So does anyone have it as bad as I do as far as this site goes? It is minimized on my computer at work all day. I hate to miss out for too long because then I have so much to read to catch up. Ha!

OMG...seriously, last week I barely got any sleep cuz of this site! I couldnt keep up...I couldnt go to bed if I hadnt caught up....I dont even know how I managed to eat. :unsure:

Oh...and a couple weeks ago we had some technical difficulties with the computer....I couldnt get online for a couple days. I went through withdrawl. :(

I'm glad you enjoy it bc it probably won't stop since we're both lazy. Plus, I'll be going to college soon.

Both lazy? You're lazy, I'm sick!! Before I got sick, I was hardly lazy!! :)

CarlaB Enthusiast

Just wanted to let you know that we'll be visiting my grandma for a few days. You may see Morgan and I ocassionally, but maybe not! I don't know if she has high speed internet yet, or what we'll be doing. Have a great weekend, we'll jump in when we get back!

AndreaB Contributor

Have a good time Carla and Morgan.....we'll see you when you get back. :D

OMG julie!!

I LOVE Grease 2!! I think I saw if first before I ever saw Grease....I loved it...have seen it too many times to count. I probably know it by heart. Because I saw it first, I never really liked the original Grease half as much. Nobody else gets this!! Everyone looks at me like I'm off my rocker cuz I like the one with Michelle Pfiefer better.....sue me! :rolleyes:

The songs you named arent my favs though...I liked "I'll be Your Girl For All Seasons", "Cool Rider" and the one at the end...when they're at the luau....cant think of it right now.

Oh Rachel, this makes me absolutely giddy!!!

I sort of downplayed my love for Grease 2 because I thought I would sound like a nerd or something :lol: . But I LOVE LOVE LOVE Grease 2. It was the same for me, I saw Grease 2 before I saw the original Grease so I didn't have it to compare it to.

I had a major crush on the lead actor, Maxwell Caulfield.

I love the songs Back To School Again, Score Tonight, Cool Rider, Girl For All Season's, Turn Back The Hands of Time, We'll Be Together, Rock-A-Hula-Luau (the song at the luau)

Yes go rent it Carla, and join in on the love for Grease 2 :lol:

Have a great time you guys at grandmas :)

Thanks Andrea, for wondering where I was :D

For you grease 2 fans, I always liked the original better. I saw the original first and many, many times. I thought grease 2 was good but was disappointed it didn't have anything to do with the first grease.

Andrea, I think, like Carla pointed out, if you saw the original Grease first you were probably disappointed with Grease 2. For those of us who saw Grease 2 first, we didn't have the original to compare it to, and for us it was a more modern/updated version of our time that we could relate to. Imo anyway.

Grease 2 took place a decade later, same school, same groups (Pink Ladies, Greasers) just different faces. Plus Frenchie was still there, and her cousin was Michael, the foreign exchange student, aka "Cool Rider" :lol:

**edit, actually maybe it was the same decade, just a different senior class.

Soooo cool that you love this movie too! :D

Turn Back the Hands of Time...I cant believe I forgot that one! Thats my second fav.....after Girl For All Seasons.

The song I was referring to was We'll Be Together.....not the Rock a Hula Luau....I dont really care for that song. Wasnt We'll Be Together near the end...I thought it was at the luau....maybe not. :unsure:

I wanna see it now....its been a long time. :P

Both lazy? You're lazy, I'm sick!! Before I got sick, I was hardly lazy!! :)

Today was the most pittiful time I've conversed with you over the computer and I was sick. And also, in a certain way, I'm not lazy. I do a lot of work....I'm just a little tired when it comes to talking :) So I pick and choose what I want to say out loud. :rolleyes:

I've never seen Grease 2, I only saw Grease and I LOVED it :D I also have the soundtrack :)

Yes, de ja vu :lol:

Don't get me wrong, I like the original Grease, but I just have a special place in my heart for Grease 2. Michael was so dreamy.

