    Turning off the Voice?

    Okay, this may be my most bizarre question, ever. But, here it goes. I want to learn ASL. Normally when I try to learn a language, I immerse myself in the language. I try to even think in that language. I am having a real problem with that, however, when it comes to ASL. I try to watch...

    Question about ASL class?

    Hey I was just wondering if it is normal for an ASL class to have no interaction with the Deaf community or people who actually use ASL as their main language? We have a sign language class in our university communication disorders department, but it seems to be mainly for speech-language...

    This could only happen to me.

    So my husband bought a catapult last weekend to make... it was from a little kit, with wooden pieces. Since then, he has amused himself by launching little balls of clay across the house. Then, he got bored, and launched peanut M&Ms at me, trying to get them down my shirt. :giggle: A...
