not getting high. Granted if I had done it a lot, maybe so, but I have 1 good friend who got high every day, she has a Master's degree and is a respected Speech Therapist, though we tease her about her specialty, "swallowing".

Nope, I'm losing brain cells here
I don't waste my time arguing with illiterates so I'm out of this thread.
You have a good time polluting it with your unintelligible posts, though.
Laterzzzz.....
I am only 40---starting to early....I found that pregnancy kills brain cells - nm

Heck, having kids deletes brain cells, year after hear!
Agree! Board is like chatting. Work requires more brain cells.

Had a Sony hand control years ago, then my thumb killed me! nm

Yeah, QT. Same account for 4 years. nm

Yeah I did. 13 years and going strong. :)
Yeah, as a matter of fact, for the last 12 years SM
one kid or the other. LOL.
Just kidding, mine are pretty good, but that daughter of mine, OY!
Heck, yeah! Good pay for 1-1/2 years experience.
Yeah, all that stuff is hard to deal with. I told my mom years ago to - sm
make a list of what she wanted to go to who-- she poo poo'd it saying people shouldn't fight over the stuff, etc.and that should not be necessary. Now luckily my brothers and I have not fought over things, as the only daughter my dad let me have what clothes and coats I wanted (plus my brothers had no desire for this and I was the only one the right size too), though he wanted to keep her jewelry for some strange reason. He did divvy out a few things between me and my 2 sisters-in-laws; but held onto the expensive stuff. At the time he had plans to give it to his then new girlfried, which needless to say pissed me off a lot. He also wanted my mom's fur coats back for the same reason, though he never formally asked he did heavily hint, and I did not volunteer them. He has since married this lady and FINALLY has come to the conclusion that he shouldn't give her my mom's good jewelry, though he has not given it to me as yet which is what she wanted...she told me many, many times she wanted me to have her stuff with a few things to go to my sisters-in-law (which my dad did do). So I don't know if I will ever get her other jewelry or not (I am a gold and silversmith to boot so I love jewerly as it is), my dad might have sold it for all I know, I hope not. I don't want it for the $$ but for sentimental reasons and to pass onto my 2 daughters eventually. One of these days I will get the nerve to ask my dad about it, not the easiest of things to discuss.
Yeah! After 11 years of it, I'm so sick of it I could literally scream, and that's no joke!
And these docs who dictate faster than the speed of sound, like they could give a rat's butt because they're in too big of a hurry to get out on the golf course, I like to strangle with my own bare hands. I'd like to tell them all what I really think about them. Truly, I have zip respect for 99.9% of the doctors out there today, who seem completely incompetent. How they manage to get out of med school I'll never know! 
I have tried countless times too many to mention and nothing is done about the cells phone, trains,
buses, dictating in the nursing stations with phone laughing and talking, same thing right in the OR rooms, so I give up. It is ridiculous. I think it is time for me to find another hospital or a company that will address these concerns because MQ will not do it. Mark my words. I think they are afraid of antagonizing the account. My opinion.

