I know in my city, New York, some deaf people have complained that strangers think their CIs are bluetooth headsets for cell phones and they try to steal them. One man I know did get his CI stolen. Luckily it was still under warrenty which also covered theft and he was able to get it replaced...

Hmm, I wonder if pink was a popular fad color for homes at one time? I remember when my parents bought their house the upstairs bathroom had pink fixtures (tub, sink and toilet). My parents bought maroon towels in a feeble attempt to make it more gender neutral. :P I'm guessing the fixtures...

Wow Jane B! Talk about convenience! :) To Lau, you are right, it can be hard to find a audi with convenient hours sometimes. I know that the HearX chain in NYC even closes in mid-day during the week for an hour! Crazy, right! Good luck with your search.

Congrats on the new HAs! I'm glad they are working for you!

That sounds likely also.

RR, sorry that you have to deal with this. I think both you and DC are right. I don't blame you. I hope you tore your sister a new one. I also hope it didn't affect Jayden.

Maybe its louder at school than at home, and that is why he was scratching at his ears? Or there could be a sound at school that is irritating him? I hope the teachers aren't looking for an excuse to send him home. Maybe you could ask to stay until he scratches his ears again, saying...

So funny! He looks like he has a good sense of rhythm also!

OK, that's what I'll try. I bet you're right about the steel cut oats. I'm not looking for extra work so I don't think I'll try to cook the oats first if its not necc. Thanks WDYS! :) ETA: KristinaB, I just saw your post also. Thanks! I also make a salmon loaf from canned salmon...

I'd like to try that. :) What kind of oatmeal do you use as bread crumb substitutes? Rolled oats or steel cut? I assume you don't have to cook them first?

Thanks for the link WDYS. I'm feeling lazy today so I didn't actually read it but I did look at the table of contents. I got the general idea. I probably won't be eating it anymore anyway (I have to cut back on the sugar), and now I have more reasons.

Nutella and ice cream, yum. :)

I agree with everything that people said upthread. Its all very logical, there is nothing to disagree with. But Derek, I have to say I'm surprised. IIRC your other posts correctly, you are really in love with this girl and have been looking forward to marrying her. Didn't you start a...

Besides all the reasons that have been given upthread: time limations fees people don't always end up using them or using them fully they are easy to lose and some people may forget that they have them. I think if you are going to give money it's best to give it in the form of cash or...

An easy way to get the clerk to pay attention to is to have your money held tightly in your hand up in the air. (Held tightly because you don't want anyone to grab it. :shock: ) That get's their attention. I learned that from "pushy" New Yorkers. :) Of course that only works if the same...

That is great news Locochicko! This reminds me of what someone told me a long time ago. Every relationship is going to have difficulties -- there is simply no such thing as a perfect or trouble free relationship. What makes or breaks them is how the two people in the relationship handle...

Hi, I'm posting this for a friend: That's all I know and, no, I don't know why there is so little lead time. I do know who Timothy is though and I think you can all be comfortable that he is not doing this to collect e-mail addresses and spam you. He probably got the request because he...

I don't know. I assume that they will use your real name and that the info will be available on the internet to everyone. I guess it would be a good idea to confirm that. If the answers are yes to both, how do you feel about that? One thing to keep in mind is that its pretty routine for...

Thanks. I just requested it from my library. Me too. And to bring it home to hearing loss, in the past when I have purchased radically improved hearing aids, I have found that my ability to hear continued to improve for as long as 6 months after wearing the new HAs. I attribute that to...

A direct quote from Joseph Santos-Sacchi, Ph.D. .... TXgolfer doesn't mess around! :) Last week he e-mailed Joseph Santos-Sacchi, Ph.D. and asked him to further explain some of the issues that came up in this thread about the ear-brain pathway. I had linked to Dr. Santos-Sacchi's web page...
