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

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 713 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> May-07-11    Annie K.: Heh - I'm not sure how young <Dom> is this year, but he was 52 last year. ;) <Ohio> you're in good form! :D May-07-11    achieve: 19's your lucky number? hehe May-07-11    achieve: Oh, my post was intended to follow chancho's. What a delightful Jinx. Leap year, anyone? May-07-11    Domdaniel: Nah, 57 = 3 x 19. I said 'prime', which restricts us to, say, the sequence 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61 ... And I said 'prime of form 4n+1' which limits it further to 41, 53, 61, 73... And I ain't in my forties, sixties, or seventies. That should be sufficient. And thanks anyway, Chancho. May-07-11    chancho: <Dom> I did not read through the thread regarding the prime thing. My bad! I just made a guess. ;-) So a very happy 53rd. :) May-07-11    achieve: 4n+1 escaped me at first. The dreaded 13 again. I need to brush up. May-07-11    Domdaniel: Could be The Year of the Joker, I suppose. As in 53 playing cards. May-07-11    Annie K.: (Much) better a joker than a joke. :) May-07-11    Domdaniel: This is true. We know a lot of funny stuff but we try not to know any jokes. May-07-11    OhioChessFan: Joker (Computer) May-07-11    chancho: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yle... May-07-11    Domdaniel: Can never make my mind up about that Steve Miller song ... all musical and lyrical cliches, empty pomposity, everything that's wrong with classical guitar rock. And yet ... it *is* kinda catchy. May-07-11    chancho: <Dom> lol May-07-11    Domdaniel: In one of his Polar Bear videos (now posted on Youtube as <krakkaskak>) GM Henrik Danielsen has this advice: "Do something about your problems while they are small ... you can use this strategy also with money and with women". Not quite sure what he means by small women. Lost in translation, maybe. http://youtu.be/RRqrOj0j5io May-08-11    crawfb5: <Not quite sure what he means by small women. Lost in translation, maybe.> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWMf... May-08-11    Domdaniel: Ah, of course. *Lethal* women. May-08-11    moronovich: Or due to Danielsen is right now living in the land of the elves.. May-08-11    Domdaniel: Hasn't he got a gnome to go to? May-08-11    moronovich: I thought it was called a gmnorm ? And of these he has 3. Like in an irish pawn centre. May-08-11    Domdaniel: Ah, the <human gmnorm project>. Now I understand. May-08-11    OhioChessFan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R20f... May-08-11    OhioChessFan: http://lifeasthewife.files.wordpres... May-09-11    Annie K.: <Dom> so what have you been up to recently, anyhoo? :) Btw, sweet, I realize that I haven't been giving you much feedback on the books I've read on your recommendation... but I don't want to "spoil" them for anybody else who may also want to read them. May-09-11    dakgootje: I might want to read them - but I simply do not have the time, so spoil away! :D Also, miss Annie, I got your massage - but I'm still busy draining 3 other bogs. However, we Dutch are fairly competent at fighting the she so perhaps in a few weeks..
