3 currently, my phone, a tablet, and a smartwatch (if the phone and smartwatch count :D) TPBM: Have you ever ridden/would you ever ride a motorcycle?

As a government employee, I found this not only hilarious, but true :rofl:

Welp, let's dig up this ancient one. I had a lot of personal problems come up (family, work, relocating, etc.) and spent a good majority of my time working and sleeping. I'm finally looking into decent material to help me learn ASL, made a few friends who are deaf and encouraged me to try to...

THAT would but the crap out of me. To have someone talking to you just fine and then on a comment completely ignore you? Good on your husband for turning that back on the doctor, that's not any way to treat someone...

But that's also where it's my job to do independent study as well as whatever class studying I do. That way, if I were to ever realize that I'm flipping "work" and actually describing "having sex," there's a chance for me to correct it before I go out and say something that I shouldn't have...

I wonder if I shouldn't change the title of this thread to "ASL classes and material opinions." It's nice to see all the input coming in, you've all given me a bit to think about. :)

I see what LoveBlue is saying, but I'm not entirely sure that driving a car is good comparison. Learning another language seems to fit better. It would be more beneficial to learn from someone native to the language, learning French from someone who lived in France, for example. Like Dogmom...

I'm not sure if the instructor is deaf or not, but I'm not sure what to think about that specific class now that I know there's better material that can be used and they aren't using it. Definitely! That's why I'm planning on going to a few events and meeting people. I'm going to take a look...

I would have about an hour drive to get near St. Paul, not including driving and navigating the city. Reading the few responses, it seems that my better option would be to look at Signing Naturally and Learning American Sign Language and using those solo instead of any nearby classes. For...

Oh my... I have 2TB of HDD, but I would love to replace it with two of those! The speed it would create, even for my old alienware, games would run amazingly on it!

For security reasons, that's why I put a ballpark area in there, I don't live nearby per say, but close enough that I could drive there after work. I am actually deathly terrified of driving in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area. I don't like driving in crowds mixed with one way streets, so I avoid...

Welcome to the forum! I'm 24 and hearing.

I was engaged when I was 19 and were all set to be married. She was in the army though, so she was called for deployment in her last year. We would talk almost every night, but of course, she had to call since they used private lines when in Iraq. One day, the calls just stopped coming, and I...

Oh my... I do have to agree with Cappy, I enjoy reading Soulvei's posts! Have you ever thought about giving creative writing a try? As far as the events goes, I don't know anything about how groups and therapy works (I had a therapist for suicidal depression, but I nipped it in the bud after...

I tried searching and couldn't find anything on this book, so I'd like to send this out to you guys. I am looking into an ASL class and their base material is integral to this book, "A Basic Course in American Sign Language." I noticed the publishing date was back in 1994. Is this a commonly...
