    Oh, I know. I have had a couple. But I am given to random thoughts and flights of fancy and have no business on one, other than at 3 a.m. on a deserted street in a one horse town. Going 10 mph. Okay 5 mph. Or maybe just parked.

    I was on a toll road in Dallas about ten years ago, going 70. I saw a pack of kamikaze bikes or whatever you call them -- Ninjas? -- distantly in my rearview mirror. Just a speck. Next thing I know the pack passes me like I'm standing still. They had to be doing at LEAST 120 MPH.

    I'm sure they were in heaven. Also pretty sure they were boys, not to be sexist, but let's face it ....

    No. For an autistic that is a death sentence.

    I do not even drive a car.

    I have to admit though, I did a ride a few days ago along a rural road and a thought popped into my head "What if a deer jumped out on the road?" I hit 3 deer in my car in 1 year. Meh, I just let God deal with it.

    For me, solitary confinement would be severe torture. I like talking to people.

    Yeah you'd need a side car. I have never had a cup of coffee. And I have to force down water.

    I would not risk my life. Sadly I do by eating tons of deep fried food.

    You dealt with a lot of inmates? They are in prison for a reason. And it ain't for littering.

    Tinkering = building/fixing stuff, but as a hobby instead of as a profession or out of necessity.

    Why cant autistics drink alcohol?

    It is extremely easy to get addicted. Much easier for an autistic.

    I guess they are rare in the heartland, if that's where you are, but I grew up in south Louisiana. We have good ones here in Texas, also.

    I like oysters ok. I don't go out of my way to get them, but I'll pig out if they're set in front of me.

    But deep fried oysters... never thought of that.

    Wait ... you only eat oysters raw? Surely the restaurant has fried oysters. Maybe you mean a bar.

    You can buy a jar of raw oysters at the super market, roll them in milk and corn meal + flour mixture, and fry them n peanut oil at home. You'll need a thermometer to get the temperature just right so that they come out crispy.

    I would go to my favorite restaurant RIGHT NOW and have a dozen, but they are closed, of course.

    I wonder if they would do take out .... I'd have to eat them in the parking lot, as they have to be eaten right now.

    I have been to some friends "oyster roasts". They steam them up and then dump them on a table and everyone digs in. Very addicting.

    Are you kidding? EVERYONE is at home here .... so no.

    What's the opposite of loneliness? Because that's what I have.

    LOL, same!

    The amount of food late teens/young adults eat is astonishing.
