This from a 2257 rated?
"I just started playing chess and I'm still not sure how all the pieces move correctly, he he he. I couldn't beat Bobby Fisher's unborn child, lol." 8/4/08 update. I wrote this section over 2 years ago when I joined and my rating was set @ 1200. I've been playing chess since 12. I'm 48 now. I have 38 chess books, 19 of them on the opening alone. Of course my rating has been steadily going up. I had a hard time getting people to play me when I joined, hence the sarcastic "about me"

"Thanks for looking at my profile. Unfortunately I'm serving a life sentence for domestic violence. Part of my rehabilitation was recommended by my psychiatrist. She asked me to find a hobby that exercised my mind. So here I am playing chess when ever I can from the prison library (it's one of the few sites I have access too). I used to be the prison chess champion, but after an argument with a fellow inmate and a small stabbing incident afterwards I had my privileges revoked."
