I just go paper route as I find TT a pain in the butt and it takes me longer actually - sm
plus they flag our return every year anyway (4 years running) so I am not wasting my time and money on it. My refund takes 4-8 weeks depending on their inventive reasons to hold our refund, but it always comes through eventually, last year it only took 1 month total. So I am hoping this year to get the same, need to get off my but and it it as we have $1400 coming back. TT is supposed to be reliable, and guaranteed, as long as all the info. you put is is correct and you can back it up, go for it, you already spent the money on the software you might as well use it.
I typed Dr. Cap'n Crunch eater this a.m.
I could hear him slurping to keep the milk from running down his chin.
Do we know what software or hardware they might use?
I'm just curious if anyone may know if these "Big 3" companies use any software from www.nchsoftware.com.au or hardware from www.altoedge.com ?
Computer hardware question..sm
I want to start working on my laptop and I currently work on ExText. The operating system requirements I was told I needed to work on my laptop is to have 800 Mhz processor. My laptop (brand new Dell with dual processors) says it has 667 Mhz. Does this mean I can't work on it? Or will it just be super slow?
Thanks
Router has hardware firewall that SM
needs to be configured, so it has that for extra security. Plugging modem directly into phone jack leaves you wide open to trojan horses, viruses, etc. I have NetGear, it is good. LinkSys is Walmart quality but adequate; we had a lot trouble with ours resetting during power surges so keep your ID handy and do not lose your manual.

I got a replacement spring at my hardware store .... sm
take your remaining spring as a sample for the gauge ... i had to buy one a foot long, irrc, and cut it with scissors but I think it cost under $2. you might call around to save time ... I used an "old time" amazing local hardware store but I suspect my local Ace hardware would have something too .. (but doubt home depot or Lowes would) ...
There are several reasons I have half a dozen "dead" keyboards in my shed ... and this is one ... I think later models weren't made with this "feature" (the spring under tension poppping out and impossible to find feature, that is) ;-)
A sound card is a piece of hardware.
You'll have to determine if a sound card is installed. If not, you can install one but that's probably not the answer you're looking for.
Is there another option/location where you can go to get this work done?
You really should have checked all of this out before you left home. I ALWAYS take my laptop with me because the one person I can rely on in most cases is me.
I am sorry about your situation.
Control Panel, Printers & Other Hardware, View installed
printers or fax printer, making sure the printer you are using has a "check mark" next to it. Right click on the printer that has a check next to it (if there are more than 1 listed), click on Properties. Under General, click on Print Test Page. If there is an error, it usually will list the problem and and offer you the option to use Repair. Additionally, you may want to check your connections to be sure they are secure.
Add me too!!! I appreciate it. About stores that
say "Merry Christmas" - I figure I don't need to do my CHRISTMAS shopping in those stores!
Stores
I think these stores pay minimum wage. Walmart is known to be a very bad employer so try the other one first.
thrift stores
When I first left my ex, I moved in with a coworker and her two sons. About twice a week, she would hit the thrift stores and antique stores. I started going with her. What a blast. I could not believe all the really good stuff you could buy for just a little bit of money. I usually check out thrift/resale stores about twice a month. One lady I used to work with at a local hospital, dressed so nice, so chic..She always looked so put together. One day at lunch she told us all of her clothes are bought at the local thrift store.
mom pop stores being squeezed
I agree 100%. If the little mom and pop stores were charging close to the prices of Wal-Mart, you bet I would shop there exclusively, however, I have to think about my family first and providing for them as I am the only one bringing in a measley Transcriptionist paycheck and I dont have enough hours in the day or enough energy to go back to school..So, I truly am sorry about the whole situation but isnt that what this administration and others have tried to brain wash us about..its all capitalism..so if a big company comes in and squeezes out the smaller ones, it is still capitalism? I dont agree with it but it is happening all over America and the little guy and working guy are being squeezed. I mean, it is even happening with us and outsourcing..This administration says outsourcing is a good thing yet it is taking middle class jobs. Oh, geez..truly sorry for the rant.
some of the dollar stores where everything
is a dollar carry them, that way you can afford as many as you want
If you PC stores any reports then...sm
you wouldn't be HIPAA compliant to allow them access to your PC for any reason. Tell them that you use your PC for work and cannot allow others to use it. Also think of it this way - what if they downloaded something that screwed up your system and you couldn't work for a while? Not worth the risk!
Are you talking about our stores
Piggly-Wiggly here in Georgia as well as Alabama? Yes, we do have those.
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.
There are TONS of stores that I see every place I go.

