That's awesome, [MENTION=24261]Marcus[/MENTION]. Now you've got an open mind for when you meet a guy who might have some disability. We all have different abilities, so when does some aspect become a disability? It's not so black and white. You might have already met a guy with a partially amputated leg and never even known it unless he chose to tell you or you saw him take his pants off. He could wear a prosthesis that was so good you'd never even suspect it.
I'm so colorblind that sometimes I have a hard time at a traffic light if the sun is shining on it. One of the rainbow colors used on this site is invisible to me. Is this a disability? I think it is. But I don't go around saying I'm disabled.
I was once traveling in California and stopped in a bar. I met an entire basketball team of guys in the bar, every one of them in a wheelchair. They'd just got done with a game and were having a beer just like everyone else. These guys had totally jacked upper bodies from weight training and sprinting around on basketball courts using their arms to get around. They were fun to hang out with. They were living their lives to the best of their abilities. That's all any of us can do.
