Hi <branko> thanks for the "heads up."

I read the whole thread-- interesting study in "internet discussion psychology" to be sure...

I didn't find anything particularly offensive there.

<Women don't like chess> was said. Well, some do. I'm a woman and I like chess. So there's one. <Deffi> likes chess. There's two.

and BATCHIMEG TUVSHINTUGS!! heh

You should see them go at each other in the <Carlsen> forum these days.

<dom> I really enjoyed reading your anecdote. Poingant and hilarious.

Hi <Dr. Euwe>!! You'll be pleased to know I own a "hand bag" but I almost never use it cuz I wear jeans or slacks to work. They got pokkits.

Sometimes I wear my "hand gun" though.

That's phonetic Dutch!

Unreal....

wheeeeeeeee

heh

U2- I just saw them perform a song on my new favorite TV show <Entourage>.

All the episodes are on free vid.

Yours 2 ?

(I'm mad)

I blame societé.

Lars can really be a pest sometimes, but (he) is becoming an uncle now so I should cut him some slack.

Please extend my congratulations to <Lars>!

As an <Ant> myself, I can tell him it's a lot of fun.

BTW I'm sticking with it. I've dragged myself up from a <1000> rating on <chessmaster> and I'm now a <TOWERING 1169>!!

It's only confidence...

PLUS they are nobody's invention and you are sammabaddy!

Rememmebera datta!

(I easily maintain at 2000+ [with opening book - without, I'd drop] so you should get up sooner rather than later)

Hi <Pianoplayer> yes, I know.

If you look carefully at the top of my profile you will see that the first part is an <epitaph> I made for him.

It's because he died that I made my Profile a center to honor and share <Bobby Fischer> with others.

he was my favorite chess player, and the reason I started playing chess in the first place.

Hmmm.. It seems that <Pianoplayer> deleted his post.

Oh well thenk you for dropping by- and feel free to post here again any time.

A wonderful post "Cavett and chess buffs replay Bobby Fischer’s story" by Caroline N. Jackson in 'The Villager' (Volume 77 / Number 41 - March 12 - 18, 2008). ;)

Thanks for sharing <brankat>! :)

I, like many others, was very moved when Cavett's 'NYT Blog' tribute post to Bobby first came out...

"Was It Only a Game?" - February 8, 2008... // http://cavett.blogs.nytimes.com/200...

As well as his (Cavett's) follow-up to his original Blog post to acknowledge the incrediable feedback that he had received...

"Bobby and You" - February 22, 2008... // http://cavett.blogs.nytimes.com/200...

The word <touching> here is an understatement! ;)

If I can just draw but a small portion of Cavett's innermost feelings when I write and construct, "My Day with Bobby" - I shall be very pleased indeed! :-)

I've already constructed an overall plan... First write all the facts down as I vividly remember them. Second to recheck my facts on items that can be verified (times, dates, places and miscellaneous, etc.). Third to weave the story in the way I wish to tell it (as it includes many flashbacks preceding my adventures to travel to Santa Monica in 1966 to meet and see Bobby, as well as the internal flashbacks within the main story structure itself). Fourth - the first 'Rough Draft' followed by my usual <polishing> - ad infinitum... Last but not least, the best pics I can find or have already found to enhance, 'My Day with Bobby!' ;)

Rest assured Jess - when the 'polishing phase' commences... I'll send you a draft copy labeled <For Your Eyes Only> - a promise is a <promise>! :^)

My Best Always, - Mal

thanks for those links <Mal>!!

And I'm so excited about reading your piece I can't describe it!!

I did it!!
