Sorry, we can't have the Boy Scouts and MJ in the same parade. :o

I just got off the phone with him, Michael Jackson says he'll stay in Bahrain, has some more skin-bleaching sessions and also said he was too afraid of the yeti (but in fact HAS been doing some hyperbaric treatments w/ sacred yeti scat that he dug up on Neverland).

:lol:

Hey! Did some quick research. The Australian term for their mysterious hairy bipoedal hominid is not Yeti (that's Nepal), but Yowie. Much nicer...better for the parade. Jess, some new stanzas, please? :lol:

Um . . . you're 46?!?! You HONESTLY do not look a day over 36. So is living with Dingos the true Fountain of Youth?

I accidentally glutened myself on Wednesday evening (with the stupidest mistake in the history of Celiac Disease) and I was finally able to get some sleep last night. Not sure if it was the gluten or my crazy blood sugar but I had some really weird dreams. But the general theme of these dreams was a very odd, rather perverse parade! So I just wanted to report that all of this silliness made it into my messed up dreams!

Thanks for all of the funniness. It does a body good. I can't believe I'm laughing within 48 hours of ingesting gluten.

Once the hellish first 24 hours were over I decided I was going to try and fight the glutening and just carry on but my brain and my tummy aren't on board with that <_< . So I'm heading back to bed. Have fun with all the funniness. Thanks for the much needed giggles.

uh

"Who's the guy in the big fur coat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who's on top of the rainbow float?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who can tip the biggest boat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Hey! Who ate Chuck Heston's goat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

ok, got a little lame towards the end.

or all the way through,

but come on! How many poems about giant furry semimythical beasts can a girl come up with in one morning?

Maybe Jan Michael Vincent (the man with three first names) could do a fly-over in "Airwolf". I hear he's looking for work. (as are most of the stars from 80's tv favorites :huh: )

Can I drive David Hasselhoff's car KITT? I seem to remember him already assigned some other role in the parade.

Glad we can get your mind off the yuckiness--at least for a few minutes. Feel better, my friend :)

Yep--and I'll follow you in the Dukes of Hazzard car (the one with no working doors)--it'll be me and Chuck :wub:

He's leaving his big Dodge truck at home ;)

Nay, Nay, quite excellent, I say. (That actually sounds more like Dr. Seuss)

Plus, the goat had it coming.

Oh, and two thumbs up for School House Rock. One of my faves from kidhood. I just got the DVD for my kids a couple of months ago. My favorite was/is Open Original Shared Link

When they showed the table full of guns I almost died. What is wrong with people today. That place is not so far from Harrisburg. Maybe an hour.

I just hope it's the original version and not the re-make, please leave Jessica Simpson at home!

How's the packing going Patti?

I agree Susie Q does not look her age, no Susie Q hit 30-ish and just stopped. Susie Q defies time, and gravity. It's just something she does.

... a bit like Chuck Norris :P

I do vaguely remember that I once heard, through a friend of a friend, that the only thing that even comes close to sending a chill up the mighty Mr. Norris' spine is the thought of meeting the business end of the Iroquois Skull Crusher that hangs above Susie's mantle. Speak softly and carry BIG STICK! She defies time, gravity and any other laws of physics that she pleases! :o

:lol: SO not true. But, Alex, to answer your question, YES, the secret is living with dingos, AND lots of sunscreen. ;)

oh, and still having ACNE at 45 helps a lot :angry: (two months shy of 46)

Got carded until my late 30's, early 40's.....then gained over TWENTY-FIVE POUNDS removing gluten and, never get carded any more.

har-RUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

Ahem, excuse me, picture taken in July of this year. :P A confession: objects in photo appear younger than in person. In real life, I look quite haggard today, and would NOT insert a photo from this week, should one be taken (like the elusive yeti, I am hard to capture on film).

bloody miserable headache and puffy eyes today, just what IS in Coca Cola? :unsure: somebody tell me, because I NEVER drink them, and had half of one at lunch yesterday.....is it the chemicals? feel and look like rubbish today. and now must head out to Cheesecake FActory for lunch......ugh. Wish to remain in seclusion today.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
