Signing in MCC @ coalition for Deaf Awareness

Signing at Gold Bar Expresso

I have just posted several ASL music videos so check my activity and watch some great signing!

Going to Sign at Gold Bar

New Switched at Birth episodes are back on ABC Family. You might catch some signing on it - although the camera often cuts off the signing or the set staging blocks it...

Still not the picture I would have chosen, but better than a picture of a book. By the way, this is the one-handed ASL alphabet and numbers. (Some signed languages use two hands, ie British Sign... more

@GetGlue At least this one has signers in it but it's a book picture. Come on!

I want to kill my students.

Sign Language is not the same all over the world (nor across one country), thus the name American SL, or British SL, German SL, Japanese SL, etc.

Can't understand finger spelling !

MT @MySmartHandsMI: See The Birthing Site's article on baby sign language? Great write up on some of the benefits of signing t.co/730g9R1F

Have class tonight

Going to Northland for the sign language portion of their service.

ASL can be used by anyone regardless of the ability to hear. It comes in handy more than people think.

So I was check-in out new topics today and came across a coincidental sign. In this picture he is gesturing very much like the sign for homosexual: getglue.com/movie_stars/ricky_martin

proud of myself for actually being able to follow some of the (simple) signs on last night's Big Bang Theory.

Currently practicing for my ASL project due this week.

about to go learn colors/clothes/home. woot. haha

really should practice more, but my deaf doggie just moved away so I have no one to sign at who won't judge me on how badly I sign

Please don't presume you know signs - really you may not even know meaningful gestures. Although... it can be funny to watch someone who thinks they know sign call someone an a$$hole or worse.

Getting ready to go to class :)

To be honest, it is not always a beautiful language. People butcher it just as they do the English language.
