    Diary of a Mad Black Woman -- Good movie.
    I thought it was so good.  I just went through an affair (my husband being the cheater, while I was pregnant), and she gave me such confidence.  I don't know, I just really liked the movie.  Thought it was great.
    Black widows are shiny black, females have red spot
    There aren't many males around. After the mate, the females eat them lol.

    We have black widows galore here in Calif. I actually keep frogs in my yard (provide ponds for them) and they have made a big impact on the insect population.

    Remember to always wear shoes (something I try to do).
    Therapy for what? Because I don't support any woman who spouts an idea because she is a woman?

    And you fall into the "therapy" or drug routine?  Why not address the issues.  You want women to support women no matter how ridiculous the idea is or you want to support a truth, no matter who tells it.  The rest of the "therapy" crap you post is BS.  You must know that by now.


    but on the same token (sm)
    the Aruban police completely botched the investigation in the beginning.  They questioned these guys, but let them go, in the car Natalee was last seen in.  The mom's first agenda should be to find her daughter, whether she is still alive or not, then take care of all the wrongdoings she feels were done.  We just need to pray for that family.  It's heartbreaking.
    by the same token... sm

    If the schools would train the new MTs properly, there would be no need for an apprenticeship program and no need to insult MTs (including newbies) with low pay. 


    I do not agree with AAMT, never have, never joined and never will.  I do not support them in any way, especially now after them having totally exploited the US MTs for years and ultimately slapped them in the face with the training programs for offshore TYPISTS who have no clue about the English language or any of its counterparts. 


    Supervisors are a token figure-head for the weak-minded
    who need guidance and approval. Why would anyone keep anybody who needed constant help on doing their job employed. I know my job and what is required. No one at this point in time can really advise me on what to do although as NEW supervisors come and go, they do give it a shot in order to justify their jobs. But they come and go and I stay. Buy a clue.
    Off-shore owned MTSO usually have a token US citizen as the front guy.

    Black lab here too,

    She looks black to me.

    She LOOKS black...
    But so does OJ Simpson, Michael Jackson (well, not since he bleached his skin)...
    Where is Black, MO?
    I'm a Missourian too!
    maybe she wants to be the woman.

    Seems to me, this is about those woman who only think they look like that...
    and unfortunately do not.

    Even young girls do this - I have seen young girls more and more, bellies out, cracks out (pardon me, do not know what else to call it- smile), and maybe 2 out of 10 have the bodies for it. The rest are overweight and have bulges and cellulite, etc.

    I think almost everyone would agree, if a woman can wear something (or nearly nothing) and look good, more power to them. If they do not have a body like a model, or even close, best to hide the cleavage in public, in my opinion...
    Done 2! Come on MTs....help this woman win!
    Staples inventors contest. Vote for Julie Savage.
    Can't we get this woman out of here?
    I would sooner see your Avon and candles! This woman has been over on MT Chat, now here, who knows where else. I don't even believe she is an MT. How could she be when she is so busy with her "company"? Can't we get these types of "free advertisers" off here? Makes me mad!  If fshe is free to advertise, then I think the rest of us should be able to, as well!
    Yep, that's right, it was to a woman.nm

    One woman actually said she (sm)
    spent so much time at the pediatrician's office, she KNEW she could do it.  NO KIDDING.  She really said that.
    She is more woman than you could ever-sm
    hope to be in your wildest dreams. What did she ever do to you anyway? come on, take my one on one challenge...make my day. lol
    Probably every woman on here has done the same or more
    than this person is saying she had to do in order to take care of grandchildren. Most women here work and take care of children every day. She asked did I have grandchildren like you just could not work and take care of them. I did - others have here also- no bashing- just truthful, sounds like a cop out to me and probably others here.
    Seems that woman
    had some issues. Okay ... I can see being a little irritated, but really! Your director had the right attitude, and now you have your funny little story you can share. : )
    black widows
    LOL, a creature of the underworld?  I sure hope you are kidding.  A black widow, as all spiders, are very much needed.  They eat other bugs.  Most spiders are harmless and black widows do not stray from their web very far.  You can put a black widow in your hand and it will not bite you unless you pushed its head down on your hand. 
    Black at wedding
    Black is stylish and I love it. I would suggest not wearing black stockings, etc. Do you have any bright colors you could add such as a cloth rose (very stylish)or some bright jewelry to offset the black. Try a thrift store for a bright bag or shoes. I just did that and found a pretty pink bag with black trim for a couple of dollars. That should offset the black. Just try not to go "totally black" but if you have to, so be it. Just wear a "smile" and have a great time! Life is temporary, enjoy it.
    Black Hole
    Hi - If you would care to email me personally I would be happy to speak with you. We strive to follow through on everything, and we know the importance of experienced MTs so we do try to make them happy with the account/accounts they are working on. Please feel free to email me.

    Thanks.

    dressing in black
    Don't worry about it. My sister wore black for 15 years when she was teenager and throughout her 20s; one of my nieces starting wearing black when she was in junior high. The niece is an RN and neither of them has ever done anything weird or satanic in their lives.

    Some people love black - personally, I avoid it like the plaque, don't even buy black shoes or purses.

    Try RealSimple.com. This is a marvelous website for anything you might want to know.
    Buy Nothing Day (Black Friday)
    movement started in the Pacific Northwest, so I celebrate Buy Nothing Day by buying nothing. 
    My mom used to do that (1970s) with a black wig - sm
    She would wear it a lot when my parents went out. She also had a fall of long black hair. I have them both now, though I don't use them, keeping them more for sentimental reasons now.

