Unfortunately, no.
Wouldn't suit me, I have Aspergers, and as a result a reasonably high IQ. So I have to be doing SOMETHING (with my mind anyway).
Anybody know where to get cheap supplies of vitamin E and Zinc?
LMAO Well FT, we have some things in common then. I'm married to a philippina (from Mindanao, South Cotabato) and I also have Aspergers, wich gives me sometimes a brainoverload  (I think too much). Best regards, Kodiak.

Kodiak,
My girl is from Surigao province, and yes, Aspergers can be a pain (I have an IQ of 168, and I can only sleep for five hours a night).
Has its downside like everything else.
Kindest regards,
AJ

. If you ever move to the US you should consider working for NASA or JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratories).

Well, I WANT to move to the U.S, at this stage probably early next year, but I need to find out if I can qualify to live there or not. Your consulate here wants about $5 per minute just to enquire by phone!
Kindest regards,
AJ

 Doing what I do best... not working, just enjoying a good beer. This was three weeks ago in Cologne. Hmmmm, you look a lot like my brother.

Dude, that's creepy.
FishTaco,
I know it sounds odd, but I'd try for an F-1 student visa first if you can, try to get into school here. A lot more people lining up to work than to go to school here.
I'd make an appointment with a local consular official and see them in person, explain your situation.

Kodiak,

Has its downside like everything else. That is weird... I have the exact same IQ, and I can also only sleep 5 hours per night. I have always thought it was the SDT training I recieved in the Navy that caused that, but I guess it was like that even before the Navy... BTW, yesterday (July 24) marked my 20th Anniversary of joining the Navy. I don't think I have Aspergers... Although I seem to exhibit many of the symptoms... but I have never been diagnosed with it, so I do not think that I have it... But I really don't know. Strange. -Skater

Hmmmm, you look a lot like my brother. Interesting... We even share the same name, more or less (part of my real name is Willem, the Dutch version of William). And I have a sister too (five years younger than me). He must be a real nice guy

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

woohoo, SimHQ sticker, cool, good job!
So, all our member fees support car racing? - Good to know... Yep, that's why the car is a lime green Dodge Neon with Weasy driving instead of a GT-1 Corvette with Johnny O'Connell driving.
