I Picked Up Garbage On The Beach With The LA Dodgers

Early this morning, I took the bus to Santa Monica (a suburb of Los Angeles which is also my city of birth) to pick up garbage on the beach with the LA Dodgers. I'd previously picked up garbage on the beach as a student at VGW, but the LA Dodgers hadn't been involved until now. The Dodgers there were legion. Among the current Dodgers included outfielder #27 Matt Kemp (whose brother is autistic and is dedicated to curing the disease), shortstop #15 Rafael Furcal (a native of the Dominican Republic who was an All Star in 2010), outfielder #10 Tony Gwynn Jr. (the son of the legendary Hall of Famer who was just signed this past offseason), outfielder #31 Jay Gibbons (a known steroid user who was acquired by the Dodgers late last year, his first MLB action since 2007), and outfielder #35 Gabe Kapler (a Jew whom the Dodgers recently signed as a non-roster invitee). Former retired Dodgers included outfielder #15 Shawn Green (a Jew who would always refuse to play on Yom Kippur), first baseman #6 Steve Garvey (a member of the legendary Dodgers infield during the 1970s), pitcher #34 Fernando Valenzuela (a native of Mexico who pitched a no-hitter in 1990 and is currently a Spanish-language broadcaster), #30 Daryl Thomas (whom I'd previously never heard of), and "Sweet" Lou Johnson (a member of the 1965 World Series champions, I couldn't see his number because he was wearing a jacket; it may've been 41 but I'm not sure. Fernando also had a jacket on but I already knew his number). Also there was radio broadcaster Charley Steiner, whom I believe is Jewish and was also one of the original broadcasters at ESPN in 1979. We all had a fun time picking up garbage. My group was lead by Rafael Furcal and Shawn Green. We picked up 8 pounds of garbage, but the winning group picked up 30. They were led by Gabe Kapler and "Sweet" Lou Johnson. There was also a raffle afterwards, but I didn't win anything. I did perfectly well around normal people, and I did not flip out. I don't think anyone even knew that I was autistic. The event was filmed for the Time Warner Cable channel "Dodgers On Demand" and was broadcast on the radio by AM 570 KLAC. They also took a group photo, so I am in that and I may be seen On Demand as well.

Letter From Phil Gluyas

Well, I received a letter in the mail today (not by service of process like I did last time) that was addressed to me from Phil Gluyas in Australia. I read it, and promptly tossed it in the recycling bin. I was clearly written in his hand, and had his signature scribbled on the bottom along with some stamp that may very well have been fake. It basically was a form of him rambling online, except on paper. He complained about how I (legally) view his website, and tried to state that the US Constitution didn't apply to me. Unfortunately, he was wrong on both counts. He even tried to say that I should stay off of his websites that aren't IP blocked, and that I shouldn't even mention his name at all. Unfortunately for him, that violates my right to free speech, so he loses there as well. He also made his usual bizarre statements, such as that I am an "abuser of autistic civil rights" and that I "threaten him and his family," neither of which are true. Seeing the rantings of a lunatic about oneself is not stalking, and is not jeopardizing to anyone's mental health. He even cited some random statute, but it doesn't take a genius to know that his argument would never stand in court. He also threatened to press charges, but I am in another country and cannot be extradited. I will continue to view Phil's website (via a proxy) and there ain't a thing he can do about it. Phil just needs to learn that if you say shit on the Internet, it's gonna come back to bite you. He also needs to know not to whine and cry when things don't go his way. The world doesn't revolve around him, and his hypocrisy can only last so long.

Post Number 100/Email From UK

Well, this is the 100th post I've done here on AIB since I started last March. This is a huge milestone for me considering all that I've experienced within the past year. My goal is to do at least 100 more posts (barring an absolute miracle, which right now I just don't see happening), before I close this blog down for good. This is definitely a milestone, but the real celebration will be for the one-year anniversary of this blog next month.

But, now to the main topic of this post. This morning, I received an email from Beverly Harp, a grad student at the University of Kentucky (in Lexington) who is doing a study on autistic bloggers. I answered all of her questions to the best of my ability, and expressed how thankful I was that people are giving equal weight to my side of the issue in addition to the other side. In the past, I'd seen visitors from UK on my StatCounter, so now I know what that was all about. This proves that I am getting genuine and legitimate recognition, and that people take me seriously. First, Long Beach State cites me in a paper, and now UK contacts me and asks me to participate in a study. God only knows what will happen next.

