Some of these sound like weights, though I'd love to be 130 again!--- nm

Try Switch. I can convert sound files. I love it. It has

And have you had your roof collapse because
there was a heavy wet snowfall during the night that was not expected? How about your doors frozen shut so you can't get out. My husband often sleeps in the barn at night during a hard winter so he can take care of the animals so they do not get hurt or that they do not have problems when calving. We do things for ourselves. We have to walk along the path of the power lines with ropes thrown over them to knock the snow off so they don't break from the weight of the ice and snow. We have all learned to use snow shoes to stay safe in these storms.
Do you know what 30 below zero with 40 mph winds is.
Kent State 70's - roof top sniper?
The only murders I remember from Kent State in the 1970's were by National Guardsmen who murdered students that were protesting the Vietnam War. When did the sniper killings happen?
My satellite for the Direcway is on my roof! It is bigger than..sm
my TV satellite, but the best place for the internet was on the roof! I have never had any trouble or "slow" times with it. I have worked through ice, rain, snow...you name it and it has always loaded quickly and with no interuptions. If you have no other ways for high speed, I would recommend the Direcway dish. We have nothing else offered where I live. It is satellite or dial up. Files that would take 1/2 a day or more are now loaded in as little as 5-10 minutes! Also, I have worked for three different companies with my satellite and have never had any security issues and have never had to purchase additional software to make it secure. Cost to me was 600 up front and then 59 a month.
Can't be just 3, but Fiddler on the Roof, Working Girl, and Wiz of Oz are up there! nm

RAIN, RAIN GO AWAY. PLEASE!!!
ARRRGGGGHHH!!!! It has been raining on and off since Friday. Every half hour, a downpour. We got 6 1/2" yesterday alone and it has been raining cats and dogs all night and every hour or so today. We supposedly are supposed to get 2 more days of this. 
There are people that are being evacuated from their homes, people being rescued from their cars, homes are getting flooded, roads closed, and river rescues...
We are lucky. The underground springs only washed out our driveway and the small creek turned into a raging river and flooded our storage trailer, but I feel really bad for the volunteer firefighters. They are getting called out left and right.
On top of this, there have been fires and now the electric is going on and off. PLEASE, someone wave their magic wand and stop this. We are waterlogged.
(Just had to get this off my chest). Thanks for listening.
rain
 I didn't realize y'all were getting that much, I pray it stops soon! We are having 100 degree DRY days; can't there be a happy medium? Good luck to you!
ཽ Mustang, pine green metal flake, black roof. Got it used from my dad. High school. nm

Np. Take a rain check...ya never know :-)
Still around 80 here in Illinois, but we are finally getting rain!
It hasn't been this dry here for 130 years. Had our first t-storm in 2 months.
every day come rain or shine (and no taxes to pay) NT

I just hope some of the rain comes up to VA, it has not rained
trees are dying, leaves are falling early (started coming off in droves about 2 weeks ago), ground is rock hard......maybe some slight bit of good can come out of it if those that just need some rain get it.
Lots of wind, rain from Alberto -
The year went by F-A-S-T! Getting lots of bad weather from Alberto. My satellite is going in and out - no internet, no work. Think I'll take a nap!!
Not just high temps every day but no rain in nearly 2 months where I am!
It was 109 here yesterday with the heat index! A hot, gusty wind was blowing so hard that from inside I thought surely it must be raining, but it was the trees swaying, their dry leaves rustling. Corn crops here are a total loss, and I hear cotton is not far behind. Someone do a rain dance, please!
Sunny and 45 in Randleman, NC...chance of rain today though.

