I wouldn't let it bother you mhotrodscooter. I picked up on it quick at SCR and just changed my questions to give you yes or no answers. I didn't hang around and talk too much only because I thought maybe you were uncomfortable. Most people won't think much of it and just change the way they ask questions to help you out. Only dicks would make a big deal of it.

Trying to order food & having someone laughing in the back ground sucks the most! Were all men here, with a few ladies! If we ever meet @ a track or meet . Give me time I'll get it out.. Most of the time I bring a buddy with me that knows everything & can answer for me, but like @ SCR I didn't so I just stayed to myself! That's all I got to say about this..
Hey man even though i personally don't have a handicap my son who is now 15 was born with a cleft pallet. For many year's he faced **** like that everyday from kid's classmates, because of his speech. Even after 3 major reconstructive surgeries, year's of speech therapy, sign language classes he will never be 100%. But his attitude towards that is he doesn't give a crap what other people think. My kid tells me all the time the people who make fun of him are really the ones with the handicap.

I know what he is going through, of corse in my day it caused a lot of fighting. Teachers would call me out to read out loud & it sucked.. As we all got older it got better.

lots of people will fit into that . . . It's either the way that they've been rasied, or their "crowd" or click



ADD, learning disability . . highly distracted, CRS (can't remember ****). . .
Drives my wife up the walls . . .

I'll studder/mumble . . . whatever. I can't remember **** to save my life sometimes. I have to write just about everything down while I'm at work, or lay it all out on my calendar on my phone. I'll forward my work crap to my google account, and it'll link them together from my phone. - huge help

Ask me to write out a report . . . and I'll labor over it.
Ask me anything about engines or computers, and I can fix just about anything mechanical or resight specs.
