A puzzling irony.....

I was in an email discussion with a deaf person I know (a non-blogger/vlogger) who explained to me what he saw in some videos vlogs with the name Barry Sewell coming up. He further explained that one of the basic complaint from those vloggers is that Barry is trying to seek attention to himself in his vlogs. This was funny considering what my friend said about those vloggers who were doing the same thing by vlogging on much more frequent scale than Barry! Pretty ironic when it comes to complaining about others "seeking attention." Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black except it was done in poor fashion by actually whining to the video audience seeking their attention that Barry's videos were done to seek attention. I can only shake my head with this laughable irony. Except this time Barry wasn't doing the whining or complaining here. It was some of those vloggers. Maybe they need to take their own advice this time and not complain so much like a squealing stuck pig?

Now, I like Barry. He's a good conversationalist. He seeks to understand and learn a variety of things about life. He a natural outdoors fellow and love all things natural seen in nature. Loves horses and animals. There is something to be said for living out in the open land away from the congestion of polluted and crowded cities in favor of a more natural and spiritually enhancing place. There is nothing wrong with living in the great open spaces of America. In fact, it's one of the best places to go to seek refuge and peace for the sake of body, mind, and spirit. If you don't believe me then why do Americans take off on their vacation to go camping, visit the many great outdoors like Yellowstone Park, the forests, raft the rivers, swim in the lakes and such? If anybody is smart enough already it is to avoid the crowded cities or the rat race of city life. Like me, I seek the open spaces as well as much as possible. And I'm fortunate that I am able to experience that on a daily basis. So is Barry.

Free Translation and Captioning Service for ASL Vloggers?

Here are some interesting questions on the equal access issue of signed video bloggings if you were given the opportunity to use a free service to translate and caption (or transcript) for your ASL video blogs. Would you take it if done free so other non-signers may be able to access your ASL vlogs?
