|
Jan-31-12
| | moronovich: Thanks a lot <virginmind> ! It was a pleasure to watch and not as thrilling as it could have been (the final,I mean). And how are you doing at the moment !? |
|
| Jan-31-12 | | virginmind: i'm pretty well, thanks, and hope you're fine too. contemplating some extremely low temperatures we have lately - but apparently it's on a larger european scale. you never know what to expect with this global warming - i wonder if it will lead to the other extreme in a few months: an utterly hot summer... |
|
| Feb-10-12 | | brankat: <moronovich> How have You been? I assume You are following the Aeroflot. Should be quite an interesting tournament. It be even more entertaining if we could cash some bets :-) |
|
| Feb-16-12 | | brankat: Hi Moro! How are things? |
|
Feb-16-12
| | moronovich: Hi´<brankat>!
Thanks for stopping by.also the other day.And things are fine and I am looking forward to the spring which I think will arrive early this year.(You heard it first here;) Didn´t follow Aeroflot that closely.DRR
is more my cup of tea these days,said the spoiled citizen :).Tried a comeback at the bookies,came close,but no cigar and now all that is left is this love/hate relation to the loanshark.... And how are you doing !? Re(van)couvering after a long winter ?... See you around anyway and take care:) |
|
| Feb-16-12 | | wordfunph: <But when I showed the one with Wesley
So to my wife, she asked : "who is the guy next to wordfunph ? ". Women.>
amigo <moronovich>, you made my day ahaha! thank you.. |
|
| Feb-16-12 | | brankat: <Moro> After such a harsh winter in Europe this year, You guys deserve an early, warm and balmy spring :-) Here, in Vancouver there was no real winter so far. One day of a little bit of snow. About 10 days with the temperature between 0 - 7C. The rest was all like nice, warm Fall. The Bookie's game is only about half way through. So, there is still hope. As they say: Hope dies last :-) |
|
| Feb-17-12 | | virginmind: hi <moronovich>, well, it didnt affect me much (other than stucking my car for 2 weeks and draining the battery in the process:) and thanks for the kind words. as about the future rr tournament i really have no idea which and when it will be, hopefully we wont have to wait long for it. all the best to you too! |

| Mar-05-12 | | brankat: <moronovich> Here are a few amusing quotes for Your entertainment: "Up to this point White has been following well-known analysis. But now he makes a fatal error: he begins to use his own head." -– Siegbert Tarrasch
"I wasn't sure what square to take the rook to. Because there were three alternatives (e8, d8 and c8), I decided to go for the middle one." -– Jan Timman
"One of my favorite annotations is: All pieces participate in the attack!" -– Bent Larsen |

Heh,heh !
And this reminds me about this weekend
were I came close to big winnings on
the horses(Sweden,V75)due to a mistake
I played nr.1(whic was not my intention,nr.6 it should have been),but as the race started nr.6.was soon disqualified and at the finnishline the longshot nr 1 (27:1)was just a few centimeters away from winning ;)... |
|
| Mar-06-12 | | brankat: Yes, the same thing happened to me a few times at the racetrack. In a few chess games, too :-) |
|
| Mar-10-12 | | brankat: Not specifically about Chess, but..
"The will to win is important, but the will to prepare is vital." –- Joe Paterno
"A man who is well prepared has already fought half the battle." -– Cervantes
"The more we study the more we discover our ignorance." -– Percy Shelley |
|
| Mar-10-12 | | brankat: And some more:
"If a person understands the nature of reality then no commandments are necessary. But if a person doesn’t understand what’s really happening, then ten times ten times ten commandments won’t be enough." -– N.N.
"Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification." -– Martin Fischer
"It is necessary to try to surpass oneself always; this occupation ought to last as long as life." -– Christina, Queen of Sweden |

Here is one of my all time favourites. You are probably familiar with it :-) "The only problem with the Sicilian Defence is that you sometimes get mated." - IM Erling Mortensen
Probably the same with every other opening :-) |
|
Mar-11-12
| | moronovich: Morning <brankat> ! Thank you for your quotes.I really do appreciate them. And the one by Erling is quite saying about how the sicilian can turn out.
As being a devoted "sicilian" myself I know it is living on the edge. "The danger is not me starring at the abyss
but when the abyss is starring at me"
----moro---- |
|
| Mar-11-12 | | brankat: <moronovich>
"When You stand on the edge of a Precipice You see the Abyss,
But You also see very far."
--- Me.
For a moment (more than a moment), yesterday, I thought that You and IM Mortensen had a lot in "common" :-) |
|
Mar-11-12
 | | SwitchingQuylthulg: The difference is that <moronovich> would sweep IM Mortensen off the board :-) |
