I have a dumb question - - - - what makes a NY bagel so great??? I would think it is just bread dough formed in a circle....like I get at Albertson's or Safeway or Ralph's.

Also to YOU: Fead the whole thread. Do not jump in in the middle of a thread:
You will experience the bad side effects of Xanax, when you try to stop the intake of Xanax. Honestly, don't you notice that you are increasing the dosage on your own?
It is not a sleeping pill, it is an anxiolytic, it is supposed to lessen anxiety.
What are you so anxious about?
Try not to take it this evening, you'll see that you cannot or don't want to.
It is a highly addictive drug.
Another addicted person?
Read the whole thread, not Fead the whole thread, ..oops!..nm

Scrapple and eggs, hashbrowns, muffins, bagels and toast.
Yum!
THANK YOU for bringing that to my attention
I totally agree, and I signed the petition. I wish they would pass a similar bill about childbirth. Some women can only stay in the hospital 24 hours after their child is born (or it may be 24 hours total, I'm not sure). Or at least that's all their insurance will pay for, if it is a healthy birth with no complications.
I am currently fighting with my HMO about a medication that I desperately need. At the moment I am buying it through a "Canadian pharmacy" (based in New York state) and it is sent to me from Mumbai, India. In the U.S., the medication costs $10.00 a pill!!! Through this pharmacy, I get it for $1.77 a pill. But it is still more than twice what my normal co-pay would be if the $#@%#$ HMO would cover it.
So any kind of insurance reform bills that ANYONE knows about, PLEASE pass the info along. Thanks!
how about bringing someone into your home
a few hours maybe 3 days a week? You could canvass local daycares and find someone who has toys and resources to come in and work with your son. They can encourage good behavior with a reward system (have you tried a reward system instead of a punishment system?) It really sounds as though your son is understimulated in addition to wanting to run things and needing the right kind of attention (I don't say this to offend you...but you may not be meeting his needs with being so overwhelmed and things have just gotten into a rut). I had to work every Saturday for 2 months recently and I got a daycare worker my daughter loves to come spend a few hours of one-on-one time. I got my work done, my daughter felt special, the cost was minimal compared to what I earned, and the sitter loved coming. It was a win-win situation.
It is unrealistic to think you can strip your house of everything you need and want to live with. If what you are doing now is not working, you need to do something different. I hope you get some creative ideas.
Bringing your kids to see their granddad sm
My perspective: I had an uncle who was severely ill several years ago. His sons lived in different parts of the country and when he was well enough, they flew him in to visit. I could not see him so often, so I decided to write little notes to him from time to time. Talked about some funny things that he had done and how much they made me laugh. When he was gone, my aunt told me how much those trips and the notes meant to him, it was like a gift that he and the family got to experience before he was gone, a chance to say good-bye, that many people don't get.
My prayers are with you and your family.
Depends on who's bringing the desserts.
In my family some of us are cooks and some aren't. So it depends on who brings what. If it's easier for the person to buy a pie than make it, that's fine. If I'm bringing dessert, I usually make the pies. I have a sister who does not cook, so she always buys them. BUT she buys really good ones from local pie shop. For the first time, this year my 12 yo niece has been put in charge of dessert for Thanksgiving, with my SIL overseeing it. She's learning to cook and bake and even called me to ask for one of my dessert recipes that she really likes. I'm very pleased she's trying and don't really care what she makes, it's the thought.
P.S. I do have a pumpkin pie stashed here at the house for later tomorrow night though!

Rules about bringing medication to
school are there for a reason. She knew she was not supposed to do it as all of that is explained EVERY school year. In our schools, medications (even aspirin) is kept in the office with a note from a doctor (whether rx or not) and they dispense it.
What doctor does my DH need to see: Bringing up post
from below. I was unable to answer until today.
Those are good suggestions, but it can't be CO2 as it happens when he's standing in his garage too. He doesn't get a headache, just the eye problem. He had his INR check/doctor appointment yesterday and told him about it again.
Finally, an answer....sort of! Can't be low blood pressure because of the Toprol. Can't be blood too thick because he's on Coumadin. If DH wants, doc will make an appointment for the specialist (supposedly one of the best in the country) for a look-see and maybe some sort of laser treatment. It has to do with fluid build-up behind the eye that puts pressure on the nerves or something like that. It's harmless, so he says.
I don't like it and wish he would get it checked out, but we're still waiting for his first check of the year. So, he's going to hold off.
He's also supposed to be bringing his young little
girlfriend on the show... This is on film forever and ever for the kids to get to re-live their father leaving the family for a new hot young thing. How lovely for the kids.
And to those who say, 'but Kate is a hard-@$$...' he knew how she was before he married her, and he certainly knew how she was before the last batch of kids. He made that bed & now he's abandoning it for a newer younger bed. What a great guy....
Bringing my issue with grandparents and cousins to the top
I am sorry, I got myself out of town for the weekend to get away. I am still at a loss. I have tried contacting my grandparents numerous times to no avail. I emailed my sister, and she talked to my grandmother who said she has simply "missed my calls." Thank you all for letting me vent Friday and giving me opinions. I will not stoop to their level. Also, to the poster who asked why I think the baby's name had to do with it, it is because she kept saying, "Figure it out, Daddy's girl" and because when I asked if that was it, she said, "What baby, did I say something about a baby" and "aren't you a little Einstein."
Thanks again all!
Giving up and bringing him to your bed was your biggest mistake -
You are teaching him that you are going to give in to him if he whines a bit. If you will just consistently hold out and not go to him, he will stop it in a few days. I just went through this with my new pekingese. She took about 2 weeks of crate training before she quit whining. I never gave in to her for whatever reason and even if it was time to take her out, I never got her out until she was completely quiet. Now, all I do is tap the box when it is time to go in and she usually goes in completely on her own and she never cries anymore.
In Europe, bringing pets into stores is quite common and has been

