Its called a lifesaver because of the whole in the middle to prevent you from choking to death...
Now, why when two planes fly close together they call it a near miss, its a near crash.
Ha, actually no. I try to avoid letting my house look like white thrash. Well that, & my car is worth nowhere near 50 thou..
I just imagine that's why some people can't fit their car in the garage. I have, however, had neighbors call in other petty things. Just come over & talk to me about it, buddy?
Are you saying blind people don't have the ability to go anywhere with a purpose and simply "wander" until they come upon something to do? Perhaps it is you, sir, who should leave the cave!
On the cave line, why is the saying "blind as a bat?" I've never once had a bat fly into my window, but a bird seems to do it once a month or more.
went to the ATM this morning to get out some fun tickets (you know, for snakes and sparklers). noticed that there is braille on the numbers of the machine. seems odd seeing that it is a drive through ATM. so people are too blind to read numbers, but aren't blind enough to lose their driving privilege?
Back to the OP: This should blow your mind as well
Fewer than 10 percent of blind Americans can read Braille
Fewer than 10 percent of the 1.3 million legally blind people in the United States read Braille, and just 10 percent of blind children are learning it, according to a report to be released Thursday by the National Federation of the Blind. By comparison, at the height of its use in the 1950s, more than half the nation's blind children were learning Braille. Today Braille is considered by many to be too difficult, too outdated, a last resort.
Instead, teachers ask students to rely on audio texts, voice-recognition software or other technology.