We had some storms with heavy rain yesterday but did not make a dent
in the dryness. The past few years we have been saturated with it raining constantly. Last year we were 40 some inches over the norm for rain at one point. This year dry as a bone and hot as heck. The little bit you get through the thunderstorms has not made a dent in our need for rain. The river is low.
The weather pattern is so strange.
Monsoon FINALLY hits Arizona. Microburst winds & rain.
t
Wow, we are having one heck of a thunder and lightening storm from the heat, finally started to rain
some.....gonna hit 105 here in VA (near Richmond)....yikes! Hope we don't lose power, have 1 stand fan and 1 window fan if power does go (have a generator) but still, way to little for such heat. Our poor AC is gonna blow (along with the electric bill). 
Has anyone disconnected the internal sound card and replace with another sound card?
I am having problems with my sound on one of my computers. Several different ExText program have been on it so I don't think it is the program and the sound is just now as clear as on my other computer. Has anyone switched (disconnected the internal sound care and replaced) to a new sound card? Did it make a difference.
Everyone on this board is so knowledgeable, I really appreciate you. You have helped me many times.
You do sound FAT, but you don't sound RICh.
Go live in Iraq or something.
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.
Yep that's it, 4000. Love, love love the zoom
But I feel like a dork typing...every time I try to type But it is coming out as Nut!
Blasted cold out today. It was 104 degrees last week, but it's 40 degrees today with rain.
However, I do like cozy days like today when I don't have to go anywhere. I'm done working, the house is clean, there's chili on the stove for dinner already, and I'm just putzing around. I think I'll go bake some jalapeno cheese bread to go with the chili.
I love it too - love doing my nails 5 hours a day and staying awake
Love NOT getting paid while sitting doing my nails too. It's a real turn on.
I tell all my friends to try it -- sit in front of your computer while you have no money to pay your rent and instead do your nails, you get a real buzz down in the pit of your stomach.
Also LOVE LOVE ESCRIPTION and make good money but...
Can I ask how you sit there for 8 hours. Lately, I'm having a motivation problem. When I focus, I can rack up the lines, but lately, I get so easily distracted. My mind wanders and I struggle to get my lines. Any tips on how you stay productive who do you work for?? I work for Transcend.
People either love it or hate it. I personally love it
but I know a lot of people say you cannot make any money on it and will not work on it. I do okay. I'm obviously not getting rich but I am making a living. I found it easier than Dictaphone and faster such in downloading and uploading job and you only have to log on one system and not like Dictaphone where you have to log onto the VPN and then log onto the program. It's always worth a try, but yes, the biggest complaint I hear is that no one can make a living and the cpl isn't that great.
I went back in house and love it. I love not being
secluded. I was working in my PJs, less organized and feel much better now that I get up and dress for work and see people (even those in traffic aren't so bad anymore). I find that I have more of a life now, and my family says that I spend more time with them now.
Working at home served its purpose for a long time; I was ready to go out into the world again now that I have no little ones at home.
BD WONG! I love him! I love all CSI and Law and Orders!
I am so addicted. I actually schedule my job and family around the shows LOL.
Love love love my chair
The arms can be lowered so they won't be in your way, I don't know about the tilt limiter. But I bought my off ebay about 6 years ago and can't do without it. No I do not think you can find another chair that even compares to the aeron, changed my working life completely, no sore back or butt. You won't regret it, but you will if you go for a cheap imitation.
it does sound like a lot of
racil feelings are coming out in this thread...and that is a shame.
I know! You all sound like me
We might have to start our own MT group --the morning, noon, and night MTs or something like that.:)
I know your time is scarce so won't hold you. Just have to come here to give my ears a break from the dictation but back to work I go...
you sound like a 2 and 3 yr old
playing house
It does sound bad, but I think
We have these things going on all the time around us, but we just hear more about them now. And it seems since I have been watching Nancy Grace that there are many more unsolved murders and teens missing.
This may sound very odd...
but have you tried rubbing heated Castor Oil on your sore joints?
I know. It sounds strange. My mother has severe arthritis and she read that "somewhere" and tried it and now she swears by it.
Just trying to help.
Ohh, I like the sound of that lol Tell me more.
How do we find these hospitals?
You can still have that sound!...sm
You can download a free program and choose the sound you want your keys to make! They even have tap dance that my 11-year-old stepdaughter loves!