Go for the classics, like Bringing up Baby or Philadelphia Story.
How about Blazing Saddles, Life of Brian, A Fish Called Wanda, or My Cousin Vinny?
She is a 68-year-old ROCK STAR, still bringing down the house. 'Nuff said. nm

Bringing Lost discussion up to top of board (major spoiler alert)
Okay, all you "Lost" fanatics, what are your theories now, and how have they changed? Who or what is Jacob? How did the "original inhabitants" of the island get there? They are mostly Caucasians with American accents, with a few exceptions. They don't look like the usual types of people who are native inhabitants of Polynesian islands - if, indeed, that is where the island is.
Why were Jack and Juliet keeping secrets from the rest of the group? If they had been honest and up front from the beginning about Juliet, maybe they could have all figured out a way to foil Ben's plans without bloodshed.
And will the island heal Locke? Obviously he is of major importance - I don't think Ben heard Jacob at all, and he was jealous and afraid when he realized Locke heard him. That's why he shot him. Ben is turning out to be an even bigger weasel than before.
And what exactly was the Dharma Initiative studying? Does Ben really know? After all, he was only a "work man" like his father.
For every answer, there are a dozen new questions - at least! 
What a fun thread!

well, there is another thread concerning AI--sm
up above that seems far more abrasive and negative, to me anyway. Guess I just don't get it.
There is a thread further down about this.

Thread stopped. (SM)
We're not going to fight over religion or Christmas or Santa or Christ on this board.

On another thread on this board....
someone made the comment about giving girls a false sense of security and not getting PAPs and physicals because they got the vaccine. That was something I hadn't thought about previously.
I was talking about this with a friend of mine and we got on the subject of DES that was given to prevent miscarriages and preterm labor in the 50s and 60s and the side effects that came from it. I googled DES and the one website has a copy of an old ad that states "recommended for routine prophylaxis in ALL pregnancies" with a picture of a smiling baby above the statement. We all know how that turned out!
States have made all kinds of vaccines mandatory for admittance to kindergarten, but there are ways around it, such a religious exemption. I have another friend whose kids have had NONE of their childhood immunizations. I'm not saying I agree with anything that drastic, but her kids are in school.
it was? I see the thread below...admin says
The administrator just the other day (somewhere below in the threads) said we can talk about anything here except *MT work, politics or religion* and said *anything else is fine* in subject line or name line.
I'm not the one who started the thread but
I posted a reply on another thread about infidelity. I told the poster that what she was doing was wrong, to take a cold shower and pray about what was doing.
Regina (yeah, she uses her name in her entire email address) emailed me about how wrong I was, don't have a conscience, and stuff.
I saw her name here on this thread.
I'm just telling her to STOP EMAILING ME.
This thread or the shedding?!
LOL!
This will start a thread about who does not like her
but I was reminded when I saw your post about seeing Sylvia Browne in person 1 time. She said if someone toxic, no matter who they were, your own son, you should exclude them. I truly believe this to be the case.
right now, that former thread is on page 2

Confessions thread....
I think i'm depressed.
Downer thread
This happened outside the movie theater we went to on yesterday.
The guy tied a rope around his neck and the other end around a pole.
I have never heard of anyone doing it that way!