I guess everyone is really partial to their favorite version!

Yeah, Rachel "We'll Be Together" was at the end, after Michael reveals himself at the luau, when magically it is nighttime in a blink of an eye :lol:

I actually just watched it last month with my nieces, they played Grease and Grease 2 back to back on the Family Channel :D

Wait, we talked about Grease on Saturday night? I must have missed that.....

I am always one step behind :lol:

.....or two

i'm in the minority i hate grease so much, i have always hated it, i saw it is england when i was 6 as a show and i didn't understand it and from then it just has not appealed to me.

TheDave Newbie

Dave, nice to see that you're not a complete town idiot.....you're still smart enough to find the town ;)B)

Thanks, I guess ;) And in case you didn't know, I found more than this new town :lol:

It's good to see you found us Dave.

Rachel,

Why do I think his bark is worse then his bite? Afterall he didn't say anything about the orange jug.

:D

and....

I bite as hard as loud as I bark! haha... I did say something about the jug..... she had to explain how she carried it out to the car without me or anyone else noticing the gallon jug! :ph34r::lol:

:lol::lol:

Yeah....I will need at least 6 weeks after carrying the alien baby around for 4 years!!

I would grant you a permanent leave if you told me you were having an alien baby!

Oh...he brought up the orange jug thing too. :rolleyes: I went back into the pages of the OMG thread last night.....never a good thing going back. I was lost in the thread for awhile but eventually found some stuff. OMG....I should not be held accountable for things I said while under the influence of sweet potatoes and yams! :ph34r:

excuses :rolleyes:

LMAO!!

As a matter of fact I think its a GREAT job for the town idiot!! :lol::lol::lol:

I know he'll be really excited about it too! :lol:

Andrea...Can you add this to The Dave's job list?? He will be the towns poop hauler. :D

Kind of a punishment for going back into the pages of the OMG thread.... :P

BS! using your presidential powers to make me pickup the doo doo?

:lol: I can't wiat to see his response to this :lol: I hope he visits Rachelville tonight.

B)

Rachel consider it done.

Dave (The): Town Idiot with the side job of keeping the tumbleweeds at bay; Rule Breaker; Construction Worker; Firefighter; Town Handler of Natural Fertilizer for the Gardens

Do you know I was only in the 'ville for like 4 days....then dissappeared, and I'm still made fun of more than anyone else? Whoa! At least I bring humor (with me or at me) to the group :)

:lol::lol::lol:

Hmmmm, maybe you should help out Dave with his duties.

Any F-R-I-E-N-D-S fans? The one where Chandler has the interview, and his future employer asks about his duties. Chandler explains how he almost cracked up in the interview because his new boss was asking about his "doodies"...ok I'm a freak...I know :blink:

Yes this should be a decree...anyone who goes back should incur punishment, lol. (Okay, maybe only TheDave!) :lol:

Thanks for the support....I'd expect more from a fellow NorCalifornian! :P

:huh: Slacker, the 1st was so much better than the 2nd! Everyone knows sequels are just desperate attempts for more $$$. What are you thinking? :rolleyes:

Oh....and for the technical side....since everyone can now do multiple quotes....let's see who can figure out how to bypass the "too many emotions rule". This reply has 45 :D

:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P

I missed the lab lady who thought I was like 10 and was so gentle and kind....she gave me a lollipop and a barbie sticker.

:lol: You do look like you're 10 huh? Never really realized it....

Not this ogre in a lab coat...all she gave me was a big bruise. :angry:

:lol:

How scary is that??!! I'm kind of freaked out....I dont like her and my arm's already sore. How am I gonna climb rocks on Friday with sore arms. :(

You'll be ok ;) You should mostly be using your legs....and your arms to help me (belay)...hehe speaking of an ogre :huh:

I saw Grease on Broadway when it was first out in 1970's. The movie diverted from the original play in a lot of ways and for me the movie was not the "real thing." Grease 2 just underscored how Hollywood can take a good idea an ruin it with additional parts.

