Bottesini, I think you have it all wrong. There is no reference to ASL or Deaf people. Like I said I was just remembering old days. I would not be taking ASL courses if I thought Deaf people are sub-human. I said it might not funny to a lot of you because you might not get the point...

I only had two ASL classes but I'm completely drawn into ASL. I work long hours but I try to practice at my desk whenever I get a chance.

I'm a beginning ASL student. Is there a good resource for learning facial expression and body posture? I'm slowly learning that I really need to learn the correct facial expression--I'm a slow learner. Please help.

I put myself through college and graduate school. I worked on Wall Street and now I'm doing well financially. However, my personal life is completely broke. I still work 80+ hours a week, sometimes 100 chasing after the elusive next level of achievement. There were times when I'd travel so much...

I like to think math as a language like ASL or English. I think a lot of people have fear or aversion to math from the way we learned math in elementary school.

I used to live in NYC. My friend bought a car for $200--it even had A/C and power windows. Driving that car was the best experience I've ever had in NYC driving. We didn't care about bumps, potholes or tight parking spots. As my friend would say, ". . .hey my shoes are more expensive than this...

Thank you!
