South Park

I love South Park! It is amazing and unfortunate that I did not discover it until recently! It was an incentive to get my first DVR the other week. How did I survive without a DVR my whole life, let alone South Park? Now I have ten days, each with three episodes, on my DVR. The title of this posting is "South Park". Please click on it for more information on South Park. This was originally posted on 6/15/07.

Face Smashed Into Concrete!

Ate 4-Year Old Food!.... Last Day of Job!
b I FlYrida J
I dove into my 6' pool last week. I scraped the back of my hands to save my face. I had a power outage for two hours. I put a temporary tattoo of Homer Simpson on my arm. I started making plastic window decals. I finished eating food purchased in NY from years ago. I started a new position today. It is the same company, same desk, same PC, and same co-workers. However, we are all now doing this new job. It is much busier and more work.

What Is NT?

Neurotypical syndrome is a neurobiological disorder characterized by preoccupation with social concerns, delusions of superiority, and obsession with conformity. (click here)

Neurotypical individuals often assume that their experience of the world is either the only one, or the only correct one. NTs find it difficult to be alone. NTs are often intolerant of seemingly minor differences in others. When in groups NTs are socially and behaviorally rigid, and frequently insist upon the performance of dysfunctional, destructive, and even impossible rituals as a way of maintaining group identity. NTs find it difficult to communicate directly, and have a much higher incidence of lying as compared to persons on the autistic spectrum.

NT is believed to be genetic in origin. Autopsies have shown the brain of the neurotypical is typically smaller than that of an autistic individual and may have overdeveloped areas related to social behavior.

Could I be NT? Take the Online NT Screening Test. You have to figure out your test manualy, yourself. The "Calculate Score" button link does not work.
This is a list of the answers I gave to the questions. First, is the number of the question. Second, is the number of the multiple choice answer that I chose for myself. 1) 4, 2) 4, 3) 2, 4) 1, 5) 4, 6) 4, 7) 3, 8) 4, 9) 4, 10) not 2

Simpsons Movie Penis

There is an image that involves Bart eagerly accepting Homer's dare to skateboard at high speed to Krusty Burger, naked. After a series of blocked views, there is a fleeting glimpse of the 10-year-old's yellow penis. Fortunately for the producers, Fox, the British Board of Film Classification has taken a liberal approach. A spokeswoman said: "Natural nudity with no sexual content is acceptable in PG films. The Simpsons film marks 20 years since the television debut of The Simpsons.

Aspects of Aspergers & Sex

Why coworkers? Many people with Asperger Syndrome obsess on some things to the Nth degree. Many of them work in their field of obsession, or become obsessed in their work, leaving them less time for a social life outside work. People with Asperger Syndrome may also lack the inclination or ability to make friends outside work, with the exception perhaps of dedicated communities such as the Linux community. They are likely to find coworkers with similar personalities, and if they are interested in their work too, then they share a common interest there.

Why asexual? For some people with Asperger Syndrome, getting a significant other is not worth it, not possible, or a combination of the two. Even when people put sexual relationships on the backburner, it does not mean they do not have sexual needs, just that they are not being met: presumably Einstein needed to eat, but he paid so little attention to it that his wives/caregivers had to remind him to eat.

Why prostitutes? It is easy to say that as they cannot "get laid" easily without paying, people with Asperger Syndrome may have to resort to a "business transaction", but this is not the full story. Not being too concerned about social norms is another point. People with Asperger Syndrome may also feel an affinity with prostitutes and other outsiders as they are outsiders themselves and would not obey the social norms, which would otherwise discourage treating them with respect.

People With Asperger Syndrome And Their Sex Lives

Albert Einstein contributed to quantum mechanics, discovered the theory of relativity (possibly with unacknowledged help from his first wife) and spent his final years searching for a grand unified theory. He spoke out against Nazi Germany, encouraged the formation of the Manhattan Project, and was offered presidency of Israel.
Symptoms: He was physically clumsy and was slow in learning to speak. He faced bullying, often motivated by anti-Semitism.

Sexual history: Einstein's first marriage was to Mileva Maric, a fellow student. His second marriage was to his cousin Elsa Lowenthal. He cheated on both wives and had escorts during his second marriage. After the death of his second wife, Elsa's daughter and his secretary cared for him.

Bill Gates is a multi billionaire and co-founder of Microsoft, currently under investigation for the methods he took on his path to becoming a very high functioning autistic.

Symptoms: Time Magazine noted similarities between the New Yorker's article on autism "An Anthropologist on Mars" and an article in the following edition called "E-mail from Bill". Those with an anti-Gates agenda and people interested in autism have promoted the idea.

