We did a version of that using Tootsie Pops..
drop the Kleenex over the round pop, tie with a piece of yarn and use a felt tip to dot on eyes and a mouth. Cute to give out.
I always dig in my son's candy for tootsie rolls! nm

No Box Pops Up When I Type

I added some word and phrase entries to Expanderic.  I did not see any settings for a suggestion box on or off.  When I typed in MS Word there was noo box popping up so I guess Expanderic does not have a box.  If I am wrong and I am missing something, please let me know.


Thanks


I would just google it and see what pops

Someone answered on this below, that thing pops up when it has had a lot of hits -see the # of views
probably set for 100 or something like that. So when it have however many views, the little fire springs up indicating is "hot" and has been looked at a lot!
anyone register a web domain? Did you just follow the link that pops up or

My ankle pops. It's not painful, but occasionally it will get stiff and then pop very loudly.

I'm addicted, too :)

...and Drew has my vote so far, also. 


Wish I could get my DH to take ballroom, but he has two left feet, poor guy. 


Anyway, love, love, love the show!!


Is anybody else out there addicted to the TV channel A&E?
I love watching all the crime shows, City Confidential, Cold Case Files, all of them!!
No cable? oh my...i'm addicted
to the news channels, Discovery and TLC.  Our cable company "bundles" different tiers so you do get ripped off if you have just one favorite, but mine, well the news, not sure why though with all the murder, scandal,e tc.  I blame my neice that I inherited it from her lol. she is the absolute worse!
addicted to MT Stars
It is not just you. I am constantly checking it as it is a nice diversion. Plus it is great when you need word advice now and then. It is also a good feeling being able to pitch in and guess a word when someone else is stumped. Just like any job--we always wonder what everyone else is doing down the hall.
Completely addicted to that
Craigslist. I have bought several very nice items off lately including 2 Persian rugs, 1 for $75 and the other for $95, both large, the last 8 x 11. Fantastic buys. I absolutely am in love with it.
yep, addicted myspacer here
I've got one,set it up about a year ago. I mostly use it to stay in touch with friends and family that have moved away....oh and to check out new bands since music is my hobby. I'm just as busy as anyone else here with work, but I'll log on after the kiddies are in bed and have a few minutes to myself just surfing. You don't have to be a slacker to surf around the net..just have interests other than work.
Addicted to Lost. I taped it last
when I get my lines in.
I was addicted until I found this site (sm)
You can see all different sorts of animals.  It's fun to check back often and see what's happening.  Enjoy!  I enjoy the sounds almost as much as I do looking at the animals. 
Only 1 cup, but I'm addicted to monster drinks. nm

I now know why people become addicted to coffee...
Here's a little story for you...

I received a phone call at 7 am this morning from my neighbor. She said that our other neighbor that lives in between us called her and said there were some horses out. Now I have one black horse and she has a dark bay horse and a paint baby. I looked out my window and my horse was in his pen. So I figured it was hers. She is an older lady and her husband is out of town so I got dressed and headed down to her house to see if I could help catch these horses. Well, I get down there, and the horses are in the barn. No horses are out. But, the front gate was open. The other neighbor comes over and says "well some guy stopped by an hour ago and put your horses in the barn because they were out in the other yard". AN HOUR AGO. So why did he wait until now to call and say "the horses ARE out"??? I seriously think he might be losing it. Anyways it was freezing outside so my other neighbor made me a cup of coffee and I don't even drink coffee but I was so cold I drank it anyways. .... and then three more cups....

So now I'm wired! And maybe a little addicted! javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');


That's my fun story for the day...
Completely addicted, do them on breaks from work and before bed.nm

I was addicted to Chapstik/Bonne Bell lip stuff--began "using" went I was 10 -sm
Pretty funny thing to get addicted to right? I used BB or Chapstik or Blistex until I was 27.....so 17 years of it getting progressively worse, not kidding I would lube up every 5-10 minutes...at least it was a cheap addiction (don't smoke, etc). Went cold turkey when I was 27....I had 3 months of hell, my lips peeled and generally felt and looked horrible for 3 months until my lips regained their natural ability to take care of themselves. Even now I have to be very careful not to get "readdicted" as it would be very easy to do and have "slipped" now and then by using my Chapstik a bit too much. Now if your lips are doing this for no particular reason, yes, I'd get it checked out, can't hurt....
(Eye roll)
Oh good grief!  What's the big deal?  Act like the professional you are and just transcribe the dang thing; then go on to the next dictation!  Don't make a mountain out of a molehill.  I transcribe for Hollywood celebrities all the time; if I had to stop and tell my supervisor that "I know this person," I'd never get anything done or make any money! 
eye roll
I am being nice.  My advice:  Do research - not just this time but all the times - and it will pay off tenfold.  Now if that ain't nice, I don't know what is, unless you're implying the info should be laid out on a silver platter garnished with parsley, strawberries, powdered sugar, etc.  Now THAT's not nice.     
Eye Roll

And did anyone ask you to plan the meals in their homes?  No, they didn't!!


