hold your tongue and say 'Pete Townshend' it sounds like Bee Thousand? Here try it...' http://matadorbb.bway.net/archive/i... Jul-17-07    Eyal: <<Chess Classics> actually wrote a very fine poem about the incident, it's in his forum I think about a page back or so.> In fact, it's in Tactic101 chessforum. Jul-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: g'day, g'day well thanks for the Bee music and the <tactic> correction you guys. Where's the boss? Jess of the <what's all this then> division Jul-17-07    WannaBe: <jessicafischerqueen> Well, in that case, can you guess my favourite music group?? Answer: <Bee> Gees! Stayin' Alive, Stayin' Alive... Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Stayin' Aaaaalive! See, now you can't get that song out of your heads now... =) Jul-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Heh I left an "important note" for you in <Bill's> forum, <MannBee> Jul-17-07    Domdaniel: Please note that it's only those words (slugs, sports, stenographers, scuba-divers) where the initial 's' is followed by a consonant that cause the problem. If the 's' is followed by a vowel (Silurian, semiotic, sex) there's nothing to worry about. Essist, moi? Not even an Essentialist. Jul-17-07    Domdaniel: <mack> Is that 'while holding your tongue' or 'while literally holding your tongue'? Could people hold one another's tongues? Don't try this at home, kids. Jul-17-07    mack: <Could people hold one another's tongues?> Quite honestly, I have no idea. Jul-17-07    Domdaniel: <Batchimeg> Sports vs Horror movie ... and the difference is ... ? Jul-17-07    WannaBe: They use ketchups in horror movies. Jul-17-07    mack: <Dom> How's yer volcano? Jul-18-07    Eyal: <But I don't actually mind what the first move is, and I don't think it makes much difference.> Ah, but if we play 1.e4 we're most likely to see the Ruy, based on Timmerperson's record, which would spoil your own perverse record of never playing it. You wouldn't want that, would you? Jul-18-07    jessicafischerqueen: Yes, never speak with <Spaniards> as well. A <Spaniel> bit me on the head when I was a toddler (true story). Plus, and I keep mentioning this, <Timmerman> is merely a sock puppet for <Jan Timman> so if I were you guys I'd be researching <Timman's> repetoire. Just trying to be helpful. (I voted for a4, c4, and something else I think) Jul-18-07    Domdaniel: <Eyal> Never too late to learn. And as you've seen I'm not exactly setting the world alight with 1.Nf3. Maybe I should study the mysterious arts of 1.e4. Jul-18-07    Eyal: <Bobby Fischer, who played <c4> against <Spassky> just to be difficult.> Actually, he already played it twice before in his career, in the Palma de Mallorca Interzonal, and in one case it certainly had a devastating influence on his opponent: Fischer vs Panno, 1970.
