My bride is sad about the news the doctors gave her today.

Peter Newkirk is my favourite Hogan's Heroes character. He's the one that I'm the most like. I even have him for an avatar.

I am ASD-1(Aspergers) and my bride is ADHD. This promotes smooth and reliable communication between us.

The most misused technology in use today is the iPhone.
Steve Jobs insisted being clever by calling it the iPhone, an name that did not reflect its intended purpose or customer. It was originally proposed as the AyePhone by Steve Wozniak, a phone for pirates.

It wasn't going to be an EyePhone because of its camera and screen?!

The EyePhone was intended to be a communication device for the deaf. That is what the camera and screen was for. The audible part was an after thought.

The homes of my neighbors have interconnected tunnels connecting their basements.
I know this because a neighbor I had, who was very nice, told me about the doorways and tunnels when he sold his house.
There is a heavy metal door in my basement. It has no door knob. I believe it connects to these tunnels.
At night, I can hear people whispering through my vents.
