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.

I mean, to put that in perspective, according to Forbes, Dallas Cowboys are the valuable team in the NFL at $4.2B with an annual revenue of $700M I mean Warren Buffeft probably sneezes $700M...

After successfully doing it for thousands of times, suddenly my computer refuses to copy and paste images. We've tried rebooting, system restore, and cursing, but nothing works. It still lets me copy and paste videos, but no still images. Grrrr! It lets me paste an image onto a Microsoft Word page, but not onto a blog post.

Jan-31-17    OhioChessFan: Scumbag. Bankruptcy laws are way too lenient, and they encourage this kind of irresponsibility. On a bigger level, that's what led to the sub-prime meltdown, that is "Heads I win, tails I lose but the governement saves me." Jan-31-17    WannaBe: <OhioChessFan> Not good for our day-trader friend, AAPL smashed expectation. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/appl...
