Was there ever a wish you guys were asked for and it couldn't be granted, hard as the foundation tried?

What happens if kids can't get their first wish, do they have a wish list or something?

If you could wish for anything, what would your wish be?

I totally agree that the people that committed these atrocities (which they completely were) should have been held accountable. I also believe anyone that followed them and allowed those policies and acts to continue should have been held accountable. BUT Saying that "they should be getting crap for not acknowledging this" is implying that people today, in 2014 should be getting crap for what happened 4-5 hundred years ago is a little ridiculous...

Camp Lejeune is also home to at least one battalion full of born and bred nerds and dorks (Marine here with their same job, just on the west coast). Mostly too smart for their own good, for that lot. But in general a lot of Marines are ridiculously intelligent. Our "rock eaters" just give the image of "hurr durr shoot stuffs".

Did you get any racial backlash about your "dead giveaway" comment?

Most people I knew took it in jest (I laughed my ass off, personally) but of course played the race card believing "if a white man said something like that he'd be a racist!"

I have a lot of hearing friends that have weird mouths that I don't know all that well so having even a little bit of sound helps.

Is this about lip-reading? I've seen people/had friends that I notice just... do something... weird... I don't know how to explain it! Their mouths just aren't making the same expressions and "most" people.

I inadvertently learned some (super simple) lip-reading through my Psych classes in college so it made me notice it more in people.

Can them having "weird mouths" indicate if they have an impediment or accent that you just can't fully hear? (I don't know how to phrase that to sound less rude, sorry!)
