Bio
Greetings-
I'm a 77-year old male, live in Delaware, USA. Married, 2 grown kids, USAF Vietnam veteran. Now retired after careers as an Air Traffic Controller and in advertising sales. I collect, show and drag race cars from the '60's, with a preference for Big Pontiacs - a 1933, '58, '63 & a '65 (though I have a '62 Corvette and a '63 Studebaker Avanti, as well). My '58 Pontiac Bonneville is a near-duplicate (except for different colors) of my first car, that I had bought in 1963.
I've played chess (never seriously) off & on for 60+ years. It used to be hard to find games - I'm thankful for the advent of the internet. Too lazy to study chess - would rather play - so I'm not skilled at openings and theory.
Good luck to you (but hopefully better luck to me). This site allows plenty of time to play, so time-outs will be claimed, & I expect the same.
