Dancing With Nothing in my Ear
Drolz Uncensored Aw, crap! Mere hours after I wrote a tongue-in-cheek article about Marlee Matlin's impact on my kids, she got eliminated from Dancing With the Stars. As much as I was kidding around about Sweet Nothing in my Ear, I'd like to add that I'd become a hardcore Dancing With the Stars fan. (This is a huge confession coming from a guy whose TV is usually locked on ESPN.) You...

Drolz Censored by Discover
Drolz Uncensored When my wife made a VRS call to activate our new Discover card, she ran into a roadblock. I never use Discover. But Melanie had the card issued in my name -- something she likes to do to give the impression that I'm the one calling the shots in this household (BWA-HAHAHAHA!!!). So the folks at Discover said sorry, they needed to talk to me first. Melanie then grabbe...

The Greatest Irony: Greater Than I Thought
Drolz Uncensored At the recent National ASLTA conference in Tampa, FL (Oct 25-28), I had the honor of attending both the keynote address and the closing address by Ella Mae Lentz. Sure, I'd seen her vlogs (one of my favorites is "Elephant in the Room") but... to see her in person, WOW! There's no way I can repeat everything she said in my humble little blog.

Drolz Uncensored All the talk about deaf UFC fighter Matt Hamill got the best of my curiousity. I just had to watch his fight against Michael Bisping. What followed was shocking beyond words. I know there are more pressing issues in the world today. I'm ashamed to admit I caved in and watched two freaks of nature slug it out in a cage. But hey, one of them was a DEAF freak, and [...]

Not only does the postcard make no reference to ASL, it actually includes the word "Pathology." It disheartens me because Gallaudet was the place where I got away from pathology and thrived in a strong deaf [...]
