Anybody Here Live in or Near Dallas Texas?

RE: Anybody Here Live in or Near Dallas Texas?
Rhonda- can you order a phone with an extra amplifier or speaker on amazon overnight? That might reduce the need for a hearing aid for that particular purpose and is likely cheaper?

I wish, but no. I am profoundly deaf. A fire truck could drive by and I would not hear it. Perhaps you could understand the science of why it is I can hear sound through my fingers. If I touch a speakers I can hear music, but it will be my fingers hearing, not my ears.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I don't know these guys, but here is a Dallas based atheist group.

This is Austin, but maybe someone here can help you. These guys have been atheist activists for decades.

Good to see so many people standing up to help in any way possible.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Wouldn't be too impressed if I were you. As an atheist, even the slightest efforts demand some sort of reciprocity. I'm going to ask Rhonda to ghost-write a pornographic bestseller for me. Don't mention it yet, though. It's not time.

According to Walk Score, the Downtown area requires the least need for a car. Apparently the website rated neighborhoods within the area according to walkability, ease of access to public transportation, number of bike paths, etc. It also features homes and apartment complexes in each neighborhood, with pricing and pics.

Click on Nearby Apartments. The available listings are on the left. The most affordable one I saw (I only scrolled through the first 20 or so) was a one bedroom apartment around $610.

Hit me up if you me need me, Rhonda. After I get off from work, I go NOWHERE.
I'd be more than happy to help.

Gee, it says No Apartments found. I will try again later. If they had more than 20, they couldn't have rented them all out over night. So maybe I'll do better later in the day.

BTW, I did hear from the guy in Chicago. The woman here told him she is still working on her car and will let him know.

I wish I could pray. Even if no one answers, at least I could psyche myself into thinking that I'm doing something besides sitting here. Knowamsane?
