It really is a great show. Love the chemistry on the show between the cast & the story line is never boring. Can't wait until next week!

I was a recap of the first season to bring you up to date.
Another show did that recently too. Next week starts the new season and yes, she lost the baby (ectopic if I remember correctly).
OK LET ME RECAP THIS
It seems that this discussion is way off what I originally meant, so let me just say this:
What I was originally upset about was the "make money quick work from home" scam that was being advertised in my area. Basically it was to "show" people how to get into the MT profession (by taking their short two week course).
This kind of advertisement makes us look bad. It makes us look like joe blow off the street can do this job without a problem. That isn't true.
My point was that for someone to be an MT they should have to have some type of proof of LIGITIMATE training, be it college, MT school, or life learning credentials (i.e. MTs who have been at this for quite some time now who started back when it wasn't all the rage).
Just like a doctor has to have proof that they know what they are doing, MTs should have to have proof that they know what they are doing.
The reason our wages go down and there are so many people out there MTing who shouldn't be (i.e. the ones who do it ONLY so they can work from home, not because they are into medical, or enjoy it. That's like being a full time preacher for the money!) and the reason that there is so much sub-par work out there is because it has become so simple for someone to say they are an MT.
I think that is one of the reasons that they get away with sending our work overseas. If people knew how important our work is, they wouldn't appreciate the fact that some person in India who probably doesn't speak a whole lot of English and probably doesn't have medical training is typing their permanent medical file.
I don't care about AHDI, AAMT, whether it's college or MT school like Andrews. What I care about is that since I have graduated and begun working as an MT I see a profession that should be held in high regard laughed at and the people who do the job paid horribly. I told someone the other day that I do medical transcription from home and they said "Gee have you been paid yet because that's a scam!"
I know things are getting bad everywhere, not just in the MT profession. Still, we need a way to have ourselves heard. I don't know how to do it. I thought AHDI was supposed to be our go to group all through school, but then I find out they support outsourcing and a couple of other bad things and I think the group may have started out with good intentions but now they are just money hungry like a lot of other companies.
So anyways, I'm sorry if I was misunderstood originally. I just really wish we could find a way to "fight for our rights" and to be taken seriously. Like I said, I am new at this. I have had the pleasure of knowing some long time MTs and watching them work and I hope to one day be as good as they are. But I'm afraid at the rate we are going that the MT profession may not be around much longer.
Grey's anatomy finale recap comments
Denny died after his transplant, embolism. Alec was very kind and nice to Izzie afterward. Meredith and Derek had some steamy intimate moments at the end. Finn seems very taken with Meredith but it will probably do him no good. The prom part seemed rather far fetched. Burke and Christina were hand in hand near the end of show. His surgical ability will probably return, after all what would Grey's be without him?? George and the lady orthopod are becoming closer. Next season should be interesting indeed. This show is my very favorite series, also like ER but Grey's is better.
The first season...
comes out on DVD on Valentine's Day. What a great gift that would make! I don't watch much TV myself, but I try to never miss an episode of Grey's Anatomy or House.
i go through it too - hopefully the season where
you live is almost over - thank goodness mine is - hope you feel better soon!
favorite season
Hi
My season is definitely fall. I am up here in northern Maine and it is so pretty with the leaves changing, etc. Of course then comes all the snow - and I don't even mind the cold or the snow but since I am getting to be "old and brittle" I am scared of the ice. However, I really am looking forward to October.
Season 2 out on DVD Aug 30th!

I have only been at this for about a year so this is my first tax season as an IC..how much SM
income do you have to report as earnings or do you have to report everything? My first job was with a company that was really really hateful. I only made 60-70 dollars from them and then I quit. Do I have to claim that as taxable income or not? I go to H&R block and they charge per form that you turn in...that would bite to pay 100 bucks to claim 60 or 70!!! Thanks for the input! 
I think this entire season is going to be -
while he is in the hospital and how the business continues without him. We won't know if he makes it until the last episode. Gotta feelin' he won't. The show will die with him. - 
funny cuz I think this season was....NM
ER t.v. show; is season done?
The last one I saw was the shootout and have not seen any since. Did I miss one or was that it for the season? (If I missed one don't tell me what happens.) Thanks!
I do too, but the season premier was a let down.