Have you maximized your IT usage by
using the compilation and merge glossaries and using the enrich feature? Start thinking in phrases rather than words, and visit the Production Talk board for more pointers to help maximize your usage of IT.
try splitting LD usage with 2
The last poster was right - it doesn't matter that you are calling in to hear a voice. Technically you are calling a computer to access that voice file, not actually talking voice-to-voice with someone, which they will say violates the terms and conditions. You can talk to some supervisor about what you are using it for and maybe can permission to keep using it for MT, but unless you have it explicitly in writing they can still get you at any time by cancelling your LD or (much worse) retroactively charging you. The magic number for that "alarm" is 5000 minutes a month. I split my LD with a regular ULD plan and Vonage. You can't have 2 different LD companies on the same phone line, so you either have to use 1 regular LD and some sort of VoIP (such as Vonage, but there are others), or you have to have 2 different phone lines, each with its separate ULD plan and then split up your phone time between the 2. It's a headache, I know.
internet usage
I have Comcast and have never heard anything like that. My internet is basically used 24 hours a day! I get on at 4:00 AM and work on and off all day, my husband is on when I am not, and when my son gets out of school he is on until about 1:00 in the mornig each day. I would think that would be excessive if anybody's was...
Hyphen usage in the following
arthroscopic report: crabmeat-appearing cartilage Yes? shovel-like basket forceps ?
air card usage
Great that Sprint offers that. I do know on my account with Verizon there is unlimited usage, unlimited area. So I guess as well it goes to show that different companies offer different packages and most likely for different areas, depending on competition. Hope you find one that suits you, but make sure that you get the name, ID# , etc. of every person you talk to. Makes it a lot easier if you have to go back for whatever reason to them. Also, Verizon offers an antenna that you can hook to a window with suction cups, etc., so be sure to ask whoever you talk to if they offer any accessories at the time of sign up and if they can throw those in for free.
comma usage
QA is correct; the commas do belong there, and it would be wrong to omit them. The first comma is a series of adjectives; the other comma is to separate two conjoined sentences.
laptop usage
I am considering purchasing a laptop to use mainly outdoors this summer so that my soon to be 4 YO twins can play outside while I am working. I already have a Verizon air card so that shouldn't be a problem. There is a place here that sells used laptops and new ones and they are awesome IT folks so I am going to talk with them more about my needs on the tech end. What I am looking for here is if anyone has any suggestions on a setup of the laptop itself and a separate keyboard and mouse, i.e. What to sit them on while I am working? I would like to find something either weatherproof that I may not have to move if it is heavy or something that i could at least roll around to bring back in the garage or something when I am not using it. We have pretty level ground where I will be at. TIA for any suggestions. Oh, and have a wonderful summer!
I used to do that until it killed me almost! I now do QA.
I did it many years though and with 99% accuracy. You go girlfriend and do it while you can. :)
Tried it, nearly killed me. Unless you want to be
tied to your desk 24/7, not see your family and then if you do you're too tired and cranky to enjoy each other, have no other life, don't mind a messy house, etc. I wouldn't do it.
You just cannot be productive working this much and especially if all 3 formats are different, plus you'll have to learn new docs, etc., so you will actually be working more hours and making less money, not to mention the stress. You might could do it for a couple of weeks until you could get a feel for what jobs you like best, but any more than that and it is just too much.
You have obviously never been heavy.
It is not a matter of LETTING yourself get fat. Some people are overweight because of genetics, some because of over eating. You remind me of my ex-husband, who has never been heavy in his life -very narrow minded. Keep that attitude about it and as punishment it will catch up with you. There are far better words to use rather than FAT.
question about computer usage...sm
Hey, y'all! 
Do y'all let your kids/husband/family use your work computer when you're not using it? I do, and so far haven't had any problems, but I am just wondering if this is a good idea! 
question about computer usage
I let them use it but I am on it so much that they really don't have much of a chance. The kids are in college so have to watch the porn sites. LOL
Sue
I guess that would depend on the usage. sm
I worked with a gal once who literally pounded and stomped her foot pedal. The hospital replaced it twice in 6 months. After the second time, she was told she would have to pay for her own. I'm easy on mine and have had it for 10 years.
Pay for amount of usage -- might not be bad idea
Phone bills used to be like that, -- shows my age. I say sometimes I think it would be nice that those that use the most pay the most,. I have my cable TV on at the most 2 hours a day and yet I pay the same as those that watch 14 hours a day. Just like we get paid on the production of work we do, maybe we need to pay for the amount of usage on certain items.
comcast cap on usage official
http://biz.yahoo.com:80/ap/080828/comcast_internet_cap.html?.v=2
Also - new vs old Sprint for unlimited usage sm
Any new Sprint accounts as of 11/2008 are subject to the 5GB cap. From what I am understanding, accounts created before then say that they can throttle your speeds, terminate service, or charge overage fees for going over 5GB but so far have not really done so.
sprint limited usage
Do you work more than your 5GM? I just wondered since I am thinking about getting a card. I think Verizon and ATT do the same. My daughter has 5GM on her cable and she went over once, but they did not charge extra.
Thanks a lot.
Get to a Dr. ---my mom had this and it was CHF--it killed her quick-
get checked out.
I tried it last week and it almost killed me
I tried a 5:30 to 9:30 for one company, noon to 4 for another - and squeezing the other work in between those two times - and I was stressed to the max. If the companies can give you work 24/7 and you can work your own schedule - and it can vary - I think you could do - I just had down time and unpredictable times when doctors would submit work - and no could do!!
MQ sure is top-heavy isn't it? Wonder if that's where are raises are
and why they have to put them on-hold for awhile?
I'm trying heavy towels next sm
for my bedroom windows. Seven clips for each towel, two towels per window so no cutting and costs 36.00 for 3 windows. Walmart wanted 20.00 a set for one window and I would have to cut and re-hem them. Hey, I figured if they didn't look right I wouldn't be out anything since I could use them for baths and wouldn't need to return them. Anything to keep out the drafts. I think it looks fine. Of course my son told me I was a redneck cheapskate, so I told him if he didn't like it that he could finance the purchase of "real curtains" himself. He decided they were fine.LOL
Be careful. If you were a heavy
PRD user, you will be disappointed with Autocorrect. Also, Autocorrect is not a stable program and may crash if you go over 12000 terms in it.
I see all the postings about phone usage and I'm confused. sm
Are you talking about a long distance service you need to use a C-phone? Or are they questioning the use of your DSL connection?
Sorry, but you are wrong....not familiar with usage of apostrophes?

