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

Frogspawn: Levity's Rainbow

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 82 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: <angsty sixteen year old girl> ... True, but I can pass for seventeen. Anyhoo, I've done the distasteful deed. Approx delete count: Jess: 5 Moi: 4 Eyal: 1 But I left a few 'testes' that were too funny to destroy or were otherwise harmless. Or non-combatants. I also zapped my discovery of the etymological link between 'gambit' and 'gamahuche'. Though undoubtedly chess-related, it sat right next to the thunderous missive from CG.com, and may have looked a tad, well, provocative. I think the 24 hour period has about 4 hours to run. But I see no reason to delete anything else... Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: I think it's OK too, <fearless leader>, perhaps it won't be any more painless than brushing one's teeth before Dental examination? Four hours till Dental exam, then? IT'S A MAN'S LIFE IN THE BRITISH DENTAL ASSOCIATION, of course... Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: <Jess> Tried to run a new scientific experiment there, to see if a person's total kibitz count drops when zapping occurs. But it's impossible, as you can post faster than I can delete... I used to write a column called <Backspace> - it appeared on the last page of a magazine. My gimmick was to finish up with something moderately outrageous and then go... Backspace, backspace. Feb-15-07    mack: Sigh... seventeen what? Glad you've been so frank about what you've zapped. (Get in there quick, chaps - there's a tailor-made pun for one of you there to get your grubby mits on...) Feb-15-07    TheSlid: <What else do they make in Belgium?> Last thing of note to be made in Belgium was <ca plane pour moi> by <Plastique Bertranne> - the world's only famous, living Belgian. Feb-15-07    WannaBe: They still make waffles in Belgium, right?! Feb-15-07    mack: <the world's only famous, living Belgian.> Wot no Philippe Albert? Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: (Whistles... dusts... tidies... arranges knick-knacks neatly on top of the Armoire) Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Dom> backspace? A la <Fischer>, always attack even while retreating? (tidies more, whistles tunelessly, posts incessantly) Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Famous Belgians> We can't neglect <Alexander Hague>, surely? Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: Waffles? Why, yes, indeed they do. With, ah, *flour*, I believe. As Captain Ahab used to sing to his crew, <Whale Meat Again...> S'cool, man, we're clean. Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Moby Dick Fun Pub> is a real place in <Belgium>, saw a photo of it in a recent biography of <Melville> I read last month... Do you think <Eyal> will visit there after he delivers his paper? <Eyal> bowls the cadre... and... Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: We are all Legitimists now. Good story, btw. Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: Which story <Dom>? Did you read the scary Devil Chess story? I love it i read it a buncha times Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Legitimists>? Sorry, but I'm actually a <Waldensian>.. or a <Lollard>.. I can't remember, but one of those two I'm pretty sure. Feb-15-07    WarmasterKron: <More famous Belgians> Kim Clijsters deserves a mention, surely? Feb-15-07    mack: "What, you mean he's a frank zapper?" Jesus, I have to do all the work round here. Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: 4.g4?! Why don't he just take the pawn Nxg4? I never understand these "gambits." Getting lost in first 4 moves already... Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: LOL <Dom> you played Bg2 on moves 3. and 8.!! So move 3. must have been Bb3? Still trying to reach the FEN position... Feb-15-07    jessicafischerqueen: To quote <Asterix in Belgium>: Obelix: "These Belgians are Crazy." Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: Oops. 3.Bb2 is what it should be. And 8.Bg2 is right... Hmm, very Freudian. I must be so used to the sequence 'Bg2 Bg7' that I try to play it even before actually moving a g-pawn... Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: <Sigh. Seventeen what?> Seventeen Seconds. The Cure? Feb-15-07    Domdaniel: Midnight here now, around the time my 24 hour probation period runs out. The clean-up seems sufficient to me. We move on to subtler zones. A demain. Feb-16-07    hitman84: TIN TIN ? Blistering Barnacles! Feb-16-07    Domdaniel: <chessgames.com> If anyone's paying attention up there... I believed that I *had* complied. I've now deleted a couple more posts that might have been a tad high-spirited. And I've emailed you. So what next?