The Broadway show had the "Sandra Dee" song but also made other references to being naughty as a teenager in the 1950's. The movie only alludes to this but the play was "out there." (I am not advocating being naughty as a teenager, just reporting how Broadway had more flexibility as there are really no censors like movies (have/had).

One of my favorities, off Broadway and it's gone now after like 30 some odd years was The "Fantastiks".

I did see a Bob Fosse thing that I absolutely hated and couldn't wait until it was through but I don't remember the name of it, it wasn't Chicago. I would have left in the middle of it but I was with some relatives who were from out of town and felt it would have confused them to leave them in theatre alone.

Oh, I love Grease! My daughter loves it too & I guess it is okay that she watches it because at her age she has no idea about the real meaning about some of the songs & what they are saying. I took her to see a play of Grease & she had a blast. I went with my mom, grandma, daughter, aunt & great aunt. Kind of a girls thing & we all loved it.

I'm a huuuuuuge Grease fan! Yeah, the dirtiest part in Greas the movie that alluded to the dirtier play, was when John Travolta ran around with saran wrap...it was a larger part of the song in the play. I won't say what the saran wrap is for, but it ain't playing safe! :ph34r:

I won't watch Grease 2 on principle, just like I won't watch any Bring it On sequels...it ruins the first one. Actually, any movie/show that tries to come back with a different cast is just bad news :rolleyes:

OH

I went back to the hair lady yesterday...she tried to put another color over it to even it out (my natural color, actually) and it looks worse. So I have to go get it stripped today, and then wait 24 hours to color it again :blink: DH's grandparents are coming into town tomorrow, too. Not good. :ph34r:

And had a search party out looking for you. :lol:

I am a HUGE "Friends" fan Dave

Hey! Everyone is knockin me and Rachel's love for Grease 2

Chelse- sorry about the hair :huh:

I stopped getting my hair highlighted over a year ago and I am thinking about going back to it, I'm not sure though :unsure:

flagbabyds Collaborator

i have seen every friends episode at least 3 times, and have them all on DVD, my sister is OBSESSED with friends.

AndreaB Contributor

Dave,

Why you always sneaking around at night? :lol:

Chelsea,

Sorry about your hair.....that sounds like a nightmare.

Julie,

Your hair is beautiful, why would you need to highlight it. Chelsea's was beautiful at her wedding too....I guess I'll never understand why people want to mess with hair that is already beautiful.

Donna,

How's the chocolate (I'm so said I need to refrain) withdrawal going?

I'm currently watching the Price is Right.

It has inspired me. Rachelville needs a field trip. I think we should go to the Price is Right.

Everybody buys/makes a celiac t-shirt. Wear them to the show. We create awareness. We have a blast.

Maybe somebody would even get on and bob would ask what celiac is??

I'm feeling a little verclempt.......here's a topic......rachelville on the price is right.......ok discuss.....

-Jessica :rolleyes:

jayhawkmom Enthusiast

Ok... I'll arrange that. LOL!

But seriously... The Price is Right is better than Lazytown...which is what I'm watching.

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:

      Hi there any advice welcomed. I have had 4 years of symptoms ranging from immune related anaphylactic symptom sudden onset food allergy to peppers/paprika/chilli/capsicum family derivatives. all these allergies fizzled out and following a food challenge test in hospital I reintroduced them a few months ago. Since then my digestive system is a mess. i have since noticed that 4 years ago when testing for iga allergies my iga level was .62 and my ttg was less than .1 (due to symptoms I was probably eating very plainly at that time). should I insist on being retested for celiac? I’ve since read two indicators for celiac include: sensitive to spicy foods when in flare up tooth enamel weakness and symmetrical discolouration patches on teeth which I have had since childhood on my two front teeth     thanks

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.
