Based on the title, at first I thought she was drunk rather than blind.

Thank you for this. I thought, by the title, she was mentally impaired - ala RainMan. She seems normal except she's blind. Changes context.

I don’t know, he may forever remember the time a fan who was disabled memorized his speech, and then hugged him. It may haunt him.

They call it the Roman nose an aquiline nose for a reason. Aquiline meaning eagle-like. A lot of Brits got their noses from Roman ancestors.

As my wife says when I ask her why she prefers sub over dub. "You don't need to understand the language to hear the emotions."

You've already see the exchange. Wanting to hear it in a language you dont understand is retarded. Also universal.
