More like quiet commenter, an advocate for ASL for families of deaf children, sometimes to inform deaf compatriots about issues they need to speak up on. Occasionally a bit of humor.

Working, seeing my teenagers through college, taking panorama photographs and creating wide format pictures.

I try to hit the "yeah!" spot in readers and explore the common themes that inspire, excite or concern everybody.
