Ouch weblog: individual blog entry

14 May 07, 2:05 PM - Unabashedly disabled

Posted by Crippled Monkey

Check out yesterday's edition of the New York Times and what's this?! Disability? In the Fashion & Style section? Whatever next?

It's true, though. Check out the article entitled , which features cool cats (no, I have no idea what I'm going on about either) like stand-up comic Josh Blue, who has CP; Robert David Hall, a double amputee who plays a coroner in CSI; Kylee Haddad, a 40-year-old mother of two who decorates her prosthetic leg with palm trees, fish and the American flag; and Jillian Weise who this year published a poetry collection called The Amputee's Guide to Sex.

The message would seem to be: it's cool to be a Crip. Mind you, since you're reading Ouch, you've known that for years, right?
