Wow, you have the same colour glasses and HAs as me and made the same comment to your audi as I made to mine! You must have good taste. ;) I'm a professional photographer and to be honest it's not a problem having colour HAs in my line of work. In fact, I get a lot of comments from...

What is the difficulty he's having with fingerspelling??? I'm dyslexic, and I can't imagine much, seriously! The issues with spelling that dyslexics face are related to written text and the reversals/transposing of letters on the page. When fingerspelling, the letters don't change from one...

Miss P, that's not true at all. I'm diabetic. I eat all my favourite foods - they're all healthy but even if they weren't I could still eat them. I eat chocolate, that's no problem either. I have Type 1 diabetes - That's treated with insulin injections, not banning certain foods...

I like tulips, miniature roses, jasmine, cherry blossoms, forget-me-nots, and lots of others! I grow most of those at home in my own garden, except tulips. I also grow bromiliads and orchids, so if anyone wants tips on those, I am happy to tell you what works for me. :)

gnarlydorkette, try the all girl string quartet called BOND, they do great instrumental music, and if you get one of their older albums, called 'born' (which will probably be cheaper by now, since they have a new one out), then I can tell you there are some great songs on there that have awesome...

Thanks Rose Immortal, she's a great kid! :) She loves reading, and science best of all, but is very into math at the moment because it's so useful in understanding the science she's interested in. She hates math at school, but then they only cover roughly age appropriate work. (Though she is...

I am Jewish, and I just have to correct Momoftwo here, being Jewish has nothing to do with Jesus. It's NOT a name we made up to say we're not Christian. We were Jewish long before there were any Christians at all. Jesus was Jewish - how can the word Jewish mean '...don't beleive in Jesus'...

Uh huh, well let me put it this way... I was mainstreamed all through school with no accommodations at all. They just expected me to compensate for multiple disabilities by finding unique coping strategies of my own, using my intellectual giftedness. (I was assessed as being...

I vary between fluent, highly functional, and comfortably functional in a dozen languages - some signed, some spoken/written. I love learning languages!

My Favourites in order are: Numb3rs (I am BIG fan of David Krumholtz!) CSI - Crime Scene Investigation CSI - Miami NCIS House Bro'Town (New Zealand made cartoon) Rove (Australian show) Campbell Live (New Zealand Show)

My daughter (6 & 3/4 years old) has just finished the first 3 books in this series. She loves them, so I'm looking forward to taking her to the movie! :) The movie was shot here in New Zealand, and the Director - Andrew Adamson is a New Zealander. So a lot of people here will be excited...

Teresh, Oticon do brightly coloured HA's too, so do several others, not just Phonak. Oticon's website has a feature that shows you all their BTE colours, and lets you try them on people's photos to see how they look. You can also get coloured tubing and coloured earmoulds, etc, ones with...

Ooooh, thank you so much Dennis & DreamyHawaii! :) I really appreciate the warm thoughts! :) Thank you!

Grace after meals here. :) We eat together at the dining table, no TV during mealtime, that's family time.

What sort of minorities within the minority are you looking for? I'm Jewish, and have lots of links I could pass on to you on being both Deaf & Jewish if that would help? There are definately 'minority within a minority' issues there! I'd also look at other religious, ethnic, disability...

Yeah, good point! I just thought it might end the debate as to if he is Christian or not, if he answered instead of people trying to figure it out, so that it can get back to topic. :)

Ok, so is it ok to ask him then? :) RS, would you be prepared to share if you are Christian or not, and what your experience is? (Then people might know if it is relevant.) You don't have to answer, ofc, but it looks like people might be interested!

:cry: Oh, that's sad. I think he still had young children, even though he was elderly himself, they lost their dad now. Bye Scotty, beamed up to the final frontier! I loved that show & the movies! Oh no, don't say that! I know he's in his 70's now but I loved Spock best of all, I don't...

Thank you R3na3Blyth3! Yes it feels great. :) C.C.Sinned - Thanks Dennis! :) Thank you very much flyfishfemme! Actually yes, prints of this image are for sale now. It's not available to buy online yet, but when my new website is up in a few weeks it should be! :)

Thank you so much julysrain, I really appreciate it! :)
