Hi Wandalou:
I am new here, too. (And that's wasn't intended to rhyme. ) I never knew what an emu egg felt like, but now that I am one, I know just what they feel like. LOL
Don't worry about the X-Box 360. Next year, it will be half the price that it is this year. That's how it usually goes. (Or you'll at least have a year to save up for it.)
I am here because my BF has trouble relating to others and has some (not all) AS traits, so I want to learn as much as I can (though he's not been diagnosed).
