    A good 3,000+, but not nonstop. After all that driving you start to hallucinate and see the road lines follow you everywhere you walk. TBPM: Most awkward tourist situation you've been in as a tourist?

    Modern. You can engineer that stuff like crazy if you know how :) TBPM: you ever soup up your car?

    Person Below Me

    Yes, I travel often and love the feeling of just coming back home :) TPBM: if a zombie horde wearing underwear helmets was pursuing you, what would you use to fend them off?

    urgent question

    Didn't find any signs on multiple sites (signingsavvy, handspeak, ASLpro, and lifeprint) for that. I wish I could be of more help!

    Question about the name deaf and blind school

    Hey, just wanted to say you rock. Side thought here: Why not look towards reframing disability into the skills people with "disabilities" have as a result of their disabilities? These are skills people without disabilities don't have and these skills can translate into major advantages.

    ASL and Deaf Culture

    One thing to consider is that Colonialism (as per Dr. Paddy Ladd's examinations of the devastating colonization of the Deaf world from 1880-present) tends to create fragmented identities, the effects of which you're potentially seeing. I can recommend academic literature that addresses this...

    What does PAH mean? And when would you use it?

    I would use PAH in March, June, November, August, January, April, October, January, May, July, September, December, and February. ;) Not in Junetember, though. Bad month for PAH.

    Person Below Me

    Solo mainstreamed. I remember one day I did a project that blew away all the Yale/Princeton/Harvard-minded kids in a science competition. It was a big deal because winning this particular competition really bolstered your college apps. I'll never forget the look on their faces when they...

    Hello, not sure where to being ...

    Joe, I respect you wholeheartedly for taking this journey with your partner. I know of many hearing people who do not make the effort to learn to sign for their Deaf partner. For you to go out and do this, you get mad props from me. Signed, A fan. :)

    Gallaudet University

    Absolutely! One of the major benefits of Gallaudet is it gives you space to really introspect and develop yourself as you would if you had no communication barriers. That might sound trivial to some, but it's massive when you spend most of your life in the hearing world. You'll run into many...

    the first deaf president???

    I love the idea! There are enormous cognitive advantages to being Deaf that many people don't have. I like to think about how those advantages might play out in a presidency. :) If I were President, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the fella for that role, I'd start by giving everyone free cookies...

    Building Confidence - Initiating small talk

    I think reframing helps tremendously. I train myself with the mindset of "As a Deaf/etc person, I am pretty darn badass and I can do things that hearing people can't do." And if you take the time to look at the gifts of Deaf people, they are BADASSSSSS. For one thing, did you know the the CIA...

    What are you thinking about? Part VIII

    I'm thinking about how freaking awesome Gallaudet is, especially the part where you're in a full communication environment for once!
