Hey, i have a 2 year old little boy who is Autistic and he could not talk only babble and even that was mamama at 18/19 months old myself and family were really worried on how behind he was even though we knew it was from his Autism but then we got a Bichon Frise and within a few days my son built up an Immediate bond with this dog, he would sit and stroke her all day long and babble to her and then low and behold my son talks! he talks extremely well now to the point people comment on how well and forward his speech is and i honestly believe it it from this dog we have, he does not eat either never has only picks but lately he does this thing where he will eat a few bites a meal and the only reason he does this?

He shares his food with his best friend porshca (the dog) he gives her a bit then he has a bite then she has a bit then he has a bit and that is the only way we get food down him, she calms him through his meltdowns and he helps to feed her n take her out which gets him out through a park without so much worry where as without her he has meltdowns from walking a different way or kids being there etc etc but with the dog there hes a different child.

My Question however is how do i go about getting porscha to become an official Autism Dog? where she would be able to come with us into shops and to town and buses instead of at the moment i am restricted of where i can take her with my son because shes only a "pet" even though she does amazing things for my son, i don't want to go and get a different "autism" dog as the bond Eli has with Porsh is too strong and she does everything a Autism dog can do but i don't have a clue how to go about getting her trained and given the official label and also so she would be able to make life easier for him with public transport and every day life outside the home?. Thanks :)

Back when I worked in KFC a few years back our timers were pretty serious since we were always close to the top ranked time in our area.

If an item wasn't ready or it was a large order we would ask them to park up. You would get chewed out by the manager if the timer 'beeped' at you. Of course the manager wouldn't help, they would just yell at you.

Sometimes a customer wouldn't accept the fact that the 7 meals they ordered would take more than 60 seconds to make or they wanted a chicken burger with no mayo or something else you really shouldn't use the drive through for so they would refuse to park up and sit there for 10 minutes causing a massive queue, giving you evil eyes whilst you just stand there as there is really nothing you can do until the chicken is cooked. Then you get yelled at by the next 10 customers since they had to wait and you would question what you are doing with your life.

We lost the drive through speed challenge one year. It was heartbreaking until we found out the winning store was sending staff out to walk around the building with metal buckets to set the sensors off and give them really quick times. Assholes.

Hey, I recently went through an ankle fusion 7 months ago. According to all x rays it healed perfectly but I still can't walk for more than a few minute due to pain. It also aches all day and keeps me awake at night. Sometimes I just feel like crying from being so sick of the pain.

I've tried 4 different types of prescribed pain killers and nothing has helped yet. The only thing thats left is morphine, but my Dr is reluctent to give me that for some reason.

You said to ask about chronic pain, so is there any help or advice you can give to at least help me relax at night?

Have you ever used two squeegees whilst jumping through the air?

Is it true that there's a point on a window where if you clean it, it will blow up?

With all the buzz words he's throwing out I'm guessing its an honest AMA with no free advertising motives behind it.
