It's just banter

Tone Deaf

October 14, 2024October 20, 2024 ~ Gottfried ~ 28 Comments

Thank you for shouting at me said no deaf person ever. The handicap of deafness is not in the ear; it is in the mind. Being deaf does not make you dumb, just as hearing does not make you smart. Success listens only to applause, to all else it is deaf. In every good marriage, … Continue reading Tone Deaf

I’m sure the best part about being a flight attendant is being able to look at random people and saying “Trash”.  People used to assume … Continue reading Flying Without Wings
