In Reply to: Night Owl - Yours is the most worthwhile post I have ever read on these boards - me
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.

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.
I saw it last night--it was great!! sm
Vince Vaughn was hilarious!! I loved the movie and highly recommend it.
Wow, that's great. I was just in awe last night sm
watching them chopper those little critters out of there. They had dogs, puppies, kitties and even a bird. It was great. The Humane Society said they were even going to go in and get the displaced gators and snakes and whatever else that was in there and take them to safer ground.This is a great place we live in, everyone chipping in and helping out.
Chris was great last night . .
I hate to say it by Simon is always right. Paula should let him speak without getting punched. Let him be the guy you love to hate.
Yeah, he was GREAT last night.....nm
       
Sounds great! I may make that tomorrow night.

saw a great show the other night where they separated with fabric strips that had been tie-died
using golf balls. I think this would look great and also be pretty see through so that your son felt like he had his own space but you would still be able to see what he was doing. With a three-year old, I guess you would use a permanent mount curtain rod so that he couldn't keep pulling it down. Good luck!
I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel. I think she's really smart and a good player. I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner. I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
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.
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!

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

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!! :)
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!
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,
Awesome! Here, a local computer repair shop has a similar commercial. Its really funny. nm

It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
I love the Sprint commercial where Donnie Osman is talking to Sprint guy
and says now he can call all his relatives so on and so on and Tito. Then Sprint guy says Donnie doesn't have a Tito in his family. So funny. A play on Michael Jackson's family. I love the Sprint guy anyway.
How about the Brawny commercial where the guy looks like he has a roll of Brawny in his pants?

Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it.
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything!
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

Thanks for all the great advice! You guys are great!

We had that last night.
I was just bored today since I'm not working. I like cooking different foods as a hobby. LOL
yes, I got it last night...sm
sure do wish they'd make up their minds. When I first started on DQS, from Cottage, I got "yelled" at about NOT putting 2 spaces, now I'm used to 2 spaces, and they go and change it again. Oh, well. Guess I'll get read to get "yelled" at again! 
About last night...

This was a great article. I think she hit the naile on the head in her assessment of each one of them.
Tks for posting the link.
Just on TV last night sm
I'm in California and DPSS Department of Social Service did this exact same thing and did not want to shred so out in open to recycle, 93,000 people to be notified. Shameful disregard, no wonder so muc IF theft. The TV station esposed this happening.
AI - CNN Last night
They had something on CNN last night where they had four people talking about Chris being voted off. One of them was an AI contestant from last year and she wasn't pulling any punches which was nice to see. She told it like it is. She didn't side step any questions like some people. She said Katharine should have gotten voted off instead of Chris and she and all the others said that Katharine would win, not because she was the most talented, but because she was the most marketable. One reporter said Chris got voted off because he was creepy! Of course, it was a man.
Get a PT job at night, then if you like it and - sm
they will let you got FT, then go for it. Never quit a job before you have another in the bag.
CSI NY last night... anyone see it?
So, on CSI NY last night, MAC sure did a good job using a shoestring to tie up that agents artery, didnt he? Even if he WAS in the service, I was impressed. Although, he's no Grissim. Speaking of which... CANT WAIT FOR TONIGHT! http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/ if you click here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/producer_picks/ you can watch the producer's favorite episodes for free on your computer. :D
Yes, I saw this last night
My husband is one of those Vets that could potentially have his identity stolen. :( Very concerning!
Other night job
I dance at the local "Dancing Bare"and am known as the cellulite Grandma.
up all night?
Has anyone ever pulled an all-nighter and typed through the night after your shift during the day? Please tell me how you did it! A strong pot of coffee is a given and some carbs are probably a given.
Also, those of you who work the midnight shift, do you have any tips for staying alert when the house is quiet and the neighborhood is fast asleep?
Thanks in advance!
up all night
This will really mess with your circadian rhythm and make you crazy. No kidding. That is why they outsource now to India (among other things) because when we sleep, they are having their morning coffee and are ready for their day.
