    Jaguars unveil world's largest scoreboards at EverBank Field

    My little brother went yesterday to see it in action. He says it's pretty breathtaking. I can't wait to see it for myself!

    Where are the captioned movie trailers?

    I don't do horror, too much of a wuss. I did see Oldboy, which was pretty depressing and terrifying in a way. The Host and Bittersweet Life were awesome, haven't seen the others, though. I'll have to check them out. My Sassy Girl is a funny comedy that I thought was pretty good (but the...

    Our Doggies.....

    My dog's a Yorkie but he doesn't have a kissing booth, fortunately.

    Pics of you - Part V

    I'm not the most photogenic person in the world. In any case, here's me enjoying a brew at Bold City Brewery in Jacksonville while visiting with family earlier this year:

    Pics of you - Part V

    Probably a BAD idea. It's water-resistant, not water-proof. Very big difference in wording. I wouldn't intentionally dunk your S5 in liquids. Just know that it can handle a few drops of rain or a fall in the toilet without too much trouble. Although I'll never understand how people keep...

    Pics of you - Part V

    What?! I thought it was literally impossible for guys to NOT like redheads. I was convinced that every red-blooded guy I know have a weakness for redheads. Like it is genetically inscribed in us to be attracted to them. Although I hear redheads tend to have wicked tempers and men married to...

    Where are the captioned movie trailers?

    European foreign or ...? I've enjoyed some South Korean films, even though their culture and humor is quite different from our's. They are also really big on tearjerkers, moreso than Americans.

    Where are the captioned movie trailers?

    Unfortunately, I don't think there is any options on that front. Some movie trailers on YouTube may have closed captioning support, but they're quite rare. Enabling closed captioning in iOS settings and using the Apple Movie Trailers app does nothing. Someone has to pay to put them in and...

    Mainstream education question

    I'm glad to hear your perspective, as that answers some of my questions. I've only heard of Gallaudet U the other day when I visited these forums. I'm not sure if I'm against mainstreaming or not, but I do believe that it should be up to professionals who know a lot about it and that it should...

    Mainstream education question

    Has the original poster clarified whether her son is Deaf or HH? I imagine we could give better advice and suggestions if we knew. Reading this thread has me wondering quite a lot about my past. I was always in mainstream classes. In elementary school, I had teachers with a mic and a device...

    Woman Stabs Roommate for Refusing to Stop Listening to The Eagles

    What a witchy woman! She looks pretty annoyed in that pic, though. Must've been a lot of Eagles.

    Saying Hi and About Me

    I didn't go to any blind/vision classes because back then my vision was what it is now, 20/40. It wasn't until about 6-7 years ago that my vision started going downhill. All my HI classes were oral, although most of the other kids in the class knew ASL. I was one of the few who never learned...

    Homeowner killed the fleeing female burglar

    I'm aware of that, and mentioned that in my post. Like I said, he had his blood up and was scared because of that assault. It was likely why he pursued them and continued firing at them. It's a natural human response, not that it was a good thing to do, a calmer mind would've realized that...

    Family pit bull alerts deaf teen of fire

    When I was a teen going to high school, my dad had got drunk one night and passed out. He left all four burners on the stove on high and bread that was near caught fire. Eventually the cabinets caught fire, as well. Apparently the smoke detector was going off, but I didn't hear it, of course...
