| Ahh, now this could be fun. My hardest ever game played so far would have to be Super Mario Galaxy. Some levels-like all those in Good Egg Galaxy-are quite easy. But get past the first few galaxies, and it actually becomes a very tricky game. I'm currently stuck on Major Burrows on that, actually, ... |

| 1. 34 2. Yes, as an adult with AS, I feel totally invisible to organizations that are supposed to help people with ASDs. Part of it is that don't seem to care, part of it is that they don't know how to help, and also they simply do have services in place to assist us (I'm mainly talking about career... |

| Sorry you had a bad experience. I've been through similar things with paraprofessionals who should know better but do not. I think going to a "special needs" clinic that treats children is not going to help you. I'm not familiar with that specific clinic, but they probably don't know much about the ... |

| I've watched all the movies of Yasujiro Ozu. They weren't shown in the US for the longest time, being considered "too Japanese". However, you can buy/rent many of them on DVD now as the Criterion Collection has re-issued them (with subtitled). I loved them. His earliest movie are silent, and his las... |

As long as I had my own space, food and hot water, I was happy. All were great and I enjoyed the company.... |

It's called the "Work Keys" Test, and you can give the results to potential employers, government and civilian. I would recommend to everyone who is job hunting to go to their state unemployment offi... |

This is much different than those of us who were diagnosed as adolescents or adults. We didn't have those and our parents had no reason to think we were "sick".. becau... |

You have to learn to live and work in the 'real world' with people of all sorts of personalities, abilities and shortcomings, in their academic achievement, as well as personality. If you... |