I agree, best out there in the grocery stores.
We have Publix - MAJOR stores all over....sm
Publix says tipping is not allowed. I do not agree with that. They are loading TONS of stuff into cars, why shouldn't they get a tip? I tip, their bosses are not outside watching anyway and I don't know that anyone ever lost a job with Publix (one of the largest employers in the SE) due to this
to each his/her own I suppose 
How and where did you get it for free? Online you have to pay for it, and in stores you have to pay
We've used it the past 3 years and it could not be processed and sent w/o paying. Now, we could go through the motions, answer all the questions, and get the final result without paying, but to actually electronically file and receive our refund, that is when it asks for payment. So how'd you get yours free?
check out the junk stores
like Salvation Army. I paid $40 for a few at Office Depot type store and then found a few for $1.99 at our alcoholism junk store. They are Dell and great, and when they wear out, don't feel bad about just trashing them.
saving money/thrift stores
I first hit our local thrift store when my dear mom was in a nursing facility with Alzheimer's. She'd just forget where she "folded and put her clothes away" or the laundry would lose some. So, I was able to buy mom many beautiful blouses/tops, dresses for way too cheap. Usually walked out of there with 5-6 complete outfits under $20.00.
She's gone now, but in her memory, I still do my shopping stints there, then haul it over to the nursing home for those residents who don't have family, it truly helps me more than it helps them.
Exactly! The newspapers all say that the grocery stores are open.
Why are people in expensive cars waiting in line for free stuff then? There are 2,800 people staying in shelters that NEED to be helped for truly being victims of the storm rather than for being "victims" of lack of planning or preparedness. Believe me, we're not without compassion. We do care. However, people 50 or 100 years ago didn't sit back on their laurels waiting for others to do for them.
Barnes and Noble or any other book stores where you
can sit and have a cup of coffee and look at the books. I am single too right now but not really looking but if I were, Barnes and Noble or the library. Also, I have found that when I am not looking at all, I meet somebody. Good look!!!
Walmart opened up 15 stores in CHINA....nm

Rexall Drug Stores all had jukeboxes sm
at each table.
The ice cream truck came around and you got a cone for a nickel.
You could play flashlight tag at night without fear.
Drive-in movies were a blast.
Sunday afternoon movies were 75 cents to get in--mom and dad would send us there for the afternoon for a break (there were 5 of us).
The A&P store had green stamps. I still have the dinnerware set mom bought with them.
By the way, my '65 Mustang only costs me $2.00 a week to drive. I just don't take it out of town for fear of wrecking it.
Let's write to our local grocery stores
now and let them know we do not want to buy food from China, including produce. Please don't start taking apples from China. We trust apples from AMERICA and perhaps Australia and New Zealand, but China can keep their apples.
Special
What is your suggestion of what is special?
Special
For starters a good high pay rate with bonuses. Good benefits including a retirement with a match by the employer. And while we're wishing, how bout a little more respect for the MTs.
Special needs son
Teacher sent home this website: www.internet4classrooms.com He actually goes on the computer and navigates around the site pretty well. I'm hoping to get some time to look at it and see what else he can do.
You are special
And maybe God knew that your stepdaughters and nieces and nephews were going to ~need~ you. HAPPY "Special Aunt Patti" DAY to you!!!!
Special Needs
I understand that everyone wants what is best for their children, I know I do. But, it is very frutrating when there are other children in the class and parents think that their child should get all the extra attention, at the expense of 20 other kids. In our district, we have more special education teachers (many specifically to work wiht ADHD children) than we do regular teachers and our gifted program got cut, because this stuff is federally mandated. I would sure like it if they mandated GT programs too.
My son is ADHD and GT as well. It is my responsiblity as a parent to work with him, both on his education and his medical issues. He was medicated through junior high and still struggled a bit, but now, as a freshman in HS, he is averaging over 95%.
It is our responsibility to do what is needed to help our children excel. Not just the schools.
You should not need anything special--sm
like adaptors or anything to plug it in to your computer. They plug in just like a CRT monitor. They are slightly different in visualization though, (colors do not seem as bright, at least to me) and they do take some getting used to, but I really like mine. I have an LG 17 inch.
special thank you
Just wanna say a special "thank you" for someone emailing me a book that will give me so much info on this topic:)
I guess Healthfood stores would carry these items.

