Sorry you had a hard time reading a direct quote.

What happened to Data's Proctologist?

He started the exam but then... Data rectum.

Oh man, I might have to get this for the nostalgia.

I had a 1988 Pontiac 6000. I took out the radio/tape unit and replaced it with a CD player. My goddam cruise control was disabled after that. They've been running other systems through the radio forever.

From what I've learned about LSD and psilocybin in popular science they do sound like effective tools for depression, PTSD and enhancing creativity. I don't have the means or the will to try and get it or experiment with illegal substances. I think therapies should definitely be developed around their application though. A coming of age right would also be very interesting.

I'd say most people would learn the alphabet and the order together. The order (and song) is a helpful mnemonic to learn the letters faster.

Is it OK to feel sorry for you? The thought of doing this has never even crossed my mind. People would describe me as a very optimistic and happy person though. I guess I just don't need any drugs for escape, although I do enjoy jumping into a video game and beating up some bad guys. Dynasty Warriors is great therapy.

That's fascinating how you learned all the letters but never put them into an ordinal system. Definitely presents an alternate thinking mechanism than I think most people use. Must have been very tough on you in school as most schools don't handle people who think differently very well.

The left/right thing is probably much more common. I think it's interesting how you use the political compass as your visual reference. I for a long time couldn't remember which political party was left or right, but found I was very good at just 'knowing' left and right, as well as the cardinal directions n/s/e/w. My friend who was horrible at telling left from right would hold up both hands and extend his index and thumb. Whichever hand formed an "L" was his left hand and he used that all the time.

How did you manage this one?

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

Why? I've just never been interested on altering my mood or perceptions using an external source. I don't even like the effects of alcohol.
