Thank you, NAD for your nice email with the Valentine discount to join NAD member but first I need to make sure if you or any NAD officers already know who are the currently US Senators and US House Representatives involved in CHHC Comittee after the 2006 election votes?

Why No CC on my vlog & AGBAD supports Hillary's NO CC?

I respectfully disagreed with AGBAD's member, Richard Roehm "The Deafie Orange Blog" because Richard Roehm wants to make other hearing people to look down on some of us who grew up from Deaf Oral education with no good english grammars subtitled on some of our vlogs. Seems Roehm wants other people to LOOK DOWN on some of us??? I do NOT make money from my vlog and subtitle!

I want to thank Deaf Political Junkie's blog called "Why This Deaf Woman Supports Obama" somewhere on the way down below Deafread. AGBAD seems bribed Hillary Clinton not to have closed captioned from her website!!!???? Of course, AGBAD donated a lot of money to support Hillary Clinton for no closed captioned on her own website!

About State Commission for the Deaf from this link: http://www.idhhc.state.il.us/stateLocal/State_Commissions.html Wonder if there is America or US Commission for the Deaf/HH in Washington DC for us all Federal Taxpayers?? We need to catch up the legislations from the US Capital Hill closely... Just give my thoughts.

St. Louis weather advisory until 6 am on Tuesday (tmw). Today: Scattered flurries and snow showers. Some sleet may mix in. High 23F. Winds ESE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 50%. Snowfall around one inch.

Trust AgBAD's Lobbists at the US Capitol Hill???

Hello Everyone!

First thanks to Jay's vlog called "Take a Peek (look) at AgBAD's Tax Returns" on somewhere on DeafRead...

We, the Deaf taxpayers and Registered Voters should know that AgBAD do have their own lobbists to pull the US Goverment (US Senators and US Congressmen and US Congresswomen) in the US Capitol Hill to pull more attention by AgBAD's $232,505.00 expenses by oppressing us, the Deaf that we are "Hearing Impaired"!!!!!!! Does that means that AgBAD do have rights to tell the US Senators and US Congressmen and US Congresswomen that we are not Deaf but we are "Hearing Impaired"????? Get lost, AgBAD !!! Volta building is located in DC area (close to the US Capitol Hill or White House)???? AgBAD is wasting our Deaf Taxpayers!!!!


You can find on page 25 for your own eyes with real proof from this link: http://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2005/530/196/2005-530196644-02b8e353-9.pdf

What's the point for the AGBAD and other Deaf complain about Deaf Joke from Bob House while the Hearing Culture did enjoyed their own joke from Amp: Jump Start on the 4th quarter commercial!!!! Get Lost, AGBell = AgBAD !!!

Thank you, Patty Durr and Ridor for wanting my second attempt from my artwork picture called "Vistors Plans" from Deaf Catholic Oral School on down below:





This down below picture explained about "Born Deaf Shawn (me) from hearing parents VS Not Born Deaf Laughing Mike from hearing parents too! Think about it too!!!!:

"Visitors" Artwork (for Hearing Parents & Professionals Better Understand) at any Deaf Oral Schools????

This video of my artwork (very simple to understand without using subtitles) be helpful????

Education for all Parents of Deaf children need to understand why we HATE VISITORS!Wondering if that "Visitors" artwork will be more helpful for some (not all) "Depressing or mixed emotional" CODAs to understand from their Deaf parents who were educated from Oral Deaf Education?

I feel that any Deaf Artists need to make more creative more better in "Visitors" than my artwork because I have not painting since Sept. 2003!!! YIKES!!! I have not been working on my old hobby for so long time. My artwork about "Visitors" at Orally Saint Joseph Institute for the Deaf was made in Sept 2003 may not be good enuff education??

Would that kind of "Visitors" artwork be more helpful for all hearing parents and professionals to understand why the teachers and staff are treating us, God's lovely Deaf children like animals? How come I do NOT EARN money from the "Visitors" to help my Middle Class War parents to save their money by enrolling very expensive Oral Deaf Catholic School while that school do NOT PROVIDE Bilingual or English As 2nd Language! Enuff said!

Need More Empower Deaf Marketing on Superbowl Ads????

Hmmmm, interesting that Deaf Old Guard seems doesn’t have good sense of humor!!!!??? How VERY sad!!!!????

Hey Deaf Old Guard???? Got another job for you!!!! Maybe you need to understand that every year, Super Bowl ads always show humor and funny with hearing actors/actresses in it. Not that serious, just jokes…same with deaf actors in new Super Bowl ad. Just once for Super Bowl tv…not everyday. Got it, Deaf Old Guard? Maybe the Deaf Old Guard need to take sense of humor medicine???? Why can't the Deaf Old Guard need focus to help T-Mobile Company or other Pager so we, the Deaf will enjoy more Deaf actors in thier own Pagers ads to help more EMPOWER the Deaf Marketings!!!??? Just throw my 2 cents thoughts!!!!

Sincerely yours, A Deaf Water Fan

I Support Education Needs for the Mutes!

Sorry that I am not in the mood to make subtitling today video because it will gulped my time and I need to enjoy my day before go work. And also I need to apologize for my yesterday subtitle video that I didn't give my info about my researching the SJI History since I already know that St. Louis was French and Spanish before it was American : http://www.sandiehearealestate.com/resource_pages/buyers_st_louis_missouri2870.asp

History of St. Joseph Inst. for the Deaf Mutes Research

(View on less than 3 minutes subtitling video)

SJI was educated in Sign Language in St. Louis from 1837 to 1934. 97 years of Sign Language Education for the Deaf!
SJI is not diversity educate by using only oralism for about 73 years to now.

