O Holy Night and any Xmas song by Karen Carpenter nm

Last night Bravo had "The 100 Scariest Movies Of All Time" and number one was ...sm
Jaws!?!?! I didn't find that scary at all! The Exorcist and Audition are the scariest for me.

Happy Christmas by John Lennon
What's your favorite classic Christmas song?nm

I got chills when I read your post...
I have had a few similar events to yours, but nothing to that great extent. Next time it happens, just say hi. 
Thank you all so much. I have chills just reading your replies. I
am going to speak to the supervisor today at our mall and just make them aware of this. They have people who go around the mall all day and watch for people just hanging around. When I got home what I really thought was strange is the fact that the hospital and home they wanted to get to is specifically for the elderly, and has no ER or admission to the public. The hospital is just used for the patient's who can no longer remain in the nursing home itself. Unless they were going there to visit someone, or going for a job application they would have no business there. I know I did the right thing. I can only imagine how I would have felt having one beside me and the other in the back seat. Thank you so much. I will report this today.
Don't forget the tribute to Gershwin with Rhapsody in Blue! Josh and Andrea ...FAB. nm

Holy Cow! Thanks for posting.
OMG Cat that scares the Holy Cr*p out of me when
I was back in Arkansas one year, I slept through one! The next day they took me out to tour the damage. Holy Moly!
Holy bat guano Batman!! LOL nm

14, holy crow, what a testament to the
love and care you give him, most boxers don't get to that age!
Holy cow, how much money do you make? - sm
We pay maybe $6K a year on ours, $60K whew, you must make a ton of cash, or your husband does. Amazing. Our house will be paid off in 3.5 years on a 15 year mortgage.
Holy smokes Cat! That is just terrifying!
I have had nightmares about tornadoes since I was a kid but never ever saw one except on TV or in movies. They just scare the fecal matter right out of me! They are the main reason I won't ever leave New England. How you folks do it without going nutty is beyond me. Please be safe out there!
Holy Moly N/T last - for N/T Fans
I can't even print what I thought about Christian in this episode. Matt and Sean went a little crazy and that doesn't even include the (half sister thing). The N/T characters have gone crazy this season. LOL. What's wrong with Julia, confronting Eden alone? Next week is the season finale. Should be interesting.
Holy crap woman!
You have some big babies!! Noah 3 weeks early and still weighed 9 lbs 14 oz? Someone needs to put you up for sainthood. I bet you had a few choice words during labor.
No thanks, the Holy Bible is THE written authority to me!

Monty Python and the Holy Grail....sm
I wish I'd been back in NY to see Spamalot when it first came out on Broadway last year....we don't make that kinda money, honey.  Cat
It is the Holy Bible which includes both new and old Testaments. nm

Holy smokes!!!! Have you seen the new and improved Susan Boyle????
I almost fell off my chair in the difference.

What are people supposed to call Christmas Eve and Christmas Day now?? (nm)

"The Shack"...sm
Has anyone read this book "The Shack?" I have heard rave reviews on this book. It is said to be lifechanging. I bought this and am on the 3rd chapter.
Yes, but keep in mind ks that Christian's follow EVERY word of the Holy Bible

Holy smokes, I have thick, long brown hair
$50.00 for cut and color and my hairdresser does a wonderful job.

Is this Boliva??
"The pope's nose"
No idea where this came from, but it's what my mother always called it.
Or...take notes from Dwight from "The Office" (sm)
Dwight Schrute: Yes, I have decided to shun Andy Bernard for the next three years... which I'm looking forward to. It's an Amish technique; it's like slapping someone with silence.
Dwight Schrute: I was shunned from the age of 4 until my 6th birthday, for not saving the excess oil from a can of tuna.
SHUN THE OFFENDER!
Yeah, but I don't think "the rod" has to be an actual weapon (sm)
I think it means to teach your kids the right way to behave - you are the parent, you be the boss, the teacher, the leader.
Am reading "The Mothman Prophecies" about this

