maybe it's the redhead in you :hmm:

Ignoring it doesn't necessarily condones it, I doubt any of you would be willing to go up to the KKK and try explaining to them why hating colored people is a bad idea, but that doesn't meant that you are for the KKK. Same with religion. In school I would try to fight for what I believed was...

I learned the hard way that the only person you hurt by fuming over another person's discriminatory behavior is yourself, that person has already made up their mind and its no use trying to change it and if you try you'll become exausted and frustrated. Don't take their problems on yourself. The...

Sorry, i meant the neighbor's (Dr. Manson Cogswell) daughter, Alice Cogswell.

Thomas Gallaudet was asked by his neighbor to travel Europe to find a tutor for his deaf daughter, Alice. While Gallaudet was doing this, he met Abbe Sicard, head of the Institution Nationale des Sourds-Muets a Paris (National Institution of Deaf-mute in Paris) who invited him to come and study...

Do deaf people's ears feel funny at high elevations like hearing people's?

I'm thinking about how long the last 11 minutes of class/school seem to drag on forever and how evil senoritis (idk how to spell that) is.

botts, how far do you live from the University?

I was doing the sign wrong :lol: I was thinking of the sign for caucasian

I'd have to agree with you. Employees at fast food restaurants are, in fact, people too, and you don't know how they're day, week, or life has been going up to the point that you ordered your meal, who knows? I work at A&W and i've had a bunch of rough stuff come my way, could i concentrate on...

I can only imagine the torture. So do people deaf from birth get songs stuck in there heads too?

in that case maybe i should change my identity before i go :P
