Hi, guys, my name is Brad. I was diagnosed with Asperger's sometime in the mid-90's (My memory is bad so I don't remember the exact year) and I've been browsing these forums for years but finally got the nerve to register. I'm 29 years old and still working my way through college with a major in English and a minor in Psychology, but will graduate this December.

My hobbies, (or obsessions) are primarily music, some reading and writing, movies (who doesn't like movies?) and Rollerblading. I've never registered for a forum before because I'm even shy on the net, so I'm looking forward to some good discussions on here.

Hey Brad/Overkill,

Welcome to the WrongPlanet!

I am shy on forums as well.

What type of music do you like, and what reading do you do?

thanks for the warm welcome guys.

I primarily listen to Heavy Metal and Electronic music but I like some other stuff as well. As for reading, I prefer non-fiction mostly, but I like fiction too. I like reading political books and books about the paranormal, particularly UFO's. Haven't read much fiction in awhile.
