of what the ideal male and female should look like. they are both jokes at this point. neither to be taken seriously. sad how hollywood dements the brains of the narcissistic into thinking they are something they are not.

What does Angelina see in Brad??
He's so babyish and effeminate.
i used to like brad until angelina. what's up with that. she is CRAZY as in NUTZ
Can't forget image of Angelina lip kissing her brother for an extended period of time and then there was Billy Bob and the vial of his blood she wore around her neck. I just think Brad might be crazy by association.
Your taste runs to slender effeminate boys. That's the way it is and how Jude Law
makes a "living" as well as Justin Timberlake. There are those who aren't attracted to manly men and enjoy seeing a pretty boy. BTW, Toby Keith has some excellent tight jeans and long legs and I don't see doughboy but it is relative if you prefer the looks of Jude Law/Justin Timberlake/Leonardo DeCaprio. And he appeared w/o his hat on many times. Not bald by any stretch like Garth Brooks. But having said that, Garth Brooks, dough-boy and balding was hot in his day.
something about angelina...
Doesn't seem sincere. Her humanitarianism seems very forced, like she's trying too hard. Its difficult to watch. I remember princess Diana, and what she did seemed very natural, like it came from the heart, when she worked with the AIDS patients. Anyone see this? I know this subject has been stomped into the ground, but I just saw a clip of them arriving in another third world country. She just seemed to be playing a role when she's helping these people, I dont know.
Angelina seems like a man stealer, she just shows up
home. She doesnt seem to have a personality either. Oh well, when you're that gorgeous who needs a personality? As far as men aging well, I think Al Pacino looks better now than he did back when he first came out. He had those bags under his eyes, maybe he's gotten plastic surgery. Other bad agers: John Travolta (he looks like he ate the old John Travolta from Saturday night fever) and Nicolas Cage, an old crush of mine, awesome actor but seeming a bit hairless and bloated these days.
Have you seen Brad act lately?
I don't think he is a rocket scientist.
I used to like Brad Pitt. Now, not at all.
I can't stand Angelina Jolie, either, but I didn't like her long before the Brad Pitt thing.
Brad Pitt is not bisexual....just FYI...jes saying..
to each his/her own 
I agree about Brad Pitt, except he's not aging well...
Aren't men supposed to get better looking as they age? Maybe he was too beautiful.
It's that yellow hair that makes Brad look old.
Horse Whisperer. He and Newman both are classics that will ALWAYS be hunks in my eyes!
Prince Charles or Brad Pitt?
What do they wear underneath those kilts? Boxers or briefs?
Brad Pitt, sushi, and Corona..
3 of my favorite things...yum yum
But where are the Brad Pitts, Susan Sarandons, etc.etc.
They were some of the first to stand up and beg for money for tsunami victims. Where are they today?
Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom!

Oh Yeah! Brad Pitt's got NOTHING on your husband!
What a guy! 
He really "took my breath away." 
Thanks for sharing with all of us. 
Brad Pitt - twig and berries - love it
Brad Pitt, George Clooney. Cool guys who don't take themselves too seriously.
I watch them even in their bad movies but has anybody seen Brad Pitt in one of his first movies A River Runs Through produced by Robert Redford. OMG, he is a beautiful man.
George Clooney is cool and not bad to look at. Not full of himself either.
you know as couples go, angelina and billy bob were perfect skanks for each other. perfect!
i suspect they may get back together because they are both so skanky no one else can keep up. that is unless she decides she wants her brother more which is skankier.
scary part is she is adopting kids. skank-o-ramas never last. it still diminishes brad though.
i heard rumors he was dumb pretty boy and i guess angelina adds credibility to the rumors.

I feel your pain. I had been providing excellent service, never increased rates, always met TAT (usually supposed to be 48 hr, but most times office mgr would call and needed it in 24 -- a huge amount of dictation). As you did, I always put them first, above everything else. Well, the office manager decided to start transcribing it herself, and she did not even tell me that she was going to do it. I waited a little while (longer than I should have) hoping she was just trying to pay for Christmas (she had actually done that before) and I finally had to do something else. The something else did not work out either, and I am lucky to have what little work I do have right now. Meanwhile, she now has two full-time paychecks (yes, this was a full-time paycheck for me). It is a good thing that although I was making full-time money on their account (working 2 days per week) I never let go of my other work, but I still may wind up in the big "B" court as my options now are few, and I stupidly took care of things I needed to with credit cards while waiting for her to return the work to me. I also knew that she was going to call me spur of the moment wanting me to do the work when she was ready for a break/vacation, which she did, but I was unavailable to her as I had picked up the something else by then. I just wish that I had never heard of being an MT. As much as I love the work, the business is awful.
what kind of dog?

