   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 ...

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.

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 ...

What's with all the <chess analysis>?

  Domdaniel: G'day Jess -- <What's with all the <chess analysis>?>

I reckon it's analysis without fear of repercussion. If we tried this in the Timmergame people would disagree, or pay no attention, or yell at us. But here we can potter away quietly.

  jessicafischerqueen: Gpmorning <dom>!!

Finally caught you "live."

Contrary to your post there, I was just thinking the other day about how respectfully your posts were received on the <Great Jan Timman> page.

In stark contrast to your posts on the <Kurtz> page.

On the <GJT> page, those big boys are well aware of you and the work you did on the <Nickels and Dimes in your Pocket> Game.

Harry Potter away!!

BTW, do you think JK Bowlderizing named her hero after MASH's Colonel Sherman Potter?

I do.

But then I'm barking mad.

  jessicafischerqueen: Oh BTW maybe you are a "bad influence" on me since I seem to have spent all day playing chess on Yahoo and filling my forum with <Chess related stuff>.

Niels has posted a game there on page 301, also.

I AM OVER 300 PAGES!!

I had myself a lonely "beer" over at the <beer forum> to celebrate.

  Domdaniel: <Jess> I must be a bad influence if you've started hanging out in beer joints, even virtual ones. But I don't think I'm actually 'live'. I'm one of the other wires ... neutral? Neuter? Something like that.

Congrats on 300 pages. I'm gaining on you again, though. See you at 400?

What are you doing up in the middle of the day?

  jessicafischerqueen: heh I was just noticing that- you are getting closer to number two spot.

With me "ho de combat" five days a week, and Wilson with school, <Frogspawn> will soon be second longest fourm thread.

And why not?

It's <Frogspawn>.

It's almost bedtime here, but I'm not missing <Freaky Friday> on TV.

Guaranteed to put me to sleep.

  Domdaniel: G'night, then, Jess. I can't follow timezones either but I'll make a mental note of this particular conjunction. Especially on Sundays.

I reckon <Kharri Pottair> is a drug reference -- you know what these authors are like, always trying to subvert All That Is Decent.

Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: heh <Kharri Pottair>...

Just saw Matt Dillon in a movie about heroin... and imagine my surprise when near the end, there was a cameo appearance by none less than <W Burroughs> himslef.

Playinga priest of all things!!

A junkie priest, of course.

Ok it's nine fifteen pm right now on the "real clock."

  Domdaniel: <Jess> That sounds like Drugstore Cowboy, yes? Gus Van Sant's first good movie -- there was an earlier, interminable, black-and-white one about boys, in which nothing much happened.

The Burroughs character in Drugstore Cowboy is based on one of his own stories 'The Priest'.

  Domdaniel: <Bill> I presume this -- J Perrier vs F J Wellmuth, 1917 -- is the Wellmuth you refer to. Unless it's one of his descendants. He appears to have been a priest.

I thought I had all the main Nimzo-related books (My System, Praxis, Blockade + collections by Keene, Nielsen & Reinfeld). Did Wellmuth produce another, or was the reference to his 'Golden Treasury'?

Oct-07-07  Red October: note the numerous references to <herbology> in the Harry Potter books.. ;-p

Premium Chessgames Member
  Domdaniel: <to <herbology> in the Harry Potter books.. > ... which gives me an ideal opportunity to unleash a truly awful pun. Obviously, these magic guys go to great trouble to pick herbs by moonlight and choose the right bush for their magic sticks. If anyone ever makes a spoof comic movie about this, it should be entitled ... <A Wand called Fuchsia>.

(aka Forsakes Fuchs!)

  Domdaniel: Another movie title: <The Khanti-Mansyisk for Red October>

About a little submarine that plays chess. Have I hit bottom yet?

Oct-07-07

  jessicafischerqueen: Ah so!

The bottom is the top.

When you lose,you win.

Just thought it might be time for a few Buddhist aphorisms.

  Domdaniel: Ah, the serene <Buddleia>. Does George Bush have Buddleia-nature?

Linking strands together as I tend to do -- musta been a ropemaker in a previous life, or maybe a prison escapee -- though really it's the prison which should be called the 'escapee' and the guy going over the wall should be the 'escaper' or 'escapado' ...

William Burroughs on the Buddha:
"So the Buddha got tired of sitting around waiting for the man, and said 'I'll by god metabolize my own junk'."

The endorphin is the beginning often?

Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: No, but <even Richard Nixon has got soul>.

Yes, Siddartha was a junkie on the <Buddha nature>.

BTW playing chess releases endorphins, enkephalins, and dopamine.

<Every Chess player's like a setting sun...>

Heh you're not the only one who can pepper posts with <Niel Young> references.

He's from CANADA but he spends most of his time in <Topanga Canyon> wherever the heck that is.

Regards,
JFQ

Oct-08-07  WBP: <Dom> Yeah, the Wellmuth book whre I found the Nimzo- games was, indeed, the Golden Treasury. I should have been clearer.

Hey, I thought I was the inspiration for Harry Potter, since Potter is my last name (WBP) and I've let my hair grow to an extraordinary (hairy) length.

<this is no country for old men... apart from Lasker, Smyslov, and the incredible Viktor Korchnoi. You and I should still be good for a couple of decades...> Yeah, that bastard Korchnoi. I bet he's Mafgnus carlsen in disguise.

Mornin' <Jess>, if you're still up! And Hi <Deffi>! Hope all's well with you guys.

Isn't <Young> a Korean name? You sure about Nee Il Yung being Canadian?

  Domdaniel: <BTW playing chess releases endorphins, enkephalins, and dopamine.>

I'd like to believe this. But has anyone done the experimental work? Chopping up chess players and putting their brains in a blender? That's how they found endorphins in mice.

Premium Chessgames Member
  Domdaniel: <Bill> Hail, fellow, Wellmuth!
Oct-08-07  WBP: <Dom> <Wellmuth...appears to have been a priest> Yes, Wellmuth the Ponderer (of theology).

  Domdaniel: <chess addicts> Coincidentally, my favorite Duchamp game is Addicks-Duchamp from the 1933 Olympiad. But it wasn't in the CG database last time I checked.
Oct-08-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: Yes, <Major Domo> and they don't have to chop up brains anymore.

This is all from <bona fide> recent studies on <happiness and addiction> and the brain chemistry associated with these states.

Interestingly, all three chemicals are also released into the brain during vigorous exercise.

You see, some addictions are <happy> ones.

Er... what the hecate is a <Wellmuth>?

Isn't <Addicks Finch> (portrayed by Gregory Peck) the father in <To Kill a Mockingbird and Grind up its Brain in a Blender>?

Well, at any rate, don't let it bring you down. It's only castles burning.
