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!! :)

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

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 :)

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:

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

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:

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.....

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