pit bulls killed Maltese
I am so sorry about your puppy. I saw a pit bull attack a German shepherd in our off-leash park. The owner showed up right after the police -- I and the shepherd's owner were screaming, "Call 911" -- and he gave a fake name and address. He had another loose pit bull, too. Then another of my dog-walking acquaintances said she saw a pit bull kill a dog in that same park and the owner then proceeded to kill the pit bull by bludgeoning him/her. I read that one of every two dogs killed at our animal shelter is a pit. I have a neighbor who drove 1000-1500 miles, to a breeder's place in California, to get a pit bull to protect his wife, that the breeder claimed was completely gentle, just looked scary.
second job killed me on taxes, so I found a job
that was just money in my pockets without having to claim it - an extra $600/week. Did it until I burned out, which wasn't long - 8 weeks. But it definitely helped!!!!
I would go with vinyl. We have tile now and I think it killed my dog. -sm
She slipped and fell on it when she slopped her water. I almost did too. She could hardly move. I think she might have broken some ribs. At the least they had to be bruised. It was actually my husband's cousin's dog so he took her to the vet and they put her to sleep on me. The vet said she was in severe pain. She was my little buddy. I never had an animal that loved me so much. (And I've always been a cat person.)
Tile is very slippery, hard, and cold too. I found the vinyl a lot easier to clean. Our tile is a mess. It cracked, the grout is dirty even though it was sealed. It's mostly because of the dogs that it's so yucked up. I can't stand going over by the front wall. It's soooo cold there, but I'm really intolerant to cold.
Our vinyl lasted a lot longer and was more comfortable than the tile. Not to mention, we had to cut all the doors besides.
Pit bull dogs killed my lab
About 2 a.m. my husband let our two dogs outside to do their business. Our dogs have squeezed out under a spot under the fence before ane we have put big rocks, a pedestal, etc. in the hole and barricaded the gates, etc. My lab, Shadow, is 1.5 years old and 75 pounds. My mixed dog, Flash, is also around 60 pounds. They apparently got out and got separated. Flash found his way back to the front door and my husband woke me up and said Shadow was missing. We proceed to go through the neighborhood for two hours looking for Shadow. Eventually, we go out the back gate (it is very overgrown and wooded) and two pit bulls come up through the woods and attack Flash. My husband and I are throwing rocks everything we can get ahold of and my husband manages to get the dogs off of Flash.
Long horrific story short, Shadow was killed by these monsters and was found by my husband and a police officer in the woods not far from our back gate. Flash survived. These could have been someone's children. Animal control had been called three times this week on those dogs. We called the police and animal control and the dogs are to be picked up today. We live in the middle of a city and our dogs spend 90% of their time inside. These were our "children", as we do not have any children.
I just wanted to let you know about these types of "pets". Google "labrador" and Google "pit bull" and tell me which one you think is a better choice. These people breed these monsters and teach them to attack. It is a wonder that my husband or myself did not get attacked in the process. Please do not let your children around these animals. It is not safe.

