| Feb-26-07 | | DrDum: <you vs yourself> And just to make it clear both <wannabe> and I will be wearing our Dodger away jerseys :=D |
|
| Feb-26-07 | | DrDum: <MidnightBlue> In case you forgot my name is Bill |
|
| Feb-26-07 | | DrDum: and the Monroi is the best thing I ever got in my chess career. Not to mention that after a almost a year I'm still the only kid on the block with one! :=D I'm sooo ahead of the curve! |
|
| Feb-26-07 | | Dr.Lecter: <wannabe> Well, believe it or not, I tried the <wannabe gambit> in a bullet game against a computer. I am not really proud of the result. Umm... cough, cough, I lost, cough, cough. All your opening's fault, cough, cough. |
|
| Feb-27-07 | | brankat: The morals of the story? How many times do I need to repeat it?:-) |

 | | WannaBe: Sell, Sell, Sell, Sell!!!! |
|
| Feb-27-07 | | suenteus po 147: <WannaBe> Aren't you supposed to buy when the Dow crashes? |
|
Feb-27-07
 | | WannaBe: <suenteus po 147> sell short. buy long. If you are really brave, sell 'naked' short. But I don't dabble in day-trading... Hanging around here takes up enough of my time. =) |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | midknightblue: DrDum - Sorry! I remembered your real name (same as mine) but forgot your handle. How are you? Any tournies planned. What is it that you like about the monroi. One of my concerns is that if I improve and become one of the better players in my area, then the local guys will be able to prepare for me by reviewing my monroi games. |

 | | WannaBe: Totally useless trivia fact:
"Lynerd Skynerd" was mentioned by Allen Sherman in a song in 1963. Now, don't you feel better knowing that?! |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | NakoSonorense: Here's another piece of trivia:
"In England in 1558, beards were taxed according to their length." Now, this is useful. |
|
Mar-01-07
 | | WannaBe: They taxed breads based on their length?!?! |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | NakoSonorense: Not breads! BEARDS! |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | brankat: Good thing it was only BEARDS :-) |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | c o r e: Hey hey! Just got my USCF membership, and I've joined the Clark County Chess Club (USCF). We're playing chess in Vegas every Monday and Thursday at 7:00 pm. What better excuse to come to Vegas? |
|
| Mar-01-07 | | Timothy Glenn Forney: Hello wannabe I tried the blue moon white ale with an orange,it was great thanks for the suggestion one of my favoites now try fat tire if you haven't already. |
|

 | | WannaBe: Ouch! An insider-created virus! http://money.cnn.com/2007/03/01/new... |
|
| Mar-02-07 | | JoeWms: <WannaBe: Can you add jumping ability at the top of the post section?> You <a rabbit!> asking CG.com to show you how to jump? Hang up your bunny suit -- you're through!
|
|
| Mar-03-07 | | suenteus po 147: <c o r e> Cool news. I used to be a member of the CCCC back in 2004-05 when I was living in Vegas. It's a pretty cool place. |
|
| Mar-05-07 | | midknightblue: hey great beer suggestions here. Blue Moon is nice, and so is fat tire (but fat tire isnt too easy to find - I had one when I was in colorado). For those of you in Pennsylvania or Florida, definitely dont miss out on Yuengling Porter (yuengling is the oldest brewery in the united states). And another great beer is Magic Hat. If you live in Connecticut or Vermont please mail me some! |

 | | WannaBe: Kinda scary story...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070305...And you can see what your state laws are: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070305... |
|
| Mar-10-07 | | brankat: Long time no-see. How have You been?
Serious preparations for Chicago under way already? Take care. |
|
| Mar-10-07 | | Tactic101: I think a few people might have seen this before, but all the same. Here's a list made by David Letterman about "The Ten Moments when You should Sense Danger in Chess"
10. There has been a change in the pawn structure. Your opponent has eight and you don't have any. 9. Your opponent begins to throw pawns at your eyes.
8. You have a position won, but your opponent has a gun. 7. The Director tells you not to bother turning in your scoresheet after the game. 6. Before the game begins you notice that your opponents first initials are 'GM'. 5. After completing your development you sense your opponent playing the endgame. 4. Just as you make your opening move your opponent announces mate in 11. 3. You don't control any squares at all.
2. Your draw offer sends all the people watching your game into uncontrollable laughter. 1. Your opponent has three bishops.
Hope I get a reply this time. |
|
| Mar-11-07 | | brankat: <Tactic101> Thank You for the list. It's just totally hillarious. Some of the above I've actually experienced more then once, like #s 5, 3, 2! But, are You sure the list was compiled by D.Letterman? Not <WannaBe>? :-) |
|
| Mar-11-07 | | Tactic101: It's David Letterman alright. I found it in a copy of Chess Life. |
