    Recent Movie About Dating A Deaf Woman

    I saw that movie and unfortunately, I didn't care for it. It was like they threw in everything including the kitchen sink. Also, I don't think the actress was Deaf, but I could be wrong. It probably didn't help that I saw the movie while home sick either. It comes on Lifetime Movies all the...

    Medicare Information Video in ASL

    I don't know where to put this, but... CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) has released a video on both YouTube and their website for people who need information about Medicare. The video is signed and closed captioned. I am mentioning it here in case anyone needs this...

    ASL Class Problem

    Two cosmopolitans and one figure skating session later and I'm feeling much better now. Thank you everyone for the suggestions. Jazzberry, I too am surprised at the limited resources in NYC. It's New York City; you'd think there would be more choices. Westchester and upstate NY have more...

    how to get over someone.. ?!?!

    I agree. Block this jerk from everything. Afterwards, take a shower and wash him off and never, ever turn back. He doesn't deserve you. He may realize this one day, but you will have gone on by then. If I had taken my own advice about 10 years ago, I wouldn't have been nursing a broken...

    ASL Class Problem

    I have another update: Last night was my last class (this level anyway) and I was told that the same teacher will be teaching level 6.:jaw: But it gets worse. The school needs 4 people to hold a class. Without the HS student, we only have 3. Miss HS Student gladly waved her hand and...

    Thinking on deaf...

    Depending on the show, I sometimes use CC when watching TV. I rented the movie "Brokeback Mountain" and had to use CC because no one spoke clearly trying to do southern accents. Glad I didn't see it in the movies.

    Has anyone heard how Al Lepre is doing? I've asked around and no one seems to know. Also, any ideas about the AD party?

    why so many deaf single men?

    If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: My only criteria for dating a man is that he's kind to me and isn't already in a relationship. Color, hearing, Deaf, age, job... doesn't matter to me. I am still, however, very single. I think it's me.:hmm:

    Does that fact that Ashton Kutcher cheated make him less hot?

    For me, Ashton Kutcher, still hot. But then again, I don't know him, nor am I married to him. :cool2:

    Expressions which not make sense deaf people

    This is all I know about the cat's pajamas... Back in the 1920's all the really cool people were called "cats" especially if they were jazz musicians. As for the pajamas part, I've often wondered myself. Tried to put a hat on my cat years ago; still have the scars...

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    Thanks! :ty: And you're right. The more I think about those people, the more I think how pathetic their lives are. Just another group of idiots to cross off my list...:dance2:

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    I majored in English and I've forgotten everything I once knew about phonics... Here, however, is a recent, stupid (not annoying or ignorant, but actually stupid) hearing people story. Went to dinner with a friend and five acquaintances. Was talking to friend about my classes in ASL, when...

    ASL Class Problem

    I haven't joined yet; was waiting until after the holidays. Or at least until payday. Next week, I'll be attending my first NYCBDA meeting (NYC Black Deaf Advocates). Looking forward to it. What I find even sadder than the two from school was the woman at the Deaf Event who was in level 4...

    How do you translate a piece of music into ASL without being too Englishicized?

    I have no idea how to put links into my comments (help please!) but my favorite is Pump It by BStorm. You'll find it on YouTube under the title: Pump It ala ASL. That and his version of Crazy, which is on his website. There's another guy, but the name has done a think disappear on me.:giggle:

    ASL Class Problem

    Just thought I'd give you all a follow-up. The high school girl in my University class who knows nothing and does her HS homework will not be going on to the next level. The instructor isn't going to pass her. I am annoyed that she got to this level because the other instructors thought...

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    ASH345, I am certainly no expert in relationships (could tell you horror stories about some of the guys I've dated...) but your SO sounds like a real winner (not!) Trying to get you to speak better?!?! What?!? :shock: CSign, don't know what Xtranormal videos are on YouTube (will look in a...

    Annoying ignorant hearing people stories

    ASH345, your ENT has idiots working there. Great about the interp. I'm an ASL student and here's my ignorant hearing people story: When people at work found out I was studying ASL and wanted to become an interp, this is what I got: 1. Why don't Deaf people just write stuff down? 2...
