| I've had at least one browser hijack when WP was the only site I had up. Different regions, different targeted ads, who knows? Lately, after maybe three or four unplanned redirections in one day (not WP, it was on a site unrelated to autism) I finally bit the bullet and installed Firefox with Adbloc... |

Good wishes to Merle and Richie for welcome new developments at work. Even the most change-averse among us can get a lot of benefit from the occasional paradigm shift. Agree with Nan, though, that being stuck in foreign airports is taking it too far.  |

Also, MsTriste, there is a thread about rdos's aspie quiz in the Members Only discussion --> HERE. Many of us have taken the test, some more than once, because different versions of it get released from time to time. |

| Similar to "caught flatfooted," there's an expression in Australia (probably elsewhere as well) "caught on the back foot." This makes most sense when considered from a cricket batsman's perspective, where having your centre of gravity shifted to your forward -most foot allows you more options for re... |

| I think the student uprisings of May-June 1968 in France and other parts of Europe may have been slightly before your time, Lemon. :) These protests that Nan is talking about do not sound much like that era, though. Fancy the Black Student Union wanting preferential treatment and separation from oth... |
