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 397 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Aug-23-08    jessicafischerqueen: <Grand Wazoo> I've always wanted to meet him. I met the <Grand Piano> once. Nice chap. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: "I am not a free man. I am a number." Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: Numb and number. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <got mail> If I ever get mailer - as in norman - watch out. Aug-23-08    Red October: I think that was worthy of being posted in <Joe's> forum Aug-23-08    Boomie: The Dominator, Brankat and JFQ conspiring to bring mirth into the world. Diabolical!. What's the deal with Mac the Knife? I can't find any triggers that set him off. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <Jess> Ping. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <Harv> Never mind if there's a flaw -- I can't find one, and an engine would rather explode than accept the bungee rule. Your insanely complex position is very beautiful, like bungee jumping from Chartres Cathedral with a rare spider's web. Possibly suicidal too. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <Boomie> -- <triggers> Try saying "You got a light, mack?" in a firm but slightly menacing tone, like a 1950s teddyboy after ten pints of gin-and-cider. If you mean the recursive one - mcmckmackmc - the world's his trigger. Or so it seems. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: Speaking of Chartres Cathedral, didn't Henry Adams write a book about it, a century or so ago? With a title that applies - almost, kinda, sorta - to this alleged sockpuppet triangle involving JFQ, Brankat and possibly even moi: <The Virgin and the Dynamo>. No saying who is which, if indeed any. Other relevant novels from the period are <Three Men in a Boat> and <Locus Solus>. Aug-23-08    jessicafischerqueen: It's a chapter in a really big book. It's well known in "history of psychiatry" and, apparently, your circles as well. Lesser known are the other 300 chapters. (well to me, anyway-- they forced me to read the Virgin and the Dynamo in 19th century American Literature Crass-- I doubt I'll get to the rest of the Chapters any time soon.) It's a multivolume <History of America> in fact and the best "subjective" display of historiography since <Churchill's> BRITAIN (where he simply assumes Robin Hood existed-- heh). Psychoanalytic literary scholarship is interested in this chapter, for the same reason they are interested in his relative's <The Turn of the Shoe>... Mythographers also enjoy the <Virgin Moscow Dynamo Hockey Club> chapter for reasons so obvious I've forgotten what they are now. Theologians, unaccountably, take a dim view of such nonsense. Aug-23-08    jessicafischerqueen: In Canada, you'll be pleased to know that we refer to <Frasier Crane's> seminal naturalist short story as <Three Men and Aboot>. Aug-23-08    jessicafischerqueen: Neither <The Virgin and the Dynamo> nor <Three Men in a Boat> is a novel. However, the idea that they are novels is in fact novel. Mrs. Pedant Frogspawn 19th Century American Literature Department Aug-23-08    jessicafischerqueen: Actually, you may have noticed that <Churchill> lived after <James> had died. Negating all of my points. Never mind then! Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <Jess> My circles, in the Adams case, are those of a part-time Pynchonista. Adams refers to himself (at least in 'The Education of Henry Adams') in the 3rd person, as does a Pynchon character named Stencil. Everything is some kind of plot. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: No, Churchill was nearly immortal. Victory at Blenheim, built a big castle, couple of centuries boozing, off to the Boer war for a bracing pick-me-up, then First Lord of the Admirable Creighton, Winnie the Pooh, a 1965 five-shilling piece, and a state funeral. Thatch should be so lucky. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: For sockpups, we seem to exchange a lot of datums. One of those street persons mumbling conspiracies to itself, perhaps? What happens if we fall in the forest? Aug-23-08    hoodrobin: <jess> <Dom> If Churchill assumes Robin Hood existed, he may just go wrong, imo. Sorry for interfering. Aug-23-08    Boomie: What is the sound of one sock puppy babbling after falling in the forest? Boomie the Koanhead Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <hoodrobin> You exist, don't you? QED. Interference patterns just tend to make things more interesting. "Have you met them? The poor? Wonderful people, but frightfully ... you know ... poor." - Robin Hood Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: Does anyone know why (a) the airport in Nottingham is called East Midlands, while (b) there is a Robin Hood Airport miles away in Hull, and (c) a Robinhood Industrial Estate in Dublin, which isn't even on the same island? Odd. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <Boomie> You admit it? - Hey, guys - no need to waterboard the sockpuppets. This one is squeaking. Now give us the rest, Boomster. Cut a deal. You know who your friends are. Aug-23-08    Domdaniel: <1.d4 e6 2.c4 Bb4+> "You can, guru, you can." Aug-23-08    hms123: <punch line> I left my heart in Sam Fran's disco. --hms (who may or may not be HMS) Aug-23-08    Boomie: <Domdaniel: <Boomie> You admit it? - Hey, guys - no need to waterboard the sockpuppets. This one is squeaking. Now give us the rest, Boomster. Cut a deal. You know who your friends are.> We shall never give up. We shall never surrender. I blame the IPod people planting aliens seeds in our pointy little heads. I come from the Planet Janet and serve The Big Head who is so great he eats when he's hungry and drinks when he's thirsty.
