Some loud noises bother me a great deal; especially anything unexpected and intrusive to whatever mental task may be at hand at the time. Mostly it isn’t so much the loudness that gets me but the volume, or amount. I can barely tolerate the consolidated sound of multiple conversations like in a crow...

I think that IQ exams are a fraud in every sense with the exception of informing another person what your intelligence level is above. Unless it is a mere fluke provoked by an impeccable guessing routine then you’re always sure to be at least as intelligent as the exam indicates; however, in every o...

VERY simple answer on this one. Money. Alex even has a hard time keeping this site itself going. Note the large DONATE button in gold on your left... <-- There is no way we can field the tens to hundreds of thousands for a commerical spot. What is working against us is difficulty with employment. W...

I was thinking about this the other day after having watched an Autism Speaks commercial on the tube. They were doing some rant about prenatal testing for Autism, or something to that effect. Why don’t we make commercials to combat theirs? Seriously, why don’t we come together to finance it or somet...

Dating is much like finding a lost object, you can't find it when you want it, but you can when you don't. Relationships are similar. I firmly b...

Oath Keepers consist of police, veterans, active military, etc. Actually, several simple groups have been declared potential terrorist here in America that in n...
