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

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: 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"

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).

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 ...

  jessicafischerqueen: Oh that's an <EXCELLENT> book <Nako>.

There's a very good TV Documentary made out of it too.

Lots of pages.

It's a convincing argument though.

Aug-09-07

  jessicafischerqueen: <then read HP.>

Yo <Nako> you mean the <ingredients to the Steak Sauce> or the <instructions for how to work the printer>?

HP?

Aug-09-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <NakoSonorense> After that, read "Collapse" You know that Jared teaches at UCLA right? (or does he still?) And you're taking it (book) slow?? =)

Don't mind that Canadian woman and her comments, they're shipping/getting rid of her out to Korea (exile) soon anyway. Bwahahahah...

Aug-09-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: On a serious note, I have both "G, G, and S" and "Collapse". Very, very good, fascinating, intriguing read. Does make you think...
Aug-09-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: Yes, I was cheering for the <germs> in the first volume you mention, <MannBee>.

My only quibble, perhaps, with this fascinating study is that it probably should have been titled <Guns, Germs, Steel, and Bees>.

That's as close to a <serious note> as I can sing.

  jessicafischerqueen: Oh I forgot to add, how do we all feel about <Bonds> owning the <Home Run Record>?

I got nothing against <Bonds> myself, I'm happy for him.

BTW, is <Canseco> still playing? Or is he already retired?

  WannaBe: <jessicafischerqueen> You must know, I live in L.A. (county), I'm a long time (since I can remember, but memories gets hazy with age) Dodgers fan.

When my skin gets cut, I bleed Dodgers Blue! (Either that, or I'm a Vulcan...) The last 2 weeks have been absolute H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks for me. (Dodgers went on a bad skid...)

I can't stand the Giants, I've always dislike(d) the Giants, because of that, I even hold grudges against the New York Football team with the same name.

As far as I'm concerned, 'Hammerin' Hank is the record holder. (Or for that matter, Sadahara Oh have hit more home runs than that guy in San Francisco).

He's a self-serving, rude, arrogant, over-paid person, who gets to play a game (that I love). And, yes, I <LOVE> baseball. If I'm ever stranded on a deserted island, with Ms. Sharapova, and a TV that shows nothing but baseball game, I'd be watching baseball.

That should cover your question. :-))

  jessicafischerqueen: Ha!

So <Aaron> keeps the record?

I'm ok with that too.

However, I think even the water boys all take steroids these days.

Last game I saw all the way through was in summer of 2004, at the <Big O> in <Montreal>.

Pretty good game too. Baseball is 500 times better live.

I like clacking the empty seats up and down and yelling at the players.

You ever go to the games?

Aug-10-07  achieve: <However, I think even the water boys all take steroids these days.> Hasn't Bonds been punished for doping? I remember years ago that there were allegations against him...

Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <achieve> Allegations, yes, punishment/indictments? No.

<jessicafischerqueen> Your earlier question on Canseco, he's been retired now for 3? 4? years.

I enjoy going to games, (you must have missed my Chicago pictures...) I've re-uploaded them for you, check the link in my profile.

One of the thing that I love (besides 'dogs, 'nuts, and beer) is keeping score, I even showed/taught <you vs yourself> at the Cubs game!

  jessicafischerqueen: Wow <MannBee> you are the KING of meeting <CG.com> members and taking their pictures.
Aug-10-07  Tactic101: Now this one is just sad. Damn them polluting cities who are just dumping their waste air in this innocent town!

  jessicafischerqueen: Yes <Tactic> I have to agree with you. We all have to stop driving cars.

Unless they have custom <chess> licence plates.

<Re8+>!

  WannaBe: Wheeee! I made it out of the first round for the 37th GK tournament. Now gonna wait for round 2 to start. =)
Aug-11-07  achieve: I better watch out now, your confidence must be sky high! ;-)

  jessicafischerqueen: Congratulations <MannBee>!!

Do you wear your <superhero> costume when you play?

It must be quite intimidating to your opponents.

Aug-11-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <jessicafischerqueen> No, I usually play in my undies (at home).
Aug-11-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: Heh

Do they have pictures of <bees> on them?

Aug-11-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: No, it's got a bunch of grapes and assorted other fruits on them. K. think it's time to drop this subject. Move to on other more 'civilized' subjects. =)
Aug-11-07

  jessicafischerqueen: NO WAY FRUIT UNDIES KICK ASS

I want a picture

Premium Chessgames Member
  jessicafischerqueen: heh... not bad, not bad... I was expecting a bit MORE though, if you catch my drift.
Aug-12-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <jessicafischerqueen> If you want to see 'MORE', your local grocery store have an excellent selections of fruits.

  WannaBe: What's going on in baseball? Yesterday Edwin Jackson, ex-Dodger pitched a shutout giving him a record of 3-11 (!) on the season. Today Jeff Weaver, ex-Dodger pitched a shutout giving him a record of 4-10(!) on the season.

On the other hand, current Dodger Mark Hendrickson 4-7, lasted only 2 and 2/3 innings gave up <8> earned runs, in a(nother) losing cause to the St. Louis Cards.

I think I see a trend here...

  jessicafischerqueen: They sell <undies> in the <fruit section>?

Who knew?