On a side note, I am going to a concert tomorrow night. It's The Decemberists (I've seen them before), and it's at the Wiltern Theater which is in Koreatown. Hopefully, this will go better than the last concert that I went to, where Badly Drawn Boy walked off the stage simply because I was autistic. However, I am confident that it will go smoothly, as nearly all of the other concerts that I have gone to have.

Darts (Lotion Lotion Lotion)

When I lived in New Haven, Connecticut back in the mid-1990's, our neighbors had a dartboard that made a bizarre sound that resembles the words, "lotion, lotion, lotion" when you connected with a dart. Because we Aspergians tend to bizarrely process sounds as words, the feminine sanitizing cream stuck. Sensory mix-up is an unfortunate side effect of Asperger's syndrome, which is more evidence of the need for a cure. People who suffer from alektorophobia (fear of chickens) are much more likely to avoid going to a Bruce Springsteen concert, not only because they turn the lites off, but because the keyboard solo in "Badlands" as well as the violin solo in "Waitin' on a Sunny Day" both resemble the sound of a chicken. No matter, however, because Bruce Springsteen cares so much about autistic people. He proved this not only by performing at an Autism Speaks benefit, but by turning the lites on instead of off when he sings "Born to Run" to accomodate those with sensory issues.

Speaking of lotion, it is not masculine for a guy to use it, at all. All Aspergian young men should be taught to avoid lotion at all costs, so that they do not appear gay or homosexual. Because it is a sin to have sex with a man, autistic boys should be taught that being strait is the only option. Aspergian boys may be subject to exploitation, or demasculization, from their bullying peers. Behavior like this must be stopped, because it can severely jeopardize a man's sexual orientation.

Speaking of orientation, Freddie Mercury was gay. That's why he kicked the bucket due to AIDS at the age of 45. Had he listened to God, maybe he would still be singing today. Nonetheless, he was a great singer and Queen was a great band. Shortly before his death, Freddie Mercury recorded a song entitled, "The Show Must Go On." Its lyrics are eerily haunting, and it was the last Queen song to be released during Freddie Mercury's lifetime. He never got to sing it live, but it has become a live staple for Queen in the post-Freddie era. It, of course, has to be sung in a lower key, because no other male singer has the range of Freddie Mercury.

Autism is a horrendous disease that needs to be cured. Please join me in the fight against it. It will not be easy, but it is worth it, and in the end, we will emerge victorious.

Super Bowl XLV

I'm mostly a baseball fan, but I do watch football as well, and I don't know a single American who doesn't watch the Super Bowl, so I feel I must report on this. The Green Bay Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 31-25. The game took place at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The Packers led 21-3 at one point, but the Steelers made it close and turned it into an exciting game. The Packers won their 4th Super Bowl ever, behind only the Steelers as well as the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers. This was their first Super Bowl since they controversially dumped Brett Favre in favor of Aaron Rodgers, which turned out to be the right decision. They also won the first ever Super Bowl under coach Vince Lombardi, after whom the Super Bowl trophy is named. Aaron Rodgers was named the MVP. The Packers are the only team in America that is publicly traded, meaning that 180,000 owners just won the Super Bowl.

The Black Eyed Peas performed at halftime, becoming the first non-classic rock band to perform since Janet Jackson showed her boobs in 2004, which was also the last time it was played in Texas. Reviews were mixed, but they were way better than Christina Aguilera, who badly fucked up the lyrics to our National Anthem.


I was rooting for the Packers, only because the Steelers have been dominant in recent years. But during the regular season, I do not have a team to root for because LA has lacked an NFL team since the mid-1990's when the Rams moved to St. Louis and the Raiders moved to Oakland. There is currently a major push underway to build an NFL stadium downtown (Farmer's Field) so that one and possibly two NFL teams could relocate to LA. The two most likely to relocate at this point are the San Diego Chargers (who play in an old, antiquated stadium) and the Minnesota Vikings (whose roof fell down during a snowstorm in December). The goal is to get the stadium built by 2015 so that it can host Super Bowl L, which would be the semicentennial of which the first was in LA as well.

