were just not up to the norm. Did everyone get local commercials during the 3rd quarter? We did and that's not usual either. Ah well, like with everything else, we look forward to next year anyway. Have a good one!

That was pretty funny - but I have to say that was the worst halftime show I have ever seen! nm

Janet's boob was a better halftime show than these old bags! nm

You have got to be kidding right!!?? That was the worst halftime show of all time! Never was a Stone
I am in the younger crowd - 34 years old, and would have appreciated Motown more than the Stones.
He looked older than dirt! I am a huge football fan, and the Janet Jackson malfunction was a better halftime show than the Stones. Sorry!
Yeah, but it doesn't show them at all.
There is nothing to drag! lol
I don't have an address bar either to type in a web address. The only thing it shows at the top is the little icons for stop, refresh, home, favorites, history, etcetera.
I e mailed the Oprah show about a year ago sm
I got an automated response and that was it. I have always loved Oprah, but she is into helping kids in other countries, not so into helping here.
Yeah, I earn 50k a year and I just bought a house for a buck!
Oh and I just got 25% of 28 million from a prince in Zimbabwe!
TV commercials
For a Friday laugh (we've earned it) has anybody seen the commercial where 2 people are in a rowboat, spring a leak, and she plugs the hole up with a Tampax?!! OMG
Commercials
I like the one where the cartoon adult male and female are talking while eating popcorn shrimp. All of a sudden, she says "Where are the kids"? They look down at the container of popcorn shrimp and start screaming. Funny in a sick kind of way. hehehe
commercials
Those commercials remind me of a bad trip on acid, glad to know others feel similar.
I don't like any commercials dealing with
gender, medical, racy or adult topics. I mean, really, when's the last time you saw a feminine product on TV and decided that you simply must run to the store right away to get you some? Cialis and Viagra? Come on, maybe E.D. was invented to give women a break for once in their adult lives. And all those pills being pushed by the manufacturers? Yes, let's go to the doctor and demand pills because we're all self-diagnosing.
gross commercials lol
This actually was a comedy routine about them, remember Balki anyone? Forgot the show but he was here in the US living with his cousin?
He did a comedy stint about his first nice, sit down dinner in America. He was having his boss & family over and wanted to do it just right, so he went to the grocery.
"Can you believe what you can find in America, they already sanitize your napkins, so all you have to do is put silverware on them and your table is set"..But he was having trouble with the spoon rolling off the "Sanitary Napkins". OMG thought I'd lose it. Then he added the gourmet jelly...KY jelly "it is what the state of Kentucky is famous for so it must be good"..that was a good but gross stint.
The best commercials are the ones you remember, for whatever reason.
There's so many commercials that are really good for some reason, but you can't remember the product, just the commercial. Ineffective to say the least.
The tampex commercial may be shocking, but you remember the product. That makes it in advertising terms, an excellent commercial. 
I didn't see it, just the commercials. It's scary and
several teens around here are addicted too. My niece actually had pics of my grandsons on it, I told her to get them off there because if someone walked up to my youngest grandson (4) and asked him if he wanted to go see (niece's name) that he'd go with them. It gives the creep looking for info enough info on anyone to be real hurtful. My niece tells how she's sick of playing games and is looking for real love. Just think about the creep reading that who finds her and offers her a lot of attention, she'll go to. I can't convince her how dangerous that all is.
You aren't alone. I am frequently mortified and embarrassed by commercials.
Pepto-Bismol's little song, Charmin, that Tampax commercial..ugh!
When I was a child I used to wonder what Preparation H was for because the advertisements never really said. I wish that was still the case!
If you can show proof you did this work for them, they then have to show they paid it in order
:+
i think it is incredibly gross. personal hygiene commercials are just gross anyway.
this one is stupid and gross.
love, love, love the show. hate american idol. this show is for real.
the only reason i entertained watching it was because of mark burnett and as usual he has such genious casting and editing. btw, don't know who anything about "metal" music but these performers make me like it. love marty and jd as performers. HATE JESSICA. susie is so nice and so emotional. it seems they all support each other and enjoy each others skills. regarding ty and bob marley, ty was excellent but he also lucked out on the song! bob marley was genious too and his music is very easy to listen to. i don't like 3/4 of what the others are given to sing but their performances make me love the music. dave navarro shines on this show, very gracious for the most part and letting the contestants down easy when they have to leave. he was great last night with brandon (?). sweet, sweet show. i am so impressed with everyone involved.
Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc. Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
to cowgirl - Last I knew, last year the job paid $25,000/year no taxes, etc.
The hospital was bombed about a year ago, but not a lot of damage, very minimal damage.

