I don't mind it either. I went from being born with something wrong (no one in those days had a clue). Then a non-doctor got me a hearing aid and I got through life that way. Now, I cannot hear. I'm with whatdidyousay! as a hearing to HoH to deaf person that I don't care if I'm called HoH...

I don't need a link to an article as this is pretty common news. While it was fine the federal government gave same sex marriage equal rights, at a state level, they were not always in synch. I sent some requests to different media to ask them how does filing at a federal level mess up not...

COLTS obviously without Manning. Their QB has surpassed some of Manning's records already. Booooooo Cowboys!

Yup and they did it a few times. The Lions roared the first half and we grimaced in the second. Cowboys were horrible at the beginning and thankfully, Romo got hit a lot (nicely but sacked). Packers are good (go Aaron) but their pattern is get a bye week and come back and lose.

Valid question and if memory serves me correctly (we're going back @30 years) she did. It was a time-consuming process. It doesn't mean they changed what was suggested, though. I'm also a technical writer (or was) throughout my career and as times changed in IT, I became an overpaid...

Tis true and if they're caught (it shouldn't be hard to do), they're in massive trouble and it's fine with me. I don't have a problem with this law. If you drink and you're over the legal limit, stay off the streets. Weed will be a different issue. There's something that will show up...

Can we even up the police who trampled on us and got away with it. Who herded us into dark one-way allies scaring the living xxxx out of us. Who abuse their power and have the blue line of protection and then deny it? We'll never even up the score (and that's for kids...) but this makes me...

CA has always set the standards and the rest of the country followed along. I lived there for a while (San Jose - Silicon Valley). It's also (let me say LA was also) really smoggy there and it was worse than NYC.

Reba, We have free exams, too. But they're not close to the same as the real exam. I played with the freebees and passed both car and motorcycle exams but the freebees to me weren't very good or close. When you speak and write a different language, how in the world can you take a driver...

Yes, and so does any organization who sees multi-cultures. But it doesn't seem to be the way life works. I volunteered to give a powerpoint presentation in two hospitals who don't know how to deal with me (hoh/deaf) and you (Deaf) and it would've been free. I was turned down. Idiotas. Sorry...

You got us :) ! Tinnitus city, hard of hearing, and Deaf and deaf. What a great place :hmm:

Revenge? Lesson learned for others? Letting go?

Okiedokie! That's what I wanted to write but couldn't because I'm not a lawyer :) ! Yeah!

I didn't like the deaf and hard of hearing group on linkedin butttt, you may. You also have the option of hiding the group name if it hasn't changed in six years. I ended up taking one guy (with my like-mindset - scary, I know) and we corresponded offline because we were Monster is or was an...

I like rockin'robin a lot. She's a smart cookie with what she posts and my consensus is with you this time. It's a continuation of a mentality that should be toast. I'd rather work on understanding people. Many of us are not anti-dDeaf. I may bitch a lot on the forum but with complete...

rockin’robin: You know I was hearing and I still am in the hearing world. I think you also realize I respect you. But I have some issues (not with you) with some of what’s stated. 1. If a dDeaf person came up with a video for teaching baby sign, they’d make the profits along with...

This is very different. You're talking about guys keeping the folks (who primarily speak Spanish) from crossing the border or returning them to Mexico. Knowing Spanish in a job that requires it is mandatory (yes, that's redundant). This is about potentially many different cultures, including...

Hey, rockin'robin: We (my partner and I) live with the idea of death and all that surrounds it on a weekly basis, sometimes daily. Talking about it is taboo and it's ridiculous. I have a sister 16 years younger who doesn't like my writing her about my cleaning up. I'm preparing for either...

Just one more quick note. Anyone can sue anyone or anything. We see it constantly (well, I do). Hence my suggestions for a free consultation. There are other things I can write but I don't want to give anyone any ideas since I'm not a lawyer... Best of luck.
