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. 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 ...

You, my friend, of all people are more than deserving to experience a joyous and prosperous New Year. Cheers my friend! Dec-25-07    WannaBe: Bah Hum Bugs, or is it Bah Bed Bugs, maybe it's just simply 'Bugs'!! =) Dec-25-07    Open Defence: Mr Wabbit Merry Christmas!!! Wishing you plenty of carrots in the coming year!!! *** psst he's not really a rabbit.. thats just his avatar Oh ok then... MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! do we sing Auld Lang Syne now ? Dec-25-07    JoeWms: I didn't send you a card because ... well, <because you are one.> Enjoy the holidays, good buddy. Dec-25-07    jessicafischerqueen: I vote <Eyal> for best <construction worker> post award. He often uses <constuction paper> in his posts!! The colors make his commentary even more constructive. Dec-25-07    YouRang: Merry Christmas Wabbit - Good job on the Caissars! Dec-25-07    WBP: <Wannabe> Happy Holidays, Sir Bugs. May 2008 bring more chess triumphs (Biggest Upset was a 2007 highlight, yes?), baseball, and beer--maybe not in that order.

Hey our old buddy Monk will be back with all new epis. Looking forward to those! Dec-27-07    WannaBe: http://gameknot.com/mt.pl?id=23755 You know who really, really scares me in that tournament??? It's the guy in last place, one game finished, and he won that game, and he's the one who started the tournament... Really taking his time (notice the time control...) and he scares the crap out of me. I've played relatively 'fast', and my result so far is OK/acceptable for me, or my level of play, but this guy... He scares me. Dec-29-07    WannaBe: It's cold here in L.A. we are down to about 50 degrees, I can hartly type collectry, everytime I bearth, I see my own exhale... Dec-29-07    ahmadov: <I am the inventor of the WannaBe Gambit: 1. e4 ... 2. Ke2? ! ? ! Use it at your own risk, if you should lose the game, it just means you play exactly like me. <CONGRATULATIONS>!!> You can also ask <CG> to register this as your opening to protect your copy right for the future misuse of these moves... ;-) Dec-29-07    talisman: <WannaBe> thanks WannaBe...great stuff. Dec-31-07    cu8sfan: Re <King's Gambit Accepted, Fischer Defence> After a devastating loss against the King's Gambit (Spassky vs Fischer, 1960) Fischer wrote an article in "American Chess Quarterly" entitled "A Bust to the King's Gambit" where he introduced 3...d6. That's why it's called the Fischer Defence. You can read the article here: http://www.chesscafe.com/text/bust..... Dec-31-07    brankat: <WannaBe><cuBsfan> An interesting article by Evans/Fischer. And, yes, that's how the variation got it's name. Just one remark. I think there is a mistake in the Bio part there: <They include a solid second (to World Champion Tal) at the powerful Zurich Tournament, 1959,> I believe it was Gligoric who took the 2nd prize, behind Tal and ahead of B.Fischer. Dec-31-07    brankat: Also, contrary to L.Evans text, Fischer lost the game to Gligoric in Zurich, 1959: Gligoric vs Fischer, 1959 Dec-31-07    brankat: <WannaBe> My dear friend, I want to wish You a very Happy and prosperous New Year. May it bring You a whole bunch of cute girlfriends, many astounding victories OTB, and business successes. Cheers! P.S. Just a thought. Instead of "Grill & Bar Pool Hall", how about "Grill & Bar Chess Hall"? :-) After all, how many of those are there are around! Dec-31-07    Robin01: <WannaBe> A Happy and successful New Year to you! <"Grill & Bar Chess Hall"> This sounds good!:) Dec-31-07    WannaBe: Thanks everyone, it's a pub & grill, it actually don't have any room for pool table(s)... Dec-31-07    JoeWms: You've given much to 2007, you're entitled to a Happy New Year. Dec-31-07    Open Defence: HAPPY NEW YEAR <Mr Wabbit> are you sure 2008 is not the year of the Rabbit ? Jan-01-08    jessicafischerqueen: Good luck <MannBee>!! Will you hire waitresses from <Hooters>? (probably good for business...) HAPY NUDE DEER <MannBee>!! Jan-01-08    WannaBe: No, I'm not hiring anyone from <Hooters>, owls don't make good servers...
