Yes they do. Now, Iron man was absolutely fantastic...

They need to make a better Daredevil movie with somebody else
playing the role of Matt Murdock/Daredevil.

Magnets on teeth? That's...fantastic!!

As for daredevil, well, I suppose that's what you get when Benn Aflak
pretends to be blind.

Wow. Weird!

Say, there's a book, I think it's on bookshare, called Mirror, Mirror
on
the Wall. Part of the Dear America series. I read it a long time ago, and
it's about a blind girl named Bess Brennan who goes to a school for the
blind in the 1930's. A visitor comes, and asks how the students find their

mouths when they eat. That one had me falling out of my chair howling with

laughter, but the answer one of the boys gave was even better: he said
he'd attached magnets to his teeth!

Nope, nobody asked me about the rain thing; it's in the movie
Daredevil
though. <g>

LOLOLOL! Did someone ask you that? Wow! That goes beyond
weird...that's
amazingly weird! I don't like walking in the rain either. It's
distracting.

I once had a lady come up to me out of the blue, and ask me if I
wrote
songs? Incidentally, I do, and said yes. Hymns? Were they hymns? Yes, I
had written some hymns, but how did she know all this about me? Well,
she knew about Fanny Krosby, and since Fanny Krosby was blind and wrote
songs, and I was blind too, I must write songs. LOL! I love it.

What, you mean you can't see pictures of people's faces based on
the
way the rain hits them? I'm shocked--shocked. <g>

Incidentally, rain is kinda a bit disorienting rather than being
helpful, for me anyway.

*smiles* Not a stupid question at all. This is where the line
starts
to be crossed between realism and myth. Lots of people have
misconceptions about blind people's senses, like we're supposed to be
superhuman or someething. We're not, but I can generally feel it if
someone is really focused on me. If I'm not thinking about it I don't
always, but I'm by nature very self-conscious, and maybe that's what
makes me so sensative about it. I don't know if that's universal.

This is probably a stupid question, and perhaps I can guess the
answer, but if you're blind how do you know people are staring at
you?

I
decided I don't like to be stared at; frankly, I hate it. T