Sexual history: He wrote a class scheduling program rigged so that he would be the only male in one of his classes. It is widely believed that Bill Gates was into prostitutes before his marriage to Microsoft employee Melinda French.

Family Guy

Official website IMDb profile TV.com summary
Family Guy is an Emmy award winning American animated television series about a nuclear family in the fictional town of Quahog , Rhode Island. It was created by Seth MacFarlane for FOX in 1999.
The show uses frequent "cutaway gags" — jokes in the form of tangential vignettes that do not advance the story.
Family Guy was cancelled once in 2000 and again in 2002, but strong DVD sales and the large viewership of reruns on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim convinced FOX to resume the show in 2005. It is the first cancelled show to be resurrected based on DVD sales.

The show revolves around the adventures of Peter Griffin, a bumbling but well-intentioned blue-collar worker. Peter is an Irish-American Catholic with a thick Rhode Island / Eastern Massachusetts accent. During the course of the series, he discovers he is part African-American and has been known to have Spanish, Mexican, Scottish, "Huttish" (fictional species from Star Wars), and German ancestors. He is known for his trademark laugh. His wife Lois, who has a similar accent, is a stay-at-home mom/piano teacher, and is a member of the Pewterschmidt family of wealthy Protestant socialites. Peter and Lois have three children: teenage daughter Meg Griffin who is frequently the butt of jokes for her ugliness; goofy and unintelligent teenage son Chris Griffin, in some respects a younger version of his father; and diabolically evil infant son Stewie Griffin, bent on world domination and the death of his mother. Stewie speaks fluently and eloquently, with an Upper Class English accent and stereotypical arch-villain phrases.

(Sick, twisted, politically incorrect and freakin' sweet, the animated series features the adventures of the Griffin family. Peter and Lois have three kids - the youngest is a brilliant, sadistic baby bent on killing his mother and destroying the world. Their talking dog Brian keeps baby Stewie in check while sipping martinis and sorting through his own life issues.)

Sex and the Movie

A film version of the show was originally slated for production near the end of the broadcast series run in 2004. However, the deal for the movie fell through at that time. Multiple press reports at the time indicated a personal dispute between Parker and Cattrall, as well as Cattrall's refusal to sign a contract for the film at a pay scale considerably less than Parker's. [6]
News articles began to surface in November 2006 and suggested that the issues had been resolved and that a movie would go into production. Negotiations with executive producer Michael Patrick King and the cast are underway.[7] The movie appears to be in pre-production stages.[8] A script for the movie is being finalized, and filming could begin later this year in New York City.[9][10] Michael Patrick King has been chosen as the director of the Sex and the City film. Production is tentatively scheduled to begin sometime in the fall of 2007.[11] After years of rumor and speculation, Sarah Jessica Parker has finally confirmed that a Sex and the City movie is in the works.[12][13] Though everything is far from certain, Cynthia Nixon is praying to be in the new Sex and the City feature film.[14]

Sex and the movie 21st February 2007. 09:30 (BANG) - Kim Cattrall has hinted she will star in a film version of hit series 'Sex and the City'. The actress, who played maneater Samantha in the hit TV show about four female New Yorkers and their sexual exploits, has suggested the long-rumoured big screen adaptation is in the pipeline.

Aspie Heros

Fictional Characters With Asperger Syndrome

Jar Jar Binks is a Gungan, outcast for clumsiness, who facilitated the contact between the Jedi knights and the Gungans. Jar Jar of STAR WARS has an entire category of Jar Jar sites.

Symptoms: His speech is mangled. This is one of the most memorable aspects of Jar Jar, with a web site that converts web pages into his way of saying things and both fans and enemies of Jar Jar speak like him at times. He dresses unusually, with a homophobic anti-Jar Jar web site claiming Jar Jar is gay because he wears a sleeveless vest. He is clumsy, and sometimes ignores social norms.


Dilbert (TV series version) is an engineer working for Path-e- Tech Corporation.

Symptoms: He has actually been diagnosed as having "the knack", after pulling apart some household appliances and building a radio. When his mother asked whether he would lead a normal life, she was informed that he would not, but that Dilbert would become an engineer. He applies technological solutions where it is not appropriate and often speaks out about situations where more "sensible" people would keep quiet.