I LOVE shopping for clothes at resale stores
I find fashionable, barely worn, name brand clothes. It really is fun!! I couldn't imagine paying for new clothes anymore!
It's a little harder to find good kids' clothes at the second hand stores, but I have found some really nice ones that are real bargains.
The card should have been given as gift cards for grocery stores, etc.

I have a sister who we call the "Queen of the Dollar Stores."
Bless her heart, she buys all her Christmas at dollar stores (decorations and all) and even gives me makeup or hair products that she has tried and doesn't like. She doesn't know that I know this, though. I just smile, hug her and go on. It's not that she can't afford any better, she just sweeps the dollar stores, gets everyone's gifts in about 30 minutes, and she is through for the season. I guess it's not supposed to be about the presents, but the thought (but sometimes I wonder what that thought was, LOL)! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Yeah, but are these other companies trying to put stores in every market in the country?
I think that is what makes Wal-Mart so "evil" and scares me so badly. Soon we won't have ANYONE left to buy our goods from because they force all the other competitors out of business (particularly the small business owners) and then we are FORCED to buy everything from overseas countries/Wal-Mart.
Publix stores are starting to look like Super Wal-Marts! Have you seen that?
What news channel? I have to use my debit as a credit at stores and such. NM

Garage sales, consignment stores, coupons
If your income for the prior year is below 24,000 in Calif., you are eligible for 20% discount on gas/elec. Also, if your income is less than 12,000/yr, you are eligible for food bank visits once a month which total about $120.00. It has been six years since I went down this road, so the figure may have changed.
After a divorce, major surgery and no job, I found myself penniless. I had yard sales daily. Went to swap meets and sold my things there. Also, took my finer clothes to a consignment shop. Used coupons to determine what I would be eating. Thank God, I had no children.
I think when you have kids, you really need a nest egg of some sort that is absolutely untouchable.
This sounds like a temporary situation if you price your home to sell.
Actually I never understood what was so special about them
I wouldn't care one way or another if I never heard another Beatles song again
You're not special, lol.
:+
Ahhhh, but he IS special!
nm
I never took any special courses, but I had
worked a total of almost 15 years in a hospital, first in billing, where we had to code all the diagnoses and ops ourselves, and then in another hospital in rehab, where part of my duties were transcription for that dept and some of their various clinics. After my second child was born, I quit the hospital and a friend who had 20 years in transcription taught me what I needed to learn. I got hired by one of the first company's I applied with, and have been doing this for seven years now, and love what I do!
The one by me is having an anniversary special -sm
I believe it is 1 year since they opened up. $29 a month, and the normal $149 membership fee is discounted to $49 ($100 off) for the first 100 that sign up this month. So I figured that is a good deal, plus my neighbor and I will support each other. She is very competitive so she will keep us both going. They have monthly contests there as well. I am planning to go either this afternoon to check it out or go with her tonight and sign up. I need to lose this weight before it starts affecting my health in any major ways (get out of breath with minimal exertion though) but that will not last. Plus I'd love to go up to my dad's at Christmas and be 40+ pounds lighter, I'd still be overweight but I know I'd look a lot better.
Well aren't you special!!
