I watched also
Bruce Jenner seemed very stiff and almost afraid.  I think the team that did a lot of the lifts should not have gotten better scores.  The older judge is too hard on them since the celebs have never skated before.  I may watch next week just out of curiosity to see who is going bye-bye.
Believe it or not...I just watched
for the very first time.  I thought it was a very good movie.  Anyone else enjoy it like I did?  Thought Russell Crowe did an excellent job.
I have always watched ...
I've always noted what I can make an hour every where I've worked, so it seems strange that no matter what type of reports I have, I'm making around the same an hour... not much fluctation and is less than I can make at another company... (I work 2 different companies)...but I don't know how they could do it... 
I watched CNN yesterday almost all day, just

willing those miners to walk out, but knowing that wasn't likely to happen based on the fact that there was no apparent debris that could be blocking them in.  I celebrated with the families when word was circulated that 12 were alive.  I called my DH at work and cried like a baby.    I was numb after the news came that only 1 survived.   I kept hearing stories about how the miners were coming to meet their families at the church, a Red Cross person said the miners were fighting about going to the hospital, that they wanted to see their families, and after the ambulance went out I waited and waited wanting desperately to see those men walk out.  


 


I've Never Watched AI, Believe It or Not!!
Thanks so much for posting the link. He's got a fantastic voice. Even though I'm more than old enough to be his mother, that gray hair is SO sexy.
I watched the prosecutor video
I watched the video with the interview with the Aruban prosecutor, which was on MSNBC videos in the internet..check it out, maybe it is still there.  She said the father was arrested for interfering with an investigation by talking to the boys and telling them no body, no crime.
I watched a special on TV last night
about outsourcing to India and how much they are gaining financially from this situation.  It showed some of the girls out shopping in nice malls buying three and four pairs of shoes at a time.  Wish I could just buy one pair!!  Bring our work back home!!!
Haven't watched the news all day
Boy, that family has been through so much.  Sometimes you think you are getting more than you can endure, don't you? 
I just watched the new episode. I hope
they can help Jeff out. Tempestt looks very pretty, and she was smart to take a break and go to school. Harvey rocks :)
Have you watched "How I Met Your Mother"?
It's on Monday's, I think. All my days run together, forgive me. It's not reality, but it's really refreshing. Good writing. I enjoy it.
Has anybody watched the TV show "Earl?"

ZZZzzzzz


nice to see some folks watched...sm
waiting to see how this progresses - hope it lasts as a reality show - seems like there is less *bickering* that with Dancing with the Stars, though I like that show too but NOT the judges there....*grin*
Haven't watched yet tonight (sm)
I taped it so I will watch it another time. I like Chris although he hasn't been as good the last couple of weeks. I love, love, love Taylor although he also has not really been his usual self the last few weeks. I also liked Mandisa. Paris and Katherine are great too. Oh, and Elliot. I DO NOT care for Kellie or Bucky, most especially Kellie. I think she is trying to play the cute down-on-the-farm girl like Carrie Underwood and, honey, she needs to stop already. Please, please let her be gone next. I'll settle for Ace being gone too though.
I haven't watched until tonight.
I would say that Kat has a really small range and tries to hit notes she just can't hit. The first and third song were just not good for her.  Taylor aced two of the three. Levon is a good song and I think would have been good for him, but he seemed kind of nervous. All in all, he is the winner.  Even Simon said so.  He's adorable.
My husband and I watched The Notebook (sm)

We both teared up.  He told me that he loved me like that, and that I was his Allie.  My birthday was shortly thereafter and on my envelope he wrote "To My Allie."  What a guy I'm married to.  After 23 years of marriage, our love is still growing strong!


My daughter and I watched and cried, too. Seems so
unfair, but then I believe God needed him. For a barb to get him in between the ribs and directly into his heart, God said, "It is time." 
LOL. You're right. It's been a while since I watched SNL. Thanks for the reminder.

I watched this video and sent it to my US Senator and also

.


I watched the game and have been a football fan for 40+ years.
excuse-making sore loser like you are.

Again, grow up.
Who watched American Idol tonight???
Cannot even believe that Bucky went home before Ace, Katherine, or Paris.  Ace cannot sing at all!  Bucky was not great, but it was definitely not his time to go! 
I watched it both times and couldn't believe it either time.
I really doubt they let them do actual work. It was probably practice stuff and just made them do X number of minutes of dictation or x number of hours and they just had to muddle through and type whatever they thought it was. I saw a few lines of what the husband typed and it made no sense from what I saw, so I think they just had to put in the time and guess, just to get a feel for what she does.
Oh give me a break. If had watched the show..sm
you would have known WHY they asked her to leave. She was arrogant, pushy, demanding, and interruptive to put it mildly. The show is WAY better off without her and her attitude of "better than thou."
has anybody been watching Arrested Development? I watched four shows in a row on FOX and it is
I don't know when it is on regularly but it's a great show and they ran four shows back to back and it was laugh out loud funny.
No, that wasn't the case. I watched the interviews on the news.
The very next day after Wilma, there were people standing in line complaining about no help and what were they going to do. One healthy, 20ish woman in particular had her kids with her standing in line. She was upset because she didn't even have water for formula. Now, I do not have a problem helping children out. I would give kids everything I had, but the mother should have had enough brains to fill water jugs and take care of her kids. Those kids are depending on her to do the right thing, and she didn't do it. Her manicure with fake nails certainly was nice, though. Talk about messed up priorities. There were healthy men there complaining about having no water or food for themselves, too.
Yeah, I've heard of her but never watched or listened to her.
I just wish I could get someone else on board, too.
Ever watched Jay Leno's segment "Jaywalking?" People don't know a lot
x
Oh, me too!!! When I got my first microwave (very expensive) we all watched the bacon cooking.

