I wish I could see you dancing the rumba!

I went to the beach today with my friend and our dogs. He drove us to Brooklyn (Coney Island Beach) and it was a bit cold but still nice. The dogs loved it. And Happy Belated Birthday to your daughter!

Until recently, I thought they cost more because they looked more attractive. :Oops:

coolgirlspyer90, I haven't had the same difficulties as you, but I DO understand parents having HIGH expectations of their kids. I felt sad when you said you felt sick to your stomach because of being worried about telling your parents. :hug: I went against my parents expectations after all...

It's called disboards. The DIS Discussion Forums - DISboards.com - Powered by vBulletin I have been reading that forum for a couple of years when my family planned our trip to Disney World and Disney Cruise. I registered (joined) a couple of months ago so that I would be allowed to ask...

Before I started reading here I thought Deafie was an insult because a long time ago I watched a movie where the hearing kids made fun of a deaf kid by saying "deafie". By calling yourselves Deafies, it takes the power AWAY from the insult. That's great. Oh and I don't mind being called...

I'm going to watch since I will be voting in my first presidential election. I just hope the debate doesn't confuse me even more. I know I agree with more of what one candidate believes in, but the TV ads make him look really bad. :hmm: I've heard that both of them plan on avoiding...

This is so funny to me because when my I was little and being naughty, my parents would scold me and I'd say "Io sono cattivo" back at them in sort of defiance. It's a cool kind of bad and to have someone give that to you as a nickname means you da man, everybody back off! :laugh2:

Ah, good point. I understand. Now I wonder if ASL teachers teach this to the students. I'm guessing in most cases they don't. They just focus on the language and not mention the respect aspect. I could be wrong since I'm not an ASL student.

I'm wondering, what do you think would be a good assignment for a teacher to give an ASL student? Maybe the Deaf community would like to give some new ideas so that there is no more monotony.

Good point. I'll check.

National Language of Deaf Americans just seems like a longer way of saying American Sign Language. I suppose it could be called NLDA, but why, when other countries use the easy way like BSL, NZSL etc?

Mod, please close. I don't want to get in trouble for political threads. I made a mistake.

I'm sorry, Frisky. I didn't see this as a political post. I was just impressed by what he did. I will be more careful with posts like this.

Pres. Obama signs "thank you" I just thought this was cool. President Obama Signs To Deaf Fan - YouTube

Shouldn't this kind of drug be from a clinic and not a school? I just feel weird about schools overstepping the boundary to get involved in things like this. Maybe someday girls can go to the school nurse on her lunch break for abortion services??

I'm thinking of how much easier it would be for college students to have the option of uploading the text books to Kindle. We wouldn't have to carry so many books to class,and it would cost us lots less money to do it this way. Some books are $69 each! That same book woud cost me $14 on Kindle.

I learned to express canine anal sacs. The liquid that comes out smells so bad, but these poor dogs were so uncomfortable with their sacs full, that the smell was nothing compared to how much better these dogs were feeling after the expression. Ity was a good day.

Snuggling with my dog, and reading the DMV website to download the instruction manual for the driving permit exam.

The license with the lady's face all covered? Seriously? :laugh2: Ok I shouldn't laugh because it's her religious beliefs, but it looks funny to even bother to take the picture.
