What Got You Interested In Playing Chess?

I got interested in chess about two years ago after I saw an HBO documentary about Bobby Fischer called " Bobby Fischer Against The World." 

As soon as the program was over I purchaed a biography of Fischer called Endgame from Kindle ebooks and downloaded my first chess app called ChessFree.

I was hooked.

It turns out that I have absolutely no talent for this game and that was disappointing when I found that out. But I believe I get as much fun out of playing chess as anybody else.