Charles Shultz was an Aspie, and created Charlie Brown to represent himself. I used to identify with this character

Cool Award

Today, after being at my desk at work for one hour of work with very few calls, I had a 15 minute paid strawberry yogurt break. It is the fist day in memory I did not have a banana to bring. Then I had a paid one hour meeting with my team of seven. Most of time was devoted to absorbing a presentation of Charter Communications new public relations campaign. We were all given a ceramic mug, and visual materials. Most of my mugs are from my employers. I can now add this to my Circuit City, Gateway, and MHT/Chemical Bank mugs.

Right after that, I was one of 29 Agents from the Charter account invited to a paid Quarterly Convergys awards ceremony for one hour. I received the metal plaque, left, and award certificate, above. In addition, I was given a fine boxed pen, various cut fresh fruits, cake, punch, and was photographed. The fruit made up for my missing banana.


Convergys in Lake Mary, consists of a large campus with large buildings. In my building there are five major accounts. They are Charter, Cingular/at&t, Citibank, Palm, Jarden (Sunbeam...), and MediaCom. There are 307 Agents on my Charter account alone. Only around 25 Agents from each account were invited, and or in attendance. Today marks exactly 7 months + one year for me at CVG.


Afterwards, I clocked out for my one hour lunch. With very little time and work to do, and another 15 paid grapes break, I drove home to my 85 degree home. My favorite machine, and #1 reason for living in Florida, did something very not-cool yesterday. My central air conditioning system stopped cooling yesterday, on the last day before summer!

Asperger Syndrome

Is It Asperger Syndrome?
From Lisa Jo Rudy,
Your Guide to Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Diagnosis: Asperger SyndromeDo you find yourself confused in social situations? Are you passionately interested in a single topic? Is it tough for you to make and maintain eye contact? Then you, like many talented and intelligent adults, may be diagnosable with Asperger’s Syndrome.

What does it mean to have Asperger’s Syndrome? Clearly, since so many successful people seem to have the diagnosis (Dan Ackroyd, for one, announced his diagnosis on the air -- and rumor has it that Bill Gates may also have Asperger’s) it is not a disability in the classic sense. In fact, some historians suggest that Einstein, Mozart, and Alan Turing (the inventor of the first electronic computer) may all have been diagnosable with Asperger’s.
Many “aspies” (a term that teens and adults with Asperger’s Syndrome sometimes use to refer to themselves) have been bullied or teased as children. They may be awkward with the opposite sex. And they may have a tough time maneuvering through complex social cues at school, at work, or elsewhere.

I find social situations confusing. YES
I find it hard to make small talk. YES
I did not enjoy imaginative story-writing at school.
I am good at picking up details and facts. YES
I find it hard to work out what other people are thinking and feeling. YES
I can focus on certain things for very long periods. YES
People often say I was rude even when this was not intended. YES
I have unusually strong, narrow interests. YES
I do certain things in an inflexible, repetitive way. YES
I have always had difficulty making friends. YES YES YES

If you do answer “yes” to many of these questions relative to yourself or a loved one, you may have uncovered an undiagnosed case of Asperger’s Syndrome. For some teens and adults, this is a tremendous relief: it puts a name on a set of issues that has troubled them throughout their lives. And it also opens the door to support, treatment, and community.

But there is no obligation to do anything at all about Asperger’s Syndrome. In fact, many adults feel that being an “aspie” is a point of pride. They are unique, often successful individuals who are simply … themselves!

Bumper Stickers

Today, I created my first professional bumper stickers with my computer system. Previously I did business cards and T-shirts. I plan to do window decals. I made a sheet with 4 stickers, laminated them, & put them on my car.

Publix Shuttle
I used the logotype above, and added Shuttle with the same color and font. It is now on top of my front bumper. Going to Publix, is what I use my car for the most.

The next sticker is of Hillary, seen above. This was put on middle of my rear windshield, on the bottom black strip, between the brake light and satellite antenna. The last one is "&rew" in brown on a tan background. I used Arial Rounded Bold, which is my favorite font. This was put in the middle, on top of the rear bumper. It looks excellent on my rounded beige car. I decided not to put band-aid stickers on my cars scrapes and dents. I finally pealed off the WBAB Long Island Rock radio sticker from my lower left back bumper.

I purchased the materials to make the cards, stickers, decals, and T-shirts years ago with Laurie. Now, for the first time, while I am relaxed and settled down for the first time in my life, I can finally do these hobby-type things. I just found today, the T-shirt transfer paper that I did purchase with Laurie years ago. I am sad that I now purchased a third package, and did not need to do so.

Instead of using my last 8-hour PTO this week, that will be lost instead, I took a VGH after 2 hours at work. I otherwise only had yesterday off. But, I will be off on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I also talked with my brother & friends on the telephone, biked, and went swimming! I am happy with my decisions and use of my day.
