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.

So, I'm using my wireless and picking up signal from my neighbor and pigg-backing... =( Jan-17-07    WannaBe: And the stupid signal keeps on dropping in/out/in/out... Jan-17-07    WannaBe: Taking my computer (laptop) to work tomorrow and plugging it into the land-line there, just to check that it's not my network adaptor, and to save my own sanity.

This time, I'll be white, same time control, 14 days/move.>> Regarding another game at GK, You with the White, sure, no probs. Just give me until next Monday, or so. Need some more time to get this Consultation game going (thanks to YU know who:-)), and to wrap up a few games I still have at Schemingmind. I'll let You know in a few days. Jan-17-07    WannaBe: <brankat> Okay, very cool. Please take your time. Looks like Verizon got their side straightened out, I can use my DSL again. Jan-17-07    dr.roho: <wannabe> Hey I am just checking back in and seeing how everyone is doing. I can't wait tell school's over so i can get back on this site like I used to. Well, I hope I get to talk to you guys some more. Could someone link the Nickel vs The World match? Thanks.

I thought, it would have been interesting, that you had K-side majority pawns 4 vs 3 and if an effort was made to attack that side, I'd have to make the decision on helping to defend the pawns, or make a break to queen side to aide the attempt to promote a pawn.

Last week's central states snow storm screwed up Yury's return from Kansas. He was suppose to be in O'Hare at 4 PM to teach for us at 7 PM. His last call to me Monday night was just after 10 PM and he was in Chicago finally. Anyway, we got together today and I asked him if he is going to play in the Chicago Open. His current plan is to compete. I mentioned your chessgames.com get together as promised. Yury said he'd be pleased to join the chessgames.com group for maybe half an hour between rounds!! We'll should probably set up set up something easy, fun and fast. Let me know your thoughts. Jan-21-07    WannaBe: <chesstoplay> Cool, let's see what's available, so far there are 'relatively' few people that's going, which will make arrangements much eaiser.
