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.

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 ...

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).

May-06-07  chesstoplay: Hey WannaBe,

My idea is to keep it easy and just eat at the hotel.

If there are only a handful of us, breakfast is on me!

I'll talk to Yury Monday night and reconfirm with him as well.

No way, chess is better than sex! :)

May-08-07  chesstoplay: Hey WannaBe,

We're all set for Saturday morning at the Chicago Open.

Yury will definately be joining us.

Tim Just is also going to join us, so if you have any TD or rules questions bring them along!

We just have to pick a time. I'm going to make reservations.

So get the word out and see if we can get any other chessgame.com folk to join the 5 of us... WannaBe, chesstoplay, Dr. Drum, Tim Just and Yury.

We should have a great time!

Your friend in chess,

Peter / chesstoplay

May-08-07  you vs yourself: <chesstoplay> Add me to the list too.

May-09-07  technical draw: <Wannabe>< I wish my company offers us beer after work...>

When I lived in St. Thomas, USVI, I used to see every morning from my apartment how a pick-up loaded with workers would stop at a small store and the workers would get out and they would come out of the store with a beer in hand and a little bag with extra beer. It was 7:00 am. These were contruction workers working with heavy equipment and under dangerous conditions. I guess the managers figured it was safer to provide the beer and control it then having the workers hide the stuff. Anyway a few beers in the morning makes the day go faster and makes happier workers..Cheers...

  WannaBe: Wheeeee!! In the May issue of Chess Life, our team name was printed on page 27, left hand column.

<U1400: CP: Yu Will Fall to the Gs, 2-4>

Yu is my last name, and the 2 G's are Robert and Brett's last names, we left out <DrDum>'s name!!! Bawahahahahahah.....

Yes, we only won 2 pts and lost 4 pts. but still won our section. Go fig... My very first chess prize!! Oh, yeah, CP is Chess Palace, where <DrDum>, Robert, and Brett plays.

May-10-07  Chess Classics: Oh my gawd! They changed what happens when you Google failure! They no longer show the white house homepage! =(

Still, the New York-London directions are a total score =)

Regards,
CC

May-10-07  DrDum: <Wannabe> said <Yu is my last name, and the 2 G's are Robert and Brett's last names, we left out <DrDum>'s name!!! Bawahahahahahah>

AHEM! (clearing throat) The last time I checked my drivers liscence my name WAS William Will get it? :=D

May-10-07  WBP: <Wannabe> Saw the Chess Life mention--congratulations! Are you (<Wannabe>, not the team) playing in Chicago? If so, good luck--perhaps you'll do something to merit a second mention!

  WannaBe: <WBP> Yes, that ape-avatar boy (<DrDum>) and I will be in Chicago.

<DrDum> Sorry, keep on thinking of you as Bill, instead of Will.

May-10-07  William Shatner: OK, thanks!

Don't worry; no more singing.

May-11-07  Tactic101: I think there are hotels under water. I saw them in an issue of Nat Geo.
May-12-07  Eyal: <WannaBe: <TheAlchemist: 29.h6 has been played. Any suggestions?> 'Push Da Button! Push Da Button!!' Sorry, can't get that song out of my head...>

Yeah, it does have this kind of effect, doesn't it... there were quite a lot of arguments in Israel about whether this song is any good or just plain silly.
