-- a common fingerspelling complaint
Most people that fingerspell make sure that they correctly spell
all the letters of a word. Unfortunately there are some people
(both deaf and hearing) that would sloppily fingerspell -
some would just spell out the first letter of a word and then
the last letter - forcing us to fill in the blanks. An
example would be - "delicious" being spelled as D and then S,
forcing us to guess what word was he trying to spell!
For advice on those that don't fully fingerspell, go to:

-- big honor or no big deal
Deaf British motivational speaker Charning Peters was pictured
while driving a $660,000 Lamborghini automobile in London.
He said he is the first deaf person to drive this such
an expensive car. Big honor or no big deal? You decide!
