And you're living proof of that!

Ouch! You must have me confused with Vincent. There is no photographic evidence of my former mulletdom...except maybe a yearbook photo or 2...

It was funny how topless and tassles brought Richard back! How'd he know???

A Irishman went to London and found himself in the Underground late one night.

Seeing a notice "DOGS MUST BE CARRIED ON THE ESCALATOR", he moaned to himself, "And where am I going to find a dog at this hour of the night?"

Yes, our Great Founding Member! We didn't even have time to pull out the red carpet, arrange the bugle players or nuthin'! Like a great emporer arriving amoungst his subjects. King Richard...after all, "Richard" means strong ruler. :D

No need for pomp and circumstance...I blush easily :unsure:

Richard= unimaginative parents (father is Richard also...but with a different middle name....curious, but true :huh:)

I must be getting old, and out of practice (not here enough) I can't keep up with all the silliness...from now on I will just parachute in, oblivious to history...and doomed to repeat it :(

oh yes, me too!!! :rolleyes:

rooting against the 'dogs....Um, methinks, yes, why not??? :P As I told my friend the other day.....we must root against them, because that is all this LOSER town has....and she said, yes, just like a tiny southern town, with only the football team....but I pondered this concept and replied - NO - becuase those tiny southern towns would at least have fabulous old brick buildings and houses, and lots of bucolic, lush landscapes and greenery. (she heartily agreed with me)

Here, we got nothin'. A big, sprawling, polluted, charm-less expanse of NUTTIN!!!! (why do I live here?)

I'll take any fruity martini drink....in my dreams (you know- the ones where I don't have Lyme).

Excellent Irish jokes! And mullets...ahhhhhh.....yes- Vincent was the mullet man...no longer.

I think I had the female equivalent of the mullet in high school...the pat Benatar look (yes- business in the front, party in the back!). I believe it was also referred to as "the hockey hair cut" around here! Not sure why....

Richard you don't need to keep up but you better parachute in OFTEN. If Richard= unimaginative parents, Beverly=Clueless parents and now that I live in a town that shares my name, the jokes are endless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: They were EVEN worse in high school, as I'm sure you can imagine.

MASCULINE AND FEMININE

**************************

FREEZER BAGS: They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again. They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong buttons.

TYRES: Tyres are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated.

HOT AIR BALLOONS: Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their arse

SPONGES: These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.

WEB PAGES: Female, because they're constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.

TRAINS: Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.

EGG TIMERS: Egg timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS: Male, because in the last 5000 years, they've hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.

THE REMOTE CONTROL: Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know which buttons to push, he just keeps trying

ohhhhhhhhhh most excellent Nikki.

tYres. :lol:

:huh:

I got nothin' funny today. I sense the slight but still distinct ennui of the soul is creeping in - this happens every fall. In some years it can be quite drastic, but this year I'm hoping for a mild case.

HARRUMPH.

I'm right with ya, Susan. Every fall brings me here for a time...a classic funk. But here there is an obvious explanation: metres-high snowdrifts, dark by 5 pm, and -20...it's cooooommmmmingggg........

oh my Lord Emily!! :o Snow.....I don't think I could manage snow and minus 20..... :huh: It's a gorgeous time of year here but still......we are heading into the constant blanket of damp fog for months and months. Causes a tendency of cocoon-ing for Dingy. :ph34r:

elye Community Regular

Y'know, I would take the falling snow over fog any day. And we don't hit -20 too often. I would also take the crisp, dry days at -5 that we see most of the winter over a winter of cool dampness and fog. Whoa, that sounds REALLY depressing.

Hey!! It's the silly thread....

In his early years, my dad was a radio announcer. When he walked under a bridge, you couldn't hear him talk.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will not have snow on my wedding day.

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm.  Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate. Oats, wheat, barley, soy, lentils, peas, chickpeas, rice, and buckwheat, almonds, apples, cherries, apricots, grapes, avocados, spinach, and pistachios.

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
