Wrong Planet is such a great name for this site! When I was 15, and sitting in a very boring highschool class taking a test on a subject I was failing due to total lack of interest, I had to stretch my neck as I was getting all stiff from sitting for so long, and the nitwit teacher accused me of trying to cheat by ogling other people's tests. I am not cheating, I retorted, very insulted. To which he said, annoyed with my tone, perhaps you are in the wrong class! I stood up and said, no, I am on the wrong planet! The whole class broke up laughing, the teacher got very angry, I left the class, and later got the only F of which I was ever proud.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, the thirty-fourth President of the United States (1953-1961), was in office when I was in highschool for the 2 stultifyingly boring years I had to attend. So it's been a while.

Welcome to WrongPlanet 
During those years you was in high school, I was busy somewhere else.... being born, I'm only 48
but some times I hang out at the Dino-Aspie Cafe where fluent rubbish is spoken....
I like your signature....

Howdy, pleased to meet you. 57 here, haven't known about this stuff for long, well not the label, alway thought something was a little different. You nailed my one reaccuring nightmare, school. I don't spell so hot, hate spell check and move letters all over the place. But no one yells at me in here for doing it, refreshing. Did a little stink in the Army wasn't a happy time, but somehow got through it. I talk to much too. So anyway, welcome home.
