Hunger Strike: Day Two
Think I drank too much yesterday. Feeling a little achey, but, that's probably because I'm 43. (Ha!) I will do a video later on today and upload it to YouTube. I'm actually more determined now. I've been asked to be a guest blogger at...

Hunger Strike: Day One
I'm stocking up on broccoli, green tea, water, rice, matzos and natural cranberry juice to keep my kidneys in good shape. I will not record a video today. This is the majority of what I live on now. I will not leave this regimen for 30 days or more...

My Wonderful Aspie Life
I've been very fortunate to do some things in life that many will never do. I did all of these things not knowing I had autism. Although my life had major challenges, I kept my head up. I fought through many moments that I felt I couldn't live...

I Live With Autism 24/7, 365.
I'm really glad that I have a place to express myself. My family is 100% behind my efforts to, in a "blue collar" way, inform the general public about what it's like to live with mild autism. It's not been pretty for me. I express...

I've decided that it's time to get everyone in on this movement. I'm going to share this particular blog with the entire world. Everyone's been asking me what they can do to help get the word out. Well, the only thing that I know really...

What else do I need to do to let the general public know that there are families like mine that had to cope with autism without the advantages of therapy? What else do I need to do to let the media know there are families, like mine, unable to take advantage...

Adults With Autism: Are We the New "Big Foot"?
I just heard on a program discussing autism that autistic adults don't exist today. To quote the gentleman, " Adults with autism...where are they ?" Umm, does that mean that adults on the spectrum are the new "Big Foot"? People...

Autism? Really?
Part of being fully informed about autism is to understand that people in the medical profession are not infallible. Doctors do make mistakes and often have to reassess an initial diagnosis. There are many illnessess in this world and too many of them...

Cost Is No Joke in Hard Economic Times
This will be the most serious blog I've done and maybe the shortest. I want everyone to really get the point of this. The average cost of raising a child, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is $199,628.00. This is from birth to age...

Time To Change the Language
Why would anyone want to "walk for autism"? That just doesn't sound right to me. Why would someone say they are "fighting for autism"? What does that actually mean? I understand that if not taken literally, one could surmize that these...

Self Induced Clarity
I'm not sure that's even a proper way to describe what I have to do to get things done. As many of you know, running a business is not easy even for the brightest among us. It takes a certain amount of physical "hands on stuff" as well...

Socially Reconnecting: A Conscious Effort
The toughest thing for me to do is to reconnect with people I've met in the past. These experiences all made me who I am today and the unique spin on this is that I have AS. All of what I've learned in life I've seen through this very special...

I Wrote A Book
I thought it would be useful to tell my story. It's a unique look at the way I processed things while I was in the military to making the decision to be in the entertainment industry. I think many NT's will find this interesting. This is a blunt...

What the ASN community has done for my self esteem is nothing short of amazing! I know the facts about my life. They are kinda undisputable. I've done what I've done. My experiences in the music industry were not very memorable because of the...

Educate the Educators
I'm seeing increasingly more conversations about our educators not understanding how to "handle" Asperger children. This is an easy one. My mother knew me and my brothers very well. No, she didn't have a fancy diagnosis for us. She...

The Discovery of Autism Was Objective and Positive
I talk a lot about changing the perception of what many people believe autistic people are like. Even when one takes a closer look at the clinical definition of autism, there is nothing that suggests it is dangerous or contagious. So why (especially in...