I try to tell myself to let it roll off
She just likes to be in the spotlight and wants to make sure no one else gets in, oh well. I shouldn't take it so hard.  It is kind of petty really.  It just makes me so angry that I want to place my foot where it doesn't shine.  Friday as I was leaving to go home super MT and another Obnoxious MT were talking. All I heard was "she this.. and she that and as I got closer obnoxious MT said "bye" and not a friendly bye, have a nice weekend it was more like "get the (bad word) out of here" type bye.  Gee, wonder why she flunked out of nursing school.  I got paranoid thinking they were plotting something to make me look foolish or insignificant in front of the supe, like they did earlier but then again the supe knows how long I have been there, she knows the work I do so why worry....but I do. 
Agreed. Roll with the changes in the
be phased out.  Those who refused to switch out of WP5.1 and learn Word or some other windows-based program now have a much more limited set of work options.  The same thing will happen with ASR.  You can learn to work with it and learn to be part of it or eventually be obsolete and out of a job.
I like the Roll-Up Keyboard
I bet it's throwable too!!
So you'd just "leave it alone?" BIG EYE ROLL!

 No wonder docs are farming it out overseas!!  


sway and roll

If a boat goes by with a pretty big wake -- which they are not supposed to do, you will feel it go up and down.  No one has gotten seasick while visiting.  When the wind comes up  it does remind you of being at the ocean.   We have a fire boat here on the island and when there has been an emergency they have jetted by in the middle of the night and that does wake me up.  But since we are tied off on three sides now to concrete pilings, we don't move like a boat at all, if anything it kinds of puts you to sleep.   The worse time for a rock and rolling though is when you are sitting on the toilet, that is when you notice it the most.  But after 11 years, I barely notice it at all.   Thanks again to all of you,  it may be Saturday but I don't have a lawn to mow at least.   I tease my newphews about coming down to ride the riding lawnmower to mow my lawn, instead I have a paddle boat that we paddle around the moorage in. 


just had another funny on - i'm on a roll! sm

typing neurobehavioral tests for my neurologist doc. Part of it is a question regarding knowing the name of the current president.  The patient's answer just slayed me.....


Question: Do you know the name of the current President?


Answer:  "Bambo"


Now that's one for the books!!


One quarter short of a roll...nm
.
LMAO! You're on a roll!
I was thinking the same thing!

How great thou art, my Mensa MT!

LOL
i remember having to roll pennies
to buy gas for the car, and it wasn't 30 dollars. Gas was about 1.50 at that time, but doesn't matter how much it is if you don't have the money!  Another time, I had a 25 cent coupon good towards some cleanser...the store clerk forgot to take it off my grocery order, stating that "it's only a quarter!"  I only replied, "I hope you never have to find out just how much a quarter is."  Unfortunately, I found out a few years later that, yes, she found how much a quarter meant. 
# 8 a few times should roll it back - NM

We bake ours and roll them in instant potatoes instead
of bread crumbs. 
"Ol' Time Rock and Roll" by

I think it's Rock-n-Roll by Gary Glitter.

They are in the roll section ( I have seen them with the bakery rolls too)

I do LOTS of ops, really almost exclusively, and the ones I have ... (drum roll) ... lol ... SM
and use primarily are Stedmans Equipment Words, The Surgical Word Book, and HPI's General Surgery/GI Words and Phrases.  I also have the Stedman specialty books, but the only one I really tend to use of those is the orthopedic one, for some reason.  I also use Google a lot and, again, primarily for orthopedics.  That seems to be the specialty that changes a lot....well, that and cardiology but I don't do much cardiology right now.  HTH
Calm down now. I'm just saying the roll works out much more economically for my needs...
I double checked and it's $52 including shipping for 5016 labels (8-1/2 x 1). That's equal to 456 sheets (8-1/2 x 11) or $0.1140 per sheet. Two of your boxes (250 x 2 = 500 sheets) x $28.70 per box is $57.40. That's $0.1148 per sheet plus your time cutting each of those little notes apart. I just print off the sheet and the office separates each note without the chance of losing a little 1" paragraph somewhere before it got to the med rec dept. I have absolutely no problem with curl, as the roll core is fairly large and I use a paper towel dispenser for quick dispensing. Six of one, half dozen of another. The gal from Med Arts Press is the one I was really speaking about. Their prices are nasty. Only if you want custom colors and then I'd go to Compulabel before MAP. And BTW I wasn't trying to step on toes, just trying to help save somebody a buck. Your welcome.
I'm curious. Does it kind of sway/roll with the
Or does the ballast/weight of it keep it very steady?  I've never been on a barge or anything quite like that, so I'm just trying to imagine.  Seems it would be so comforting (rock-a-bye, baby...) if it does move a bit.  Doesn't make any of your guests a little seasick, does it?
Love Shack and That Old Time a Rock n' Roll!!

I knew I should not have bought that roll of 37-cent stamps!
This is all my fault.
You have some really cool stuff at your site. I'm sure gonna come back here. Plane can Roll Girl:
