(sorry for the much delayed response...) To be honest, I don't know. He's hearing but since that post, he's allowed his ASE certification lapse. Now he's an electrical engineer and claims that the ASE certification was for his car enthusiast days and to make money to pay for schooling. If...

I was experimenting with cubism and picked something simple (like flowers) back in high school.

I've had two of the cars that are on the list. The scion xB.. I got pulled over twice in. And one more time in my mothers xB. I currently drive the scion tC.... Never been pulled over, never been questioned. In the state of Illinois, its illegal to have the front windows tinted.. but...

Thanks Anij. Thats a lot of info and it helps. Initially we're going to start with high school students to get started, but our ultimate goal is to make it for all ages. Funding is limited but hopefully we can raise money and bring awareness to the local and surrounding communities of a...

I kind of had a language of my own when I was a kid. Slippers = nikkerslores Bandages = babages grasshoppers = peacesnappers black birds = blackabir Thats all I can remember.. or at least what my parents managed to remember and figure out.

Its all good... Still somewhat new to the site. I've only been here for a couple of months.

I'd like for it to be all ages... and I think it would be better if it it did. The closest school for the deaf is in Springfield which is about a 5 1/2 hour drive from here. I do know of a bunch of deaf camps (lion's and ISD camps), so I'd be able to suggest to parents/kids of places to go...

Thanks for the suggestions. I kind of lucked out when I went to a high school that had a deaf program... so I had the social support system. Before high school, I went to a grade school where I was the only deaf student in the district... So when they did have that after school programme...

This 'she/he' is a she. :laugh2:

Have any of you tried using a WD media player? This device you can plug a hard drive into it (or a thumb drive). When you play the video file, you can opt to turn on the .srt file as well (provided that both files are named the same way). All of my movies are in digital format so I just...

I received an email about a week ago from an acquaintance of mine that works at an advocacy centre for anyone with a disability. She wanted help in forming (or reforming) a support system for deaf students and to help prepare them for whatever they choose to do with their life after grade...

:iolol: ... Since this thread is supposed to be about tyres (or tires), and not the English language, shall we get back to it? If we really want to debate the different spellings and pronunciations of the different words from the different parts of the world, then I motion we start a thread...

I just started getting into playing video games. Between the boyfriend and I, it seems like we own almost every gaming station. The current favourite is the PS3. I've been playing the God of War series.

Just because I'm American, does not mean I don't have an English upbringing. I used to write a lot of emails and letters to my English relatives, so out of habit and from reading, I picked up their spellings. I also read a lot of books, so I get my fair share of various spellings. I used to...

Technically speaking, no.. I'm American. My mum's side of the family are all English. Her brothers still reside in Europe. My boyfriend and I fought with the place that we bought the tyres from. Initially they claimed it was vandalism because at the time only one of the tyres had an issue...
