    Newly discovered HOH-ness

    I tried that and gave up when i realized that I could sell my car and STILL not have enough for the new aids I needed. Then I'd be out my car and still trying to save more. Fortunately someone recommended vocational rehab. SO now I'm getting new aids that will work with the amplified...

    Ticking time bomb in your bathroom? Exploding toilets prompt recall

    My old toilet doesn't seem such a pain anymore after reading that. I'll take having to replace parts and seals over having it explode!

    Texas woman sues Cowboys over claims that buttocks was burned

    This reminds me of a customer we had at work yesterday! It's been in the high 90s here, which is very rare. Most houses don't have air conditioning even. An hour south of Seattle. We are used to rain! It was so hot and the sun was shining right on our doors which have metal brass handles...

    Menieres

    Do you get drop attacks or did you just get so dizzy that you fell? I live in fear that I'll start getting drop attacks. I can usually handle being dizzy but drop attacks out of no where would drive me mad!

    Cornell accepted me

    CONGRATULATIONS! I know vet school is incredibly difficult to get into. If you contact the school, I bet they would be able to tell you about the good places of town to live in. Check on craigs list for other students looking for roommates or place your own ad. Sometimes schools will even...

    Does anyone know of a Deaf film maker or a website for this?

    Have you tried looking for info about some of the deaf film festivals around the world? I bet you could find contact info on the websites for the films.

    Dissapointed with House Ear Clinic

    I have to admit I know almost nothing about the ABR test, but I am very familiar with EEGs and ECGs which test electrical activity in the brain and in the heart. I'm guessing the ABR somehow tests for electrical activity in the auditory nerve? If so, then the results of the test would be...

    Drought, heat bring spiders out

    German house spiders and brown recluses look nearly identical. They compete for habitat though. If you know you have german house spiders then chances are you do not have brown recluses.

    Meniere's and Student Loans

    I too have meniers. I've been lucky, that my vertigo has been infrequent. With help from vocational rehab for hearing aids, I can still work, but I could so easily be where you are. I definitely signed.

    13 years old boys steal mom's BMW and drive from Ohio to Missouri

    Wow. I have to say, I'm impressed! I doubt I could have reached the pedals at 13.

    % vs dB-hate it

    Thats what prompted me to get my hearing tested when I first learned I was losing my hearing. I asked my partner if he had felt the little earthquake. He looked at me like I was nuts and said it was a helicopter.

    Ride with Pride!

    None of the gay people actually in this discussion read that ad as promoting a special discount. I don't know why you did. It's promoting that kids ride for half off. The sexual orientation of the parents has NOTHING to do with the deal. Discriminating based on sexual preference isn't...

    Ride with Pride!

    Being gay doesn't make me stupid. It says kids ride for half price, not "only your kids ride for half price because you're a giant homo". When you see pictures of straight families in advertising do you assume that the advertised deal is only for heterosexuals?
