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 714 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> May-09-11    Annie K.: <dakkie> that's fine, no hurry! :) May-09-11    Domdaniel: Feels like I'm shouting "Theatre" in a crowded fire. And I don't even like shouting. May-09-11    Annie K.: At least it involves a touch of culture. ;) Hmm. Try "Resistance is useless" (the Vogon version) instead? I understand one might like doing that sort of thing, if that's the sort of thing one likes to do. May-09-11    Domdaniel: I like to do nothing. May-09-11    Annie K.: Yes dear, and you also like being contrary. ;p May-10-11    OhioChessFan: <Given the choice between accomplishing something and just lying around, I'd rather lie around. No contest.> Eric Clapton May-11-11    mack: <Hmm. Solar Anus, fine, yup. But is it actually an *attack*? > It's an attack on the senses, yo May-11-11    achieve: I deleted my previous comment; silence is golden is my motto, for now. Maybe longer. Life will find a way. Appreciation to Gerry. May-11-11    Domdaniel: <It's an attack on the senses> Isn't everything? Sensing is defensing, comme on dit. Welcome back to the Umpire of the Senseless. May-14-11    Domdaniel: Sensei? May-14-11    OhioChessFan: Sing Sing's defenses: http://ic2.pbase.com/u38/kjosker/up... May-15-11    Domdaniel: I thought *Sing Sing* was the Singapore national anthem, penned by Neil Diamond ("Sing Sing a-pore/ Everybody happy/ Sing Sing a-pore/ We all clappy clappy ... City of the Lion/ I got a tune to sell/ As long as they're buyin'/ Who cares if it's Disneyland with the death penalty") May-18-11    Domdaniel: All quiet. I've lost it, haven't I? Only the *paracme* ('beyond the point') remains - the stage of decline or senescence reached when development stops. Unless I can wriggle into an ending, mebbe. May-18-11    hms123: <Dom> Maybe you need to get out more. May-18-11    Domdaniel: <h> That is good advice. If I don't follow up on it, it's only because *out* and I have history. And I've never even seen an agora to be phobic of. No, out is out. But I'll try less in. May-18-11    hms123: <Dom> There's a <less in> in this for all of us. I could use some less in myself. May-18-11    Domdaniel: That's *le premier less in* as we say in the French. May-18-11    hms123: Speaking of which, check out the team game. It is getting innaresting. May-19-11    Domdaniel: < It is getting innaresting.> Excellent. I don't know those MacCutcheon positions well, but Black was doing fine last time I peeked. Meanwhile, *Don Edificio* the Moorish Edifice is doing my head in. Again. That unique stubbornness, that mulish bombast, that theophrastic, euphuistic, argh. May-19-11    hms123: <Dom> Jinx! I just dropped by to express that same sentiment. My solution is not to respond to him. He is a dunderhead. (Now there's a word I haven't used in a while..but it seems to fit.) May-19-11    Domdaniel: <hms> I read your message after having Scent Mine. May-19-11    OhioChessFan: <Maybe you need to get out more.> Nobody gets out of Sing Sing. May-19-11    Annie K.: <Dom: <All quiet. I've lost it, haven't I?>> You know you haven't. :) PS - re: "asset" - I believe you are correct. Heh. May-21-11    Domdaniel: Sat 21st, 6pm. Hmmm. Ditto, 6.20pm. I think the rain is easing off. Must be all that lava. May-21-11    OhioChessFan: I thought it was Eastern Standard Time. Relax for another 4 hours.
