Well I don't expect any of them either.
I blame society, mainly.
My best,

| Jun-22-08 | | achieve: Hey Mrs. <tells it like it is> Excellent reply at the <tampoon> page to the jerk who complained about his NON Preemy status, or whatever BS he wrote... heh <cheapskater> - you held back remarkably well... If I had a kid that ungrateful, I'd show him every corner of the room, IE, I couldn't possibly raise a spoilt brat like that, so the assumption is a bit silly. Well - I'm still learning... BUT I HATE SPOILT BRATS!! |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: Hi <Doctor Euwe>!!
Just waxing a few voles here, tidying.
I noticed you've been mixing it up agains with <Frogger> on the <Magnus Dei> page. Unbelievable, that guy is the most boring pedantic insufferable appallingly dull miserable poster in history. I posted somenting to him and then deleted it, as I don't need any extra truble. I got a scandalous post deleted at <Frogspawn> last night... Stupid anti-swear word program....
I also noticed a whole pile of the usual slander against <The Wheeler>. I'd like to see every one of them spend eternity having to play <The Wheeler> OTB in person and if they lost they got a good spanking. Unbelievable when Patxers malign GMs.
Except for <Leko>... |
|
| Jun-22-08 | | achieve: Yeah <The Wheeler> got bashed again... seems fashionable... the bloody insufferable @#$%heads. Let him enjoy <Doormouse> one more time... Or is it Spark up your ass? Van wely was ranked about 30th IN THE WORLD last year -- that's being a mightily strong player, obviously. <Unbelievable, that guy is the most boring pedantic insufferable appallingly dull miserable poster in history.> Good start ... |

In The Guardian, London Febr. 21, 2006, George Monbiot wrote an article "When it won't need a tyranny to deprive us of our freedom". In it he reported about the Ohio company City-Watcher who had implanted radio transmitters into the arms of two of its workes. The implants ensured that only these workers could enter a stromgroom. The company that makes these radio frequency identification tags is the VeriChip Corporation. They say the chips could be implanted in hospital patients, children and people who are mentally ill. The could be implanted into everybody ... |

Laughing at bad Chinese translations into English is perhaps the lowest form of humor. Despite this, I have spent the last half hour or so laughing until I cried at things like these: http://www.engrish.com/detail.php?i...

| Jun-22-08 | | Waitaka: <jessica> Did you read the book "the red pill"? (I dont know if this is the title in English, I translated it from portuguese). It is a collection of articles analysing several aspects of the first Matrix movie. There are serious analisys of computers dominating man, made by serious people. |

| Jun-22-08 | | edda zeitz: <Eyal: "Sunshine through the Rain"> I have seen "Yume" only once (about ten years ago), but I never forgot the first dream about the boy and the foxes. |

| Jun-22-08 | | Waitaka: The original book title is "taking the red pill". |

| Jun-22-08 | | WBP: Hi <Jess>! I try to keep my flat respectable, that's why I don't post there. BTW, here are my elf and hobbit names: elf name: Fingolfin Tinehtele
hobbit name: Podo Danderfluff
These will be useful when I go undercover |

Heh-- I laughed my face off... thanks for introducing me to the whacky world of <Engrish.com>. I'll send my regards to VAncouver's fine "Flamboyant Health Food Store" in Little Korea when I go home for vacation. |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Eddo> and <Waikataka> Thank you both so much for the chilling heads up on the Computers taking over Humans topic. I haven't read either of the sources you listed, but I'll certainly keep my eyes open. I found the Matrix to be very chilling. Probably because I spend every free waking hour studying chess and watching movies on the Internet, Oh oh... |

Heh I got a gut laugh from that one...
I heard you are free now?
I hope you will join us more when you can. You are sorely missed by all, as you can probably tell. |

| Jun-23-08 | | Eyal: <bad translations into English> My all time favorite is the one from a Copenhagen airline ticket office: <We take your bags and send them in all directions> Some close contenders - In a Paris hotel elevator: <Please leave your values at the front desk> In a hotel in Athens: <Visitors are expected to complain at the office between the hours of 9 and 11 AM daily> In a Japanese hotel: <You are invited to take advantage of the chambermaid> In the lobby of a Moscow hotel across from a Russian Orthodox monastery: <You are welcome to visit the cemetery where famous Russian and Soviet composers, artists, and writers are buried daily except Thursday> |

| Jun-23-08 | | Ziggurat: <Eyal> Those are great. I have two other big favourites from China: At a Bank of China office in Lhasa (according to Lonely Planet) <Question authority> At a handicap WC in Shanghai <Deformed man toilet> |

| Jun-23-08 | | notyetagm: Mieses vs Reshevsky, 1935 From the Wikipedia page on the chess tactic <ZWISHCENZUG> located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwisch...: <Mieses-Reshevsky, 1935  click for larger view
Position before 29. Nd4
A zwischenzug occurred in this game between Jacques Mieses and Sammy Reshevsky. From the position in the diagram, play continued: 29. Nd4 Bxd4
30. cxd4
 click for larger viewWhite must have expected 30... Qxd4 31. Qxc4 Re1+ and then 32. Kg2 gets him out of trouble, but Black has a zwishenzug: 30... Re4!
 click for larger viewMaking a double attack on the d-pawn and preventing the capture of his own pawn. Now if 31. Qxc4, 31... Re1+ forces 32. Rxe1 and White loses his queen (Chernev 1965:211).> (VAR) Position after 31 ♕c2xc4?? ♖e4-e1+! 32 ♖c1x♖e1 ♕d5x♕c4 <fork-overload trick>

 click for larger viewOne of the best examples I have ever seen that <THERE IS ALWAYS DANGER NO MATTER HOW SIMPLE THE POSITION MAY SEEM>. Here Mieses probably never even imagined that the innocent-looking 29 ♘f3-d4?! would cost him a pawn and the game after the brilliant <ZWISCHENZUG> 30 ... ♖e8-e4!. |

 | | Domdaniel: <There are serious analisys of computers dominating man, made by serious people.> I don't doubt it. But what is a 'serious' person? When, for example, a Russian tells me "You are not serious person" it feels different from Portuguese or English versions. I don't seem to do serious in any language. I *do* know, however, how to spoil a brat. Wait for hot, clammy weather, turn off all fridges and air conditioners, and chain the brat to the back porch. It'll go off in a few hours and be well spoiled overnight. Doesn't 'brat' also mean brother in Russian? And 'flag' in Gaelic? Never mind, they'll spoil too. |
