I don't watch AI, but Bucky is from a nearby town. They

In Reply to: For sure... Bucky? He's nice, but has no pro future. - And seems dumb as a box of hair.

interview Rocky (his twin) on our local Fox channel frequently.  He always has his hair back in a ponytail and it looks much better than what I've seen with Bucky and that hair all loose - and what is it with that wide stance I've seen on the previews.  If it is supposed to be sexy it isn't.  Anyway his brother doesn't seem to be a genius either, but he doesn't come across as a dummy either.   Evidently he sings too and he said that both of them would probably move to Nashville and try to get something going.

Me too! I have a really good one nearby.
Silk shirts for $5, a Liz Claiborne outfit for $15...it's great!
My nearby hospitals pay around $10 as well (sm)
I make 22-25$/hr at home. I live in an area where average pay is low, but likewise cost of living is reasonable.
LOVE ER!!! I watch the re-runs every day, and watch the new ones on Thursday night!!

Thanks everyone who responded. I don't have family nearby and no
neighbors I would feel comfortable asking. I think I will use the oil treatment and hopefully this will take care of it. I did the over the counter treatment on all of us even though only my youngest and myself seem to have had them. Did the cleaning of clothes, sheets, house, etc., top to bottom, but just concerned about rehatching of any eggs on my head. My youngest has been lice free since the treatment and I have been removing any eggs I have found. Today found only one, so we are getting there. I think I will try the oil treatment on myself and hopefully that will take care of it. Thanks again.
They've turned them off. There was a wreck nearby and the SM
emergency vehicles couldn't get there, so he voluntarily turned them off.
I just did my part - sent it to nearby news station.
.
I've done it a couple of time to a nearby state SM
and a bunch of times to a nearby relative when my house was temporarily unlivable. My company loaded the programs on my laptop for me (but with a previous employer we did copy them from home when I wanted to try working on my new laptop).

I have a wireless keyboard and mouse, and a little electronic doohicky that allows my laptop to work off somebody else's computer (unfortunately I don't travel enough to justify subscribing to my own mobile service, so I could work in the car for instance).

Anyway, it's an easy matter these days. After loading the programs I've never felt a need to bother my employer with details of just where I'm working, and they've never displayed any interest either. I did buy a little $20 folding table from Office Depot so I could set up where and at a height that suited me.
Bucky
No pro future for Bucky?? Huh-he was approached by Led Zepplin a few weeks into Idol. I am not a rock fan or a Led Zepplin fan, but think that was a pro invitation. I am from Rockingham, so know. I have only lived here for two years, originally from the midwest, but as far as Kelly and Bucky-they talk and act like they do down here. Might sound "dumb like a box of hair," but that is the way it is here. I think Kelly is cute (and plays a dumb blonde well), but also think she has probably lived a sheltered life and never been out of Albemarle, North Carolina. All in all, North Carolina still has 3 in the top 8. Cannot beat that!!
Rockingham, NC-Bucky
I agree Bucky is not the best choice for American Idol, but I have lived here only 2 yrs and they sure are making it a Big Deal here. I won't vote for someone "just because." I want the true "American Idol." Love Carrie Underwood. I liked Kellie at first, not my fav, but now she is playing the dumb blonde way too well. I think she is best in jeans. Didn't fit the tight dress thing (pulling up the back and the boobs) with heels though she looked nice. Can't wait for next week and the 50's theme!!! Should be good. I definitely think Kevin needs to go. I do believe he actually thinks he is a sex symbol. I think Chris is cute and has a voice, but I HATE that rock and thinking you have to pick up the mic stand and play with it. Drives me nuts. Must do something for a few people. What's his name did it last season. Is kind of like football players taking off the helmets and doing a little jig in the end zone. Oh.....
Bucky might get the boot . .
Simon was right - that hair was just bad! The stylists are doing them wrong.
Bucky must go! I agree as well sm.
I personally don't think he has the vocals for this competition; he should have tried Nashville Star!
bucky may have a future but he does come.NM
.
Kevin, Kellie, and Bucky can go -

Taylor and Katherine were my favs this week.  Taylor is consistent in entertaining people and Katherine has a very strong voice, although her choice of songs isn't always the best.  I'm hooked on Idol!  LOL  Bye-bye Kevin.


