It's off-season and I'm bored, so........
I'd like to start a thread for all of us to get to know each other a little better. We spend so much time (well, some of us) on here that it would be good to put a little personality behind each poster.
You don't have to answer some/any of the questions about yourself below if you don't feel like it.
1. How old are you?
2. Where do you live and where were you born, if different?
3. What do you do and where do you work?
4. Favorite hobbies
5. If you play soccer, what position do you play and which professional player do you most resemble?
6. Anything else you want to add.
I'll start.
1. I'm 27
2. I live in Pacifica, California. It's about a 10 minute ride south of San Francisco. I was born in Odessa, Ukraine and came to US at the age of 13.
3. I am a financial analyst, working for AAA.
4. I love to read books, collect chess boards and play chess, and build WWII models (tanks, planes, boats, etc.....)
5. I play CM for my team. I'd like to think I resemble Lampard (maybe slightly better  ).
6. I am a twin. Also, I have played tennis for 20 years.

Re: It's off-season and I'm bored, so........
I feel like abstaining until Monkee sticks his oar in and sets the bar but here goes:
1. 28
2. Live in Dana Point in South Orange County. Grew up in Newbury, Berks and in the 'Wooden' West Stand of Stamford Bridge since the 80's. Gave up my season ticket during the '02 season to cross the pond (sniff sniff)
3. I'm an actuary/benefits consultant for a large MNC
4. Chelsea (duh), running, hiking, Eagles (was STH with Eddie for a couple of years),
5. Mentally kicked every ball while on the West (in fact it was the only to keep warm in those 8,000+ crowds against Coventry/Wimbledon/etc in November.) My skills are sowewhat akin to a s*** Ali Dia
6. Eff off you nosey b*st*rd

I bet Fisher will disagree with you on that one.
