Each one showing a different characteristic of myself. This one is because I am a child of the 1970's (I think this was only aired in the US, but I'm not sure). </p> <p>This one seemed to fit the best because in 12th grade you had to write our the entire Preamble to the Constituiton completely by memory. Our whole class grew up with Schoolhouse Rock and it is exactly the same except they left out, "of the United States of America." Looking back it was hilarious watching everyone writing it with their heads bobbing up and down to the music in their head.

I don't like the public nature of it. Plus, I do not have the time for it with blogging and stuff. The other reason...I'm texting impaired. I just can't get the hang of it. I can handle a computer and PDA, but texting no can do unless you want me to take half an hour just to type four words. I grew up when the world was slightly different, like I can't play any of the new video games. I grew up with the original Atari (a joystick and a red button) and loved it. However, I can play computer games.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Texting Impaired One </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=75#post-745 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 14:42:36 +0000 ClinicallyClueless 745@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>Does that mean I'm not a genius or MAD professor? :-( I kind of liked being a mad professor. Thank you for participating in the question.</p> <p>Rainman would probably be diagnosed with some type of autism which is a developmental disorder like mental retardation. These do not fall under the class of mental illness although some people do. They are different. With a developmental disorder you can learn adaptive ways of managing everyday life, but thier disorder is not likely to change...they are mentally stuck at a particular age, but they still continue to grow, but at a greatly diminished rate. There is not medication for the delay, but maybe it there are behaviors with it which is usually not the case (unless you had my caseload...just mostly schizophrenia with mental retardation). </p> <p>With a mental illness, there is active treatment that either can eliminate and cure symtoms or manage them. Usually, medications and psychotherapy work the best. Generally bipolar and psychotic (people just hear and see things that aren't there, many are aware that their mind is playing tricks") illnesses such as schizophrenia, psychosis, dissocitative identity disorder (multiple personality) etc, will require medication their whole lives. However, most with mental illness will not. They are very treatable.</p> <p>Okay, more information than you wanted...time to step off the soapbox. </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=75#post-744 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 12:22:30 +0000 Jim & Em 744@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>Erm, when did we say that GIC? It can be a form of 'genius' but not in every case! </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=75#post-743 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 05:12:34 +0000 GarethinChina 743@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>Simply people who have an illness. The main issue they have is sympathy is low as they generally don't look different. For instance you won't see someone openly take the p!ss out of a blind man but you will here plenty about people with mental illness.</p> <p>However I disagree about the theory Jimenem seem to be keen on that all people with a mental problem or some sort of difference are suddenly genius' or some sort of mad professor. Most breakthroughs or developments come from hard work, planing and rational, progressive, logical working.<br /> Occassionally there are cases where some special talent is found or something similar but to tar most sufferers as some sort of 'rainman' is wrong and simply being having a very rosy, romantic and unrealstic/detached view of the world. It is clearly only a miniscule minority. </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=76#post-742 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 20:49:49 +0000 Purple13 742@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>Hi - we've just posted details of our July photo gift competiton - the theme is Weddings!</p> <p>Just order any photo gift from Fabulous Photo Gifts and when you personalise it with a wedding themed photo, we'll enter you into our free monthly competition to also win a deluxe photo panel.</p> <p>Full details over on our Blog - <a href="http://purple13.blogspot.com/2008/07/julys-competiton-wedding-theme-win.html" rel="nofollow">http://purple13.blogspot.com/2008/07/julys-competiton-wedding-theme-win.html</a></p> <p>We'll announce the winner both here and over on our Blog at the beginning of August.</p> <p>Look out in the next few days for our announcement of the winner of June's pet photo competition.</p> <p>Jonathan. </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=75#post-741 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 16:37:54 +0000 Jim & Em 741@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>LOL CC!!!!</p> <p>Forums will take off and start getting busy as we add the viral features here at flowers....at the moment forums are the best kept secret here....</p> <p>The seeds are planted and we'll look back on these quiet times and think WOW!</p> <p>Ssshhhhh :-) </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=32#post-740 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 16:36:03 +0000 Jim & Em 740@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>More....</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCIyzNISw1Q" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCIyzNISw1Q</a> </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=58#post-739 Thu, 26 Jun 2008 21:33:05 +0000 Purple13 739@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>any Twitter's come across <a href="http://www.twellow.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.twellow.com/</a> - its a directory of Twitters by category - neat if you're searching for someone. </p> http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/topic.php?id=75#post-738 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 15:14:40 +0000 ClinicallyClueless 738@http://www.gosmelltheflowers.com/forums/ <p>Oh, good.
