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 570 OF 754 ·  Later Kibitzing> Nov-16-15    WannaBe: <chancho> I think I've narrowed it down to why I dislike Spectre's theme song. It's sung by a male in a high-pitched voice... Men/group have done lots of Bond themes, but I don't remember one being in a high-pitched voice. Nov-16-15    WannaBe: More idiots: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/more-... Nov-16-15    Jim Bartle: You better watch your step, <wb>, or else! Oops, I forgot I'm not anonymous. Nov-16-15    WannaBe: You know, I posted last week, that St. Johns lost to some D-II school... Just realized Ucla lost their first game of the '15-'16 season (at Pauley) to Monmouth. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas... Yikes!! Nov-16-15    Jim Bartle: UCLA, Georgetown and even Wisconsin lost their openers to really small colleges. Nov-16-15    WannaBe: Final update on the Cal/Stanford tix 'investment'. Purchased 2 tix @144.76 (Oct. 20) Sold 2 tix @162.00 (today) Profit: $17.24 Good thing I don't make a livin' doing this. Nov-17-15    waustad: I met a professional scalper in Costa Rica. I got the impression he was looking for something like a safe deposit box there where he could stash cash. He was based in NY and was probably trying to dodge taxes. It wouldn't be a shock if he got involved with the Brothers Villalobos eventually and lost it all. Their Ponzi scheme paid very well for quite a while. Nov-17-15    WannaBe: This is for <chancho> I think it covers every 'authorized' movies (yes, including George Lazenby) and it's done to one of the best Theme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht8... Nov-18-15    chancho: Thanks <WannaBe> Btw, this is (imo) the best Bond fight ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy2... Nov-19-15    WannaBe: Holy Batman, JACKPOT!!! I was just foolin' around on YouTube and got a clip of Harlem Globetrotter, and did a search on "Lady with Two Left Feet", a.k.a. "Sweet Georgia Brown" And I struck the mother-lode!! Ella https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Sa... Sachmo doing the intro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jkx... But I wonder what is the technique where the clarinet player do the 'staccato' is called. Ray https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0l... Burnett(??) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jf... Nov-19-15    Jim Bartle: I have no idea how he gets that sound on a clarinet. Nov-19-15    WannaBe: Gonna be a fun Saturday, both Ucla & that other school play at 12:30 Pacific. Ucla never had much success at Salt Lake City and that other school goes to Eugene to face the red-hot Ducks (winner of 4 in a row). In other news, Ucla basketball barely escaped Cal Poly at home. They will face Kentucky and North Carolina (at home) and visit Gonzaga (later in the season). NIT, anyone? Nov-20-15    WannaBe: iPad Pro can't wake up. https://www.yahoo.com/tech/s/apple-... Nice work Apple... Nov-22-15    WannaBe: Finally, after almost 5 Qtrs, Raiders scores. Touchdown!! Still losing to Detroit. 9-7. Nov-22-15    WannaBe: Raiders have the lead!! 10-9. (Exciting game) Nov-22-15    WannaBe: Crap, Raiders down again. 16-13. Nov-22-15    WannaBe: Crap, safety. Ugh! 18-13 Detroit. Nov-22-15    WannaBe: Raiders lose. =(( Nov-23-15    WannaBe: Believe it or not, Bay area expecting to see some snow this week(end)!! http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/artic... Nov-23-15    WannaBe: News: UCLA QB Josh Rosen has now thrown 218 passes without an INT, snapping the Bruins' team record of 199 by Drew Olson. Reaction: Great. He just got jinxed, ahead of the cross-town showdown with that other school. Nov-23-15    Jim Bartle: On the first series he should throw a 50yd. Bomb for an interception, just to get it out of the way. Anything to avoid a pick six. Nov-24-15    WannaBe: Oh, goodie, Ucla is only down by 23 pts at half-time against Kansas, in Hawai'i. Nov-25-15    WannaBe: Just made another bunch of future 'investments' in SF Giants tickets. I picked games that will draw fans (I have some idea of which teams have fans that travel well, or Giants fans want to go see). First home stand (game 2, Friday) to open the season vs LAD, 2 tix. Marlins, 2 tix (Personal use, want to see Ichiro before he retires) Cubs, Friday 2 tix, Sunday 2 tix. LAD, June 12, 2 tix. Oakland A's, June 27, 2 tix. See how these future 'investments' work out. =)) Nov-26-15    Agferna: Sorry <Chancho>, the train fight is the best ever. Cheers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Dr... Nov-26-15    chancho: <Agferna> Heh, no problem. That Sean Connery fight with Robert Shaw kicks ass too.
