    Writing in English?

    I've never heard of deafvideotv before, but I'm excited to check it out. Thanks for helping, I do appreciate it! :) I'm glad that I didn't upset everyone. After reading Mewtilation's response I wanted to crawl in a hole and hide!! I'll be finished with my AA in Deaf Studies this winter and...

    Writing in English?

    I'm very sorry to have offended or insulted you, that was never my intent. Please accept my apology and know I honestly didn't want to upset anyone. You make a good point about some writing in ASL structure out of habit or to save time, yet being able to comprehend written English easily enough...

    Soon to be interpreter - Reno, NV :)

    If you have a community college nearby you should look for ASL classes, that's how I started learning! I took ASL 1 when I was 17 and just fell in love with the language, culture, and people. If you're not able to take a class, maybe look online at websites like lifeprint.com that have beginner...

    I LOVE Tahoe!! I don't get to go as often as you, but usually about one time a month in the summer. I don't like the snow and am TERRIBLE at snowboarding, so I like Tahoe more in the spring and summer. And Reno isn't all that bad, lol. I like it more than I expected, but I was very disappointed...

    Writing in English?

    Haha, that's awesome! I WISH I had a turbocharged vehicle!! I bet if I did I'd be more concerned with that than stressing out about boring old English ;) maybe that's the answer to my problems...I just need a fancy car!! Sent from my iPhone using AllDeaf

    Writing in English?

    This is a good observation, I think it applies to all people, both hearing and Deaf. I know for me, I was much better with math in high school. Now when my son asks for help with his math homework I'm completely confused and often have to look online to help remember how to solve the problems. I...

    Writing in English?

    Thanks everyone for your responses. Now that I think about it that really was a silly question, lol. I'm still new here and I think I was just so nervous about fitting in that I freaked out a little ::face-palm:: Now that all the awkwardness is gone and I can relax a little, I promise to not...

    Soon to be interpreter - Reno, NV :)

    Haha, there are Deaf in Reno but the community is REALLY small...maybe they did get lost inside the casinos! I grew up in SoCal and there were about 3,000 Deaf in my city. When I moved to Reno I was shocked to see that there were not many Deaf people or events for Deaf here. :( Sent from my...

    Writing in English?

    First, please know I don't want to be rude or offend anyone. If my question offends anyone, I really am sorry and will delete the thread (if I can?). I am hearing and wanted to know about writing to Deaf. I understand that reading/writing in English can be hard for some, but there are a lot of...

    Cross-country flight diverted after dog poops

    Lol, that's funny they landed the plane for dog poop. I think it would have been easier to just grab a plastic bag, clean it up, then flush it down the toilet. Right?? Sent from my iPhone using AllDeaf

    California Serial Rapist to be released in July

    I agree!! If the judge wouldn't want to live with him, then why should anyone else have to?? I think the judge would have changed his mind if the rapist decided he wanted to move next door to him. Sent from my iPhone using AllDeaf

    California Serial Rapist to be released in July

    This guy is going to be living in my hometown :/ I don't live there anymore, but many friends and family still do. Very scary and sad to know that he will be walking around free and could be anywhere you go. Sent from my iPhone using AllDeaf

    z5 mobile app

    Hello! This week a Deaf friend and I went to a presentation about the z5 Video Relay. He uses Sorenson but was thinking about switching to z5. Someone told me there is a version of z5 for hearing people, called z5H and I could sign up so we can video chat. I can't find it in the AppStore for...