For sure... Bucky? He's nice, but has no pro future.

but no matter what Bucky sings....nm

I agree, Bucky's performance was at least fun.
Ace is always annoying. But I think Bucky was very fortunate to have lasted as long as he did. I'm sure he'll be able to find work, at least as a second job. There have been other country singers that did find even though they aren't great singers. I've never thought Brooks & Dunn had great voices at all, and they make a living.
I live in a small rural area and they housed some evacuees at a nearby military base
crime went UP in our little community that previously HAD a ~very low~ crime rate. It is a FACT. I'm not saying all NO residents are like that, but MANY seem to be.

My mom was raised in conditions like this poster describes. Mom's parents died when she was 7 (father) and 9 (mother). Her teenage sister (newlywed) raised her and 4 other siblings. They had next to nothing. Not ONE of them turned to a life of crime. Not ONE even graduated high school but they still made good lives for themselves. Life was rough for them, but they didn't blame it on everyone else and cry around about what the president should be doing for them. It is all about RESPONSIBILITY and taking what life throws your way. IMO.
I was replying to a previous post about Bucky.
One poster said that Kellie made Southerners look stupid and one poster said Bucky might get the boot. I was responding to them in my post.
Yeah. Bucky was not one of my faves but it was Ace's turn to go!
x
I'm ready for Bucky to go, too. I think Chris really took it to the next level last night and I
thought Mandisa was fabulous!  Thought it was funny how these kids really weren't even familiar with Barry Manilow, guess I'm showing my age.
I think Bucky will go home tonight. I did not like Taylor's performance.
.
Maybe in their town.
I can' t say but I can tell you with line rates and incentive pay, I make over 65K at the medical center where I transcribe, located in Nebraska.
Not in my town.
The patient sitters at the local hospital here are not licensed personnel, not even CNAs.  Generally, a high school diploma and short orientation with CPR is all that is required as far as training or credentials.  Also, the usual pre-employment stuff is required--drug testing, preemployment physical, etc.  It also pays less than $10 per hour.
We have those names in our town too.

Anyone going out of town tomorrow?
I'm going to Cincinnati 2C my sisters! Yikes! Wish me luck...
We have a place like that in town. sm

It's a teeny little grocery store and their prices used to be off the wall because they were owned by a big grocer (IGA). I never shopped there for anything but meat as it is cut right at the store while you wait or it's fresh in the cooler.


When big Wally World decided to build the Superstore the teeny grocery store decided to buy out from IGA and named it their own market. The prices there now are even cheaper than Wally World and I no longer shop anywhere else. What used to cost $75.00 at the local market costs about $30 because they got rid of the "middle man."


They had to save themselves and they did. I can actually walk there if need be and sometimes I should as the teeny parking lot is usually packed full. The checkout girl (or girls if it's busy) don't wear name tags because we know them. They go to school with our kids. It's like, "Hi Megan, still playing soccer?"


Good for them.


mt seminar in my town
There is a seminar about MT in my town tonight and I wanted to go to see what lies they probably are telling. My son's first ball practice is at the same time. I would love to hear what they are saying up there tonight. Most embelish our wages and it is a shame.
Hospitals in town
I hear sometimes that there are still hospitals doing their dictations with their own transcriptionists, and I'm lucky that I found one through their website... but wondering, just how do you find out who does the hospitals in your city? No one ever advertises in the newspapers anymore and most hospital websites have nothing about transcription. I live in a pretty big city with lots of hospitals and clinics and outpatient surgeries. Surely they're not all outsourced to the Big Greedies.
We have a huge 4 day celebration in our little town

There is something going on from tonight right through until the fireworks on the 4th.  There is a street dance, a bean hole bean supper, a lobster bake and just tons of stuff going on.


Our town is only population 7500, but the celebration has grown to over 30,000 attendees for the 2 hour parade, followed by fun, games, entertainment and music in the park and then fireworks that start at 9:00 and last for hours. It's great fun!


