Hello Zer and the rest of the Gang, You know as i log onto this
discussion board it's so nice to get away from everybody else, all
of those people who are such a failure in my life to actually
respond to my posts and show that they actually care :(. I never
would have that i would be coming back here as a salvation away from
a place that was once a salvation, but never again, no more. The
FAMSecretSociety discussion boards lately have become nothing but
talk about politics,religion and sexual orientation in order to
prevent the spread of STDs (sexually transmitted diseases). And i'm
telling Tom that has nothing to do with aspergers syndrome, but
that's not the only thing that's bothering me right now. The fact
that it has gone from aspergers syndrome board to an "all topics"
board has almost come as no surprise to me.

But what really bothers me is how every time i post something in
reply to a post that was especially written for me, people do not
reply to my posts >:O. They merely overlook it and respond to
somebody elses posts. It's as if i don't even exist, it makes me
feel like i'm not even here, it's like i'm not even in the
discussion board to begin with it's like i don't even matter
anymore :(. I've had times where things have gotten rough in life
but you know what i've realized today as i took a moment away from
the discussion boards and was checking my voice mail? "That real
life friends are far more better than internet friends."

It doesn't matter how much you have accomplished with your internet
friends that still doesn't overpower the kind of friendship you
would get from a true friendship in real life. My aspie friend Chris
has been wanting to join the bowling league with me lately for about
the past month and i left him a voice message on his cell phone
letting him know my realization and thanking him for being here for
me. It is people like him that i could not live without, that and my
aspie friend Tom who also wants to join the League. I don't need my
internet friends, they're all a bunch of social wannabe's all they
do is talk and talk and talk and accomplish nothing even close to a
friendship. They don't even know what true friendship is so why do
they fumble around in all these daily toilings like robots every day
trying to do the impossible? It's not only impossible to stand them
but it's also intolerable.

The FAM society has become a place where you go if you want to get
frustrated over posting a long 4 or 5 paragraph post and then feel
ignored and blown off by the entire society because nobody cares
about you. That's why there are so many other discussion boards on
yahoo is because alot of the time society can't support itself let
alone eachother. It's a really sad day of the autistic community :(,
i don't think that they'll ever recover from this problem and to be
quite honest if they ever do i will probably be an old fogi by the
time they do or as some might say "an old fart" :P. So they can post
and post away but i'm growing old and frustrated and accomplishing
as much as i can in what little time i have.

In terms of what's going on in my life right now i'm currently
attending classes at a college called PCDI (professional career
development institute) the place is located down in Georgia but it's
a home based study class so i can do all my studying at home
whenever i want :) i just have to get the work done. So right now i
should probably be doing homework,lol. So anyways i'm studying
Visual Basic 6.0 it's an object oriented/event driven program unlike
windows which just kills the idea of the do it yourself programs
because it is made of a GUI (graphical user interface) aka "gooey."
With Visual basic you can create the environment you want by
clicking on boxes on the toolbar box and you can create horizontal
scroll bars, vertical scroll bars, pointers, text boxes,etc.

Basically you can create the entire web environment on Visual Basic
using a form on a graphical interface :) it's very interesting. So
anyways i will let you go that is the latest on things right now i'm
single and looking but things are looking up in that department some
girl from Ferndale,Michigan dropped me a line recently her name's
Kayla and so i hope to hear from her soon she's 18 and pretty :). I
hope to have a chance to hook up with her i wrote her some beautiful
poetry and a nice letter in response. I hope to hear from you
soon,good luck in all you do.


Signed,
Greg
Sorry if i haven't come here more often Zer you're a good friend of
mine and you know i'm beginning to realize that you have a better
realization of aspergers syndrome and what it's all about and the
internet and stuff than Tom and his group of hooligans on FAM
do,lol. Sorry but i'm old fashioned Zer i like to do the old a/s/l
check if you don't mind :).
