You can practice and get someone's notes on the lecture later.

ROFLMAO

That is hysterically funny!

And the LAPTOP??? Nooooooo . . . . .

Pedicure? Yes. Toenail Polish? No. Enough Said.

The look on your wife's face when you tell her that you can't go away on a romantic weekend with her because you'll miss the Celiac Forum's full moon extravaganza . . . . . . . . priceless.

OMG -- BEV -- just saw your Avatar --- You are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now i am LMAO. If your toenails look like that, your wife must be awfully brave to have married you. Best laugh I've had ALL day. Dude- where do you get this stuff?

Sorry, I couldn't resist :P

Those aren't really my toes BTW! My wife should be used to it though, my father-in-law and 2 of my brothers in law have feet that look like that :blink: Maybe I'm the brave one?

Gross story:

My father-in-law once sat down at the kitchen table (his house) with a pair of those heavy duty Cutco kitchen scissors and gave himself a "pedicure". :o:blink:

Welcome to my world! :ph34r:

To quote Dana Carvey as Bush #1 - "...nawt ganna do it..."

Richard that's disgusting .... actually, you'd like a pedicure ... you don't HAVE to get polish, but you do get a nice foot massage and soak!

Mary made me get a manicure for our wedding. It was weird. I don't like people fondling my hands, well at least strangers.

So here's my random thought of the day....

The kids were watching Toy Story 2 when I left the house this A.M., so on my way to work I'm thinking how cool is Buzz Lightyear, I wish I had THAT when i was a kid. Then i got to thinking what did i really want to have when I was a kid, but never ended up getting...the very first thing that popped into my mind was a box of 64 Crayola's, you know, with the built in sharpener :rolleyes:

We buy the cheap-ee crayons, so my kids will probably want the same thing when they get older (wishful thinking, more like an i-Pod!)

So what funny things did everybody dream about when they were young and impressionable?

Ha! My mom bought me lots of Crayola boxes with sharpeners!! I was quite the artists, too.

I was terribly spoiled ... by all my grandparents and parents ... so I can't think of anything I wanted and didn't have except for an older brother.

I wanted a Barbie Doll and a maxi coat. I did have the 64 Crayola box with the sharpener--always hated to use them--they all looked so perfect and new at the start of the school year.

Silly Putty

I had some when I was around 7yo but it got left in my jeans pocket w/out the case and when my jeans went through the dryer......well, lets just say mum was not very happy with me. To this day she does not allow it in the house :ph34r:

And I always wanted an older brother, still do

Don't feel left out, my kids can't have it either.

I have a Silly Putty story--one Sunday morning when I was maybe 7, everyone was getting ready for church. I decide to try to try transferring the Sunday comics onto my Silly Putty (like they did on TV). So I'm laying on the living room rug, and flatening the putty to get it ready. Trouble is, I'm pressing it into the carpet while doing this--*and it dosen't come up* :o

Suffice it to say the parents were not happy with me--thank goodness we had to get to church.... :unsure:

Of course, that ended the stuff in the house :(

weird but it's nice to know I'm not the only kid that had to grow up w/out silly putty :P;)

I always thought it was more fun then play-doh or clay. play-doh left crumbs everywhere and the color of the clay always rubbed off onto my hands. but silly putty was cool, I always liked to see how far I could stretch it w/out it breaking :)

Does anyone remember the Mayor Art show on television? I was on it one time, and he would pick some kids out of the audience and ask them to tell a joke. If he picked you and you told a joke then you got to pick a game to take home.

I remember having a joke about popeye all ready to tell him and sitting there waving my arm all over but alas he didn't pick me.

I don't know what made me think about that.

Did you ever meet him?

In HS a guy a year older than I am started hanging around our family, his family life was poor ... he was like a brother, and we are still close today. I call him my brother, my kids call him uncle ... one day Morgan realized I have no brothers, then finally figured out he's not really her uncle. It was funny that she had that revelation at 18! I guess I got my wish!

A few years ago I went on tour to Europe w/an orchestra, I kind of "adopted" our tour guide as my "big brother". It was really fun, he'd call me his little sister too :)

Actually I have a pic of us together, I think I'll change my avatar....

*edit*

<-------- refresh to see me and my "big brother" Almar

No I never got to meet him, the most I have is a few pictures from when he was little. With his mom being Korean (My dad had a thing for forgien women-- my mom is Turkish) and my dad not paying child support he has become lost in the system. If I could ever find him I would love to meet him.

That's a shame that he's lost in the system.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