What happened to just doing it in your garage?
As I posted in another thread,
I just love old cars, especially ones that are funny, unusual, or just pretty. I don't care about engines - I am a girl - so it's all about looks, and a little about the funny old-fashioned sounds they made. But still - cars! So while I would be happy to collect little toy/model cars, I have had to control the urge because I'm supposed to want to collect pretty dishes and glasswear or teapots or something, and none of that stuff interests me. I don't care what it's worth if it doesn't capture my imagination.
I do sort of collect books on gardening though, and they must have many, many color pictures.
Regarding prayer thread below (sm)
For those who responded about it being wrong to pray and that they were going to know have to have a Bible beside their Dorland's....how closed minded are you? We have freedom of religion in this country - should we take away our freedoms now? If two people of any religion want to pray in this country they are free to do so as long as it does not impose their beliefs on anyone else. Asking a Transcriptionist to type "we prayed" is asking him or her to document the happenings during the office visit just like everything else is documented. I am sure the doctor already knew of the patient's religion and they were both of the same religion - the doctor did not impose anything on this patient. I believe everyone is free to worship or not worship as their own beliefs dictate....you cannot take away that right - this is America - right now we still have freedoms here that many countries don't have the luxury of having....please don't try to take our rights away!! I would gladly transcribe any report mentioning any religion if that is what the doctor dictated because being fair and having freedom means that we don't judge anyone's religion, whether we believe they are right or not. If you are not religious, that is also your choice. I recently typed a chart where a woman was using the alignment of the stars to determine the best time for her to have surgery....I typed it like the doctor said it, because that is my job, and I did not judge her, because that is not my right.
seems that is why they are all here on this tired old thread.
it's come here or turn on each other !!
NOW THERE'S A VISUAL. LOL
Let's start a why do they thread!
Why do they make spice jar openings to small for a measuring spoon?
Why to they pkg 8 hot dogs and then pkg 6 buns? you never catch up!
Why does yellow mustard opening plug up and when you shake it, it squirts yellow oil?
Why do credit card cos send blank checks through the mail, forcing you to open all of it?
okay next?
You came in late on this thread so I
do not expect you to understand what was said. The person said they had no work at her full time job but sitting waiting on it? Then there was a part time job and finally full time school. Well, duh, why starve to "wait on work to show up" or stay full time in school when you can put together 2, 3 or 4 jobs and then there is full time pay.
Then why did you post on this thread below?
Why not just ignore the post? Most folks were just talking about what the OP asked about, and not really bringing politics or attacks into the thread. You incited an attack typical of ones on the politics board, which is exactly why many don't go there. For a lot of people, tomorrow is about more than politics for a variety of reasons.
The thread about the inauguration??

This whole thread is uncalled for
and you are no better than the ESLs. In fact, they are doctors and you are just an MT.
I posted in your thread below too, but
you need to get to a lawyer NOW (they will set up a payment plan, don't worry about that right now. If not, they will refer you to someone who can help you cheaper or free. Just GO.), and you need to file for divorce first. And you need to STAY PUT in the house with your kids. They'll make him leave, not you. He's freakin' nuts. You're married. It doesn't matter if your name is on the house or not, it's half yours. I've been where you are.... prepare yourself & be proactive.
See the thread below about businesses that are and aren't

They moved your thread and not my answer
I think it is Vanessa Carlton. Can't remember the name of the song now.
Because the rest of the thread was compromised & only the OP

From reading the whole thread, I now feel
very sorry for you and your family. I wish you had posted all your thoughts at the start. You are honestly one of the lone MTs who work at home for - no reason other than to stay away from coworkers, really is the sum of your logic. You obviously feel children are worthless burdens, along with housework of any sort, or caring for your family. So go out and earn the big $$ - guess you couldn't hack competing with the men in the corporate world. Obviously. Seems a pity, as you get to sit at home and hate everything related to home and family, while other poor humans drag their tired selves out the door every morning to earn a living, counting the minutes until they can return home, exhausted, and catch a minute or 2 of their kids and family life before passing out from exhaustion. Such is life...
LOL You think the person who started the thread
LOL
I'm so glad you started this thread
As I'm off today and can look up my comfort stuff and share and I know you'll like this one:
In C.S. Lewis's novel "Til We Have Faces," a character on the verge of meeting the "god of the Mountain" reasons bluntly with another, "Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home?
For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back." Elsewhere Lewis reasons similarly, "At present we are on the outside of the world, the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of the morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure.
We cannot mingle with the splendours we see.
In the distance between what we see now and what we shall ONE DAY see is the longing that reminds us of home.
Some day, God willing, WE SHALL GET IN!
answer to your query is in this very thread....
Ahhh yes. I just posted in the thread below actually
about my experience freshman year of college. I went off to college, my boyfriend from the spring/summer went off to a different college (me to Illinois, him to USC!). Didn't take long before he bought a motorcycle, snuck back to Illinois on it, dropped out of USC, starting going to another school only an hour from me. One thing led to another, we kept traveling back and forth between our two schools and barely went to class, I had the experience I posted about below, and ended up leaving school. Twenty-eight years later, we have been married for 24 years but have big, big, big regrets about how we handled college. Boy, it would have been so much better to have not had that attachment when going off to school. This is the time to explore all opportunities, so I would say a broken heart right now is probably the better choice. It will heal, new opportunities will come along. If the relationship is meant to be, they will find their way back to one another down the road, but they both need to realize the importance of college and not let anything come in the way of that.
did you read the thread below "I feel bad for him too but (sm)" by OP nm
nm
Here here! Great thread Luv to Laugh! Thanks!
 
The OP stated below in the thread that started this whole
conversation that he says he has told her "everything" he knows. If that's the case, then why not tell her about his education. She loves him, for Pete's sake. He does sound like a wonderful man. I just don't understand the secretiveness. It's not like she is a casual acquaintance. This is the person he has chosen to spend his life with, so why not share his life with her. My husband didn't even finish high school but he didn't mind sharing it with me. Maybe we're just strange, but that's the way it is at our house (been married almost 30 years).
