who i am, why i 'play' this game, when i learned ('twas my fathers gift to me.. my first board and chess book when i turned 10 years old..)? wow.. thats a loaded question..

first things 1st.. chess is like life to me.. any day that goes by and i dont play this game feels like a day that i wasted doing absolutely nothing.. 2nd.. i hope to make my father (who now looks down at me from up above), The Lord, and those old Grandmasters i idolize proud by accepting any challenge and being able to teach any 1 in my community this game..

stay blessed out there, world.. and come around and play me in a match sometime..
