Hmmm Maybe Beethoven's Nightmare could add a bassoonist to their line up? Those guys are proof that being deaf does not deny a music career. Or look at Beethoven himself. Some say he did his best work when he went deaf!

Hey!!! That's enough of the S-word..... Don't let the flakey stuff hear/see you talk about it, or it will make an appearance! ;) It hasn't snowed yet in my part of the world, and I hope to keep it that way!

I'm bad at LR no matter who it is....

She thinks it's a waste of time to learn. Granted a heart condition,,, well, you know... Anyway, She claims she can read lips perfectly! I tried going silent, and when she repeated back and I said wrong, I was either lying or distorting my lips to purposefully throw things off. I also wonder...

I'm hard of hearing, and may go totaly deaf some day. My life partner refuses to try to learn sign. When I try and sneak in a lesson, and she catches it, she cusses me out and tells me I need to learn to read lips. IDK if it's because I have a bit of dyslexia, but I find it next to impossible...

I had kids throw snowballs at my news truck once. However, I knew it was coming because I saw them hit the car in front of me to. Then in my rear view I saw them hit the car behind me. I called the police department (on the business line not 911) and advised. They said they already knew and...

I know I have no been around much either. I'm HoH and may most likely go deaf. Anywho, my problem is life just kind of got in the way. This page is even bookmarked in my favorites, and when I open them I always say to myself "I need to get back there," but I just can't seem to find the time...

So if we had a zombie apocalypse, How would you do? Would you survive like Rick and his group? Would end up zombie food? Would you get bit and turn? Other? Personally, I think if I didn't get bit in the first couple months, and hooked up with a group, I'd be ok. I'd probably be my groups...

If you can't fix it with duck tape, it probably wasn't broken to start with! ;)

I just tell people that I'm HoH, and my left ear is the better. They are usually understanding and compliant.

We got our first skift of snow for the season. Well,,, I guess it's time to start Christmas shopping :o

I used to work in the news dpt of my local NBC affiliate. Bizarre doesn't begin to cover some of the things I've seen,,,, but one of my faves.... One of our photogs was spooked by a grasshopper, and in a panic chucked his camera over 25 feet! However, props to Panasonic... Our chief engineer...

In my part of Ohio, we has 80's last week, this week has been in the low 60's... Next week is supposed to be back in the 80's! Talk about a roller coaster ride!!!

Titanium ear bones?!?! I like the sound of that. (Ha!!! That's very punny) Last time I told what needed done though, they said I need to wait until they seperate completely. They don't want to do it while I still have some hearing left, because if it goes wrong, I risk loosing all hearing. In...

Well, I find this thread very informative. Not only for the research for my project in ASL class, but, also what I have to look forward to in the future. (bones in my middle ear are separating)

If you cold name something hearing people do that annoys you, or you find rude what would that thing be? A frequently asked question, something they do, (like yell) something else? Thanks.

My in-laws had Thanksgiving that day because a couple family members are in the medical profession and had to work on Thanksgiving. I want NOTHING to do with Black Friday, the county fair, or any other thing with large crowds of people pushing and shoving each other. I had more than enough of...

Cleveland is a rough town. If a 12 year old was brandishing something that realistic looking I would have shot him to. If it were in Mayberry however, it might be a different story. How bad is Cleveland? Well... One of our local ambulance drivers once told me they have to pre-strip their...

All over the place! It was about 50 degrees give or take when I took the dogs out this morning. We could see a high today around 80! Welcome to Ohio, one or the few states where you can run both your heater and AC unit, all in the same day! (Especially mid to early fall, and mid to late...

But I am learning for when the day comes that I'll need to depend on it!
