| FTBL The Good, The Bad and The Ugly vs. Mizzou

[JoseyWalesTheOutlaw]

I watched the Bama vs Mizzou game again yesterday. On the penalty play where Bama sacked the QB and received the penalty, it was the fault of the Referee for not doing his part to protect the QB during the confusion. I am hard of hearing, and I read lips fairly well. My take is the referee is telling his crew during their discussion "I didn't hear the whistle". That would explain him not doing his job. He just went along with what the other 3 guys were telling him and finally found his flag and dropped it.

I'm hard of hearing and i read lips well. How cool is that!

Huh?

Here is the root of me being as asshole at times.

I have great hearing. It's a bit of a curse. My self diagnosis tells me it is OCD related to listening to music; picking out a specific instrument. I can catch a conversation across a crowded bar.(Nurture, or Nature?)

I caught some detective show on TV one morning with a lady who read lips. It got me curious. So, I started wearing noise plugging earphones so see if I could. I'm not serious here. Just one of those..." I wonder if ..." Got pretty good at it.

Here's the curse.

When you read lips, you read body language. You see those facial "ticks." You recognize bullshit you really didn't want to see.

(Written words are in the same category.)

I don't think I over-analyze. It's just one of those things.

Huh?

Can hear fine but can’t understand what person is saying. It’s a frequency thing. So I read lips.

The bad thing about not hearing well......and use "lip reading"as an argumentation....
People are like"why are you staring at me". ........

Any way....went to VA at wife's insistence....did my hearing test....got these big fancy hearing aids....can answer phone with...talk on phone with ( walk around grocery store talking n people think u are crazy) .... wore for a few days...and realized...
Didnt wanna hear all stuff that i could once again hear...

I was just saying huh, like I couldn’t hear you. That’s the conversation between my dad and my uncle. They say huh, at least 50 times per convo…..

What you just said is true. When I read lips, I look at body language and how they speak. I can tell when someone is angry, annoyed by the way their body is positioned. Everyone has a telltale and you can't hide it. I can read lips up to ? Maybe 15, 20 ft.. I know what's being said. I can tell you what coaches are saying on sideline if I'm at the game in person. I'll never forget one time when my wife and I were eating dinner somewhere and I was reading the couples lips and I told my wife they were arguing about the wife not making time for herself and he said he would leave her at the restaurant by herself. My wife didn't believe me and I asked our waiter to check on the lady after the husband leave, which was ten minutes later. Turns out I was right. The waitress and my wife was speechless.

I got a story on this one as well...

When I was in the hospital in the mid 80's I was reading a book, biography, from a former ST guy. He spoke of knowing the number of steps between everything. (You saw it in MI movies.) It caught my attention until I noticed "how" the nurses and doctors were walking. (17 yr old kid in the hospital for 30+ days, dealing with GBS, ... the mind goes places.)

I am trying to figure out what was going on. It was a lab to watch reactions. Think about a kid, watching his doc talking to the nurses about him...but he's out of ear shot. It was day 8, maybe 9, when I was watching and saw...told my mom, "they are going to start sticking things up my ass." Two minutes later: "GI series."

There is a TV series that came on several years ago. It's Don't Lie to Me, I think. Maybe Lie to Me. It wasn't a great show. It did hit "home" with me a bit. Lip reading, body language...they PALE when it comes to facial "ticks." (that might be body language.)

@It Takes Eleven that's how I get into more than a dozen conversations in a bar where I know, no one.

As long it's not the type you're stuck with it for life.

Memory is a wonderful thing

Actually, remember it from this am…

Gotta step on me. I've been looking for sunglasses for four hours...that I was wearing four hours ago.

Now, context.

He took them in the mud room and put them in one of my outdoor shoes.

I do not get this dog; yet. I understand the motivation. I don't know how to control it; yet.

I got some Christmas lights that operate off of a USB plug. I had to find one. I looked around for a bit, found one on the hall closet, and took it back to the shop to test the lights.

Just like that? It was gone. Where did I find it? Next to a hallway closet door; the one I found it in.
