The Talk2 List This must look like a disease or something!
Now I've seen everything! Check this out. Braille tattoos for the blind Posted: Oct 22nd 2007 10:01AM by Rigel Gregg Filed under: General Health, Health and Technology Tattoos are an artistic expression of individuality, style, and art, and have (until now) only been appreciated by those with the gift of sight. But now, through the efforts of a student at The University of Arts Berlin, you can also make a statement that can be felt and appreciated by the blind. By having a series of small beads or a small plate embossed with text (made of stainless steel, titanium, or plastic) implanted under the skin you can have an expressive work of art that can be appreciated through both sight and touch. It's braille for your skin! http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/braille-tattoo-blind Would you do it? I'm thinking with color maybe, but without it just looks like an organized group of zits.

I just have to say that although most know that Amy does do yoga, the chances of me ever standing on my head, and choking out anything, are slim to none! That is in response to the beginning of Patrick's message that says: On 10/22/2007, 12:34:22 PM EDT, Amy stood on her head, and choked out:... Follow your bliss, and the universe will open doors where there were only windows.

So, here was this two-year-old little person going burp all day long. Upon learning how to talk, it was only natural for him to combine the two skills, of course. -- -- Patrick Perdue (MCP, CNA) KE4DYI Greensboro, NC website: http://www.pdaudio.net home: +1(336)698-4417 Mobile phone and SMS: +1(336)509-5583 e-mail and .net messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] aim: noaptiva This message originally sent in reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Monday, October 22, 2007 at 3:55 PM EST.

Re: The Talk2 List more oddness!
impaired people would argue that a line doesn't exist, hence making it necessary for such things like Braille Play Boy center folds and things like that, but to me, it seems that it makes you stand out even more, and on the center fold thing, honestly guys, you can do better than that!

The Talk2 List Tonight on the John Zone
I'm taking the lazy way out here and just copying a majority of this from my LiveJournal, with some added in updatifications of course. For those who don't remember there was an old children's oriented station here in the states in the mid 1990's called Radio AAHS. It was quite literally the precursor to radio Disney. But unlike Disney, there was a real variety of music and personality on the network. It was probably the most diverse terrestrial radio station I've ever come across. But anyhows, in their prime, they released a ten-track compilation every month in a subscription which included their short-lived magazine, and I just happened to track down a few of these discs last week. So far only one has arrived, but there are several gems on it which I shall play. Hopefully at least one more can flop into my mailbox today so there can be even more randomness. But if not, I can make do with what I have. I owe Radio AAHS for a lot of things. They introduced me to Scatman John. They played tracks off of the Ren and Stimpy and Animaniacs CD's I didn't know existed back then, and, perhaps most importantly, they inspired me to make stupid home recordings of my own ficticious radio show which led to my interest in webcasting when I growed up. Since this was a kids' oriented station, the format involved many different contests all over the place. It was very enticing and promoted a lot of interaction with its listeners, myself included. I did have enough time to find one very well-preserved isolation of a certain Clower winning a contest circa October 20, 1995. But because it was not this Clower, it will not be played tonight. To make up for this, there will be a lovely isolatable recording of yours truly engaging in a mock game show with my cousin (who incidentally performed the roles of all three contestants), as well as a few songs sung blue at my church this past Sunday, gazing at my window. (If anyone even got that reference, you win a cookie! I'm sure one day I'll look back and regret playing these little clips from my days of yor, but for now I have no problem with archived humiliation. So tune in to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg with your media player of choice and laugh at my shamelessness. You can hear my bizarre ramblings every Tuesday from 6 to 9PM Eastern Daylight Time, 5 to 8PM Central daylight Time, 2 to 5PM Alaska Standard Time, 11AM to 2PM Samoa Standard Time, and on Wednesdays from 11AM to 2PM New Zealand daylight Time and noon to 3PM Line Island Time. Suffice it to say this show will be bloated with content this week.