Hello Tar! Thank you so much for your wonderful educating me with subtitling. I enjoyed experiement after I downloaded to save my first part of video then have that first video part to be made in Double Up Speed from my Windows Movie Maker. It works well with my other part of my 2nd video to research on my way to the French Revolutionary War. Just wondering how Deaf people survived in French Revolutionary War. Gotta go grab my sleeping hours before go work.

Hope you will have a very Happy Martin Luther King's Dreaming Day!

Who "ATTACK" FIRST in History ???? Hearing or Deaf ????

Don't know if the Deaf Piano Man, an understanding person or close mind or what? I was a former "Deaf Oral Militant" since age 3 yrs old! So I decided use that video because I feel that the Oral Deaf Education do NOT really provide equal education for all of us who got frustrated NOT understanding English. Of course, most of the time hearing oral educators were fed up with us when we do not have good english skills while we are Deaf Oral students. They do not respect and do not want to teach us! They, the hearing oral deaf educators prefered to teach few other students who were excelled in English and also they come from higher income family. They do not want to teach some of us because we come from Middle Class "working parents" and poor income family! Let you know that there are a lot of former Oral Deaf students now depended on welfare income because there are still a lot of oppressed on our no good english. Thanks!





Something went wrong with the Nazi in RNId statement while we the Deaf people do still have problems NOT understanding English about removing Deaf genes!

So I got info for the USA Deaf/HH Registered Voters about one hearing "Religious" candidate who wants to keep it legal to kill deaf people in the womb from this video tube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ze62cyx01Ik

Deaf Mainstream Meet The Parents about JrNAD?

WAKE UP NAD!!! Don't avoid this serious matter issues!!! Don't WASTE our time!!!

My response for Adain Mack and a special Guest Vlogger, Liza Offreda. I don't know if my feedbacks are good enuff because I grow up in Deaf Oral Catholic school from age up to 8th grade and myself alone at hearing Co-ed Catholic High School in my lifetime. Sorry that I do not have expereience in mainstream public school with other Deaf students. Just want to give my feedbacks of how the Deaf mainstream students meet their parents at home. Good luck with your briefing chat with other Deaf students outside of school campus or possible you will have a free time with only brief chat with mainstream students at lunch break time. This is America and you have a right to have freedom of speech (or expression). Why punish the students with free time at lunch break and after school??

What happen and what's WRONG with NAD with no response??!

Will pray and hope things will work out for JrNAD...

Deaf Become Slaves Again Just Like Roman Catholic Empire History?

From my own time researching on this History of Catholic Popes from this link: http://bessel.org/popes.htm

The problem is that I do not see where is Pope Felix V who was already a Married Man from his Papacy Year (1439 - 1449) on this original List of Popes' link: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm . Can you see the number 208th and 209th Pope??? Why was Pope Felix V not on the List of Popes?

About the priests wives were thrown off to the slaves, go read down on 7th to around 14th paragraphs on this link: http://www.heretication.info/_slavery.html

Wondering if we Deaf still have to be slaves for the Hearing People by forcing us, the Deaf to become "hearing minds" and force us to use English Sign Language (forbid using our natural ASL)?? Just wondering if we, Deaf have to be suffer SLAVES from Hearing People again by covering up our Deaf Culture and history just like Roman Catholic tried to cover up their own messed up Roman Catholic Empire history????

My Video Msg for Honorable Prez SDAD and Officers!

This video clip will go this SDAD's contact link: http://www.sdad.org/board.aspx






Dear Honorable President of SDAD and SDAD Officers,

I feel that both Aidan Mack and Jack's eyes did gave us very appropriately information. Let me try to express my feelings to you.. Hope that you, the SDAD officers do not mind to go ahead make appt to talk with CSD to find a way to remove our guilty from using our pagers and paying monthly services to support the Cochlear Implants Fundings Only now these days. It will not hurt you all, SDAD Officers to go make appointment with the CSD's Headquarter. SDAD is very nearby the CSD's headquarter??? Me Right or Wrong???? Hope that SDAD and CSD will NOT GIVE UP to find a way stop the bill and have it expired, nulled and voided. Are there any possible way to have more than 80 percents to support ASL/Global International Sign Language Program Fundings from our pager monthly services???

Good luck with your success! Thank you all, SDAD Officers for your own time reading and watching my vlog. I need to go out of town as soon as possible from the BIG 4 Powerful Oral Deaf Schools here in the state of Missouri.... Bye... Shawn

Why CSD NOT WARN US to WATCH OUT for Legisltors?

For a rush (in a hurry) viewers or double doses of coffee users veiw on this video clip:



This video for relaxing and taking own time ASL viewers on this video clip:



I want to thank Jack's Eye's ASL TV video link: http://www.deafvideo.tv/watch/4292

Also thanks to Aidan Mack's ASL vlog link: http://deaffilmblog.blogspot.com/2007/11/telecommunication-relay-service-funds.html

FYI: I did watch this SDAD President's recently message on this vlog link: http://www.sdad.org/


To my question for SDAD President: Why we, the Deaf NOT BEING WARN to WATCH OUT the legislators??? We, the DEAF do have a RIGHT to know about this before the legislators passed the law!!! Can this bill nulled, expired or void???? We need to see this bill support ASL/ Global International Sign Language Programs, also to prevent the early language development delayed for our future Deaf children's education rights!

Thanks so much for your cooperated if you are willing to accept DEAF South Dakota, Frank Turk's FAMOUS QUOTE: T.E.A.M. (Together Everyone Achieve More).

For my video comments to those commenters on down below, pls view this video:
(Canceled) due to one of the commenters who do not even bother to warn us first before he blow the horns to the legislators!
