I think it would be nice if you could show a little kindness toward yourself and your father. How would you feel if Maphia was as harsh to her imperfections as you are to yourself. When your father ...

Like some of the above people I also only have a name for my cars when they aren't working right. Laughing

My current car's being nameless for all these years is a kind of backwards tribute to it, ...

In the next to the last sentence of the article, he says his ability to recognize faces has deteriorated drastically. Is that consistent with prosopagnosia? I think mine has stayed the same for six ...

I enjoyed the article. It's interesting that no matter how big a celebrity a person is, prosopagnosia results in the same frustrations. Again, I did not recognize my neighbor when she approached me. ...

Come to think of it, I did have a car called P.O.S. - piece of s**t.
I wanted to put a sign above the driver's door that said "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here".

Anyone name their car? The first I heard of this, a co-worker had named her car "Dorothy Dodge". I have had "Mork Merc" and currently have "Hathor Honda".

I like Big Bang Theory a lot but I do not like the way they portray women. I notice it is all written by men. I think the women in the are what those men think women are like.

This is an ongoing problem for me. I was having trouble understanding what my supervisor wanted. A co-worked suggested telling him "I am a literal thinker". I put that in an email involving the iss ...

If I remember correctly, the sitcoms of the '50s and '60 were horrible marriage archetypes as well but different. The husband ran the family and sat in an easy chair reading the newspaper and the wif ...

As an adult, I found his piece on finger picking helpful. If you go to the "about" section of this facebook site, the author has a webpage that is nicely organized.

I wondered if it was related to sound. I can pay attention to a few speakers but there are some that I only catch a few words and my mind wanders off. It has nothing to do with the topic. I think i ...

I think there is a lot of focus on status and improving status/keeping high status. I found it helpful to look at animal behavior like chimpanzees and baboons. There is a lot going on, love, hate, s ...
