Also, my .emacs file:

First of all you need at least Emacs 22 for SLIME HEAD. Also using a more 
recent version of CLISP(>=2.43) would be better.

What does typing (require :asdf) in a Clisp's toplevel give you? I don't
why it tries to open/load ~/asdf.lisp; perhaps an old line in your
.clisprc? Updating Clisp may also solve the issue incidentally.

With respect to the version issues, according to the SLIME website,
the versions I am using should be supported.

(require :asdf) gives...

[1]> (require :asdf)
NIL
[2]>

As for upgrading to newer versions, I have little to no control over
what versions I have access to, since I am not the owner of the
workstation, I just was given a user account for it.
