Jan-18-26 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: For what it's worth, both home teams (Saturday) covered the spread and the total went over. For the next 2 games: HOU 40.5 (Opened 41.5) NE -3.0 ML: -175/+145 LAR -3.5 (Opened -4.5) CHI 49.5 (Opened 51.5) ML: -198/+164      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. American country https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUB...      Jan-01-26 chessgames.com chessforum    WannaBe: That is weird, I posted the answer to <TGA> at 7PM Pacific/10 PM Eastern, and now it shows as I posted Jan 1 2026(???????)

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 503 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing> Apr-29-13    technical draw: : <Well, it could have been worse.> It was. Somebody stole all the players' car batteries. May-01-13    hangingenprise: say good-bye howard and gassol and... can mitch say rebuild? May-02-13    hangingenprise: wannabe: if howard pulled that bull.... on the celtics he would be thumbed and shown the door. if he wants to be mr. hollywood send him to hollywood florida. yes, i want him out of laker land! May-02-13    perfidious: <Jim>: Yes, Mandarich has been another mainstay near the top of those NFL 'biggest bust' lists. Seems to me it was noticed very early on that his hair was thinning, almost straight from university. Circumstantial evidence, it is true, but makes one wonder whether he juiced. May-03-13    Jim Bartle: I think Mandarich eventually admitted using steroids. May-03-13    chancho: They were even talking about Mandarich putting the gloves on to fight Tyson. That would have been a debacle. May-03-13    perfidious: <chancho> Never heard about that idea as far as I remember, but I agree: Tyson would have knocked him silly. May-03-13    chancho: Here's the Sports Illustrated cover of Mandarich with all the hype: http://i.cdn.turner.com/sivault/si_... May-03-13    chancho: http://www.strengthfighter.com/2012... May-06-13    OhioChessFan: Norway Moves Prediction Contest, sponsored by the legendary <chessmoron> and hosted in my forum, is now open. First round begins May 8th. Click on Elvis for details. May-09-13    technical draw: 499 pages...... May-09-13    WannaBe: <technical draw> You have someone on Ignore? I show 503. I already celebrated 500 a few pages ago. =)) May-10-13    technical draw: <<technical draw> You have someone on Ignore? I show 503. I already celebrated 500 a few pages ago. =))> Yipes, you're right. I put 2 on ignore "temporally ", and forgot about them. I cleared the list and see 503 pages now. May-10-13    technical draw: Of course in the legal sense I committed no crime because I just said, to wit, "499 pages". You inferred I meant there were 499 pages of comments on your forum so therefore you owe me an apology or $20, whichever comes first. May-10-13    OhioChessFan: I'm sorry <WannaBe> won't send you $20 May-10-13    TheFocus: Don't hold your breath waiting on an apology either. May-10-13    WannaBe: Ah, the importance of a comma. Make a short story long, a friend and I were discussing grammar the other day, and punctuations came up. (Especially the annoying comma) In the movie "Philadelphia Story", with K. Hepburn, J. Stewart and C. Grant, there is this exchange, toward the end of movie: Fiancee: "I expect a woman to behave, naturally." Ex-Husband retorts: "I expect a woman to behave naturally." Now, we take <OhioChessFan>'s post, and make minor modifications. <OhioChessFan>: I'm sorry, <WannaBe> won't send you $20 <OhioChessFan>? I'm sorry <WannaBe>, won't send you $20 Greatly different meanings. =) May-10-13    TheFocus: Without typing the whole joke, I'll just say: Panda. May-10-13    WannaBe: <TheFocus> Eats shoots and leaves? May-10-13    TheFocus: Yep. Panda. May-11-13    technical draw: What's black and white and red all over. A, An embarrassed Panda. May-11-13    NakoSonorense: <<OhioChessFan>? I'm sorry <WannaBe>, won't send you $20> I don't think there should be a comma in this instance. But panda is the answer! May-11-13    technical draw: <What's black and white and red all over. > The South African communist party. May-11-13    technical draw: From <WannaBe>'s bio: <13 consecutive 'Funniest Kibitzer' Caissar runner up, '05-'13.> I only count 9 not 13.
