    Hey guys im new at this ......

    Wait... It's not a dating site? Damn. And here I am saving up money for a mail order groom (would that be a mail order male?). What a waste! :lol:

    Oh serious.. please...

    I'm confused, was the introduction casual and personal or was it while they were working?

    Cravings....

    Wow! That's what I had a few days ago, but from a different restaurant. I'm only now beginning to forgive myself and move on. Choose wisely, my friend :lol:

    Gender Vs Handicap Vs Race Vs Etc...

    Then imagine she is a foreigner or naturalized citizen, elderly, and overweight. Why is it that people make value judgments about others based on inconsequential things?

    ASL Song - Summer Nights

    Would you do something more along the lines of her trying to resist or her saying no to him? And I love the neanderthal aspect of dragging her out by her hair :) It's very "me Tarzan, you Jane" and very Danny!

    11-Year-Old Girl Helps Deliver Baby

    I'm 24 and I don't think I could have handled that situation half as well as that little girl :) And that baby is really freaking adorable and I'm so not a baby person!

    Life in Prison for Juveniles

    Wow. Can you imagine being imprisoned when you were 13 and being released 20 or 30 years later? I'm actually not sure it isn't more cruel to release them, at least not without some sort of intensive debriefing counseling or something -- like when military men come back from combat. They...

    Big Bird's still huge as 'Sesame Street' hits 40

    I loved Sesame Street when I was little. My brother is 12 years older than me. There aren't many things a 4 year old girl and a 16 year old boy can bond over, but he would sit with me and watch Sesame Street on Sunday mornings before church because he loved it when he was a kid, too :) Of...

    Have you ever...

    I was just thinking the same thing. Every dorm I've ever been in (8 or 9 from 4 very different colleges and universities) have strobe fire alarms. They're installed as standard not just for deaf/hoh students, but also to help prevent harm to heavy sleepers, people using ear plugs (really...

    What's in a Name?

    My name is Erin and that seems weirdly personal for the internet :) We moved to Ireland when I was little and my parents thought there would be lots of Erins, what with it being an "irish" name. Fail. There was a brand of soup called "Erin," but that was it. I got called Erin Soup a lot. Or...

    Maternal Grandfather

    :giggle: You are totally the favorite person of the day! I'm in tears from laughing so hard.

    Maternal Grandfather

    :roll: Ah, yes. I see how very different they are now. On the one hand, those blasted asl students need to interview deaf people. On the other hand, you just have to interview deaf people. Wait a minute...

    Hearing women dating deaf/HoH men

    I think maybe the issue with hearing/deaf relationships is the same issues with any relationships that involve two different cultures, no matter what those cultures might be. Language and communication are an obvious one. A french woman and an english man couldn't date and have a healthy...

    Maths and English

    I'm terrible at math. It's just not how my brain works. I found that the best thing is to have at least two different people teach you whatever you are trying to learn -- the more people who explain it to you, the better! Sometimes, the teacher will only explain a concept one way, but someone...

    ASL Song - Summer Nights

    Oh! You answered my questions :ty: I need to learn to read all the posts more closely before I post... or maybe avoid posting at three in the morning!

    ASL Song - Summer Nights

    Yeah, it doesn't make sense a lot of the time, or maybe I'm just misunderstanding because my signing skills are poor. When the boy interprets "did you get very far?" he signs about distance, which isn't what they're talking about at all. The song means did you get very far with the...

    Girly stuff, like shoes, makeup, hair, etc.

    Whatever, we all know you have a secret love of facials or 'man' purses or something. Don't act like you don't :)

    Is it okay for someone with hearing to teach deaf students?

    We were only talking about you because you may or may not be perverted :lol: But I think I know what you mean -- I can always tell home schooled children from standard (I mean, public or private) schooled children based on little things too. How they interact with other kids, how they...

    Girly stuff, like shoes, makeup, hair, etc.

    I realized today that I have a problem. I own 11 tubes of mascara. That's right, 11. Some are multiples -- buy one get one free!-- but that only accounts for four of the eleven. How many tubes are normal? It's not like they're all the same brand. That's my problem. A new mascara comes out...
