After much thought about Chess and my love for the game...it struck me!

"Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag and begin to slit throats"

H.L. Mencken

My Dad taught me how to play chess when I was about 8 years old. We played for a very long time until the day arrived when I beat him fair and square.

He has refused to ever play me ever again. He still follows my chess play on chess.com though and comments on several games.

I call him "El-Ronto" which is Spanish for [Old Man]. I thank the Lord he's still here and my biggest supporter in all things.

Love Ya' Pop!

A little funny for you all: Magnus does Bill Gates in, in 1 minute - 19sec's flat. A riot!

And aside from my love of chess, my other passions are riding my motorcycle and R/C ( Radio Control) stuff.

2004 Triumph Bonneville America

My electric "Skyfly" airplane and my last two recent gas powered airboats.

And my greatest love and gift in life has always been music. I have been playing guitar and singing all my life.

I would not want to live in a world without music. I have been truly blessed in all things.

My current ladies above: 1973 Gibson J-45 Jumbo Deluxe (starburst). 2008 Ibanez 12-String A/E.

Custom made Studio Pro used for recording.

And here's a few videos of R/C stuff that I though was very wild...enjoy...I will add more crazy things like as I find them.