Give me any season that the temperature is
75 or below all the time and I love it. I don't like hot weather and can stand the cold much better. After all, I can always put on enough clothes to stay warm but I can't necessarily take off enough (not legally, anyway, LOL) to get cool. 
Anyone who would watch this season again would be masochist!

another hint for loney this season
After your little one gets off to school, head for the nearest Mc'D's or Burger King..lot's of nice working guys stop in for breakfast on a regular basis.
My sister actually met her new hubby by doing this and he gathers with his buddies every morning. He is an awsome guy and of course, working 
Height of hurricane season is Aug-Oct. (SM)
A friend booked a FL vacation during September. Told her don't do it. She still did. She had to cancel the entire vacation and "could not believe a hurricane hit." I always told family/friends to never go anywhere in the Atlantic, Gulf, FL, islands during hurricane season but they book it anyway because it's cheaper, then they complain about hurricanes ruined their plans. DUH!
Monday's season finale
I taped Sunday's show and watched it tonight, and immediately watched tonight's show. I can't believe what Izzie did. I certainly was glad I could buzz thru the boring part about planning the prom so I could get to the important parts. I thought Denny was safe, but not so fast. Very tender how what's-his-name intern picked Izzie up and held her at the end. I'm furious that Meredith and Derek are back at it. She's weird, self-absorbed, childish, ugly, and slutty, so get over her already, Derek! You so don't deserve your wife!
Glad I don't get overly involved in mere TV shows like some people, hehehe.
I agree that it's weak this season...sm
and if Katharine wins I'm going to need a barf bag. I can't imagine she'd sell records to anyone other than the guys who want to look at the picture of a pretty girl. She always looks so stuck-up and stuck on herself and my fiance and I still think that someone in her family line made Simon & Randy apologize to her when they did 3 weeks ago. I hope Taylor wins but doubt I'd buy anything he'd record either.
In order to keep the voting fair they really should make it 1 vote per phone number - that way we'd know who really was liked by the public and not who had the most people using the automated programs to vote hundreds of times for them.
Just stay away from Florida during hurricane season. nm

I watch the season DVDs through Netflix.
If I start watching a series, I really get frustrated when I have to miss, and I cannot be certain I will be able to watch it straight through. My life is so hectic I am not certain I could watch a whole show without interruption. I watch the season DVDs through Netflix. I get to watch them commercial free. Yes, I watch them later than everyone else, but it is less frustrating for me this way.
I heard they are making 20 shows - 12 for this season - 8 for next and that's it
Yeah and it pretty much stinks so far this season.

The 2-hour season finale is on tonight! nm

anybody bored with this summer? favorite month/season?
too hot to do anything. give me late september or early october please.
Totally not MT related, but where is the new season of Fear Factor on NBC? nm
We have propane and hubby pre-orders and pre-pays for the season, sm
Most economical way for us to go. Turn temp down to 65 overnight and use lots of blankets overnight. Use humidifier. The humidity helps the air feel warmer.
I agree also - I have quit watching this season altogether.

Sports - 1 sport a season. Fall = football for son and volleyball for daughter. sm
Their class load and homework is enough; however, the love sports and are great at too. So, I allow one sport per season, meaning Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. Fall = football and volleyball.
Winter = swimming and winter volleyball.
Spring = Lacrosse for both.
Summer = whatever they choose.
They choose what they want and if they choose not to do a sport any particular season, that is fine with me. They do not go out on school nights and their weekend activity is limited due to their sports. It works, and they stay out of trouble and both are on the honor roll.
Too many activities is just too stressful both all. My kids will tell me when they feel burnt and need a day off and I am fine with that. I tell them to stay home that day from practice.
It works for us.
'Tis the season for fresh asparagus, steamed or roasted, or spinach sauteed with garlic. Yum! nm

Don't cap happy holiday season. Cap the others and Happy Holidays alone. nm
