| It's like I have a need for everything not under my control to go a certain way, but things totally under my control can go any-which-way. YES LOL. I relate too. This trait of ASD peeps and other neuro atypical folk is usually attributed to Executive Function Disorder. This "sub-condition" causes d... |

| I don't mimic other people well without practice. I don't have a good "ear" for accents, even thuogh i can do quite a few of them. When I speak or listen to a lot of german, I sometimes slip into a German accent when talking English. Recently I've been learning Scottish Gaelic and have learned to do... |

But this is obviously a "Look at me" sort of thing and somehow other people are supposed to be impressed or awed by the extremity or potential danger involv... |

| I remember it as Martin Short and another cast member forming a duo... with nose-plugs and life vests or equally silly. I loved that skit! Sorry, I don't know where to find it. That skit was with Harry Shearer. But there was another one with Short alone. I remember that. Sorry that I dont' have a l... |

| Listening to music on a special 1960s music channel on television. I love those music channels. I have my TV set to wake me up to the Swing and Big Band channel - beats an alarm clock anyday. I sort of reading an WSJ article "From Miles Davis to Bjork, They've Loved Stckhausen." It's about how many... |

| I confess my mom's been pissing me off lately. She gave me $80 to go buy my brother a "nice" Xmas present from her, and then asked me to buy her lottery tickets and some groceries with that money too. That's her passive-aggressive way to get me to "pitch in" on her present for my brother. Grrrr. I c... |

Some people don't have that, and if you don't take advantage of it now, you will most likely regret it when you're older. If a phone... |