I think it's a trial program, but I like the clickity click so much that I may purchase it. This was posted under the production category because it seems to make you type faster. It helps me with my rhythm I think.
NEED TO SOUND OFF!!
First, please don't think that I don't believe in helping others because I DO. What I can't stand is for those you try to help to just take with no appreciation and then turn around and harm those in our community who try to help them.
Just before Christmas while watching the news the top story was of an elderly man who worked doing custodial work at a local hotel. He was severely beaten and left for dead one night by 4 young males just because he asked them to quit tearing down the hotel's Christmas decorations. Now when I say left for dead, I mean left for dead. This man is still in the hospital and is still unrecognizable. His doctors have said that he will need countless surgeries to rebuild his face ENTIRELY and will need 50 or more screws to hold it together. Last night it broke that 2 of them were in custody (turned in by family members) and they picked the other 2 up today. What is do disturbing is at least 1 of the 4 males is a Hurricane Katrina evacuee that had come to our city for shelter and assistance.
It is acts like this that make us weary about who we help and how we do it. The beating of an elderly man is bad enough by itself but then to tell us it was someone who came to us for shelter and help responsible is just appauling.
I apologize for any typos but it is late and I am tired. I just needed to sound off before I try to sleep.
They both sound better than
any doctor I've heard. "Living my life like it's golden..." :)
You sound exactly like me. My mom is
pretty much a workaholic, self image totally tied into her accomplishments, and I vowed I wouldn't do that to my kids either. I'm torn often though as of course I've got other personal ambitions, having some of my mom in me I guess, but I just can't imagine not being there for my kids.
That said, short of being some sort of consultant or having your own accounting business or something like that, I'm not sure what else a person could do to have this kind of flexibility.
Oh, my! You sound like me!!! . . .
I say it over and over again . . . VERIFY. Do not transcribe what you THINK you hear. If you don't know it with CERTAINTY, VERIFY it!!!!!
I try to be tactful and kind, but when the same things are done day after day, it isn't easy to be "nice." I know sometimes I am rather short and to the point, but when some don't learn and don't change anything It becomes very, very frustrating.
I could fill a book with the not-so-funny errors I see daily.
Thanks! It does sound like fun. nm

You sound just like me, always know where everything is,
am the only one who can find things even if others look, and certainly don't ask, just do it myself. :)
How does this sound for QA?
I'll only be doing QA on each person for 2 weeks. They offered $5.00 per MT and then a $25 bonus when they graduate from having to pend items to me. I'm also training and get $10 per person, which is fine with me because I can train 10 people at once. Any feedback is appreciated!
You don't sound old...
saying everything I was thinking...thank you! It's a job, plain and simple...go, do your work, go home, and forget about it...Life's way too short to stress over this...God bless!
Do you know that sound well?

you sound like me
my dog goes with me too, numerous places. He is fun to have along and it all goes away until I come back to sit down and work again,but I feel a little relieved. I always keep my eyes and ears open for other opportunities.

Can you provide more info. on Sound Medical Transcription? Do they have a website and/or how to contact them? Are they flexible? Thanks!
You sound like me...sm
I have been an MT for a year now. I do clinic but I did acute care for a couple of months and then the account got real slow and they put me back on clinic. I liked clinic a lot better. It is a lot easier. But it is good for you to do acute care because you are getting a wide variety of experience. My acute care account had tons of dictators on it. The only thing to do is keep at it. Or you may want to find another job with easier dictators. I am not the fastest typer either. But the only thing to do is hang in there and everyone says you will get faster and faster and you will learn more and more of the words you are having to look up. I do the clinic and only have 3 dictators and they are really good dictators. That is what I was offered and I have been doing that same clinic a year now. I really like it. But right now even on clinic I only do 100 or a little more than 100 an hour of lines. My friend told me she started out slow but she said you will keep picking up the speed.
What exactly are these? Is the sound better...sm
than regular headsets?
Sorry about your mom. You sound like
