I guess being a good visual thinker is a gift. Having an eye for detail, being logical nearly all the time.

Nothing you write here is anything directly related to autism.

Hey guys this thread inspired me to make this thread.

I would comment on how I am a bad coder but I think the thread explains and I don't want to step on anyone's toes with negativity.

Ah I assume you are talking to me and are referring to the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. I have been there for concerts yes, I have been all around Nashville and live downtown so Ryman Auditorium is not far from me. I have been to and seen Ryman Auditorium, Bridgestone Arena and Gaylord Opryland by Opry Mills and many many others

Just curious. I'd like to go some day.

I was in Norway---but only at Rygge airport, waiting for a flight to Mallorca.

My wife spent two days in Oslo with her son, though.

I hope they had a nice time - it's a green and relaxed city

I'm off to get my beauty sleep. Good night

Losing.

I haven't been here that long but it seems to me that judging by your posts you're good at expressing yourself/communicating in a dark sort of way.

There's a market for that. Not just dark like horror stories but I'm sure there are / have been authors and screen writers and poets, etc who just come from a more brooding sort of place.

I'm not quite sure how to say what I mean, and I can't think of a good example person right now, but I know that your posts often have very few words but still manage to convey a very strong emotion, and that is a kind of talent in my opinion.

For what it's worth.

As for my talents.. I type very quickly, about 91 words per minute, though it's not perfect.. but that time DOES include backspacing and correcting so it's fast regardless. Also, I'm very good at appreciating the music which I love. And I'm very good with credit scores and credit repair, budgeting, and utilizing lists and calendars to stay organized with bill-paying obligations. My credit score is one of my special interests, put it that way. True story.

I type much faster than I print. I'm also a Visual Learner, so I see things like a movie in my head. I guess that's one reason why I'm good at writing.

I am quite good at imitating animals.
I also have a special way of whining that I recently invented that is the cutest whining in the world, but can also be used to say other things, the cuteness of it blows my mother's mind, it is my total control over her mind.

I can purr like a cat and do a pretty good wolf imitation.

I make animal noises a lot. When I was little, I used sounds and sign language to communicate.
