Apr-07-26 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5      Apr-06-26 Fusilli chessforum   WannaBe: You too <Fusilli>      Apr-05-26 Chessgames - Odd Lie   WannaBe: Gotta double-triple check for typos in the future, what is "coving my neighbor's wife"?? Are we doves?      Apr-01-26 OhioChessFan chessforum   WannaBe: <OCF> I will now have be a wabbit and dig dipper into Camp Washington Chili. Never hoid of them, don't know if they are canned, fast food, grocery store, etc. Will keep you updated.      Mar-21-26 Chessgames - TV and Films    WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.      Mar-18-26 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: <plang> Do you have a link to where you got that information/data from? I would love to read it for myself.      Mar-16-26 WannaBe chessforum    WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"      Mar-13-26 chessgames.com chessforum    WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...      Mar-11-26 Sebastien Feller    WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).      Mar-05-26 G Timoscenko vs Karpov, 1967   WannaBe: So, strictly out of "Morbid Curiosity", I requested an analysis of the position: 1) +12.62 (22 ply) 55...Ke6 56. Nc6 Bg2 57. Nxa7 Ba8 58. Nc6 Kd7 59. Ne5+ Ke6 60. Nxg6 Be4 61. b6 f4 62. Nxf4+ Kf5 63. g6 Kg4 64. b7 Kxg3 65. b8=Q Kf3 66. g7 Bh7 67. g8=Q Bxg8 68. Qxg8 Ke3 69. a7 Ke4 ...

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 535 OF 754 ·  Later Kibitzing> Oct-09-14    ljfyffe: I've heard that they may finally be getting a hockey team in Toronto....But Bettman has denied the rumour. Oct-11-14    WannaBe: Good work people!! http://gameknot.com/team-match.pl?i... Oct-14-14    WannaBe: More Fun With Math. Paul Allen of Microsoft (And other things) donated 9M and Mark Zuckerberg & wife donated 25M towards Ebola fight. 25 Mil, that's a pretty nice size chunk of change! http://finance.yahoo.com/news/zucke... According to the Wiki pages, P. Allen is worth 16.4B and Zuckerberg is worth 34B, yes BILLIONS. If Mr. Z had donated 1 percent of his worth, it would be 340M, .1 percent would be 34M, a measely 25M is .07 percent, or .0007 of his net worth. Maybe I'll throw in 25 cents towards the Ebola fight. Oct-14-14    WannaBe: Did my normal second Tuesday of the month Window 7 patches, now it's saying Failed, Reverting, and it's stuck on that. DON'T UPDATE/PATCH WIN7. My Win8.1 was fine after installing patches. Will keep y'all posted. Oct-15-14    WannaBe: Updated my home system (Win7 Pro) and had no issues. Trying to pin point which update caused my work computer (Win7 Ultimate) to not complete update/patches yesterday. The other work laptop (Win8.1 Pro) had no problems at all. Oct-15-14    WannaBe: Got it narrowed down to one of the Windows Security Updates, but I don't know which KB it is yet... What I did was first to update the Malware definition and Email Junk Spam Filter. No problems, no reboot required. Then I updated all the .NET framework security patches. Reboot, no issues. Then what I left was the 8 (?) security patches. Bam, after reboot, I get the Failure, revert message on my screen. But I had no problem with my Win7 Pro at home, so right now I guess it's only Win 7 Ultimate(??)... Have to find another machine that have Win 7 Pro and test it out. Oct-15-14    chancho: I got an update notification of 14 updates from Windows and then after it finished downloading, it said the download failed. Grrrr. Oct-16-14    WannaBe: Good Luck Against "Russia Time". Oct-16-14    WannaBe: This is very similiar, if not identical to what Martha Stewart did with her stock selling, and landed her in prison for insiders trading. http://www.networkworld.com/article... Oct-16-14    WannaBe: Why, yes, people are <THAT> stupid. http://www.networkworld.com/article... Oct-16-14    falso contacto: I was about to tell you that I was in for some games. You know, we are slowly heading into summertime. Thank you, captain. Oct-16-14    WannaBe: <falso contacto> If you want more, just let me know (here or private message on GameKnot). Because <technical draw> is always ready for more games. =) Oct-16-14    WannaBe: So... After a day and half, I found the bad boy that is causing my updates to fail on Win7 Ultimate. KB2949927 Then I found this, published a few hours ago. http://www.infoworld.com/article/28... Oct-16-14    WannaBe: Here is what I have, as far as settings for the work domain and my personal computers: 1. For Windows Update, set it to "Download, but let me decide". 2. Microsoft usually release the patches second Tuesday of the month, unless it's something very very critical. 3. Wait until second Friday of the month to do your patches, let the idiots like me bang our heads against the wall first. =)) Oct-17-14    WannaBe: Wow, how time really flies, it was 25 years ago when earthquake struck and delayed the game. Oct-18-14    OhioChessFan: I had the very same thought, and remember the instant I found out about it. 25 years ago......amazing. Oct-18-14    technical draw: Thanks for that link <WannaBe>. It certainly is bad news for me. Germany of all places! Oct-18-14    WannaBe: <OhioChessFan> I was junior in high school when it happened. Sitting in front of the TV waiting for the game to start in the late afternoon. Then the TV (picture) started shaking, like mad. Quite unbelievable... Oct-18-14    OhioChessFan: I walked into the bowling alley on league night and asked the guy behind the desk how the game was going. When he said an earthquake had hit and cancelled the game, I thought he was joking. Oct-19-14    WannaBe: This is great! http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbefor... Oct-20-14    WannaBe: <ANNIVERSARY> 10 years!!! Good thing both CG.com and I have not seeked a divorce lawyer. If I do, do I get half of Mr. Freeman's money? However. Since joining CG.com, my ELO have gone up exactly 130 pts. At this rate, I will be GM in the year 2414. Oct-20-14    technical draw: Congrats <WannaBe>! Oct-22-14    WannaBe: Use Apple Pay + Bank of America? http://money.cnn.com/2014/10/22/tec... Did Apple test this out before they went live? Oct-24-14    WannaBe: So... You want that new Mac Mini computer. http://www.inquisitr.com/1559561/re... Oct-27-14    WannaBe: http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/20... 1. Are people that stupid? 2. If you <ARE> stupid & get injured by a bear, the bear gets put down?? Jump to page #   (enter # from 1 to 754) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 535 OF 754 ·  Later Kibitzing>