Perhaps one reason why I follow baseball more than football is due to the fact that we have a local team. We have one within our city limits, two within our metropolitan area, and five within our state. I am a Dodger fan (not an Angel fan because they bullshit everyone about where they actually play), but perhaps if an NFL team moved here I would be a fan of them as well. Baseball has a much longer season than football, as its teams play 162 games a year instead of only 16. Baseball also plays every day, while football plays only once a week. There are some positives of not having a team, though. We never get blackouts, and most of the games on TV involve good teams rather than some shitty local team. Some people say that the NFL really doesn't want a team in LA because then it couldn't be used as a bargaining chip to build stadiums in other cities. There might not even be an NFL season next year due to a labor lockout.

Anyway, football season is over now, but there is good news on the horizon, because pitchers and catchers start reporting to Spring Training next week.

A TruthMeister of Lies

This "TruthMeister" guy is anything but. Not only does he claim to tell the truth, but he censors me when I do. He now moderates comments, so I won't be commenting there anymore. He and all of Phil's buddies claim that I committed a crime simply by viewing Phil's website, which is utter bullshit. Not only is it not stalking, but it isn't burglary either, and that claim is even more ridiculous. A website is not property, it is merely a piece of cyberspace. If you are gonna leave a point of access to your website, you shouldn't whine and cry when someone takes advantage of that. When I used the Newport Beach IP address, all I did was type in the URL. I didn't even use a proxy then (although I do now), and that isn't even remotely burglary. However, even all the dumbfucks over at Phil's World seem to be somewhat suspicious of this "TruthMeister" guy, so he is bad news. How many dumbfucks can there be? First STFU, then the Asspie Hater, and now the TruthMeister? I'm still convinced that STFU and the TruthMeister are one and the same, but even if they aren't they are both bad people.

Andrew Ackner Admits To Spamming My Blog

Well, Andrew Ackner has waived his 5th Amendment rights and publicly admitted to writing all those horrendous comments on my blog. He didn't realize that Phil can't block IPs from his blog lobby, so he wouldn't have admitted to it otherwise. He also claimed that it would be inadmissible evidence because he thought I was blocked, but that isn't true either. In fact, it is a crime to cover up evidence that could implicate you. That is called "obstruction of justice," and is partially what Bill Clinton got impeached for although he was acquitted due to insufficient evidence as well as the fact that the Republicans lacked a supermajority in the Senate. Anyway, Andrew had the right to remain silent under the 5th Amendment, but he voluntarily gave up that right, so as per Miranda v. Arizona, anything he says can and would be used against him in a court of law if I followed up. I don't think I will (because I have better shit to do), but if you are stupid enough to give up your constitutional rights, you shouldn't expect much good to happen. Also, even though Andrew was directly responsible for his horrendous comments, Phil was indirectly responsible as well. The fact that he did not publicly disown Andrew for those means that he endorses them and thus is indirectly responsible. One does not actually have to type on the keyboard. For example, one can get the death penalty for murder in California even if he did not pull the trigger, so it is the same principle albeit less severe in nature.

Phil's World Idiot Of The Year!

I just found out that all the dumbfucks over at Phil's World have named me the 2010 Idiot of the Year! Let me just say that I accept this award with great pride and honor. If Phil and his whack pack think that I'm an idiot, then I must be doing something right! Not even John Best has ever received this honor, but maybe he will follow in my footsteps. I am a better person, and autism needs to be cured. Winning this award proves that Phil is the real idiot and I am smart enough to bring change to the world in the form of a cure for autism. This is the best award I have ever won. Way better than any of the ones at VGW. This award proves that I am sane and that all NDs are whackjobs. It would be analagous th the Democrats giving me Worst Person of the Year because I am a Republican, or Giant fans making me worst person of the year because I am a Dodger fan. I would want to be perceived as bad by those people, so this means that I am making a very strong push for a cure and am gaining steam. Fuck you, Phil's World and company! Your website will come crashing down, but I must say this award proves who the real idiot is (hint: it's not me).