What kind of KVM do you have? -sm
I have heard that if you get a cheap one you'll have problems with the screen freezing up when switching back and forth. I'd really like to get one where you can use a hot key to switch back and forth. Can you please tell me what brand yours is?

of sin, which is what this is, is not progressive or open-minded. What it is is sin. Go back and read the story about Sodom and Gomorrah and see if you understand then. Granted, there are other kinds lots of sins in this world also, but call this one what it is.
Usually those kind of
licenses are only for one computer. You can buy licenses for multiple computers from their websites.
A different kind of job
I have no idea how these things fall into my lap and don't how this will go but just met and got offered to do "formatting and editing" of finished documents for a Waste Recovery Company -- fancy name for garbage and recycling company. This manager has to do long reports, handouts, employee manuels, etc. and just wants to type the report and all I do is edit -- not grammar or punctuation -- use a consistent outline form, do title pages, do headers and footers, make sure pages are correctly numbered for $25 an hour. She wants me to make it have "eye appeal and look pretty." She spends hours formatting and hates it and so I am going to try it. Decided I had nothing to lose to try. Depending on how fast I am probably not more than 6 to 12 hours per month so we will see how it goes. But she did say if it worked out well, they have several other branches in Montana, Idaho, California and they might be able to use me more at those facilities also that have to do the same reports. So guess I am branching out somewhat. Just as one door closes, another open as had one of my most profitable account, suddenly retired due to ill health. So was thinking of looking for another account when I got this call. SOmething different at least.
you are MY kind of MT
but I might have done this far sooner than you - I have almost zero tolerance for this cr____pola.
Would love to see this doc in court trying to prove a CHIMPANZEE (or even a sharp HUMAN typist) could do what we do...
LOL
Thank you very much for your kind help!!!
:-)))
Can someone tell me what kind of (sm)
foot pedal works with winscribe? I've got two Infinity wave pedals - they don't. Any help is appreciated!
That was kind of like what I was saying before
Right to work states do that to people.
However, I am sorry you lost your job after all of that. It would have been easier if they had just told you the truth in the first place.
Yes ma'am. It's kind of cool actually..............
you can see everything they're doing and once they're done, they're gone.
what kind of person are you?????
"don't dog the people looking for your daughter and investigating the people who may have seen her last. "
okay, well maybe she feels that not enough is being done. I mean, she did just lose her daughter. Imagine that feeling. I can't. I am quite sure if it were me, no one COULD be doing enough. I would probably be on everyone's case until she were found. Also, are you dense? OF COURSE they are going to investigate the people who have seen her last. HAHAHAHAHA. I cannot believe that comment. Who else would they investigate??????
As far as the rest of your post, I don't believe it even deserves acknowledging. Your thoughts speak for the kind of person you are.
What kind of advice do you want?
It's a rough life raising your kids and running a household by yourself while you worry about your husband's safety. The kids can sense your stress, so they act up as well. Then when your husband gets home from wherever he's been, you have to readjust to having him around again. A lot of it also depends on what branch of the military he wants to get into, as well as active duty or guard/reserve. If you're active duty, you never know where you're going to be sent to next. It could be somewhere nice, or it could be a foreign country with mandatory boarding schools for your kids. People think that military families have it so easy, but the military pay and benefits aren't great compared to what we could make if we moved to a big city. Military housing has a lot of problems, and the old housing development with the leaking foundations, high water table, and backed up sewer lines is still being used by young military families 25 years after we lived there. I could get into more details, but every time I do, people here think they know more about my life experience than I do, so I won't.
what kind of keyboard
Just curious, what type of keyboard do you type on? I use the Microsoft erogonomic. I absolutely love it! I find that if I type on the traditional keyboards my hands hurt. Also, do you wear gloves for carpal tunnel protection? I wear gloves and have found this helps me tremendously. I have been doing transcription for about 15 years.
What kind of software is best?
Thanks.
thanks for the kind words - it does help...:)
I know lots of places are hiring, but I don't have enough experience for most of them and am afraid to jump from the frying pan into the fire....
Well, it kind of depends. SM
Most of the pain management I've seen strongly encourages other modalities, depending on the patient and the condition. Exercise (swimming or aqua therapy are popular), stationary bicycle, walking, physical therapy (massage), acupuncture, sometimes counseling to help adjust to the chronic pain and accept it better, diet - an overall healthy lifestyle. Whatever the patient can do to make them feel better.
However, pain medication is still a fairly normal component - it's just watched and managed carefully with an emphasis on using it appropriately.
Unfortunately, even though our understanding of pain has grown over the years, sometimes all they can do is try and medicate it.
It depends on what kind of (sm)
disability you are talking about. SS will not consider any type of disability unless you've been off work for a year.
What kind of lip balms are you using?
Some of them can actually CAUSE chapped and swollen lips. Skip the mentholatum and other additives. Try just plain old Vaseline petroleum jelly instead of chapsticks to see how it works. None of that Carmex junk either. Also, monitor your behaviors to make sure that you're not licking, biting, or any other habits on your lips. I used to get a callous on my lower lip until I realized that when I was nervous or stressed, I chewed my lower lip. Drink plenty of water, skip the day-long bath of sugar or artificially sweetened sodas. If these suggestions don't help, then I would see a doctor.
what kind of info are you looking for?
nm
What kind of doctor.
I used to type ENT docs who treated this condition. I would definitely not go to an oral surgeon. They deal with surgery. You want your condition treated not surgically fixed.
OTI is just that kind of place. nm
x
I have. No biggie. It was really kind of SM
fun for me, because I got to watch it. Amazing to the doc AND me because he couldn't believe what he was seeing. My symptoms weren't even that bad but woweee did I have horrible reflux.
What kind of pedal is it?
USB or 15-pin? If it's 15 pin, you'll probably have to set it up. If not, you might try going to the Express Scribe website to see if there's a patch to play the certain file you're trying to play. They'll probably have technical information regarding Olympus footpedals there as well.
That's kind of standard, isn't it? I mean (SM)
every hospital and every MT company I've ever worked for, to be a full-time employee you had to account for 40 hours a week, either by working it, or taking PTO, unless you were covered under FMLA.
I think sometimes we expect even more flexibility working from home and forget the fact that working from home IS flexibility -- not having to go into the office, being in the comfort of our home (if we want our children or family around us, that is our option--not so in an office), etc.
The 40-hour expectation is very standard, in my experience. You have PTO to use for when you cannot make up your absence. My guess is they will offer more PTO with this new plan coming up.
Try not to panic or be upset. No one knows what the new plan will be. We will each have to decide if the new plan is what we need or not. If it isn't, thank goodness there are other companies to work for out there.
Please try to relax.
What kind of music? nm

