Okay, this makes sense.  So what about people who live near the poles who have extended hours of darkness?  Will they rule Alaska at being high risk?  I knew a woman who had lived there in the service and she said she did her gardening at 2 AM because it wasn't dark.  They adjusted. 

Personally, I work better at night and sleep better during the day.  I am sharp at night and can produce way more.  I can sleep deeply, restfully during the day but not at night.  I seem to be the opposite.  I've been this way since I was a kid.  Maybe I came out of the womb too late in the day!!!!

My neighbor retired from Magnavox forcefully when they left and went to Mexico.  He said there is a law that if a part is missing, they don't have to pay the import tax, so they purposefully ship their items with a knob missing!  It really ticked us off this happens.  It wasn't this administration that started this whole thing either..I won't get into a politics discussion because everyone's beliefs are their own, but just doing a little research will show it.

I also have an aunt whose husband retired from Ford and she said they got a letter if the company does go under, she will lose her little pension check and all her medical benefits.  I've seen these companies go under then suddenly appear again once they've stopped all former benefis, which is a crock IMO.  Seems like now it's back to the old way, everybody has to stay in the same house and everybody work just to get by. I don't know how minimum wage people make it.

One of us is just yanking everybody else's chain with this 'I am most wonderful and experienced MT but I don't speak it the language' lingo?  Come on, are we on Candid Computer? 

I just saw it tonight....FABULOUS!!  I admit I was skeptical because on Rotten Tomatoes (the website I go to see critics' notes first) it was falling and there's been ups and downs about it...AND because as much as I have always loved Tom Cruise he has really gone off the deep end in my opinion.

However, the movie was fabulous.  I remember the old black and white movie too.  Tom played his part incredibly; as did the little girl (forget her name); and Tim Robbins, too.  Really was something.

Go see it!

ok i would like to know on average (of course) how many mammo's and chest x-rays do ya type a day? 

so me typing about 30-40 mammos a day and lots and lots of chests...is this normal or what?????

Nuthin' personal... I'm only going on what AAMT BOS tells me to do, because I'm a tool.  Page 209 of 2005 AAMT BOS, 2-cm mass, 4-cm lesion, 4-1/4-inch scar, .38-caliber pistol, et cetera.

I've had this background "static" coming through my earbuds for years now, but just thought it was the quality of the .wav files.  When you said your speakers were to blame, (which is where my earbuds are directly plugged into), I plugged them directly into the computer and WOW!  That horrible buzzing/static is 100% GONE!    

So, thanks for sharing your misery because I would have NEVER thought to blame my crappy speakers!   

If you have teens, young adults (especially boys) and be able to carry on a conversation with them on a subject they like.  The kids hanging around here are always talking about it.  So, I actually watched the show one day and it's wild what they can do to a regular car

Try it out.

If you're really good at transcribing, it shouldn't be a problem to adapt.

No need for the waste of the space. Think of the paper it saves. Save a space, save a tree. :) Check out a new paperback and see how many have 2 spaces.

I transcribed a dictation earlier with the word salpingo-oophorectomy in it.  Now, this is not a new word for me, I have transcribed it many times.  The funny part is that later in the document the dictator said the word "chunks"...and then spelled it out!!!!  All I could do was laugh.  It just makes you wonder about their thought processes sometimes. 

I was shocked (very pleasantly surprised) to get an e-mail from my boss this weekend stating because I've mastered new skills and am always offering to work extra to keep our accounts in TAT, they are giving me a raise that will be effective on my next check for the last 2 weeks.  Wow!  I was trying to work up the courage to ask for a raise in June (1 year anniversary), but they offered me a raise first!  I've NEVER had a national offer me a raise in the past.  Cool, huh? :)

I do agree that you should go to one of the AAMT approved, more well known schools. I get sort of perturbed when everyone talks about how the other schools are crap. Some are, some aren't. I went to my local community college, and the training I received was excellent. I could pass tests left and right. However, it took me 5 months to find a job because I was totally on my own. The only help I got from my school was a "Good Luck" email. I should have done more research, and I probably would have chosen Andrews or M-Tec because of the name recognition that they carry with potential employers.

Most likely not.

Ray Nagin, Mayor of New Orleans, in a radio interview with Garland Robinette. 

I can't even begin to describe the love for his city, the desperation, heartbreak, and anger in his voice.  Talk about the captain going down with his ship.  He's not going anywhere.   He is my new hero.
