Ok Ok you are all beat on weird gigs

I think the current term is differently sighted.

And I think now the game is supposed to be called alternately-scaled golf.
 
Wow that is interesting. Hope all of the participants get a copy of the video so they can see how funny... oh... wait...
 
If there was a 704x480 Brailler, you could maybe output a luminance-only signal through the device and people could 'feel' the image with their hands...

Is this true?

I was having a conversation about this with a friend the other day (not blind people, but this whole PC renaming dealio). Are they actually fighting for the word blind to be replaced?
 
I've heard terms like non-sighted used with a straight face. Differently sighted is a joke, but with all the PC idiocy floating around out there I wouldn't be surprised to see it gain currency.
 
I used to be really annoyed by Political Correctness. Now it's been so blown out of proportion that I absolutely hate it.
 
Well I once fell into a urinal while shooting Bob Dole at a urology convention.
weird?
I dunno.
Prolly not as weird as the Benny Hinn stuff I use to make. Benny Hinn.. Benny Hill... very little difference.

I think the currently correct term is "visually impaired".

Of course, "Lighthouse for the Blind" hasn't completely changed their name...they just added ". . .and the Visually Impaired", so apparently it's not only 'correct', it's inaccurate.
 
Heh. Thats a weird gig alright. I've got nothing on that. :D

Stylize it like an actual PGA telecast! That would work.

Why has no one asked this yet: Why were you filming Bob Dole in the bathroom?