    I believe cottonmouths are black, though not sure on that - sm
    and copperheads have a distinct head as do most poisonous snakes (triangular/diamond shape). Copperhead bite is not fatal by any means and usually not even treated with any antivenom....dogs around here just get treated with antibiotics. Cottonmouths are very aggressive and from the sounds of it, it is not cottonmouth.
    Black character......
    means any black mark (typed character) seen on the page.  Sneaky way of saying you are not being paid for spaces - which just boggles my mind..........
    Obviously you're black, right? LOL

    So the criers should shutup too, then, right? Just let people get away with whatever they want and don't call them out for fear or stifling their "right" to freedom of speech when they spew hate.  Sure, and I was born yesterday and race is not an issue in America.  Wake up, it's alive and well, as we can see on this board.  How sad this rears it's ugly head here.  Surprised, nope. 


    She probably would not even know black strap as in
    molasses, she is from the ghetto and lack of education, as she cannot even spell her children's names…she says words like skrimps for shrimp, a funeral comes out fumeral, oh no just being on the edge of borderline competency.

    I had a problem with WinFax not working with several programs and freezing up.  I tried ColorFax and now do not have any problems. 
    No woman asks for it EVER
    A woman can be walking down the street naked, she is not asking for rape.  No woman ever wants to be raped.  Old ladies, young ladies, middle aged ladies get attacked and raped and sexually harrassed and murdered.  Women do not ask for this.  Until we put the blame where it belongs, on the perpetrator, not the victim, nothing will change.  You need some consciousness raising, me thinks.
    A woman I worked with ... (sm please)
    erased a tape of a day's worth of radiology reports. She pulled all the jackets (before PACS system) and took them to the rad. She apologized sincerely with a stiff upper lip. He did not say a word, read all the films again and life went on. She is now the lead MT and has been there for 15 yrs.
    You really need to get a woman in your life!

    And what do you consider an older woman?

    I can assure you that I'm not an older woman.  Thirty is not old.  I still get carded buying alcohol.  I've never bleached my naturally blonde hair either.  The clothes aren't skimpy.  I have full coverage with nothing hanging out.  I certainly don't shop in the plus or women sized departments either.  It's just a change from slob mode, which is the point I was trying to make.  Women will feel and look younger by taking a few moments to care about their appearance.  Try some trendier clothes, a new hairstyle, a touch of makeup.  Besides, if I was a fat, ugly, old lady as you're implying, troll, hubby would tell me.  He's the one who didn't like my "comfortable" work clothes to begin with.


    omg i know a woman who talks just like you
    and is just as much an a** and even her sunday school class doesn't want anything to do with her!!! hehehehehe talking about an ugly, stinky attitude!!! hehehe
    psycho woman
    You sound like a nice woman that just has lousy tastes in men. First of all, you need to get involved in a church. If you have a large one in your area, they typically have groups of people that are in your same boat or had been in a similar boat. Go there first, and seek their advice. and it would be very good for the kids to attend also.
    No. Owned by a woman.

    woman of the opposite sex
    That's hilarious! Thanks for the belly laugh. I needed it today.... LOL.
    I had to reply here to what the woman said
    That the radiologist would call the physician by phone and report the serious finding on the x-ray. HELLO: Most (or all) patient charts have an order to them in which patient medical records are to be distributed chronologicaly. I would think Medical Records Manager/personnel would be screaming for the hard copy of the report to be placed on the chart, to be reviewed by QA, Coding, etc. This woman sounds lazy.

    Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to

    change a light bulb?



    A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY?

    Because no one else in this house knows

    HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know

    that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit

    in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out.

    And, once they figured it out,

    they wouldn't be able to find the

    light bulbs despite the fact that

    they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD

    for the past 17 YEARS!

    But if they did, by some

    miracle of God, actually find

    them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair

    they dragged to stand on to

    change the STUPID light bulb would
    STILL BE IN

    THE SAME SPOT!!!!!

    AND UNDERNEATH

    IT WOULD BE THE

    WRAPPER THE

    STUPID LIGHT

    BULBS CAME IN!!!

    BECAUSE NO ONE

    EVER CARRIES OUT

    THE GARBAGE!!!!

    IT'S A WONDER WE

    HAVEN'T ALL

    SUFFOCATED FROM

    THE PILES OF

    GARBAGE THAT

    ARE A FOOT DEEP

    THROUGHOUT THE

    ENTIRE HOUSE!!

    IT WOULD TAKE

    AN ARMY TO

    CLEAN THIS 

    HOUSE!

    I'm sorry.... What was the question?


    Oh woman...lighten up .sm

    ... and get a sense of humor!  This board could use more giggles and less crabs.


      


    Woman's best friend .....
     
    I knew a woman...

    who had 2 back-to-back MT jobs going from one hospital to another.  She usually looked half dead by the time I saw her at her 2nd job, but was getting paid hourly, so I doubt she was too productive at job #2.  Somehow she managed to show up every day though. 


    What a great woman she was!!!......R.I.P......nm

    The one, the only, the woman who has done SO MUCH FOR AMERICA!!!!!

    HILL-OH-REE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    My Mom, who was a very wise woman, would tell you...
    to love her anyway just the way she is and realize that "everyone is doing the best they can with what they have to work with."  Plus, life's 2 short and life is fragile.
    Try to find a woman.
    I think that male internists and specialists fail to see the specifics of women's problems and cannot relate to their point of view and/or suffering.  This work is so very stressful on bones and joints and with a lack of exercise and usually poor nutrition because we are at this computer so long daily .. we are killing ourselves slowly but deliberately .. find a woman to see if you can and better still a situation where there are students who will also work with you .. they take the time and while it might drive you a little nuts, their attendings are usually very quality driven.