I'm lucky too.  I live just a mile from the festivities, so I'm home for a long time while people are still waiting in traffic. The traffic goes smoothly though.  The events have always been very well organized with our school bus drivers giving free shuttle bus rides.


Happy 4th everyone!



Denver beautiful town
Granola tree huggers??  Sounds good to me..better than cholesterol artery clogged tree destroyers.  My cousin lives in Westminster, another in Estes Park. 
What does a gallon of gas cost in YOUR town?
$2.39 here. Northwestern Wisconsin. It is pathetic.
dead town-ban WM stores
A little over 20  years ago WM opened in our town even though they had a Howard's at that time and put them out of business.  Our nice town also had a sporting goods store, fabric store, several pharmacies, several local clothing stores and pool supply place.  The only one that survived were the pharmacies.  WM moved out a little over a year ago.  Now we have to go 30 miles to find anything that we can't find in a dollar store.  Not only do we have a big empty building that they left, now we will have another empty building that a chain grocery store is leaving because WM built super stores in the surrounding towns that use to shop in our nice little town.  I suspect it will take years, if ever, to recover.  Our only hope is that we have good leadership in our community.
Have you taken a course? Do you live in a town/city that - sm
maybe you could get some PRN work or part time work to get your resume started?
Try Googling him with his old address or name in the town he was from - also
I think there is an on-line site called privateeye.com, or something like that you pay a one time fee that could probably dig up all you want to know and more. If you have kids, kick him out (change locks), stay in the house if you have one, document any bruises, cuts, etc, with pictures, tell people, mom, dad, friends about it. My husband ask me before we married if I would ever leave/divorce him and I told my husband only if he hit me (1 x would be all it would take) or cheated on me that I was gone (he cheated on his ex-wife-- not with me, did not know him then and he'd be out on the street, and about $100K poorer at this point)--Good luck and I hope you land on your feet (running).
Yep, very very quiet town. Not much happening there

LOL ... 8 pm central, NBC ... but not in Little Rock or some town nm
in Indiana ... they are not showing it. 
get outta town! congrats!

Well I'll probably be stoned and run out of town, but SM

it is the craziest thing I've ever heard in my life, and then asking you to PAY to sit the beta is beyond ridiculous.


For me, the CMT is unnecessary. I have never been without work a day in 25 years. I can work tomorrow if I lose my job today.


I've always said I may not be able to pass it for all I know - it may be over my head. But for me in my life, it is not a thing I've given a moment's thought to in 15 years. Yes, when I was supervisor of transcription at a big hospital, I thought about taking it and was encouraged to do so, but I just never did it.


I don't hold anything against somebody who does take those tests but for me they mean nothing.

Used to use Hand-Eze but can't find in my little town sm
any more. Found "Thergonomic Hand-Aids"
in my local Hobby-Lobby (an arts and crafts store), which is a similar item. I wear them inside out because the seams rub too much on my skin, so inside out is more comfortable.
$2.09 in small-town NE. Seems to have hit a standstill :(

I live in a very small town...
and it is so scary to think about all of this, even here. Just 30 minutes away from us this week they put several schools on lock down because there was a "fugitive" on the run. As the other poster said, it is such a scary time when we cannot even feel safe sending our kids to school. I thought living in a small town would be better, but the Amish community issue has quickly changed my mind of that.
Is there a way to find out if new doctors are in town?

It seems I've heard of a website like this before, but just can't remember. Thanks!


Are they in a really small town in Georgia?
NM
Sounds like my small town!
Except we actually have 2 choices, cable internet and then Embarq. Embarq is the only choice we have for phone service.

I got fed up with the cable service and switched a few months ago to Embarq, it has not gone out one single time. I am extremely pleased I switched.
Asheville is pretty town from what I saw
a few years ago, visited the Biltmore. That place is really old inside. When you retire, you can always come to my little piece of heaven. Only draw back I have to here is too many tornado warnings, watches and threatening of tornados. Just don't care for those!
sorry, that is call out of town family and friends, nm

Our small town Wal-Mart doesn't do that.
There is a person at the door in case the buzzer is activated but I have never been asked to show a receipt unless the buzzer has gone off.
Mine doesn't either, and they are not small town, any of them. nm
