In a rich neighborhood in the 'burbs
north of where I live they have fixed the funky paint problem with some kind of zoning ordinance -- people can only use colors on an approved list of "historic" colors.
$2.39/gallon - Philadelphia
$2.81, suburban Philadelphia
What a bargain
Food is better in Philadelphia.sm
Also, New York. They cannot even make a burger right in Colorado. Seafood is horrible & expensive. Pittsburgh is okay, but Philadelphia has better Italian IMHO. Have to overnight hoagies if I want a treat.
Yes! I saw it in Philadelphia in January - it was absolutely incredible!

Northern Idaho!
It reminded me of TV show "Northern Exposure". Rugged people, rugged landscape, natural beauty! Absolutely fantastic!
Northern NJ Rate
Hi - Can anyone offer insight as to what a fair per page rate would be for a neuro office in northern NJ? I would rather charge per line, but some of their other transcriptionists charge them per page, and I want to be competitive. Thanks!
Northern NJ rates
Hi,
I freelance for 2 different doctor's, one in Manhattan and the other in Brooklyn, NY, although not Jersey I charge 2.25 and 2.50 per page. I am not sure if this is the going rate as I have not raised my rates in 3 years. I guess I am just happy to have them pay on time...
Northern Arizona is cold, too

Northern California Clinic
If this information is correct, I for one am happy if my employer makes money. Let's take a poll...has anyone out there ever benefitted from working for a company that lost money/had to go belly up?
9 p.m. in northern Wisconsin and it's 82 and HUMID, oh dear..nm

Depends on where you are. In northern IL..that is starting pay. But I'd not believe the poster
 said they made that 20 years ago. Wages were not that high back then.
southern, northern, eastern, western--sm
what difference does it make where anybody is from...how about being a *bleeding heart* for ALL life...not just human and not just animals. God gave everything that breathes life, and we should respect that. human or animal. JMO

Northern Counties Secretarial Services - MN
Anybody ever work for Northern Counties Secretarial Services in Minnesota in the 90s? Used to be what seemed like a great company, but in the end, they did a few really good MTs dirty.
depends which part you come from, you show northern Italian. Sicialians do things different.

I LOVED IT. . . .
And had to forward it to all my "crabby" friends.
I loved my cat too and still do
I had to put my 18-plus year old cat to sleep 2 months ago. She was with me since she was born. She had end-stage renal failure and for a year I had to give her three times weekly infusions of Ringer's. She was actually really healthy right up until the end though and used to boss the other 2 youngsters around. I miss her every day. She went with me back and forth across the country. I know exactgly how you feel.
I did and loved it - sm
She came every other week and charged $15 and hour. She would spend 4 hours and she was a white tornado in those 4 hours let me tell you. I loved, loved, loved having her.
Unfortunately, i had to let her go when i moved into rehabbers paradise. No sense in paying someone to fight a losing battle until rehabbing is over say in about 10 years :(
We did that too, my 2 loved it too! - nm

My mom loved them and had many of them -nm
throughout the years, so I grew up with them. They are nice, though I put my hair in a pony tail so I can see. Started out with an old Plymouth in the 60s and ended with a 2003 BMW Z4 (very nice). They only time it was a drag was in an unexpected rain storm, though now you just push a button and the top goes back on....until her corvette (1 car before the BMW) we had to do it manually, so stop the car, pull up the top, lock, etc. Also in the summer, very hot seats...carry towels so you don't scald off the skin on the back of your thighs, butt and back, though cloth seats would help with that problem, and obviously don't leave anything in the car you wouldn't mind losing (i.e. stolen or blown away). They are fun though, I hope to get one myself one day but content myself with driving with all the windows down now. Have fun shopping.
TFS! Loved it
I need that laugh!!
Loved pet...
I had to put down my Andi (poodle mix dog) today. Last night I came home from church and found her on the door step apparently hurt. Brought her to the vet who kept her over night. I went in this morning but she had multiple fractures and had to be put to sleep. I don't think I will get another pet. It's too hard when you lose them.
yes, i saw and loved the
was wondering if the walking tour is only a group tour or is there a map and written directions so that one could walk the tour alone (or with a friend, etc.).
the MT info is good but i am much more interested in NY and seeing it from an *insider's* point of view. i know that is not the purpose of the blog but maybe you could do something on that line regarding NY??
I used to do these too! Loved them! sm
They were long and kind of boring in my opinion, but I made a LOT of $$ and had a GREAT dictator. he was so great, in fact, that he transitioned into doing his work by voice recognition without a hitch. I truly miss that account . . . :(
Loved this. (nm)

