The Sopranos..................sm

I cannot believe that Tony Soprano (looks like he) got whacked!!!  Looks like he's dead now.....I know they had to kill him off because it's their last season and a half, but so early into the season????  I will miss James Gandolfino greatly on this show, that is IF he is dead, but he looked really dead to me as he reached 911 and then couldn't speak to the 911 operator.


Yes, addicted to The Sopranos here.....


sopranos
I would say Paulie is on his way to being whacked, along with Vito. Carmella is wise to both of them and we saw how Tony's BP and heart rate rose to stroke level when Paulie was in his hospital room talking to Tony while he was still in his coma. Apparently Aunt Dottie's deathbed confession pushed Paulie over the edge.

Don't you find it ironic that someone who has lied, cheated, stolen, crippled and killed other people for a living, was so outraged that these 2 sisters "deceived" him? You would think he would be grateful that they loved each other and him enough to give him a home and family.

I hope Tony doesn't go soft - because his "family" is falling apart - his business family that is. Even Bobby is doing his own business on the side - shooting the rapper who wanted publicity.


Can't wait for the Sopranos (sm)
That's the only reason I keep my HBO.  Does anyone know when repeats of the entire Nip/Tuck will be on?  I missed a season, I think, and my daughter has never watched it at all.  With all my raving about what a good show it is, now she wants to see it.
Shhhhhh! Sopranos is on!!

Sopranos, 24, Nip Tuck nm

Sopranos . . . Has Tony found God?
Has Paulie lost it?
Dateline, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sopranos,

Very excited about the Sopranos coming back

Y&R, Big Love, Sopranos, Ghost Whisperer

Yes! Nip/Tuck, Sopranos, Big Love, and Ghosthunters.
and new episodes start soon. I also am really liking New Adventures of Old Christine. Funny! My kids and I like to watch the Nanny 911 and Supernanny shows, too. Normally, I'd include American Idol, but this year was kind of a dud for me.
how 'bout this one?

I was reading through a patient's H&P and saw this:


"Patient is 73 years old, stool spry and lively."


Quite a visual, that was...


How 'bout going further than that, and
actually starting a UNION?
It could be 'USMTU' (United States MT Union', or maybe
'MTWA' (Medical Transcription Workers of America.) It'd be nice to actually put 'AMERICA' back in the name, (and Indians need not, and MAY not, apply.)
SOPRANOS C'EST SOIR! A NOCHE! 2NITE!..sm
                 
Any Sopranos fans out there waiting for the big return on Sunday?
Can't wait.
of course, I know 'bout as much as the docs do...sm

yeah, and that's why I'm here typing and they're out on their yacht somewhere, right?    But I do try to diagnose, even did this when I worked for a doc in the back office.  And sometimes I was actually right!


'bout time!
:
LOL - how 'bout dysfunctional since

How 'bout Amphion?

As well it SHOULD! 'Bout TIME, too!
nm
how 'bout a camera on that spot?

How 'bout comparing us to PA's, RNs, or even doctors? (nm)
x
how 'bout Bay??? Or a local auction house, or
take pictures to local jewlers. (Wouldn't recommend taking the original on first visits). ebay might also give you some information re: comparables.
how 'bout a lovely gift certificate...nm

I hope they get put out of business. 'Bout time the
HMOs are ruining the health industry. Many fine docs have quit 'cause they don't like pencil-pushers telling 'em what to do. And you KNOW they're behind all that 'bottom line' BS that has driving our work offshore.

Glad to see the suit being brought against them, and hope that THIS time they get taken down.
Here's what I gots to say 'bout all diss stuff...
1. How long have you worked as a medical transcriptionist? 5+ years.
2. What certification have you received?  None.
3. What attracted you to pursuing a career in medical transcription?  The ad in the local paper and the fact I was penniless and willing to do anything...even if it was morally/legally questionable.
4. What type of environment do you work in (i.e. from home, physician’s office, hospital, other). Home.
5. What do you think are the most important skills a medical Transcriptionist should have? A sense of humor and ability to acquire sedatives easily.
6. Did some skills come naturally to you, while others required more practice?  Always been zippy on the keys and always been willing to learn or teach myself whatever I needed to, to get a job done.  I could use a hand with anger management 101 though.
7. In addition to transcribing medical reports, do you engage in other forms of business writing while on the job (such as memos, proposals, or progress reports, etc.) to clients, coworkers, or supervisors?  Nope.
8. What do you think is the most difficult aspect of medical transcription?  Continuing to do it despite it messing with your head knowing this line of work is steadily going down the globalization crapper.
9. What do you find to be the easiest aspect of medical transcription?  X about it.  :-D
10. As a medical transcriptionist, do you often need to collaborate with others to ensure that all the information in your reports is correct? I don't understand this question, so I guess I don't do whatever this is.

How 'bout we all shut up and go to work, loool

How'bout docs can't decide if patient...sm
is a He or She, goes between genders throughout the course of the dictation.  (Especially with ESLs, who really need to get their grammar straight, much less their enunciation).  Hate to send my loved ones to this doc...can't tell if it's a "he" or "she". 
Parents and children? How 'bout fishing, sports, his job, etc. nm

Curiosity piqued.....whatcha excited 'bout??? nm
.
'Bout gave me a HEART ATTACK, but no pay cute here.
Somehow I dont think they would cut MTs' pay 30 percent without some sort of advance notice, done in such a way that people such as me, who didn't get any email, would find out about it on MT Stars. That's why I don't believe it.
