What of Luke Adams?
The Countdown To The Resurrection I'm not a fan of The Amazing Race. Once in a while, whenever I get bored, I watch it.  But since it comes at the same time with The Family Guy — I tend to watch the Griffiths over The Amazing Race. Since Gay Boy Ritchie has disappeared off the map from BRAVO's Janice Dickinson's Modelling [...]

Oops! Sorry About It!
The Countdown To The Resurrection I know.  I know.  I basically lost the interest in doing blogging these days.  One has to look at how Deaf people deals with each other ... I simply had no desire to deal with crap like that. But first things first. I'm back.  And I shall blog ... on my own accord.  I'm not going to [...]

The Countdown To The Resurrection After GoAmerica swallowed HOVRS and Verizon TRS, they did not stop as they went on their way to purchase two major interpreting agencies in Washington, DC area in an attempt to control the interpreters from working for other VRS companies.

6: HOVRS — What Is So Special About ‘Em?
The Countdown To The Resurrection Videophones. Like it or not, the videophones are vital to millions of Deaf individuals across not in this country but across the globe.  Like it or not, the videophones are replacing TTYs these days.  More and more Deaf people are tossing the TTYs in the closets and attics.  The videophones, of course, spawned the need for [...]

8: I Don’t Know Where To Begin …
The Countdown To The Resurrection I simply did not bother to blog in the last couple of weeks mainly because I did not know where to begin with everything that has transpired so far. Some of you may be puzzled to see a famous image of Princess Di's funeral whom Prince Charles, Prince Harry, Prince William, Lord Charles Spencer, Diana's sister, [...]

The Countdown To The Resurrection Last week was busy for me.  Work.  Errands.  Time to reflect and all that crap. But rest assured, Hanna's visit was brief and sweet. I have plenty to blog this week.  But not at this moment.  For some reasons, I cannot sleep.  It is 3 AM EST.  I need some Zs in order to get up early [...]

The Countdown To The Resurrection Oh lord. Word gets around that Martin Ritchie is going to star on Oxygen Channel's Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency.  Martin Ritchie is Deaf.  At first, I did not recognize him ... I realized, “Oh, my gosh.” I knew Martin when he was a toddler.  He was quite hyperactive kid but relatively nice boy.  He used to live [...]

14: Beijing 2008 Opening Ceremony = Spectacular!
The Countdown To The Resurrection I really feel sorry for London 2012 Committee. Beijing has provided the best opening ceremony I ever had seen in any Olympics. Normally, these 3 to 5 hours of opening ceremony tends to be overbearing at times. But last Friday's 8-8-08 Opening Ceremony, I never felt the need to endure the whole program. [...]

15: Only $50,000?!
The Countdown To The Resurrection Not a long while ago on another blogsite, I wrote an entry blasting the local cops in St. Paul for their brutality upon a Deaf individual, Douglas Bahl. Suffice to say, the local press in Twin Cities got the wind of several blogs/vlogs, including mine, that basically embarrassed the Police Department and Sheriff's Office. Doug [...]

16: Six Degrees of Separation
The Countdown To The Resurrection You know, I do believe in 'six degrees of separation' theory.  The theory can be explained through this link.  Today, The Washington Post has an article about the research on Instant Messagers (IMs) which basically confirmed the 'six degrees of separation' theory not with 6 but 6.7.  But it is relatively still close, anyway. Basically, the [......

The Countdown To The Resurrection Condescending. That is the word that first came to me when I think of Matt Hamill. Double cheers to Amy Cohen-Efron for alerting the communities about Matt Hamill picking a hearing actor to perform as Deaf person. The result is that it sends a ripple effect to Washington and Rochester where they subsequently cancelled [...]

The Countdown To The Resurrection Many knew that I do not trust the cops. I avoid them as much as I can. Why? Because many, many, many, many cops trampled on Deaf individuals' dignity from A to Z. Of course, mainly with the communication barrier that led them to trample, dismiss, disregard, subjugate and disparage Deaf [...]

That destroyed building eventually was converted into Sam's Club as Wal-Mart moved about few hundreds yards south into a new building.  Between Wal-Mart and Sam's Club emerged another shopping center contained Target ...
