Brawny
Thank you. I saw the same commercial and thought I was being evil, or wishful thinking!!
More on Brawny
The ad shows a tall goodlooking man cleaning up the kitchen with a roll of Brawny. He doesn't say a word, but the background music is almost "seductive" and he's looking at the camera as though he's being photographed for a women's magazine rather than a paper towel commercial. When he walks out from behind the counter and is in full view, it's hard not to miss the.... package. I noticed there is a long and short version of the commercial. The short version cuts out the "package" shot.
Okay Mrs. Smarty pants.......
Administration is taking note and we are doing nothing wrong so nothing will be done! We are 2 different people - DUH!!!!!!

Go stick the Chapstick MQ gave you in your poop shoot!
peeing in my pants maybe?

the shorter the pants
Stick to your guns, mom!!!
I almost peed my pants!!

Thought I was gonna pee my pants!

oo


Actually slacks means casual pants.
I am hoping the posters meant dress pants ; ) That's what I have always worn; black dress pants with a matching jacket and a pastel colored top to break up all the black and mid-heel dress shoes. A manicure is a must and natural makeup, nothing too heavy or bright. ; )
And make sure the pants aren't 5 sizes too big! sm
I've seen so many teenaged boys go for interviews wearing khaki pants.....but khaki pants made for Fat Albert. Drives me nuts.
No, I am not the original poster, smarty-pants!
xx
I wear comfy thermal pants and tank tops. sm

see no need to look professional, feel professional, in the privacy of my home.  My work is professional, and that is what they get.


Even when I am what would be considered unkempt, I make a terrific line count.


Has anyone seen the commercial
where the snowman is eating soup at the table, and the snow melts off him, and it is a little boy?  Love that commercial. 
It it was a commercial
flight then possibly. It's also possible though that it was a private plane. My oncology practice has 4 clinics in outlying areas of the state and the husband of the CEO flies the docs around in his plane.
Hey, today's my moms 60th b-day, too. I got her a pair of khaki capri pants
with a purple print belt and a matching purple top along with some socks.  My teenage daughter gave her a homemade necklace made of light green stones and a shell that she got while on the beach in San Diego this summer.  My nephew gave her a dreamcatcher and the dog gave her some vanilla international coffee.  We took her to the Elephant Bar for lunch and gave her the gifts.  She had a great time and so did we.
lamisil commercial

I'm with you "sm", that Lamisil commercial with the toenail lifting gives me the heebie-jeebies!!  It reminds me of when you have a long fingernail and you bang it against something and it bends backwards -- you know, that really freaky feeling....that's what the Lamisil commercial does to me, ouch!


 


 


have you seen the nextel commercial?

My son laughs uncontrollably every time this commercial comes on.  So funny!

I saw a commercial last night for Tax Cut
if I am remembering correctly. If it is made by H&R block, then that is the one. It said that if you ever get audited that their representatives with help you through the process if you used that system. Seems like a good benefit to have. Maybe there is some small print to that, but worth checking into. My accountant guarantees to represent you if you get audited too.
Got commercial account
I have Comcast (simply because they're the only provider I can get here) and I had to go to a commercial account because my service kept getting interrupted and it would take them 2-3 days to do anything about it.  A commercial account is costing me $100 a month but they have to deal with any problems I have within 24 hours, so its well worth it considering the money I lost waiting for techs to come out when I was residential.  They never said anything about usage on either account though; their philosophy seems to be that anything residential is frivolous (being used for entertainment purposes) and can wait.  So my advice is to go commercial - its the only way you'll get any respect at Comcast!
I had to get a commercial account
Its more expensive, but they have to guarantee 24 hour problem solution (or at least that a tech will put me at the head of the visit list). I haven't had any grief with them now for about 6 months, and I finally have a second option now (AT&T), so at least now I can dump them if things get bad with them again.
Help. Can anyone tell me what the song is on the commercial on tv where the guy is driving across

the US to San Francisco for a cell phone commercial and he pulls up in front of his girlfriends house in SF and calls her on the cell phone and she comes to the door and there he sits in his car. It is the cell phone commercial for the cell phone with the bars on it. This is driving me nuts. I cannot remember the name of that oldie song.


