| And by the way, inhaling houshold products is illegal, not to mention much more destructive than most things you could get on the street. |

| Yeah, I would be careful about trying to control the situation too much. I know parents want to do whatever they can for their children, whether they have AS or not, but sometimes you just have to let things unfold naturally and roll with the difficulties as they come up. I was picked on a lot as a ... |

| What the heck is the "US Institute of Medicine"? It sounds like one of those groups with an authoritative sounding name that really isn't authoritative. The AMA (American Medical Association) is, as far as I know, the largest organization representing medical professionals and the most commonly refe... |

| I don't know if that happens to me, but it could be due to the bubbles. Bubbles create an interface for alcohol absorption in to the system. The alcohol in champagne gets absorbed pretty much as soon as you swollow it. A shot of hard liquor affects me differntly than a beer. It gives me an almost in... |

I believe there was a report done by one of the Rockefellers when he was govonor of Ney York state. I think it was called "The Govornors C... |

| I feel that I was waiting to smoke cannabis my whole life, long before I ever knew what it was. I don't even believe in God, but it was like destiny, like I was made to smoke marijuna, or it was made to be smoked by me, something like that. It not only affects everyone differently, but will affect a... |

| I have watched porn with my dad, I don't think that is necesarily unusual at a bachelor party or that sort of thing. A group of guys watching porn together are just joking around, kind of making fun of it, so its not a big deal. But having Mom around would be pretty disturbing. The idea of my parent... |

| For some reason I can only think of stories involving others... The first, though I wasn't present I am reasonably sure it is a true story, was about a good female friend of mine that vomited in the process of giving a guy (another friend of mine) oral pleasure. The second was in my apartment and I ... |

| Ah drugs... LSD) Lots of great experiences, a few not so great. Weird thing about it is that it makes you kind of tense. Most the time I was having fun, but also waiting for it to be over. Really, LSD causes symptoms like severe AS. It makes it hard to deal with or even be around normal people. It m... |

| Its so easy for some people to be mean in forums like this because you know there is no possibility of direct retribution. If person A says something mean to person B, they know that person B is just going to have to be mad, and even if person B responds angrily, they know that person A isn't going ... |

| What's the meaning of the word under your name on the forum. Like under my login name, Coctyle, it says Hummingbird, and under that there are several boxes, some of which are outlined more darkly for some people. Would I be correct to assume that both have to do with how many posts you have made? |

| Marijuna is a great enigma. In many ways it almost seems to be proof of a benevolent god, but when I am actually stoned, I often wonder what I like about it so much and can't really figure it out. When I am not stoned, I can only remember the great, comfortable, thoughtfulness of it. It definately c... |

| There is a difference between being self-employed and being a business owner. Bill Gates is more in the catagory of business owner than self-employed (although technically I think he has retired as CEO, and is now just a board member and stock-holder). He may have started off as self-employed, but n... |

| Most interviewers are not trained to do it and are nervous themselves, trying to fill the amount of time that they are supposed to fill. Thats why they will sometime do alot of the talking themselves. I've been on both sides. I have had a couple tough interviews, but mostly easy. They hardly ever as... |
