even the doctor laughed as he dictated in the lab work on a 48-year-old man that 'thankfully his urine pregnancy test was negative" !!

Bet that man wouldn't be happy to be charged for one though!

 I got the 24 hour flu, diarrhea, dry mouth, nausea the whole thing.  My body could not wait to get that stuff out of me.  Working at home, I always prepare meals, and eat healthy, have a fruit smoothie maker, and a veggie juicer, and can afford the time it takes to prepare these things since its convenient.  But about two weeks ago, I was out and about and thought hmm, a nice greasy hamburger sounds good, (mom calls them "loogie" burgers)  so I got a number 2 and number 4 at Jack in the Box, gobbled it down, sick the next day. 

I also got food poisening from a local chinese food place a few years ago, that is THE most violent illness (anybody have the misfortune to experience this?).  I didnt feel right immediately after I got the last bite of lemon chicken down, sort of weak, later that night my stomach gurgled like it was trying to jump out of my body, intestinal stuff went on, diarrhea, fever the next morning, couldnt move.  I felt that chicken map its way through my entire system.  I was so hungry, that I didnt take the time to notice it was gray in color.  By that night I was completely fine after the last drop had left my body. 

Don't trust other people to prepare your food these days!  There is a reason its called fast food, anything can jump on there, so fast they don't even notice it!  With cheap labor, do you think the people who prepare the food care about you and/or their job?  They can get fired and go work at another joint like that.  I would pay the extra money to get take out at the outback or get one of those frozen box meals at the grocery store.

I happened across the movie The Raven - a take on the Edgar Allen Poe poem.  It starred Vincent Price and Boris Karloff  and Peter Lorre.  Peter Lorre had a son in this movie - now remember this movie was made in 1963.  His son - Jack Nicholson.  If you get a chance and are a fan - see if you can catch it at the video store or on one of the movie channels - he was extremely young and a horrible actor - it's hard to believe that he has become what he is today after playing that role - it was really something to laugh at.  He had a love interest with Vincent Price's daughter.  It's a fairly short movie and worth your while - I watched it twice. 

x have a good night!

I have seen several posts on the board about using Magic Jack with a C-phone etc, however, would like to find out more about it regarding voice quality etc.  I have both a wireless setup as well as an air card from Sprint and talked to the Sprint rep last night about using Magic Jack with my air card and he said that because my connection speeds are extreemely good, he did not foresee any problems.  I also talked to a "tekky" friend of mine in Las Vegas and he said that he has a client who loves it, but in reading the reviews, I have seen both good and bad about it.  I wouldn't at this time need it for work, but just more as a "home phone line".  Any information would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thanks

I'd surely like to know which fast food place pays $11.50/hour to start -- please let me know as I'd be the first in line for that!!  My hourly wage ranges anywhere from $8 to maybe $12/hour depending on the dictators I get -- ugh!! Before 2002 I was making anywhere from $15 to $22/hour, but transcription has certainly gone to the dogs -- grrrrrr!  I think there would certainly be a lot less stress flipping burgers, ya think!

Below posters you are all right.  This weekend, the MJ stopped working with the foot pedal across the board.  We had 5 MT in our company and same thing happened to everyone.  It has not worked since.  You can't get an answer from the live tech either.  So, anyone thinking of trying this with a C-phone - don't.  I have been using mine perfectly - and loved it!!! - for many months now.  I'm very disappointed but I wanted to pass this along for others.  I guess it was too good to be true for awhile.....

Someone mentioned VOIP below but with limited minutes.  Anyone set up with them for unlimited business plan - is is truly unlimited - and did you like it?  Appreciate your input.

I have seen discussions about this on these boards and I was wondering just how reliable is it.  I currently have Vonage which is costing me 30 bucks a month.  I've heard a lot about Magic Jack and unlimited long distance and it would save me a bundle in the long run; however, I don't want to ditch Vonage because it works great.

Mind you, I don't use my Vonage line for transcribing.  It is strictly my business/personal telephone voice calls only.  I found there is a lag when using my C-phone with Vonage that drives me nuts.  I have DSL through the local phone company and so have an analog phone line through them.  That is the phone line I use for my fax machine, transcribing, etc. 

I'm looking for a way to trim some of the fat off my home office budget.  I need/want two phone lines period.  I won't have it any other way.  I didn't sign a new cell phone contract in lieu of a prepaid cell phone.  At this point, I have a new job with a hospital and I won't need to be using a C-phone.  Everything is digital and through the PC. 

So here's the short answer - is Magic Jack reliable and functional?

I haven't read through the rest of the replies yet, but the e mail address reminds me of that poster EMTjack or something like that who was a little fishy.

I'd stay away from them.

Had anyone found out any more about whether Magic Jack will work with a c-phone?  Or any other way to use the c-phone from either a cell phone service or internet service instead of a land line?  Will the Dock-N-Talk work with a c-phone?  Thanks in advance for any input!

The fine print on my Magic Jack indicates that if I use it for more than 20 percent more than the average person (whatever that means), they may discontinue my service.  I am not familiar with the MT jobs that require unlimited phone service or the C-phone, but I imagine that those minutes would add up rather fast.

As far as using the Magic Jack for long-distance calls to family and friends, it seems to work great.  It just doesn't seem like a good choice for MT work, IMHO.

I read when I go to bed. Even if it's a really great book, I'm usually out like a light after 2 chapters. If I wake up at 2:00 a.m. for some reason, I just open my book back up and read some more and fall back asleep.

It keeps your mind off what is going on, which is what insomnia is usally all about.

If you treat it with meds of any kind, you'll end up relying on them. Not addicted to them, but relying on them and I'd rather rely on the library than the pharmacy.

It's cheaper too. :)
