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 537 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: ok must be a female player.. how many female chess players are a fine piece of <a$$> ?? LOLOLOLOLOL Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: *Poughkeepsie* Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: Look we are all here right now and we are all smart. I estimate our combined IQ at over 120. Here is my proposal- You guys form a "think tank" and find the answer. Then, email me the answer. I will submit it and collect the prize. Then we meet at <Howard's> place to divide up the prize. Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: <Jess> - <LOLOLOL...?> That's more Lollery than this forum has ever seen. But it *was* (a) very funny, and (b) OpenRedBeautifulDeffi. So all is cool. Fischer, btw, had some kind of run-in with a beach donkey at the Sousse interzonal in 1967. But you knew that... Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: The word for donkey in several languages, eg Russian and Gaelic, is something like 'asal'. Inverted, 'lasa'. But I am *not* going to check thru the games of <Baron Tassilo von Heydebrand und der Lasa>. Dec-13-09    capafan: "upside down and back asswards" Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: "backwards ass is 'ass backwards' ass backwards" - Thomas Pynchon Dec-13-09    Stonehenge: Donkey business :( Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: Have we all given up? Where's the <Spirit of Donkeyerque>? Dec-13-09    Red October: I think Kamasutra had something about the Inverted Ass on a Swing or something like that, maybe WGM Natty Pogosticks can help ? Dec-13-09    Red October: is it Danailov ? the biggest Ass of Chess ? Dec-13-09    Stonehenge: I got so far as <Jenny> :( Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: <Henge> I even thought of <inverted Jenny> (we're old friends) ... but from there to Capa was a leap too far. It seems that for this year's comp one has to start by ignoring all the obvious lines of attack. And then some. Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: Excuse me but A: Why didn't CG.com give the exact date the game was played, and also the exact date the stamp was issued- so we could check to see how "close" the date really was? B: I find it difficult to believe that <Capablanca v Flintstone 1918> is the only game in the database "close" to that date. Ergo I believe CG.com owes us some more information on this answer. Do you think we should stage a hunger strike until they submit to this demand? I would be happy to join such a strike, especially since I've just now had a good tuck-in. Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: <Stony> Well done on the <Jenny> = female mule. I'm hoping for a clue involving a photo of a male adolescent pig next. That's called a <shoat>. The answer could be <Rasta v. Kingston>, a game played "very close" to the date that the fine gangster film <shottas> was released. Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: "Being at a loss for an epithet sufficiently injurious, he finished his expressions of horror by muttering, 'Good Heavens!' in a manner that had been found very efficacious in clerical meetings of the diocese." - Trollope, The Warden Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: Finally, did you know that that damned Chimp in <thorski's> forum has already garnered three of the prizes so far? I probably shouldn't mention this in public, but three of the prominent members of this website are in fact sockpuppets for said Chimp. Which three of the puzzle winners this year are Chimp socks, I leave up to you detectives to discern. I've already said to much. Well Ok at 25,600 posts it's redundant for me to say that but Shirley you get my point. Dec-13-09    jessicafischerqueen: Oh no <Dom> is at the Trollope again- this is almost as bad as when he gets at his "sums." Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: I blame the Trollope. Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: POME I drew a map of Canada With your face Sketched on it twice. Impressive, in a way As I have no idea What either of them looks like. [after Trollope, Borges, Mitchell, etc] Dec-13-09    Red October: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YU85... enjoy! Roisin Murphy is Irish I believe... Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: So it seems. Tá sí go háilinn. Dec-13-09    Red October: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwmo... how can you not get up and shake what yo mama gave yer to this.... Dec-13-09    Red October: suas a fháil agus do bogadh Dec-13-09    Domdaniel: <MostlyRedBeautifulDeffi> You did this. You asked them for 'rock' clues. But I don't suppose you were thinking of Shakira's Mom and antique rubber hubba chips, were you? Something like 'Hot Rats' - with Zappa vs a Rat - would be OK. Or 'Wesley Ripped My Flesh', with Zappa losing to a teen prodigy. Or even 'Sting, Where is thy death?' But they're on an obscurity kick here, and even I can't imagine solving any more. Leaving the field to MAJ's astoundingly lateral brain and army of computer drones. OK. They *have* evened out the field. More people are winning. Last year, two of us won five apiece and several more were on four. This way is probably better ... but, demmit, apart from an odd poem I'm not seeing those word-fixated crosswordy things I like. Photos, mp3 files ... what next? Twitters? Selah. Back to bed with Trollope. And my favourite reference book, 'Swearing' by Geoffrey Hughes ... (To Bishop: a term used by horse dealers, for burning a mark into a horse's tooth, after he has lost it by age...) I think I need a good Bishoping to ward off senility. "It is a common saying, of milk, that the bishop has set his foot in it." -- Grose, 1785.
