It was just a compliment. Feb-01-08    Open Defence: <meloncio> I know.. i was just going along with it.. Aruna is Anand's wife in case you did not know :) Feb-01-08    meloncio: <Aruna is Anand's wife in case you did not know :)> Oooops sorry, I didn't know that. I'll have to check Chessbase magazine more often :-) And I should know it, because Anand is living (or lived?) in Spain, near Madrid. I remember he speaks a perfect Spanish. Feb-01-08    Open Defence: yeah I think he shuttles between Spain and India, but practically I think he lives more in Spain than in India Feb-01-08    WannaBe: Bar Pics: http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... http://mysite.verizon.net/jyu1/IMAG... Feb-01-08    Stonehenge: Looks pretty good <Wannabe>! I'm a bit far away, but I'd love to drink a couple of gin-tonics in your bar. Feb-01-08    technical draw: Great pics <Wannabe> umm, who's Riley? Cool 1950's bicycle and Pabst Blue Ribbon on tap. It's a tight fit but I wish you the best of luck. (under the Bicycle I'll put a stool and mic and do my comedy there). Feb-01-08    brankat: <WannaBe> Is the joint actually in Long Beach? Not far from where You live? Feb-01-08    brankat: <technical draw> Try this one :-) http://images.google.com/imgres?img... Feb-01-08    WannaBe: Reminder to self, the next bar that I acquire, don't close the deal near the end of the month... Spent all day receiving kegs of beer, sea food, and writing checks, while trying to tally up (Using my spreadsheet) January's sales totals. I enter the numbers everyday, but found a little 'bug' in the code that I programmed into the spreadsheet, spent 10 minutes debugging that little issue. Guess I can still do programming and still have bugs! Something never change. =) While still juggling all the other stuff I do... But I'm having too much fun, though =) Another month or two, I'll have this all down to an exact 'science'... Bwahahahahaha!! Feb-01-08    WannaBe: <brankat> The joint is 4 blocks away from where I live. I was a regular there for 1.5 years... Feb-01-08    brankat: <WannaBe> <The joint is 4 blocks away from where I live. I was a regular there for 1.5 years> Talking abut convenience! You'll save a bundle on gasoline. Plus a brisk walk from/to work is a good exercise. Who knows, maybe You could even move in, and save on rent. too :-) Feb-01-08    NakoSonorense: I don't think it is her. <chessmoron> was joking around. Feb-01-08    WannaBe: <NakoSonorense: I don't think it is her. <chessmoron> was joking around.> Maybe it is a reverse-reverse-reverse-reverse psychology, and it is her?! =) Feb-01-08    brankat: <WannaBe> <Maybe it is a reverse-reverse-reverse-reverse psychology, and it is her?! =)> Once an analyst, always an analyst :-) Feb-01-08    NakoSonorense: That's four "reverses", which gets us back to where we started ==> It is not her. Feb-01-08    brankat: Perhaps we should vote, without waiting for the culprit to clarify the issue :-) Feb-02-08    technical draw: Now you're saying it's not OD. After <Wannabe> deleted my posts and I hired a body guard. Hmmm any way I had a way out: Computer?, no, Enhanced Beauty! (see Wannabe I can steal from the Simpsons too,) Feb-02-08    brankat: No, I'm not. <Nako>, the Skeptic is :-) Feb-02-08    WannaBe: Why people keep on coming in when I'm trying to kibitz!? Bugging me for beers and food... Sheeeesh! Feb-02-08    technical draw: I have a feeling that at Wannabe's bar no one leaves a tip. Feb-02-08    brankat: <td> I have a feeling that WannaBe, generous as he is, gives tips to his customers :-) <WannaBe> Btw, beware of those in habit of drinking on credit. Feb-02-08    brankat: <WannaBe> Have You by any chance heard from old Joe recently. It looks like he has not kibitzed since Jan/23.
