    warren jeffs

    I don't think Warren Jeffs has the money to buy himself out of this one. But his church might. He is a very sick man. He thinks that our laws do not apply to him A typical sociopath.

    Interview with Terri Irwin on 20/20

    Why can't the news media leave people alone? At least for a decent length of time while they are mourning. Terri told Barbara that she has her Faith and Barbara replied, "Faith in WHAT?" That is going a little too far. But I presume all the questions and answers were planned in advance.

    Interesting Trend in NY

    I got called up for jury duty 2 different times. Both times, I was not chosen. The lawyers do not have to give a reason, remember? So it is pretty tough to actually get onto a jury if you are deaf. I enjoyed myself tho and they imported 2 interpreters from another large town, they took...

    Free Online Sign Dictionary - NEEDS YOUR HELP

    Hmm, I think if you are familiar with Banjo's new vlog, you will understand more about what I am calling TRUE ASL. Of course we have new words, that is to be expected and Banjo knows how to use them in true ASL. Example: The word priorities. When I was growing up, that word would have...

    I got updated

    I think you probably have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. My husband had both hands done and one of my sons, too. The therapist tells me it is rare for a Signing deaf person to have CTS because we use such a wide range of motions. It is people who use consistent motions that it hits. My husband...

    Looking for home system

    I have the Simplicity system in most rooms. But we have had alot of trouble with it and I know that other deafies have too. I liked my old "Phone/TTY" set up much better and it never gave me any problems. You can purchase your choice of models from any catalogue that carries deaf...

    711 relay ended

    The only problem I have with i711 is that I never received a confirmation email -- never! Even tho I have tried many, many times. So I cannot have my own personal i711. But I still use the i711 itself. I have noticed that at least one operator has very poor spelling! Terrible.

    Banjo's First Vlog

    Banjo's FIRST :bowdown: Banjo, you outdid yourself on your first try! Wonderful. And your long fingers make your ASL so very understandable and smoothe. You have talent! I think your avatar picture is a great improvement! I don't think anyone would notice "the eyes" unless they were...

    Wonderful Thank you for posting this url. I am sending it on to many native signers who are from several generations of deaf ASL users. We must do something to protect true ASL before it disappears completely. Thanks again!

    I hate AOL

    I do not like AOL either. For one, it is a monopoly. And when I receive forwards, jokes, etc. from an AOL address, it takes many clicks to open it. Usually, I just delete them without opening. I have noticed that many deafies have AOL. 'Crab theory, you know.

    Ever expierenced this?

    B.B. just what do you mean by "growing up oral". Are you DEAF yourself? Then you have a very good excuse, just tell them that you cannot hear well enough to interpret. I became deaf at age 10 and have maintained good speech, and have found that a few deafies like to depend on me for...

    Ssi . .

    Moochers SSI was meant to help disabled persons to get on their feet while (or until) they found a job to support themselves. It was not meant to be a freebie for lazy-assed deaf folks who do not want to work. Eventually the government will get wise and all the SSI peeps will be out in the...
