Viable & Marlee Matlin

This vlog talks about the fact that I tweeted 2 full days before the announcement -- Last Monday afternoon, I tweeted that Snap!VRS bought Viable and will announce in few days. Some doubted me. But I was right after all. My sources are always dead-on. Believe it or not.

The 2nd part of the vlog talks about Marlee Matlin. Why I enjoy her works and not only that, as Deaf individual, I'm thrilled that she is one of us. As Gallaudet Alum, I'm thrilled that she is on the Board of Trustees. The more I see Marlee, the more deaf-centric she is turning out. She is someone else that Deaf communities are proud to have and we must support her all the way to the bank!

Here is the link to her cameo appearance which she took over the show to fit her needs. Amazing!

As you mentioned in your vlog that you appreciate Deaf being in control of their lives, I am one of those Deaf. I grew up in a hearing world, mainstreamed schools, etc etc, I have stood up for myself many times and never put on a pity act.

I learnt that from Mr. Bragg when I met him back in 1992 or '93. I have a story there for that ha ha. Anyways. Kudos to Marlee!

The more Deaf people do not lose their dignity by groveling towards hearies, the better we are off living on our own!

I add that there are employees bound by non-disclosure agreements and they'd do anything to keep their own job. Going off the point--why aren't you joining the Deaflympics DeafNation brass at Taipei? If not I only can guess that's because there's not enough fresh and ripe Mormon boys.

LOL! Actually, I'd love to go to Taipei but you can thank the bad economy for putting me off the dreams of attending Deaflympics in Taipei but I will force myself to plan ahead for 2013 Summer Deaflympics in Athens, Greece!

Ridor, that's an awesome vlog you've made about the SnapVRS bought Viable. Thanks for announcing to let us know. It's good to trust your friend that knows more about other sources than the company or people.

Wait a minute? Are you required to pay your way to work for DeafNation? Why didn't DeafNation utilize your services in Taipei? It's a sham if any business or organization requires media to pay their own way and in some cases admission. Several did and it backfired on them. Spectacularly. I know someone wrote about it for DeafNation only to be censored. That tells you why deaf isn't always the only one wrong =)