Yes, loved it.....sm
Yes, I used it for several years and loved it. It does not have its own expander, but I used InstantText with it quite successfully. I hardly ever hear of it any more. Do you mind sharing what company still uses it?
Loved it
Who still uses this program???? It was great. Does not have its own Expander but I used Instant Text and it worked great!!
Loved it.
Where did you find it? I am thinking to change mine.
LOVED the job!!!!
I worked for this company a while back & loved the job. I say to anyone out there reading the same rubbish I did, use your own judgement about a person/job and don't let bitter faceless people influence you otherwise - and THEY talked about being rude?!!! If I wasn't forced to give up the vet op work (family reasons), I would never have left! New clinics kept opening every year, and the owner always did her best to keep me informed and made my job as easy as possible! Some people prefer to work for large transcription companies, but I prefer to work for smaller companies, where you are recognized as being an indvidual that is an IMPORTANT member of the team. 
Loved it!
I enjoyed reading this post. I guess it was that punch line that really got to me LOL....
Your real-life doc kinda reminds me of Dr. House on TV, though Dr. House seems to have become more contrite during the last 10 minutes of the season finale.
I've always thought that there could not possibly be real life docs out there like House, at least not ones who would be allowed to see patients, but now I am not so sure.
Have you ever thought of a second career in which you take real-life experiences and fictionalize them, send the scripts to the people who make movies and TV shows? I think you would be very good at that.
LOL! Loved your response...
 the guy would probably burn the whole neighborhood down just to be sure he got the one who did it! I really wished there was something I could do, though. I loved your graphics.. That's exactly what I feel like doing!
I loved it. Very moving.

I had one when I was inhouse and loved it! sm
I just wish I could afford to get my own right now. It takes a little getting used to, but not too bad and it's soooooo comfortable.
When I used to use Medrite I loved it.
I'm not sure what that person does not like about it. It was extremely easy to use.
Awww I loved her...
she was a great actress and she made me laugh. RIP Shelly.
I loved it!! I feel that way every day!!

Yes, but then I loved beaded anything and
oh and loved Gunsmoke!! SM.....

McCloud" Star Dennis Weaver Died
Burt Reynolds: "He was a wonderful man and a fine actor, and we will all miss him."
American television actor Dennis Weaver best known for his roles as sidekick "Chester Goode" on TV's first "adult Western" Gunsmoke and as Marshal Sam McCloud on the NBC police drama McCloud, died Friday, age 81.
Weaver passed away from complications of cancer at his home in Ridgway, in southwestern Colorado, it was reported Monday by his publicist, Julian Myers.
Burt Reynolds, Weaver's co-star in "Gunsmoke" stated: "He was a wonderful man and a fine actor, and we will all miss him."
Weaver was born in Joplin, Missouri to Walter Weaver and Lena Prather. His first role on Broadway came as understudy to Chapman as Turk Fisher in Come Back, Little Sheba.
He eventually took over the role from Chapman in the national touring company. Solidifying his choice to become an actor, Weaver enrolled in The Actors Studio, where he met Shelley Winters.
During this time--the start of his acting career--he supported his family by doing a number of odd jobs, including selling vacuum cleaners, tricycles and women's hosiery.
In 1952, Winters aided him in getting a contract from Universal Studios. He made his film debut that same year in the movie The Redhead from Wyoming. Over the next three years, he played roles in a series of movies, but still had to work odd jobs to support his family.
It was while delivering flowers for one of these jobs that he heard he had landed his biggest break — the role of "Chester" on the new television series Gunsmoke — the highest-rated and longest-running series in TV history (1955 to 1975). He received an Emmy Award in 1959 for Best Supporting Actor (Continuing Character) in a Dramatic Series.
From 1967 to 1969, he appeared on the television show Gentle Ben as Tom Wedloe.
He began appearing on the series McCloud in 1970, for which he received two Emmy Award nominations: in 1974, he was nominated for Best Lead Actor in a Limited Series and in 1975, for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series. His frequent use of the affirming Southernism, "There you go", became a catchphrase for the show.
From 1973 to 1975, he was president of the Screen Actors Guild.
In 1978, he played the trail boss R.J. Poteet in the television miniseries Centennial on the episode titled "The Longhorns". Dennis Weaver also appeared in many acclaimed television films.
In 1980, he played Dr. Samuel Mudd, who was unjustly imprisoned for the Lincoln assassination, in The Ordeal Of Doctor Mudd. In 1983, he played a real estate agent addicted to cocaine in Cocaine: One Man's Seduction. Weaver received probably the best reviews of his career when he starred in the 1987 film Bluffing It, in which he played a man who is illiterate.
In February 2002, he appeared on the animated series The Simpsons (episode DABF07, "The Lastest Gun in the West") as the voice of aging Hollywood cowboy legend Buck McCoy.
For his contribution to the television industry, Dennis Weaver was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6822 Hollywood Blvd, and on the Dodge City Trail of Fame. In 1981, he was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Thanks for sharing!! Loved them.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED NCL......
I think it depends on what you are looking for. I have also been on Celebrity twice. The thing I love about NCL is the Freestyle Cruising. Pre-kids days it was nice to get all fancied up and dressed for dinner. Nowadays I prefer to be very casual and eat whenever I am ready, not at a specific sitting. The other nice thing about NCL is that you do not have to worry about tipping. No figuring $3.50 per person per day for this staff member, and $2.50 per person per day for this staff person. This is all included in the price of the cruise on NCL. We are trying Carnival in June. Hope they are as good. Good Luck
I loved your blog (sm)
What a jolt to reality. Reminded me of things I'd forgotten I liked about this type of work. Too easy to concentrate on the negatives day to day. I have a cat too but he is not as much company as yours seems to be. Nice spot for him by the window--I'm sure he is very content to hang out with you during the day.
thanks...Loved Georgia!...nm
