WannaBe: This one is from Henry Cho: "I'm changing the caller ID of my wife's phone number to Potential Spam" If you have not seen or heard of Henry, he is worth some of your time on YouTube.

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.

  WannaBe: <positionalgenius> Sounds like work-place/school doesn't want you to play... =)

Don't believe there is a way around it, if your work/school don't want you to access a site, they can completely block it out...

Mar-02-08  JoeWms: Heads up, kid! A <big> name popped up in the Kibitzer's Cafe:

<GM Dzindzichashvili: this is a nice website you have here.>

Mar-07-08  ahmadov: You said I play chess well? Just see the game on my forum, which I lost like a patzer :-)
Mar-07-08  Tactic101: Hey Wannabe.

Is this the name of your invented opening: Boungcloud Attack.

Checked it on wiki.

Mar-08-08  brankat: <WannaBe> How did the Nako-WannaBe match go?

  WannaBe: <Tactic101> He stole my idea!!??!!??

<brankat> It was, unfortunately, canceled, by me... I was too busy, but we will try to hook up soon!!! <PROMISE>!!

  jessicafischerqueen: Good Afternoon.
Mar-09-08  UdayanOwen: A gambit usually involves the sacrifice of one or more pawns. The WannaBe gambit clearly differs, in that it's aim is apparently to sacrifice the King....

With this in mind, I'd suggest a variant I'll term the accelerated WannaBe gambit, which involves delaying the move Ke2 until a point where it is more effective:

1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5 3.Ke2???!! Qe4#

Mar-10-08  brankat: Yes, definitely an improvement!

  WannaBe: Okay, funny 'stories'...

Since I've gotten my "Li'l Joint" I've been 'shopping' myself around on-line, posted my resume, etc... Kinda wanna see who/what is biting/out there kind of a thing...

I've gotten quite a few 'responses', and some of them are genuine, example: "Dear <WannaBe>, we saw your resume on blahblah.com" etc, etc...

And then I get ones that begins with "Dear Candidate: ..." etc, etc... My 'reply' is this: "Dear Sir/Madam, I am not a Candidate, I have a name, and it's on the resume... Sincerely <WannaBe>" :-))

I just chuckle... and throw the 'garbage' ones in the trash...

Another 'funny' story... I had two guys in for lunch today, (today was my shift to work...) and they were talking about computers!!

(Of course, I know absolutely nothing about these electronic gizmos...) So we ended up talking about our experiences with computers and they ended up buying 4 more beers!!!!! :-))

Things are going 'OK'... Down my Li'L neck of the woods so far! =)

Praise Caissa!!!!

  WannaBe: Hello, night owl life style... :-)
Mar-11-08  suenteus po 147: <WannaBe> Thanks for the updates on 'Duma Key.' I really want to read it, but I have had zero time. I just finished 'Beloved' over my Spring Break, and now have begun Madame Bovary. There's just no time in my reading schedule for pure fun!
Mar-11-08  brankat: <WannaBe> <So we ended up talking about our experiences with computers and they ended up buying 4 more beers!!!!! :-))>

Let me guess: You paid for the beers :-)
