Damn it, I completely froze up trying to attend the meetup at Fashion Square. I saw all those people there and I just felt everything go blank. I couldn't bring myself to even say, "Hi." I'm sure they all think I was just some weirdo hearing person. I'm usually not a shy person, but come new...

I haven't seen a whole lot of meetings available for Deaf meet ups. I've been trying to find some people in the Orlando/Winter Park area and I'm feeling kind of discouraged since I've come up dry. My ASL is so-so, but I seem to be coming up short on places on Orlando for classes other than those...

I too am curious which others [that are deaf] in the Central Florida area, more specifically Winter Park and Orlando, live around here. A meetup would be worth looking into.

Well, the most basic approach of CSS is the element, property, description and its values. CSS further allows for better editing by affecting individual elements through classes and id's though ID have special properties that classes do not, mainly in the identification one particular and...

Wouldn't say this site is number one in my list seeing as how Smash Bros consumes my life. My number one is SmashBoards.com where I am a writer for their blog.

You shouldn't give it out in the sense that any random geek needs to know, but as long as you have most of your unused ports set to silent operation and you're not running any other services on your computer which require the use, then you should be fine. IP addresses change based on DHCP, so...

Wrong kind of CSS, this CSS stands for Cascading Styling Sheets, it is used to help seperate content from design. And what exactly do you want done with it?

It's not a matter of all the good they do, it's a matter that bad things keep happening because of religion. Without religion, there is no doubt that there would be fewer reasons for a "Crusade" to happen. You don't need religion to tell you to do good things, people who do good things because...

Actually the reason I'm an atheist myself is because I did read the bible and found nothing but misogynistic, misanthropic, sexist and violent beliefs for a deity people believe is all loving and kind. When you speak to God its religion, but if God speaks to you, you're up for candidacy for a...

I usually go to Steak N' Shake quite a bit, but this does kind of bother me. I don't know if I'd stop going there simply because of one incident though. Companies in general don't do well financially through intentionally bad customer service so I don't think Steak N' Shake will let something...

While the fingerspelling was the only thing I ever mastered and never forgot I definitely won't turn down any offer for help. I'm sure I will and I appreciate all the positive response to a new member. Thanks.

I was guilty of that recently in a way. I had apologized to the deaf customer I was helping and told him I have been interested in learning, but time and money have previously not made it possible. While the statement was honestly true, I can see how that can come off as patronizing as well. I...

Whoops, meant to PM someone, ignore this.

While the laughing isn't very nice, I think his intent is to shake up the status quo running through a customer service representative's mind. They are supposed to accommodate the customer. This would be no different than any other disability and it shouldn't be up to those who are disabled or...

I think the better question is, foreign in what context? I think the term Foreign Language for colleges is a horrible misuse of the word since the name assumes you know English. ASL, I recognize as a language and think any college should do the same.
