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 J 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

Frogspawn: Levity's Rainbow

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 395 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: Are there any *shortshoremen* or is length mandatory? Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: In Capablanca's handwritten note resigning the game and conceding the world championship to Dr Alekhine, he said "Mes compliments a Mme Alekhine". It seems the redhead is a ringer. If she was the real deal she'd have called herself 'madame'. Don't think she's schtolen any sticks, though. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: <Jess> If I send part 3 of the emu will you stop deleting me? I'll explain in the submarine. Aug-22-08    Red October: <There is also no Korean word for "alcoholism." > ok that settles it, we're moving to Korea Aug-22-08    jessicafischerqueen: <Domo> Yes I'll stop deleting you on special EMU request, but I don't delete anything until it's been up long enough for me and others to read and enjoy. I'm just trying to keep the <chess analysis> on the "perma-page" as long as possible. However, I do understand that your posts take a good deal of work and I consider them "art." Possible "win win" solution-- reposting them all when I reply to you here so the writing is not "lost" when I clean up my house. <take Mckmac> Well I don't know about that-- but I no longer enjoy playing chess against friends at <CG.com> for some reason. I love playing friends OTB but in Internet Chess I find that the "company of strangers" is less harrowing. Don't know why either. Aug-22-08    Mrs. Alekhine: <Domdaniel: <her eh dress> Cap tin Bee fart, again: "I knew you were under duress I knew you were under your dress" > heh... Aug-22-08    Harvestman: <Dom>. With your permission, I'd like to start a Frogspawn competition: Guess the missing word. Let's start with "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" Being what?! I hate it when people miss words off the end of sentences. It make me really Aug-22-08    Insane Olde Batte: Harvest <Milan Kilimanjaro's> original title was "The Unberable Lightness of Bees," and there was a mix-up at the printers and they decided it would cost too much to fix it. Bees are in fact very light, so I believe MYSTERY SOLVED? <domdaniel> do you know that I am banned from 4 forums already and I've only posted like 10 times? Is that good? I'm a newbie, so I don't "know the ropes" really. Aug-22-08    jessicafischerqueen: "On the Decay of Lying" by Oscar Wilde Lying where??!! In the wrong places, I fear-- given what they did to the poor sod. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: "The Unbearable Lightness of Being and Nothingness" -- soundtrack by Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Gifted and Black. Black joined the Pixies. The others were lost in crystal canyons, apparently. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: <Ins. O. Batte> Yep, that's good. I rarely go out, so I have no idea where I'm banned. Aug-22-08    Red October: < Domdaniel: <Ins. O. Batte> Yep, that's good. I rarely go out, so I have no idea where I'm banned. > yup! I bet you enjoyed it when cg.com locked you in your forum.. they should have locked you out of it ;-p Aug-22-08    Harvestman: "You don't understand. I'm not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with me" - Rorschach Aug-22-08    positionalgenius: <harvest> I guess your referring to the upcoming film "watchmen". Aug-22-08    Harvestman: Well, yes, the character anyway. I'm only familiar with the graphic novel. I'm not sure which is scarier - being locked in with Rorschach, or being trapped in the Frogspawn forum with all the other inmates. Aug-22-08    Harvestman: In typing that last, I mis-typed and found myself with the fascinating word "Grogspawn". I couldn't bring myself to leave it in that context, but I do feel that it needs sharing, nonetheless. It seems evocative, somehow. I'm just not sure what, precisely, it evokes. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: Surely that's "The Company of Stranglers" by Jean-Paul Sartre? <mckmac> I find that word "job" strangely upsetting. If I believed in obscenity it might very well be an example. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: <Locked in my forum> Yes, I felt just like Antonin Artaud during World War 2. Locked in a lunatic asylum when all the insanity was outside. That was after he journeyed to Mexico and Ireland looking for the actual stick used by Jesus Christ to fight off demons in the desert. A bit like <Indiana Jones and the Theatre and its Double>, rilly. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: I find this hard to believe myself, but my last post was actually true. Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: <Oscar Wilde> Mention of whom reminds me of the epitaph allegedly penned by Swinburne. Warning: the high intellectual tone of today's Frogspawn may be about to take a tumble. "When Oscar came to join his God Not earth to earth but sod to sod It was for sinners such as this Hell was created bottomless." Aug-22-08    Domdaniel: A film version of Arkham Asylum would be great -- best of the post-'Dark Knight' Batman graphic novels. They'd have to dig up Heath Ledger, though, for credibility. Maybe wait until computers can animate dead actors convincingly and team him with Brando as Batman and Marilyn Monroe as Robin. Aug-22-08    Boomie: <Domdaniel: <Locked in my forum>> They shoulda thrown away the key. Or at least split it with me. Aug-22-08    Boomie: <Hell was created bottomless.> Well, at least he kept his shirt on. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <mckmac> - <Uneffable> I think you'll find most things can be effed, if you really want to. I wouldn't care to try this personally, however. <Some effing challenges> include: The Horsehead nebula The South Atlantic The 1960 Chinese Table-tennis squad The ghost of Attila the Hun The desert of the real The lay of the last minstrel The day the Earth stood still Aug-23-08    mckmac: mack is right,you have the heart of a midget,buried by the brain of a big fat giant.