"The Cleaner" with Benjamin Bratt on A&E and
anything with Benjamin Bratt.
Does anyone remember "The Gathering" with Ed Asner? sm
We used to watch it religiously every year. I can never find it on TV anymore. Then, of course, there is "A Christmas Carol" with George C. Scott - the best Scrooge ever!
Alton Brown's "The Chewy"
I've tried all of the chewy chocolate chip recipes out there, and this is the best by far. The recipe calls for giant cookies, but for Christmas, I make them mini-sized, using about 1 heaping teaspoon of dough per cookie. They bake faster, so watch them carefully. I also add pecans to the recipe. I've made them with bittersweet chocolate chips and macadamia nuts, too, and those were INCREDIBLE.
Be sure, however, to really take your time creaming the butter and sugars. And let the melted butter cool to room temperature before mixing with the sugar. The creamed butter and sugar should be thick and fluffy and smooth, almost but not quite peanut butter consistency. If it's not, the cookies will go flop when they come out of the oven, and they don't look as pretty. They still taste great, but they aren't high and pretty.
I can't get the link to post, so here's the URL: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/the-chewy-recipe/index.html
And Thursday night is safer than Friday night - how?
We used to live in a town that was once in the Guiness Book of World Records for number of churches per capita (which by the way was the worst place I've ever lived - discourteous, Nazi schools, etc.), and they wouldn't let us trick or treat on Sundays. Ridiculous! People can say what they want but celebrating Halloween doesn't make you a devil worshiper! Just my 2 cents!
Google "The Secret" and you'll see. It's about how to get what you want out of life, bus

I just hope she and "the dressmaker" get locked up this time.
nm
I hate the phrase "the patient expired"
I have never liked that phrase...makes me think of spoiled milk or something. We don't come with expirations dates!!
Try googling "The Stewpot" SHould find a link there,

"The parents", the "older man". The welfare of child

Love his book "The Stand" - but that was a super flu - sm
that killed you quick. From what I have read most people live through the swine flu, no deaths in the U.S. as yet I believe. Probably like any flu, the very young, and very old have the most to worry about, and those immuno-compromised of course.
She may be asking about it as a form of birth control, too. Time for "the talk." 13 is NOT too
s
I think the OP's disgust was aimed mostly at "the system" in general. Picture this...
you awaken at 5:00 a.m. after only having slept 4 hours, get the children off to school, work a grueling 8 hours transcribing for incomprehenisble dictators, while in between getting the house work done and prepping dinner until you remember you have to pick up the kids and take to practice, and you need to make one last stop out of your grueling day to stop at the market and boom. You encounter what she did. Sometimes it makes you wonder why you bust your hump day in and day out, year after year, for the mere pennies this so-called profession provides while others are getting handouts. So she had a 'moment.' That's all. No more, no less. Give her a break.
"The Party" with Peter Sellers. None funnier. Not a well known movie, but hysterical. nm

Please read "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin DeBecker. It can save your life. NM

Home Alone 1, A Christmas Story, Home for the Holidays, Chevy Chase's Christmas, sm
There "The Gift of the Magi," He sells his gold watch to buy her a comb for her hair and she sells her beautiful long hair to buy him a chain for his gold watch. It used to be on "Short Stories by O'Henry" but that's long gone, long ago. Good moral to the story. I can't stand "It's a Wonderful Life" -- too depressing, especially with banks closing, too intimidating right now!!!
Yep, there's even a song about it :)
She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right
I met her there in the corner stand
And wonders where she is
And it's strange to her
Some people seem to have everything
9 am on the hour hand
And she's waiting for the bell
And she's looking real pretty
She's waiting for her clientele
She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right
Twenty-eight years have come and gone
And she's seen a lot of tears
Of the ones who come in
They really seem to need her there
It's a sacrifice working day to day
For little money just tips for pay
But it's worth it all
To hear them say that they care
She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right
Already knows, she's seen her bad times
Already knows, these are the good times
She'll never sell out, she never will
Not for a dollar bill
She works haaaaard......
Isn't there a song about that?
Something like,
"I want to check you for nits!"
Something like that. :o}

This song sez it all .......... s/m
Take a break from typing, and download the song, " We Can't Make it Here", by Larry McMurtry.
There should be a phrase in here 'bout Medical Transcription......
you mean the song(s) where the guy (sm)
loses his wife, his girlfriend, his other girlfriend, his ex-wife, his truck, his bicycle, his tractor, his dog, his cat, his lizard, his best friend, his best friend's wife, his best friend's ex-wife, his clothes AND his guitar?!? And then he gets run over by an 18-wheeler but still manages to survive and then becomes an alcoholic?!?
We must be the same age. That song SM
is truly awful and was on the radio every 10 minutes. Now it's going through my brain!!!! NO!!!!
song
If you want a lover
Ill do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
Ill wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
Im your man
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
Ill examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
Im your man
Ah, the moons too bright
The chains too tight
The beast wont go to sleep
Ive been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or Id crawl to you baby
And Id fall at your feet
And Id howl at your beauty
Like a dog in heat
And Id claw at your heart
And Id tear at your sheet
Id say please, please
Im your man
And if youve got to sleep
A moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
Ill disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand
Im your man
If you want a lover
Ill do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
Ill wear a mask for you
