Happy Independence Day

For American ASD Wrong Planet inhabitants. Since there are many ASD individuals with that proclivity to science/math, engineering, techies, etc. this is the COOLEST vid clip; great music too But it's for ALL Autists - 4th of July, Autistic style!

Enjoy your holiday, maybe roast some raw meat over an open flame, yes? Anyway, hope you all like the astronaut video (USA is printed on the rocket):

I hope you enjoy always good to have a chance to celebrate, makes a change for fighting to be understood and heard...

^ Thank you, asplanet. I'm not 'Americanized' and Alaska still remains quite separate. But it's a holiday...sigh.

Just a note: asplanet - I so much appreciate your posts; very thought provoking & inspirational. You have so many good ideas. I do read, & thank you for your site too. So, thank you. And happy Independence Day even for our 'Aussie Aspies.'

For me, rather than being a party, it is more of a funeral for my dying nation .

Apologies for naming the wrong nation I just saw New Zealand on your location. A Kiwi then!

For me, I think similarly in that although I'm 'high-functioning' I am 100% Autistic. I refer to myself as Autistic (or an 'Autist'). I really don't make any distinction between 'level-of-functioning;' I have commonalities with the entire spectrum. And I am partly mute. Cognitively gifted with the whole of Autism that is self-defining. I am dually Dx'd with Asperger's & HFA; the distinction is blurry at best. And likely moot.

cyberscan.....I do have to agree (sigh). I know the USA is just not living up to promises, not to mention really ticking off most of the rest of the globe, for good reason! But, aside from that part, just as a holiday - the 4th is to be fun. Some people use Independence Day as a family day to play and be outside together. So this is good. I don't have family but many others do. Technically I don't have to work/study (I'm at University) so that equates to 'holiday.' (kind of miss my laboratory though.....). My male friend took me to the park this afternoon; I love the swingset!

Anyway, cool video! Lab Pet is in the Neurosciences/Chemistry so I like to see aeronautical engineering that overlaps with the common languge of math. Science is universal.

LabPet, I do LOVE your signature - especially the therapist slayer.

break out the sparkers and the apple pie

Today we put away the Edgar Elgar and the Ralph Vaughan-Williams and play John Phillip Sousa and
Aaron Copland instead....

July 4, 2009

Today is the 4th of July. American day of so called Independence.

So you're independent are you ? Wallahee, tell me, what are you independent from ?

For me you're nothing but a bunch of slaves, a 200 years old slaves. A grouping of pathetic, miserable ex-convicts and criminals with no history, tradition or roots...

So you're independent huh ? How come I see you like sheep with no capacity for questioning then ? How come I see you totally subjugated in those minds of yours, incapable of asking the right questions. How come I see you a numbed out, divorced from reality, running after, pursuing stupidities from the day you are born to the day you are lowered down in your graves.

And you think that a bunch of illiterate, nasal, armed, cowboys who can't even spell or pronounce words correctly - like you - will deter us ? Well think again, as*holes.

We are Iraqis. Do you know what Iraqis are -- you arrogant, ignorant, backward people.

Of course you would not know. You know nothing.

We've been around for thousands of years. Well before the Persians, Greeks, Romans... and well before you. We are the first people and will be the last people.

History started with us and will end with us. Of that I am absolutely certain. Because you will be history. Your fake, empty empire will be history.

We will reclaim our Independence again. And all of you and those perfidious collaborators of yours - from the persians and their shiites puppets to the zionist kurds will vanish in the dustbins of Ur. As they have done so in the past.

Happy 4th of July suckers and see you around in Ur !