I'm in the same boat.. Sat on the idol website and watched reruns of
s
I once watched a retired FBI profiler who studied the case SM
and found evidence of a break-in from the basement window. He took pictures, explained his theory, showed how somewhat could have broken in, hid under a bed. He theorized that the intent was not to kill her, but to rape her. Probably someone who was the house that night. I forgot the profiler's name, but it was an interesting show. Very sad, sad case.
Oops, meant haven't watched it yet. Will watch tonight.

your sister
If it is this easy for her to do, it sounds to me like you might have to take it a step further after you straighten out this mess, and file some kind of charges, or SOMETHING that would prevent you from getting in future trouble.  So sorry for your plight. 
You said it, sister! NM

I'm right there with ya, sister...
lots of heathens, drunkards, cheaters, and liars! God bless us every one!!!
Right on, Sister!
Amen!  I couldn't have said it better myself. 
Need to help my sister, not sure how.

She is trying to get another job and get out of a bad situation.  Her boss, who is weird to begin with, has become increasingly paranoid and strange over the past few months.  He is accusing her of stealing and locking her out of some necessary (bookkeeping) parts of her work.  It is a landscaping company and she does a lot of the scheduling and bookkeeping stuff.  We both wonder if he is on drugs and/or schizophrenic.  There are several employees who obviously come to work stoned and/or get stoned on the job (meth probably). 


I want to report him to someone, not sure who or how.  I mean I want to get him in BIG trouble.   When she leaves, his little company will probably crash. Maybe that is trouble enough.


My sister in law just had it done about

She is a little disappointed in that she is not losing weight as fast as she would like.  You go back for appointments and they tighten the band little by little, so you can eat less and less.  She has lot about 25 pounds so far and I think that is pretty good for that amount of time.  They emphasize that they don't want you to lose it TOO fast.


Insurance covered hers and most likely if you have a high enough BMI (body mass index), insurance would cover it.  My SIL told me how much it is without insurance and dang it I can't remember now.  For some reason $17,000 is popping into my mind but I am not at all sure about that figure.


Sharon Osborne, Ozzie's wife, had a lap band a few years ago.  She used to weigh quite a big more.


Im with u, sister
I just got done with a horrible dicator. I tried my hardest and the report still looked like swiss cheese. If the hospitals would just go to the source and MAKE these ESL dictators take dictation lessons. I would be more than happy to teach. AAAAGGGHH. Thank you for letting me rant!
You got it sister!
I thank my lucky stars that I am skilled enough to make it here at home.  I also have children that I think have benefited greatly from me being at home.  It is so funny how the "home" interruptions are actually easier than the ones I had experienced working on-site.  Sometimes, I felt like my co-workers and the doctors were worse than my children needing pampering and consoling.  When I was on-site, I used to say to my transcription co-worker that we should hang-up a sign that says "Complaint Department" because when whoever it may be brought us the work, they also brought their complaints for the day.  We would just look at each other and laugh thinking wow, we're really losing out, we should have been psychiatrists.  We were so forgotten until something went wrong.  No one really noticed when everything went right, if ya' catch my drift. 
Wow you need a big sister-hug right now. - sm

It seems like they got your e-mail,but not your message... If it were me, and I know we all have different situations, but if it were me, I would begin quietly looking for another job.  You know what you have right now, and you know what your dream job is, maybe you can find a compromise.  If you do it while you are still working, there is not as much pressure to find one right away, and you know that eventually there is a light at the end of the tunnel (hopefull not an oncoming train) so it may not be as hard to take.  In the meantime, come here and vent whenever you want, that is part of what we are here for, to get each other through the tough times... 


 


You said it, sister! ... lol ...nm
xx
I'm with ya, sister!
I'm 53 and more than ready for a change to something I can actually look forward to! I don't know if it'll be any better income in a new career, but like the Sheryl Crow song says "A change will do you good." Good luck to ALL of you guys!
Right on sister!...nm
ee
Tell your sister to run!!!
This field is going to the dumps. Currently trying to get out of it
Amen, sister. I'm with you!
When Tommy boy doesn't get what he wants, he goes on the attack.  Telling Matt Lauer he knew nothing about psychiatry!  What, Pray tell, does pretty boy Cruise know?  He is nothing but a spoiled bully.  I refuse to waste any of my money on him.
Amen, Sister!
I'll be the one with the mug on the right, okay? 
Amen, Sister! nm

Amen, Sister! nm

RadGuy for your sister
Angels Gate is a perfect place to make that donation. There are a nonprofit couple who have starting taking in animals that otherwise would have been discarded or puyt down. They have both dogs and cats that have no hind legs and bacause of these wonderful people the animals now have prostheses with wheels which allows them to get around. They have just about any and every type of animal with any type of disability. Go to their web site www.Angelsgate.com. I give regularly because I love animals sooo much, but because these are increadible survivors.
Amen, Sister! nm

Amen sister! I often wonder now sm
when I started in 1979 at the age of 24, the folks in the office who had been doing this for years then. What did they start on? The hospital I was trained at (forget schools), I had a male Transcriptionist train me who is still transcribing today and he is 60 years old. He had been transcribing for 12 years when I started so that is 40 years for him total!
To SISTER ON DISABILITY

#1.  How did these people even know about her return to college?  I would have her check with the financial aid office of the colllege to see IF they notified anyone in order to get grants for her, as in state grants, Americans with Disability Act, etc.  Someone had to tell these people and if the college is selling names to marketers, then they should be called on the carpet by the atty gen.


#2.  My biggest concern is that these people now have access to her checking account and if she has her SSD check deposited monthly, whose to stop them from deducting all they want?


Very scary and I would make sure this is looked into immediately.  Hoping for the best of this situation.
