Even the ASL sign for Deaf uses the gestures for "Deaf & Dumb", a gesture to the ear and then the mouth, indicating that neither functions. It's from the initial days of ASL, when people assumed Deaf also meant unable to speak. However, no one has come up with a better sign. Not saying D&D is an acceptable way to…

Yeah, I have problems with a few things on that page as well. The Aristotle "quote" is a big one. Also is their assertion that people who have lost their hearing later (as opposed to being born deaf) are not capital-D Deaf because "although these people share the condition of not hearing, they do not have access to…

Kevin Mayer is a tool and a bad liar. They don't need to photograph anyone's tattoos. SDPD and a number of other law enforcement agencies here in SD are now using a new facial recognition tool called TACIDS - Tactical Identification System. It takes your photo and compares it to a database to find your identity. It…

I assumed she just got tired of being his beard.

The actor who plays Robin was actually 11 during the shooting of season 1. Even creepier, he'll be 14 when we next see him in season 4. Wanna bet he's still breast feeding?

The show's called Total Riff Off, and they'll be doing riffs of Man vs Monster, like the Demon Bat and Aggro Mantis Shrimp. You can see the 7 titles they'll be riffing over at the Nat Geo website here. Hopefully this means there'll be more in the future, but at least I'll be happy for a day.

Right! If they're supposed to be so different and "anti-princess" then why are they still pink and purple and pastel? Tinkertoys, Erector sets, Legos, Knex are all better at teaching all kinds of science than winding a purple ribbon through a pink gear.

But he's also this guy!

The original story "Roller Ball Murder" is definitely worth a read

You're right. A pop songwriter would use Hubble, Bubble, Toil & Trouble, if that songwriter was Manfred Mann.

It's not related to the Superbowl at all. NSHTMonth is bookended by the enacting of the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863 and of the ratification of the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery on Feb. 1, 1865.

As another commenter pointed out, they may not have irresponsible parents. The school sends out lunch account balance notices weekly (Friday? Monday?) and then attempted to reach the parents Monday & Tuesday. Perhaps some of these parents planned on bringing in the money Tuesday after school, or were waiting for…

Only if Bill Clinton gets the Mrs. Roper role.

"I am Elmer J.Fudd, millionaire. I own a mansion and a yacht."

of you could get this exact same tent (or even better) from Panther Primitives. Their Marquee tent in 12' x 18' will run you just under $2,000, add bells and whistles and come in at $2,500. That is for one seriously nice tent. http://www.pantherprimitives.com/medieval.html

You'll get better for cheaper from Panther Primitives. This is just their Marquee Tent with few of the bells & whistles. You can have it all for under $2000 at this size.

Actually a lot of their clothes come in XXL or up to 18 on their regular racks (not the plus size area). In the past I've found larger sizes of their designer stuff on the website. Don't know if they'll do it this time, but at least they're a lot better about larger sizes than a lot of places.

That must've been my high-school ex. "Dated" for 2 weeks then dropped him. He'd call me occasionally for a movie or concert & since we were still friends, I'd take him up on the offer. Turns out he was bad mouthing me to our friends as a gold digger since "I only called him on payday". You know, all those times he…
