Introduce yourself!

Hello all new members of Clan Re!

My name is Alexander, I am the founder and owner of Clan Reborn. Let me thank you for joinging our brotherhood, and take some time to tell you about myself. I am 26, from New Jersey. I started Clan Reborn in 2003, on Warcraft III. The clan has been a big part of my life since then. We rose to the top of US east competative leagues in WAR3 and decided we wanted to expand the clan to other games. This clan means alot to me, I've connected and maintained awesome friendships throughout the years with Clan Re members from thoughuot the world, and thats the main reason why I enjoy it, and strive to make this the best team ever.

I have a girlfriend now of over two years, her name is Angelica. I am also a musician, I play guitar, drums, bass, and piano. When you play against me in chess, I play on a real board that I have set up in my room. I usually try to make at least one move a day, so when I submit my moves online, I make the corresponding moves for myself and my opponent on the real board, and when I wake up in the morning I study the board and think about my moves. It's very enjoyable that way.

I am a person with many goals and aspirations for life. I want to start two bands, one where I play drums, and the other where I play guitar. I want to write many books, of poetry, philosophy, fantasy, an an autobiography of my families history. I hope to one day produce and write my own movies, and compose the soundtracks for them. When I die, I hope to leave behind many great paintings and drawings, and other various works of art and sculptures. I hope to raise a family in NJ, where I grew up, and I hope to have a nice house filled with great art, a massive library, a garden, 2 cats and a dog. And ofcourse, I want to turn Clan Reborn into a legendary team, and make many great freinds along the way. So with that I thank you all for joining Clan Re. If you like, please add me as a friend here, or add me on facebook. I use the facebook login feature for chess.com

and please, introduce yourselves and tell us about you. 

Hello i am a 60 year old father of  two....I have been married 34 years.. I started playing chess during the 1972 fischer vs. spassky match.... I am a Bronze Life Master in Contract Bridge ... I am and have been an IT professional and i still work.... I love Music and have been listening to Rock and  Roll since the 60's ... I play a little guitar ... Not very well... LOL 

I love chess,com having discovered it a little over a year ago... I am online evry day..... I also love Jazz Music especially Guitar oriented like Pat Metheny, John Scofield  etc..... 

Thank you for joining Hudman, very glad to have you aboard. Never played bridge, but I am a fan of Jazz. I used to play in the Jazz Ensamble at my college, in both guitar and percussion. Those were very good times, I was not a music major, infact I was a biology major and I would skip class to go sit in with the Jazz Ensamble on wednedays. I learned alot there, and studied under a great teacher who really taught me how to play and feel jazz.... I am a big fan of Thelonious Monk, Count Bassie, David Brubeck, Chic Corea, and Nina Simone. I take a good bit of Jazz influence in my compositions.

Anyway thank you for sharing sir, I am thankful to have you on our team.