 


Disgusting commercial, huh?! Hahaha
I use Brawny paper towels and Lysol Kitchen spray on counters and appliances. I use plastic scrubbies on the sink and anything I need to scrub up before the dishwasher and the put the scrubbie in the dishwasher as well. I spray Lysol on the sink and faucets before I go to bed.

I started this when I saw Oprah's show on women who horde and won't clean/throw away anything. The experts she had on the show had checked one woman's kitchen sink for bacteria and compared it to her commode and the commode was cleaner! I about fell over. I have dishcloths and dishtowels but they are washed after every single use! Ewwwwww!
That commercial makes me want to puke.

And convenient. Just like the commercial says ' Some families

Here are the best 2 non-commercial links for bariatric
www.wlsforum.org

Lots of information out there. Good luck on your research.
Yes, I would suggest using a commercial expander sm
Like ShortHand or Instant Text. They will increase your productivity tremendously.

As for the buckling down and just getting to work, well, as soon as you realize the secret to that, be sure and share it with the rest of us! If I knew the answer to that, I would not be sitting here on MTStars at 10:03 replying to your message, I would be cranking out the lines!! :)
I saw this great commercial last night in which
there were children playing and then all of a sudden one little girl started ranting on the others, saying something about awful pimples the other child has, etc... and then at the end of the commercial it said never say anything in an e mail you wouldn't say in person....It is a hard lesson but it is true. Another way my 8 year old put it: Ask yourself, is what you said something that should have stayed in your head? I ask myself this every day whether speaking or e mailing or posting, and it really helps.
(Eye roll)
Oh good grief!  What's the big deal?  Act like the professional you are and just transcribe the dang thing; then go on to the next dictation!  Don't make a mountain out of a molehill.  I transcribe for Hollywood celebrities all the time; if I had to stop and tell my supervisor that "I know this person," I'd never get anything done or make any money! 
eye roll
I am being nice.  My advice:  Do research - not just this time but all the times - and it will pay off tenfold.  Now if that ain't nice, I don't know what is, unless you're implying the info should be laid out on a silver platter garnished with parsley, strawberries, powdered sugar, etc.  Now THAT's not nice.     
Eye Roll

And did anyone ask you to plan the meals in their homes?  No, they didn't!!


I try to tell myself to let it roll off
She just likes to be in the spotlight and wants to make sure no one else gets in, oh well. I shouldn't take it so hard.  It is kind of petty really.  It just makes me so angry that I want to place my foot where it doesn't shine.  Friday as I was leaving to go home super MT and another Obnoxious MT were talking. All I heard was "she this.. and she that and as I got closer obnoxious MT said "bye" and not a friendly bye, have a nice weekend it was more like "get the (bad word) out of here" type bye.  Gee, wonder why she flunked out of nursing school.  I got paranoid thinking they were plotting something to make me look foolish or insignificant in front of the supe, like they did earlier but then again the supe knows how long I have been there, she knows the work I do so why worry....but I do. 
That Pepto-Bismol Commercial song!
I now know who actually sings on that Pepto-Bismol commercial - "Upset stomach, diarrhea, -- YEAAAAAAA"  It's the doctors I transcribe for!
Agreed. Roll with the changes in the
be phased out.  Those who refused to switch out of WP5.1 and learn Word or some other windows-based program now have a much more limited set of work options.  The same thing will happen with ASR.  You can learn to work with it and learn to be part of it or eventually be obsolete and out of a job.
I like the Roll-Up Keyboard
I bet it's throwable too!!
So you'd just "leave it alone?" BIG EYE ROLL!