Well that's mighty kind of you...
I am a hard worker so I think it just might...I just dread the learning curve...6 kids have fried my brains!!!! hahaa.
Seems like the best kind of drug to take...
when doing MT would be uppers like truck drivers use. Stay up all night and type really fast!
I kind of know how you feel....
My heart goes out to you....While my daughter is a lot younger at age 4 she has recently some bilateral hearing loss due to chronic ear infections and had to have tubes put in her ears. So far the hearing loss has not returned. It was a fight to have the surgery performed even though she was continuously getting infections and I finally had to switch doctors until I found someone who would perform the surgery but it was too late and she now has hearing loss. Then a couple of months later she was covered with hives and we couldn't figure out why. Finally narrowed it down to artificial food colors. Well that is in about everything. I have noticed a change in her since taking away all of her favorite foods (even though we've found a few substitutes at the health food store) but there is a definite depression factor even in a 4-year-old so I can imagine that it has to be multiplied many times over for a teen.
I previously worked for social workers for a children's center and there are definite differences between the bonds between kids and their counselors. Does your son like his? Trust him/her and want to see them? Maybe a different one would strike a better bond if not.
It sound like he was really enjoying school before and maybe I'm wrong but just needs a time of adjustment with his new sense of self.
If YOU need a shoulder would be happy to oblige...my thoughts are with you.
kind of on the same subject, but not really
Just an observation. The ONE good thing that came from Hurricane Katrina is the pet situation. After that, they made it where you could bring your pets shelters as long as they were in crates. I don't know if that will be the case everywhere from now on, but it did bring this to the public's attention, at least. Many people will not leave without their pets. I know I wouldn't.
And it is exactly this kind of attitude....sm
that will continue to keep MTs classified as clerical help. Until we start taking some accountability for our own professionalism, nobody else will sure recognize it!
'scuse me?? Before I get mad, is that some kind of jab?
