Jan-08-19 Domdaniel chessforum    Domdaniel: Blank Reg: "They said there was no future - well, this is it."      Jan-06-19 Kibitzer's Café    Domdaniel: Haaarry Neeeeds a Brutish Empire... https://youtu.be/ZioiHctAnac      Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977    Domdaniel: Maurice Kennefick died over the new year, 2018-2019. RIP. It was many years since I spoke to him. He gave up chess, I reckon, towards the end of the 80s, though even after that he was sometimes lured out for club games. I still regard this game, even after so many years, as the ...      Jan-06-19 Maurice Kennefick    Domdaniel: Kennefick died over the 2018-19 New Year. Formerly one of the strongest players in Ireland, he was the first winner of the Mulcahy tournament, held in honour of E.N. Mulcahy, a former Irish champion who died in a plane crash. I played Kennefick just once, and had a freakish win, ...      Jan-06-19 Anand vs Fedorowicz, 1990    Domdaniel: <NBZ> -- Thanks, NBZ. Enjoy your chortle. Apropos nothing in particular, did you know that the word 'chortle' was coined by Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland'? I once edited a magazine called Alice, so I can claim a connection. 'Chortle' requires the jamming ...      Jan-06-19 chessgames.com chessforum    Domdaniel: <al wazir> - It's not easy to go back through past Holiday Present Hunts and discover useful information. Very few people have played regularly over the years -- even the players who are acknowledged as best, <SwitchingQuylthulg> and <MostlyAverageJoe> have now ...      Jan-05-19 Wesley So    Domdaniel: Wesley is a man of his word. Once again, I am impressed by his willingness to stick to commitments.      Jan-04-19 G Neave vs B Sadiku, 2013    Domdaniel: Moral: if you haven't encountered it before, take it seriously. Remember Miles beating Karpov with 1...a6 at Skara. Many so-called 'irregular' openings are quite playable.      Dec-30-18 Robert Enders vs S H Langer, 1968   Domdaniel: <HMM> - Heh, well, yes. I also remembered that Chuck Berry had a hit with 'My Ding-a-ling' in the 1970s. I'm not sure which is saddest -- that the author of Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee and Teenage Wedding - among other short masterpieces - should sink to such ...      Dec-30-18 T Gelashvili vs T Khmiadashvili, 2001    Domdaniel: This is the game I mean: Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1922

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 194 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Bill> Heh. A <Dole> banana is a good banana. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: I'm not leaving till that <miserable git> gives a girl a "g'day". Jun-17-07    Open Defence: <Anthony Bourdain> i watch him on Discovery Travel and Living Channel here... Jun-17-07    WBP: <Jess> <A <Dole> banana is a good bananaYeah--something visually onomatopeic, I guess, about a Dole banana. And don't get me started about the last name of that great and thoroughly decent baseball player, Albert Pujols. Jun-17-07    Open Defence: so if viagra was sold in Iran it would just be called Dole ? looks like they got the ideal spokesman Jun-17-07    Domdaniel: <m> Wouldn't say I've been *following* Dr Who exactly, but I've seen a few episodes -- giant n-dimensional slugs and humanoid cats with Irish accents, and such -- and what I've seen has impressed me. One utterly transcendent moment. More than a year ago, when B.Piper was still the sidekick. The Doctor turns up in 18th century Versailles and falls in love with Madame de Pompadour -- who is, naturally, being hunted by clockwork time-travelling aliens who want to dissect her. There are some neat contemporary allusions to Jacques Vaucanson, who built a super-realistic quacking clockwork duck in 18th century France (yes, those Enlightenment bods knew how to let their hair down and enjoy an occasional mad passionate duck ...) And then there was one of the best lines of dialog I've ever heard. The last clockwork alien runs out of energy, judders to a halt, the knowledge of failure flickering in his android eyes. The Doctor looks at him gravely and says: "It's over. I'm not winding you up." Wow. I find that *so* exquisite. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Bob Dole's head looks like a withered old peanut to me. Is that relevant? Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: All right <Dom> if you don't gimme a "g'day" after being gone so long I'm going to <spam> your forum into a <blog for chewing gum appreciation> Just try me!! Jun-17-07    Open Defence: so mack is the notorious <m> ... is dom the perpendicular <eye> ? Jun-17-07    WBP: <Jess> <Bob Dole's head looks like a withered old peanut to me. Is that relevant?> I think introducing the word "head" into this discussion is potentially very dangerous. <Deffi> Hahahaha! Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Dangerous? Good Grief look at the last three pages. In fact, <Count> them even. There good be some <pruning>, which reminds me again of the <queen>. Miserable old prune. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: right, that's it. <Wrigley's Chewing Bum> is actually made out of <eels>, hence the name. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <kockaburras> don't actually live in <gum trees>. They lease them out to <wombats>. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Chewing Bum> was actually invented 5000 years ago by <Plato> Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Gum used to be made from <Brazilian Rubber Trees>, but now they use mainly an <extract from the pineal gland of the male adolescent iguana> (Apologies to Hunter S Thompson) Jun-17-07    WBP: <Jess> <<Chewing Bum> was actually invented 5000 years ago by <Plato>> LOL. You're terrible! Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Tal> used to chew gum so loudly during games that his opponents would sometimes take a captured piece and whip it at his forehead as hard as they could. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Bill> I wasn't kidding. I'll git a "g'day" out of that man if it kills me. Or him. Jun-17-07    Open Defence: <jess> chew on this.. how much gum can Xiangzhi Bu chew if Bu and Wu fought Kung Fu with Fu Manchu ? Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Welcome to CHEWINGBUM, the only online chess journal that thinks you should be <masticated without swallowing>!! Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Deffi> giggling here. Welcome to CHEWINGBUM!! Jun-17-07    Open Defence: chewing gum in a chess game is handy.. stick it on your opponents clock flag and he will run out of time.. Jun-17-07    WBP: You know, it does seem as though he's ignoring this discussion. (Solemnly) Sorry yet again, <Dom>, for trashing your forum. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Here is the Original CHEWINGBUM opening. 1.Nf3 Nf6 2.Ng1 Ng8 3.Nc3 Nc6 4.Nb1 Nc8... over and over. Hence, the appelation. Jun-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Heh well done <Deffi>. <Bill> never say sorry, especially in a blog about <chewing gum>.
