The Women's World Chess Championship of 2012

Now that they are down to the final four I'm going with Anna Ushenina ( as I've got some Ukrainian relatives ), yes she of the very friendly smile. 

Oh. :)

thanks for the info trysts, and pedla 

Thank you! I wanted to do a little biography on the four, but I was interrupted all day:)

Do you know for sure that all of the semi - finalists were born as infants?

I can't imagine them being born as adults, but if any were then I doubt an epidural would have saved the mother pain or life.

It's Punkin Chunkin time!!!!!!!!!

Are you drunk, woodshover?

I'm going to have to get drunk to get that "punkin chunkin" image out of my mind.

No, but i'm watching it on the tube.

What is "punkin chunkin"?

They use different catapults, that they have designed to see who can chunk a pumpkin the farthest. The farthest so far is about 2,800 feet.

This must be an American sport, right?

Yep. We can't play chess, but we can chunk pumkins. :)

Have you heard the one about the ckicken catapult for testing airplane windows?

@ C_P: Hilarious!

Saw that on Myth Busters.

Must be. My nephew built a catapult as a science project. He also made chainmail and took college calculus when he was in 11th grade. I'm a little scared of him.

I wonder...will there ever be a time the the womens world chess championship be played with the players wearing swimsuits.Hmmm.I'd love to watch that coz i can learn alot from their games. honestly.

Was it a Myth? Sorry, I've never seen Myth Busters, and I'm just busting to know.
