There is a very sad and interesting history behind the AIDS epidemic. Scientists now believe that AIDS origionated in a monkey, probably from Africa. The animal strain of AIDS mutated and was transfered to humans. Now... Go back in time to World War II. the army was searching out and...

If that happened, I would start getting suspicious... But, it would not be considered "adultry" yet. The act of sex with another person other than your spouse would be "adultry", but NOT the act of private, hidden conversations. Still, if that were to happen to me, I would probably start...

Marriage! I'm getting married to my long-time boyfriend and high school sweetheart in 10 days! We've been together since I was 14 yrs old... So, we've been together for almost 9 years. I'm so excited and happy! Good news! :)

I have friends that had to kick out their roomate (and friend) out of their place because he didn't pay rent for a few months. THEN he "borrowed" money from all the people that would still speak with him (he "borowed" from me and my fiance, too). He continued to "borrow" from whoever would...

Ugh... Voicing. I'm an uncertified terp right now (although, I passed the new RID-NAD Written Test of Knowledge 1 yr ago... YAY!). I've been working as a provisional interpreter for the past year through a local agency. Now, to answer your question... Many d/Deaf clients that I have had...

Check out the Deaf Expos or other Deaf events. I went to the MATA Deaf Expo in Long Beach, CA 8 months ago, and the were giving out sidekicks for $50. Not free, but better than $250.
