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 859 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Mar-19-13    Domdaniel: <H> Nah, nobody writes likes Gene. But moving to Ireland can do wonders for your shagging vocabulary. "Shagging? Snogging? What *are* these, some kinda rodent sex words?" Mar-19-13    hms123: <Dom> This kind? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVQz... Or this kind? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TV9W... Apr-02-13    vwllssknght: Hey, Domdaniel, I see that you mentioned a zine by the name of Zilch in one of your comments. Would that, by chance, by the comic zine that was published in Ireland in the early '80s? I'm a longtime collector of Irish comics and am writing a reference guide to them. If you wouldn't mind answering a few simple questions to help me fill in the blanks, I would appreciate it! You can e-mail me at comixbible@gmail.com Apr-04-13    hms123: <Dom> I just finished <Borderlands> by Brian McGilloway and am now reading <Gallows Lane>. The books are quite good. May-18-13    Domdaniel: OK, I'm kinda back, testing whether my connection works ... May-18-13    Annie K.: Yep!!! :D May-18-13    OhioChessFan: Have you seen a doctor about it? May-18-13    Annie K.: Oh, <Ohio>, you ask the mostest appositest questions! :D Or, in other words... User: tank User: euphoria User: inquiry ;) May-18-13    dakgootje: Welcome back dom :) May-18-13    N0B0DY: Why are we here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for <Dom> to come. May-18-13    hms123: Waiting for <GDomO>. I knew he'd be here sometime soon. May-19-13    Domdaniel: <Ohio> Yes, ackshully, I have. But the doc isn't saying anything. May-19-13    Domdaniel: <H> 'Soon' is, of course, a relative term. The sun will burn out 'soon'. I'll be back a little after that. May-19-13    Alien Math: Glad to note your return <Domdaniel> :) Have find any neat books since? May-21-13    Domdaniel: <Alien Math> Yes indeed. I suggest Equations of Life, and Theories of Flight by Simon Morden, plus a couple of later sequels. May-21-13    Annie K.: OK, in case you need a restarter topic, "what are your first impressions* upon returning to cg after all this, I mean brief of course, time?" * Should you feel any tweezerish urges, don't bother to resist them. ;) May-23-13    Alien Math: Thank you, hope to find them in near used book store, they able to help call other stores if not find, take care May-30-13    Domdaniel: <Annie> My first impression is that nothing changes. As this is almost certainly wrong, it will be replaced in due course by my 2nd impression. May-30-13    Domdaniel: <Alien Math> Also, the incredible M. John Harrison. His SF novel, Light, published about ten years ago, was amazingly brilliant. Now there are two sequels, also superb -- Nova Swing, and Empty Space. May-30-13    Annie K.: Sounds like a very reasonable plan. =) May-31-13    Domdaniel: Hey ho. Walking down the street near my apartment, I bump into Tony, another member of my chess team. I'd missed the last couple of matches, and he filled me in. We discussed opponents and queens en prise and traps and opening strategies and the difficulty of playing endgames well and the many things that can go wrong... It all helps to draw me back in to the Chessworld. May-31-13    Domdaniel: Note: if <cohare> is still around ... sorry, C, I lost your email address. And it is really long past time I got in touch. Apologies, and if you see this please send/post a reminder. May-31-13    hms123: <Dom> You need to keep an <eye> on things: Domdaniel chessforum Jun-01-13    Alien Math: <Domdaniel> Many thanks for suggestions, love some worlds writers create, appear that best place for book findings are used bookstores, holds entire herds of books not published again Jun-01-13    Domdaniel: <H> and <A>: thank you both for digging in Frogspawn past. And yes, I *should* know how to do that by now ... Maybe I'm just incorrigibly lazy.
