   Jan-11-26 Tata Steel Masters (2026) (replies)
 
WannaBe: So, the Tata Steel blitz were held in India, and players have 6 days to fly to NED for the next (or 2026 first) major event... What is the flight path? Here are some ideas: https://www.flightroutes.com/CCU-AMS

WannaBe: So I really kinda sorta, maybe late into the details of that Indiana/Oregon game. But I saw this article: https://www.yahoo.com/sports/articl... The Indiana player whose pick-6 started off the game? D'Angelo <Pond>. Not making this sheet up.

WannaBe: My wife gently nudge me before dinner and said something about she wanted a little "Night Music" later that night. So I had 3 extra helpings of beans with hot sauce.

WannaBe: <OCF> Not to mention when TV stations switch red (dem) and blue (rep) to what we know today... On a similar note, in Asia, if the stock shows red, it mean up, green, means down. Go fig.

  cu8sfan: <WannaBe: Good games, I'm still unwon (new word!) vs. you.> Lol! Thanks for the game, my friend.

  cu8sfan: By the way, has <emperoratahualpa> timed out your games as well? I wonder what's up with him.

  WannaBe: <cu8sfan> No, I was 'fortunate' enough to lose 2 games against <emperoratahualpa> before the games timed out...
Jul-13-07  Open Defence: geez I think I need to move to a chess playing city... you guys seem to have all the fun...

  WannaBe: You can call him "West Coast Kennedy", http://news.yahoo.com/s/bloomberg/2...

There was a time, where people resigned in shame and disgrace.

  WannaBe: Yeah, I'd be steamed too... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070712...
Jul-13-07  chessmoron: Gave the true meaning of "taste like cardboard."

But that's nothing compare to fast food chains in America. Having read "Fast Food Nation" by Eric Schlosser and knowing that 'sh--' is in the meat patties and I stop going to Carl's Jr/Burger King/McDs and went to In-N-Out now.

Jul-13-07  Open Defence: I recently heard that a Chinese Minister was executed over corruption charges, I wish they had that in India.. it would make people think a bit more.. perhaps...

  WannaBe: <Open Defence> That is correct. News from July 10th. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/2007071...
Jul-13-07  Chess Classics: <WannaBe: Yeah, I'd be steamed too... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070712...; Is that edible?!

When was that time :-)

Jul-14-07  JoeWms: Hey, good buddy, all nice to you for tracking down that Asimov avatar for <flintrock>.

Jul-14-07  WBP: <Wannabe> I caught your discussion of ales(especially IPAs--my favorite) in another forum. A lot of good stuff comes out of Colorado. Emory (I believe it's called) is quite good. Colorado has more microbrewries than any other state.
Jul-15-07  flintrock: ,<WannaBe> Thanks for your quick search to recover my Isaac avatar. I didn't know you could do that. Next time you go to the Mechanics Institute for a beating at the Chess Room,park at the 5th and Mission Garage and walk over it's a lot cheaper than parking downtown. Or take BART, get off at Montgomery Station, and it's right there. I'll drop by your forum from time to time. Read my response to Joe Wms for more hot air about me.

  WannaBe: I never expected this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eagc...

This one caught me by surprise, I do like it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVLQ...

But, in my opinion, nothing beats this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFru...

Jul-16-07  achieve: <WannaBE> Absolutely STUNNiNG performance LIVE by Simon and Garfunkel.. To hear Paul Simon so inspired, timing that freely, was a new experience for me. What a performances..
Jul-16-07  JDK: Hey WannaBe, thanks for the game! We're about as evenly matched as they come (esp on cg.com). I got soo trashed by everyone else. JDK must practice harder before entering the next cg.com tournament! :)
Jul-16-07  NakoSonorense: Wannabe! Man! Dude! You should've have bothered. Come on... I don't know what to say, really. I feel a little uncomfortable by all this. Remember that time when Roland gave like 20 free memberships? I didn't even send an email to cg.com because I didn't feel that I deserved one!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I really appreciate it... And I guess I'll be seeing you around for another year!
