Say, What??

I was coming home on the R train (does everything happen on the trains?) the other evening and a deaf passenger was passing out little pieces of paper with the American Sign Language Alphabet (ASL) on them. She was asking for donations.

A passenger wanted to give her a donation except the deaf passenger was on the other side of the car. The "donor" yelled out, "hey, Miss". She stopped for a moment, picked up her head and started laughing....she totally forgot the recipient of her generosity and kind deed is deaf. Well, of course who ever was sitting near by also got a good laugh.

Better than a Broadway play and we got our moneys worth, too.