 No wonder docs are farming it out overseas!!  


sway and roll

If a boat goes by with a pretty big wake -- which they are not supposed to do, you will feel it go up and down.  No one has gotten seasick while visiting.  When the wind comes up  it does remind you of being at the ocean.   We have a fire boat here on the island and when there has been an emergency they have jetted by in the middle of the night and that does wake me up.  But since we are tied off on three sides now to concrete pilings, we don't move like a boat at all, if anything it kinds of puts you to sleep.   The worse time for a rock and rolling though is when you are sitting on the toilet, that is when you notice it the most.  But after 11 years, I barely notice it at all.   Thanks again to all of you,  it may be Saturday but I don't have a lawn to mow at least.   I tease my newphews about coming down to ride the riding lawnmower to mow my lawn, instead I have a paddle boat that we paddle around the moorage in. 


just had another funny on - i'm on a roll! sm

typing neurobehavioral tests for my neurologist doc. Part of it is a question regarding knowing the name of the current president.  The patient's answer just slayed me.....


Question: Do you know the name of the current President?


Answer:  "Bambo"


Now that's one for the books!!


One quarter short of a roll...nm
.
LMAO! You're on a roll!
I was thinking the same thing!

How great thou art, my Mensa MT!

LOL
i remember having to roll pennies
to buy gas for the car, and it wasn't 30 dollars. Gas was about 1.50 at that time, but doesn't matter how much it is if you don't have the money!  Another time, I had a 25 cent coupon good towards some cleanser...the store clerk forgot to take it off my grocery order, stating that "it's only a quarter!"  I only replied, "I hope you never have to find out just how much a quarter is."  Unfortunately, I found out a few years later that, yes, she found how much a quarter meant. 
# 8 a few times should roll it back - NM

Yeah, could you imagine if we made a work at home commercial
that was truthful?  Instead of the serenely peaceful scene with the children playing quietly at your feet while you made $50,000 a year, there would be toys flying everywhere, kids jumping on the furniture, the dog yacking on the carpet, neighbors banging on the door, the phone ringing off the hook, laundy piled up to the ceiling, and a husband whining about something or another. 
too true. Spring break is somekind of commercial myth anyway,

Tootsie Roll Pops! Am addicted.

We bake ours and roll them in instant potatoes instead
of bread crumbs.

They are in the roll section ( I have seen them with the bakery rolls too)

I do LOTS of ops, really almost exclusively, and the ones I have ... (drum roll) ... lol ... SM
and use primarily are Stedmans Equipment Words, The Surgical Word Book, and HPI's General Surgery/GI Words and Phrases.  I also have the Stedman specialty books, but the only one I really tend to use of those is the orthopedic one, for some reason.  I also use Google a lot and, again, primarily for orthopedics.  That seems to be the specialty that changes a lot....well, that and cardiology but I don't do much cardiology right now.  HTH
Calm down now. I'm just saying the roll works out much more economically for my needs...
I double checked and it's $52 including shipping for 5016 labels (8-1/2 x 1). That's equal to 456 sheets (8-1/2 x 11) or $0.1140 per sheet. Two of your boxes (250 x 2 = 500 sheets) x $28.70 per box is $57.40. That's $0.1148 per sheet plus your time cutting each of those little notes apart. I just print off the sheet and the office separates each note without the chance of losing a little 1" paragraph somewhere before it got to the med rec dept. I have absolutely no problem with curl, as the roll core is fairly large and I use a paper towel dispenser for quick dispensing. Six of one, half dozen of another. The gal from Med Arts Press is the one I was really speaking about. Their prices are nasty. Only if you want custom colors and then I'd go to Compulabel before MAP. And BTW I wasn't trying to step on toes, just trying to help save somebody a buck. Your welcome.
I'm curious. Does it kind of sway/roll with the
Or does the ballast/weight of it keep it very steady?  I've never been on a barge or anything quite like that, so I'm just trying to imagine.  Seems it would be so comforting (rock-a-bye, baby...) if it does move a bit.  Doesn't make any of your guests a little seasick, does it?
Love Shack and That Old Time a Rock n' Roll!!
