In life, as in chess, forethought wins

About Me

I'm just a simple low-key decent young lad making his way through this thing called life, a good-hearted soul who walks tall. I was born in east Tennessee and grew up in the Atlanta suburb of Smyrna, GA and graduated from high school in June 1996, just in time for the Atlanta Olympics :o)
I'm a Libra, which means I have conflicting personality traits: sometimes I'm quite chatty, other times quiet, sometimes wild and energetic, other times low-key, sometimes perky, other times brooding, sometimes opinionated, other times indifferent... you get the idea.

I have an articulate mind and I can converse about 100s of different topics.

As my profile shows, I have a variety of interests.
