It's the wedge cut that every female in America had after she was in the 1976 Olympics. See new avatar. :P

:lol: That picture is so-o-o-o funny!

I have naturally curly hair, which was always the bane of my existance back then. To acheive the look, I used Dippity-Do and wrapped my hair around my head at night. Worked pretty well, too :lol:

I wanted to BE Dorothy hamill so bad! Still do.. she's so cute and perky yet elegant!

I love the band idea and accept the position of lyricist. So we have a singer, Miss Olivia, who also plays guitar and daniel who plays guitar. So now all we need are drums (pots and pans will do) and bass. AND A NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A very clever name. :P

They could be Olivia and the Dingos!

Or Olivia and the Silly yaks

or Swinging From Chandeliers

BTW isn't the word DINGO such a fun word, and so useful for so many things? I do like to say it :lol::lol:

:blink: Sounds like something you'd do at a barn dance!! :lol:

:lol: Dippity-do was a very strong, stiff gel-like goop in a jar, used to "manage" hair. I guess one of the first hair gel products. VERY stiff and crazy, I believe that hair could virtually NOT move with that stuff on. makes me laugh to think of it. :)

Um, did you all know that I can sing? and pretty well? :ph34r: I can sing harmony for the band, on the days when we do Bluegrass and old blues (Dinah Washington, etc.). ;)

You really don't want me to sing ... but I can play the flute. I always have to remind myself at Mass NOT to sing if there's not a flute part for a piece of music ... there's a microphone right in front of my face, singing would be a very bad idea!!

I spoke to my Olivia today (niece) and she chose your name Susie Q. I told her we were naming a band after her because at 3 EVERYTHING IS ABOUT HER! :ph34r:

Susie you can sing? You are talented. I want Patti on tambourine. Somehow that's why I picture :P

Carla on flute, Susie and Olivia singing, Daniel on guitar, Patti on tambourine, now all we need is a bada%*& drummer and bassist.

I'll volunteer to be a stage dancer- I do lovely interpretive dance :ph34r::P Almost as good as

but Angus much prefers my Open Original Shared Link

I'm also a good roadie (read Groupie). I've seen every band my husband has ever been in!

Hope everyone had a good NYE and let's get this thread back on track and laughing again. :P :P

Last night we had a toga party and my BIL showed up after putting the kids to bed in his son's dinosaur sheet. Almost peed my pants.

Today his son and Mookie, the cat, had a stand off on the changing table. They were both just sitting there staring at each other so Cooper dope slapped Mookie (Cooper is 2), Mookie dope slapped Coop back and it went on till they each slapped each other 3 times. I would have KILLED to have seen this!

THIS IS PRETTY FUNNY and this thread needed to be resurrected!

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the

Earth and populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.

Then using God's great gifts, Satan created Ben and

Jerry's Ice Cream and Krispy Creme Donuts. And Satan said, "You want chocolate with that?"

And Man said, "Yes!" and Woman said, "and as long as you're at it, add some sprinkles." And they gained 10 pounds. And Satan smiled.

And God created the healthful yogurt that Woman

might keep the figure that Man found so fair. And

Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat, and

sugar from the cane and combined them. And Woman

went from size 6 to size 14.

So God said, "Try my fresh green salad." And Satan

presented Thousand-Island Dressing, buttery croutons and garlic toast on the side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.

God then said, "I have sent you heart healthy

vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them." And Satan brought forth deep fried fish and chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man gained more weight and his

cholesterol went through the roof.

God then created a light, fluffy white cake, named

it "Angel Food Cake," and said, "It is good." Satan

then created chocolate cake and named it "Devil's

Food."

God then brought forth running shoes so that His

children might lose those extra pounds. And Satan

gave cable TV with a remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And Man and

Woman laughed and cried before the flickering blue

light and gained pounds.

Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in

fat and brimming with nutrition. And Satan peeled

off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man gained more pounds.

God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume

fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite. And

Satan created McDonald's and its 99-cent double

cheeseburger. Then said, "You want fries with that?" And Man replied, "Yes! And super size them!" And Satan said, "It's all good." And Man went into cardiac arrest.

God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

Then Satan created HMOs. :P :P :P :P

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
