Apr-07-26 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5      Apr-06-26 Fusilli chessforum    WannaBe: You too <Fusilli>      Apr-05-26 Chessgames - Odd Lie   WannaBe: Gotta double-triple check for typos in the future, what is "coving my neighbor's wife"?? Are we doves?      Apr-01-26 OhioChessFan chessforum   WannaBe: <OCF> I will now have be a wabbit and dig dipper into Camp Washington Chili. Never hoid of them, don't know if they are canned, fast food, grocery store, etc. Will keep you updated.      Mar-21-26 Chessgames - TV and Films    WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.      Mar-18-26 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: <plang> Do you have a link to where you got that information/data from? I would love to read it for myself.      Mar-16-26 WannaBe chessforum    WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"      Mar-13-26 chessgames.com chessforum    WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...      Mar-11-26 Sebastien Feller    WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).      Mar-05-26 G Timoscenko vs Karpov, 1967   WannaBe: So, strictly out of "Morbid Curiosity", I requested an analysis of the position: 1) +12.62 (22 ply) 55...Ke6 56. Nc6 Bg2 57. Nxa7 Ba8 58. Nc6 Kd7 59. Ne5+ Ke6 60. Nxg6 Be4 61. b6 f4 62. Nxf4+ Kf5 63. g6 Kg4 64. b7 Kxg3 65. b8=Q Kf3 66. g7 Bh7 67. g8=Q Bxg8 68. Qxg8 Ke3 69. a7 Ke4 ...

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 171 OF 754 ·  Later Kibitzing> Dec-05-06    WannaBe: The long-awaited "Hannibal Rising" is released (today)!! Woo Woo!!! Now, someone pass me that plate of fava beans and the Chianti please. Check back here in a few days for the book review. =) Dec-06-06    WannaBe: Alright, how many of you knows this SONG???: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPbt... And name the band, no cheating!!!! Dec-06-06    WannaBe: There was a time where I can sing (like) this... Now I sound more like Harry Shearer. But I still love Frankie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0gw... Dec-06-06    nescio: <Alright, how many of you knows this SONG???: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPbt... And name the band, no cheating!!!!> Don't know what you mean by cheating, but I remember it from the jazz band Manhattan Transfer. I don't know who wrote the song. Dec-06-06    technical draw: 1965 The Ad Libs..... Dec-06-06    BishopofBlunder: <WannaBe: Alright, how many of you knows this SONG???: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPbt...; Would you consider the ability to read the "artist and title" written above the video screen "cheating"? Dec-06-06    technical draw: <BoB> Check the URL ... Dec-06-06    WannaBe: <BishopofBlunder> I was thinking people will just listen to the tune, but not try to see the screen. =) Bad example. Dec-06-06    NakoSonorense: I don't know if you're aware of this, but last Friday the UCLA Soccer team lost the final against UCSB. Had UCLA won, it would have been our 100th National Championship, which is, as you probably know, more than any other university in the US!!! The victory over 'SC somehow compensates for that, though... :) Dec-06-06    WannaBe: <NakoSonorense> Yes, I was aware of the fact that both Men and Women Soccer team lost in the NCAA playoffs. And our water polo team did not do well this year. Dec-07-06    WannaBe: "Hannibal Rising", if you liked the earlier Hannibal books, you won't be disappointed. The book tells the story of how the child Hannibal became the person that we know. Quick read, quite enjoyable. Dec-07-06    WannaBe: My own nominations...
