    Should Prostitute Be Legal?

    It's not about control; just legalize prostitution. It's about the lack of code of ethics - or rather the lack of a common ground in achieving and utilizing plain old ethics - within the open and wide (pun unintended) industry of sex workers. When there's isn't a system of standards, there's a...

    Blockbuster Online vs Netflix

    I prefer Netflix. I've tried Blockbuster before but at least two to three times during the BB membership my DVD rental would get lost in the mail.... Frustrating! NF membership - never had a problem with DVD rentals disappearing during transit. Plus I love, love, love foreign and...

    What About Other Sign Languages?

    In response to another thread regarding sign language being the hottest topic ever.... something popped back into my mind, so here's a new thread, y'all. WHERE could we begin to learn foreign sign language? Does Gallaudet/CSUN/NTID/ASU or any other educational institution provide classes...

    Question about the word "audism"

    Beautiful question. I kept thinking about this when "audism" had a Deaf community hot-topic rebirth last year in NY throughout my circles of peers. I even once remarked that I was an audist myself to a good Deaf friend of mine and and Deaf ex-fiance. Understandably this was not taken quite...

    First day of a week?

    Wow.. My bad. I had always assumed that Sunday was the same day of rest via the Bible. Interesting lesson. Thanks, Reba! It's probably time for me to hit the Bible and read again. *blush* LOL P.S. I'm a she, alright! ;)

    In your dreams

    Loving this thread! I usually voice in my dreams as if I were hearing. Every once in a while I find myself awakening and realizing that I had been signing or gesturing in my dream. I also scream during R.E.M. but most of the time I don't awake because I can't hear myself without hearing...

    Any Deaf Interior Designer Out There?

    Hey, I think MetroGuy03 should consider participating in the HGTV Design Star series after his ID studies. He would have the largest fan base via AD, no doubt! ;) Best of success, MetroGuy03.

    First day of a week?

    Sunday 'cause our Western calendar says so. But the Bible says the seventh day is Sunday. So Sunday is simultaneously our first and last day of the week. *ha* But Monday is also our first day because that's when we sing our weekly blues. ;) Oh, at my workplace the first day of the...

    Do you use blow-dryer on your hair?

    Voted no. Blow-drying literally kills curls' natural form. Not only that, my hair would lose its gravity and fly in every direction as if I were in the outer space. I don't think the blow-dryer was invented with curly-haired people in mind!

    AllDeaf Caucus 2008 - POLL!!!

    *shrug* I'd lean either way. Heck, you've got cheap-ass hotels that would probably market far better as bare-necessities-only campgrounds and trendy hotels jumping onto the 'green wave' claiming they're luxurious and/or eco-friendly campgrounds to die for.

    Not quite the newbie.

    Hiya. Nickname's Peep. Aside from bein' much of an occasional lurker at AD, I'm a profoundly deaf, er, Deaf gal who doesn't know where to begin in introducing herself. Not! I'll be quick: I was conceived on Calvert Street in Charles Village, Baltimore; unexpectedly born in the state of...
