WannaBe: <stone free or die> Truman, and not mention G. Ford that didn't even win a presidential election. Like K. Harris that didn't go through a nomination process. And was just thrown out there.

WannaBe: Speaking of ice soccer, this is my annual post on the Presidents' Trophy (which will be renamed Trump Trophy in 2027. 🤣) This is a trophy awarded the NHL team with the most points, or in a way, best record... The last time a 'best' team went on to win the Stanley Cup? ...

  WannaBe: <brankat> Duly noted, what I am doing now is pretty much non-thinking, I'm letting my computer do all the work.

you should open your forum too!

Jun-05-06  Dionyseus: <WannaBe> Alright, that sounds interesting. However I'll be using books if you don't mind.

No sweat!

Jun-05-06  notsodeepthought: <WannaBe: <larrewl> No problem. =)> Glad to hear that - because I'd like to replace my original guess on Croatia with Australia in the Brazil group. Do you need the re-submission of the whole list?

  WannaBe: <brankat> I need a second, but I'm way beyond help. =)

If you want to come, I'll change my room from a double to a triple.

  WannaBe: <Dionyseus> 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6

An interesting note here, the computer gave both 4...Nf6 and 4...Be7 both as equal. With this line...

4...Nf6 (4...Be7) 5. d4 exd4 6. 0-0 Be7 (Nf6) 7. Nxd4

Black's fourth move and sixth are transposed.

Jun-06-06  brankat: <WannaBe> Thank You for a very kind offer. But I was joking of course. As things are now, I'm stuck where I am. First, can't leave my cats, secondly, can't afford any travel, nor anything else. Hopefully some other time. Best wishes to You my friend.

  WannaBe: My manager have officially signed off on my 3 days leave from work. (So I can be in Vegas June 15th - 19th).

Headline, June 15th, 2006:
President Bush has now officially declared Clark County to be a disaster area.

Jun-06-06  brankat: <WannaBe> You are not going to be in just any city, but in Vegas! If things go well, You may not have to work again :-) Then You can tell Your boss to shove it. Besides, You have worked at the same place for 7 years. It is supposed to be a lucky number, so it may be wise not to push Your luck any further :-)
