    2003 Space shuttle diaster

    I was on the far right side of Gracies when you stand at the windows facing the food area. I remember it just like I was there yesterday. Sad. I don't remember where I was when the Columbia broke up in the air. However, I do remember the 9-11 attacks at work and a couple things. I will never...

    What have bullies done to you?

    Not much bullying---a skirmish here and there--all normal growing up stuff. However, I'd encounter a jealous person now and then and it sucks. It was pretty bad my first year at RIT when I was rooming with a jealous hearing roomie with a even worse hearing friend!. We were even getting along...

    I know.... I was not there so I don't know exactly what happened there. I can understand clerks or pppl calling out. I doubt he heard them before the guy jumped him.

    Assaulted outside of Wal-Mart by "cop"

    This happened with my guy at Walmart one night 2 years ago. He had a few beers after work and minding his own business. He walked out with a bottle of water that he didn't pay for. Ooops. He got grabbed by one of their Loss Prevention people. Now, my guy isn't someone that you can incite...

    O.J. Simpson Found Guilty of Armed Robbery

    Jillio, I think I know the exact golf course your dad plays at because it's so close to his house, and OJ's. I used to drive on the streets to work, often past the house from my old place few miles away. I really liked that house but it wasn't the same once he bought that place for $675,000. I...

    Marlee Matlin

    Hmmm, sounds like I'm "not culturally Deaf enough". Hey, that is OK!!!! At least I love and appreciate my Deaf friends out there. Because of this, it's easier to understand the Black culture and how the color of skin has a factor in some aspects of that culture.

    Eating out

    I've had people order for me after asking me what I wanted, guys take me out, pointing to the menu or just plain stating what I want. It varies. Sometimes I order for the family. Sometimes I let my guy do the ordering. NO BIG DEAL. Sometimes it's nice to get the help when it's offered in this...

    Anybody working on debt?

    Oh I forgot about the ER bills! I settled for a low, low payment plan on two of the ER bills from last September. Paying those--but calling to settle these bills in half might help. I'll see about lining up the cash for half those bills and then call them in a few months' time to give them...

    Housewarming party causing a split between friends!

    I know what you mean. It cast such a pall on your friend's party. At least she knows for sure who her REAL friends are. Your friend sounds like someone I'd like and respect very much. That kind of person is pretty cool. The world's getting too small for the negative stuff. Your friend would...

    I had a friend who underwent surgery for her knees and she woke up screaming during the surgery! She was sueing the hospital for that. I think she won the lawsuit. Not sure. But she was winning big time. You have to take body weight into consideration when you administer anesthesia(sp). I...
