Jan-19-26 Chessgames - Sports   WannaBe: I made a math error in my last post, so I deleted it.      Jan-16-26 WannaBe chessforum   WannaBe: 12m in. Not impressed      Jan-16-26 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: Zed's dead. Zed's dead. (if one is to go down the 'Pulp Fiction' path) "That is A tasty burger!!"      Jan-14-26 Chessgames - Odd Lie    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.      Jan-14-26 Dickson    WannaBe: Apparently, it was a "far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known"      Jan-12-26 Fischer vs V Pupols, 1955    WannaBe: I was thinking baseball bat, tire iron, or brass knuckles.      Jan-11-26 Tata Steel Masters (2026)    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      Jan-06-26 Atterdag chessforum    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.      Jan-04-26 OhioChessFan chessforum   WannaBe: This is for you, with some deeper insight on drone productions, Russian, and now with the cut-off of oil from certain S.

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 496 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing> Feb-14-13    Jim Bartle: I used to play lots of pickup games on that floor, when it was still called Harmon Gym and was a snakepit. Saw the Hazzard-Goodrich Broons beat Cal there 58-56, a great game. Feb-14-13    WannaBe: Yikes, lost by 13... Could be a rough trip, at Tree/Stanford next. Feb-15-13    WannaBe: Flakers getting beat by the Clippers... Down 21 points, end of third quarter; Ouch. Feb-15-13    WannaBe: Maybe they are just "bad luck"? http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sidesho... Feb-15-13    Jim Bartle: Unhinged announcer at a Spanish league game: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zijh7E... What he keeps repeating at the end is, "Tell me I'm not dreaming!" Some amazing shooting, too. Feb-15-13    WannaBe: For you iPad users, AppStore have Chess Free HD that's pretty good. Keeps me amused in single player mode (vs. computer) also have two player mode for internet play. New update due next week for iOS 6.1.2 security patches and possible MS Exchange chokin' issue. iOS Update article: http://news.yahoo.com/apple-release... MS Exchange article: http://www.networkworld.com/news/20... Feb-15-13    hms123: <WannaBe> You can also get free Stockfish: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sto... Also, I have this chess clock: http://utility.appdownloadreview.co... Feb-15-13    WannaBe: <hms123> Thanks! Getting stockfish right now. (Gonna do more 'Testing' later =) Feb-15-13    hms123: <WannaBe> BTW, you can sync up pgn files to the Stockfish app through itunes. I figured it out at one point and it worked well. I haven't tried to do that in a while, but I am sure you can figure it out yourself. If not, I can go back in and see what I did. Feb-15-13    WannaBe: <hms123> I'll see if I can "test" that feature out, too. =) Feb-19-13    WannaBe: News: Apple released iOS 6.1.2 for Exchange and battery patches. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1639 Further News: iOS Jailbreak will be released later today. http://news.yahoo.com/ios-6-1-2-jai... =)) Feb-20-13    WannaBe: Tonight, on ESPN (10:30E/7:30P) BOS 194 LAL -7 I have placed all my life savings with ChessBookie on Boston. 5 Stars guaranteed lock of the decade. Feb-20-13    NakoSonorense: The Lakers are up 2-0. You better start praying! Feb-20-13    WannaBe: Oh, great Buddhda, please stop the game now, Flakers win and Celtics cover the spread. I will burn millions of incent sticks in your honour. Feb-21-13    OhioChessFan: Thanks <Wabbit> Knowing your past history of predictions, I mortgaged my house and put it all on the Lakers. Feb-21-13    perfidious: <OCF> Good call. Feb-21-13    WannaBe: New Yahoo site/home page sucks. It used to be, I can easily change my news location from San Mateo to Long Beach to Sioux Falls. Now I can't even navigate around the d@ng place. I like to right click on a link/pic and open in new tab, after I am done browsing the home/main page, I then read each article, instead of arrow back/forward. (Because for some reason, certain sites can't remember the fact that I am 1/2 way down their long-ass'd home page, and I have to re-scroll to my previous location.) Now on Yahoo's home page, certain links you can right click and open in new tab, others you can't do diddly-squat. Nothing is more annoying than a page that have different behaviour from link to link. That's all I have to say about that. Feb-21-13    NakoSonorense: <...open in new tab, after I am done browsing the home/main page, I then read each article, instead of arrow back/forward.> Ha, I do the same. But I can still do it on the new Yahoo! homepage. Instead of right-clicking, though, I use the scroll wheel as a button to open the link in a new tab. This doesn't work for you? Feb-21-13    WannaBe: <NakoSonorense> Thanks!! Just tried it, and found out that if I wheel 'click', it opens up in a new tab. =) Feb-22-13    NakoSonorense: Did I just teach the legendary <WannaBe> something about computers? Woo hoo! Feb-22-13    WannaBe: Did you know, Robert Lincoln, son of Abe, was once saved by the brother of John W. Booth, Edwin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_... Also, he was somewhat of a bad luck when it come to presidents and assassinations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert... Feb-25-13    WannaBe: Truly amazing movie making skills: http://www.razzies.com/history/12wi... Feb-27-13    WannaBe: OKC Thunders 119, NO Hornets 74. Ouch, Ouch, Ouch, Ouch, Ouch... That's gotta sting, maybe the name change to Pelicans could not come earlier/sooner. Feb-28-13    WannaBe: I love the last 2 paragraph: http://espn.go.com/blog/playbook/te... For a price of almost $300 dollars, (smart phone and accessories not included), you too can improve your game. I do have a final question, does the ball need battery/batteries to operate? I am guessing yes, how else would it have the power to transmit data out? If so, how do I replace the battery and how much is it? Is it extra? Can I buy replacements at my local Radio Shack? Sears? Frys Electronics? Office Depot?? Feb-28-13    WannaBe: U-G-L-Y http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas...