Who do U think killed JonBenet Ramsey?
I think her parents did it...
ever killed a fly or a mosquito? they live and
breathe, too, but they are pesky little anoying things. And no, I don't think the killing of thousands of dogs in China was right. It was despicable. But you can't let this thread get carried away by stating that no living breathing thing should ever be killed. JMO.
Pit bull dogs killed my lab
Thank you for your messages. I have read every one and I can see the point of each. I am trying to deal with this the fairest way I know how, but I am heartbroken and do not want anyone else to have to deal with this kind of thing.
Thank you for responding. I really do appreciate every one of your messages. OP
he hasn't actually said, "i killed her." He has only stated, "i was with her when she d
i think he is totally obsessed with the case. whether he did it or not, i am not sure. he can't give details?? the puzzle i am not fitting is the 118,000 ransom note that patsy new about. he has admitted it was a hostage gone wrong. i am wondering if maybe somehow he and patsy worked together on this one and now the reasoning it is coming out since patsy is no longer here. he lived in Georgia where they did but jonbenet was a baby at that time. it states that were vaginal abrasions but no semen? maybe that was a cover up to make it look like an intruder but they kinda left out an item called semen to make it real. makes me wonder if her hymen was intact. he is saying he drugged and raped her but yet autopsy says no drugs in her system.
If only air conditioning killed fleas!! No way!!
I rescued 2 kittens about 6 months ago, and they blessed my house with love and fleas!! I wasted 6 months using Frontline on kitties and dogs - forget it! Infestation crisis! I finally had the sense to switch to Advantage and its a miracle. Much less expensive than Frontline, and way more bang for your buck!! After the initial application of Advantage on 2 cats and 3 dogs, just had to reapply after 2 weeks, and now we are on top of things. No more fleas, though I will continue to use for months more. I hate using this toxic stuff, but my dogs are flea allergic. Nearly killed them. I would give Advantage a shot once just to make sure you didn't miss any fleas. And we keep our house frigid - doesn't bother them one bit. In fact, I picture them laying around in floor cracks and furniture, on little flea lounge chairs with pina coladas!!
Nope...not top heavy at all, pudgy!
1500 managers/execs at the top
8600+ MTs on the bottom
I'd say they need to lose a few pudgy MTs from the bottom! LMAO
Is this the one with a heavy "suthern" drawl?

Is anyone out there that is heavy truly comfortable with their body? sm
I have had a struggle with weight my entire life. As we speak now I am on Weight Watchers. I don't want to be model thin because I know that is never happening and some people aren't made to be that way. I am tall, an inch from being 6'. Before when I look at pictures I am thinking "Hey, I was not so bad. I DID carry my weight well." But during those times I thought I was horrible. Now, just topped the scale to 300 and I am scared to death! In the past year, since working from home and being depressed, I have put on an easily 50 lbs. I weigh more than I weighed with being 9 months pregnant with my son.
Anyway, I know for my health I need to get my weight down. But the question is - if you are heavy, how do you feel good about yourself and your body, enough to let that stress go so you can focus on other things in life? This consumes my every thought. Sometimes I think I need to see a psychiatrist to get this matter resolved.
I pray daily and ask God to help. I feel if I can learn to have a better self image of myself that I CAN conquer this goal and lose the weight.
Tips please....I don't look at other heavy women as ugly and fat. A lot of people I couldn't imagine being thin, yet they look great! I just wish I could picture myself that way.
BTW - in the almost 6 years my husband and I have been married, he has NEVER seen my naked, even when I wasn't so heavy. It is always "give me the covers, turn out the lights" and never intimate without clothes on. I want real intimacy. I want to feel good about myself. How do I achieve this while in the process of losing weight?