Yeah, yeah, that should be "your work..."
Nothing this year. We ALWAYS got a cool surprise in the past, but this year nothing. :-( nm

After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm
to pay him a cool 1 million dollars. You can check this out at the Medquist website. I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.
P.S. This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc.
Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.
I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.
Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.
Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
Not me, owed last year, and expect to owe this year- sm
or break even, had more expenses this year. Only owed $200 but still don't want to owe at all. Need to start doing estimated tax payments again so I don't owe! Guess I will get off my butt and do that this year.
Yeah, baby, yeah.
We are here for the long haul.
come on.. you cannot compare a 2-year-old and a 15-year-old

46/F I have a 9-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy.

Got $$$$ back last year but this year
I have to pay them, sold a property I never lived in but I had enough sense to set aside $45,000 so just waiting on them to send me my WT2s so I can get started.
I think this goes to show you that SM
when a person goes to another place with the proper attitude (respecting the culture already there, appreciating it and being open to new experiences) you can have a wonderful time.
I think sometimes we in the U.S. have such a need to fashion everything into OUR way of doing things it ruins our ability to appreciate different countries/cultures.
show
I love the show. I think the people learning to dance are very brave. I love George H. too! Looks like a lot of hard work and that it is definitely outside their comfort zone. Good for them!
This just goes to show you that when the
first letters are right and the last couple are right, the mistake is easily missed. No spelling police here, right!?!
It won't show up. it says
1. How much money did you make?
2. Send it to us.
Yes, I know how to show myself as
offline on instant messenger. Sorry, I misunderstood the post. That doesn't make someone stupid because they don't know how to, though. I had never even used instant messenger until about 3-4 months ago. It is a learning process and no one should ever be called stupid because they have not yet learned something.
New to the show
Only recently started watching this show. What is wrong with his leg and why does he pop all those pills?
was that the show with the...
Dumb guy and his *polyfidelity* mumbojumbo??? I just saw bits and pieces of it, but boy if that was my husband...well let's just say he wouldn't be my husband...or anyone's husband...for long! Whatta jerk! 
What a show!
That guy was the biggest peice of trash I ever saw. Sometimes it just blows my mind why people as stupid as him want to come on national TV. Does he not realize he is a complete and utter fool? His wife is not much better either. UGH - She is only staying for the children and that is a shame. Honestly, I didn't really see any love between them.
About the show
I think personally that Paula is a little flaky, nevertheless, I can say I didn't notice anything different from her last night. As stated below, Carrie started the show. It was just a regular show I thought. No exciting moments, other than that nasty Brenna going home. She was pouring that "get money" thing on really thick. Kinda came off pathetic IMO. Can't wait until next time!!
There are also MTs that don't have anything to show - sm
that feel they must tear down those that do, whether they ever show it off or not. Like people that feel they must scratch or ding new cars they encounter because they themselves don't have the money to buy such.
There are bad apples on either side of the coin. But regardless of whether we have reason to brag or not, it is best we conduct ourselves so that we care about others in the process.
It should show up now, sorry.
One can never have too many friends.........
:)
She is, it is her show, and...
it is meant to attract viewers. Which is obviously does. My son was on her show and she was VERY fair in her decision. We were all very happy with the outcome, not because he won but because justice was served!! and on a TV show no less!! 
She will just show up at the ER and noone will

Just goes to show you, all the
high-falootin' education in the world doesn't give you class. LOL
This is my new favorite show...
.
LOVE THAT SHOW
I can't wait to see it every week, big fan of INXS, and the reason why the performances are so good is because these singers were professionals to start with, what a great change from the Teeny Boppers of American Idol. Love Mig and JD. The show is like watching a mini concenrt and when Jordis sang that Bowie song last week, I watched it at least 10 times more on line. Glad to see someone else loves the show. Sadly it has not gotten good ratings, so much for class acts getting their just deserves in this fickle society we live in.
Not in my office, but just goes to show you that nothing is

especially when there's only bad stuff to show
I noticed that Shepard Smith on Fox (not considered a liberal news outlet) was not especially impressed with the government response to the disaster. He was desperately begging for help for people stranded for days on a bridge.
