-- a new movie pretty much ignores a deaf person
"On Any Sunday" is a new movie that features top
motorcross racers. One of the racers in that
movie was a deaf racer, Ashley Fiolek, a past
world champion. This movie, unfortunately,
pretty much ignores her, giving her only a short
part. Fiolek, by the way, is pretty much retired,
despite her youthful age. She said she would race
again, but has not raced in two years.
-- A big imaginary race coming up
In San Francisco, there are pizza fans that have
been talking about an imaginary race among mobile
pizza trucks. It is not a real race. Anyway, the
deaf-owned pizzeria - Mozzeria, was mentioned in
this imaginary race, competing against Casey's
Pizza and Del Popolo. Would Mozzeria win?
No, but it has nothing to do with the pizza
quality but with the vehicles. The Mozzeria is a
slower cable car whereas others are "faster" trucks!
-- The Election Day mess, continued!
DeafDigest mentioned that the Corpus Christi Deaf
Center had to clean up the Election Day posters
mess, but did not know why. It was learned that
this Deaf Center was the polling place for the
neighborhood voters. Since this center was paid
to serve as the polling place, the employees
are "obligated" to clean up the mess, whether
they like it or not!
