A true story of an american hero's wife.

[AJBert]

In the movie, "The Right Stuff", I'm glad to see that Hollywood, for once, kept some what to the script. They didn't hide the fact that Mrs. Glen had a speech impediment.

Thats amazing. Did it say how Annie and John communicated the first 52 years? Im sure being together since infancy helps, but surely they would need to 'talk' about things...

She probably had him trained like mine does. After enough time we men respond to hand signals. Sort of like retrievers trained to move via whistles and hand signals.

[AIRret]

Wow Jocko, first you made me cry, then you made me laugh with the world peace statement. You are really talented!
But honestly, thank for sharing a wonderful true story. It's great to hear things like that when it seems the rest of the world is falling apart.

Oh, yeah, sure, Bawanna. Makes total sense. Now that you say that, my lady gives me a very specific hand signal quite often....

[jocko]

SPECK: NO ur lady is just giving u the unviersal females signal. They all know it, like hanging the flag upside down, and oh yes it is very specific.. I usually see it right before she leaves for work anbd righrt when she gets home and I ask " when is supper". I have noticed that at certain "times"in the month I tend to see the unviersal sign even more Just sayin

[SpecK]

Imagine how John feels about it...

She wasn't non-verbal, she had a stutter.

85% tho!?! Thats pretty staggering. If I couldnt get out 85 of every 100 words...I might not even try

About the same percentage as Jocko's typing and he seems to get along ok.

Kind of like that country singer Mel ???? stutters horribly when he talks but sings like no tomorrow.

I'm most definitely a Branson type although I've not been there YET. My wife wants to go there pretty bad too.
Being audio challenged, one of the things I miss most right after nagging is not being able to hear country music.

I got a ton of kin in MO, need to make a road trip. Haven't been there in 25 years.

[jocko]
