:lol: :lol: :lol: YETI POETRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There once was a Yeti from Spain

His inseam was giant it was claimed

Yet when Emily measured him

It accidentally pleasured him

And now he no longer

Complains!

To some it may seem,

The point's the inseam,

That measurement down to the ankle.

But I must submit,

In truth and to wit,

The subject is that which does dangle.

:P

Ahhh! Hilarious, Bev...I OFTEN think of our Frisking the Wookie thread, one of the funniest, I would say, in recent memory. I believe, no surprise, that Richard began that particular madness, as well...

Emily now a yeti-pleasurer! Mygawd, just how many hats can I be expected to wear? :lol:

Yeti confetti, thrown into the air,

From a great white beast, with billowing hair,

He lopes down the aisle, to a sweet wedding chorus,

And ends his parade,

In the arms of Chuck Norris.

Okay, Bev...you'll be with me on this one: The new phrase to coin for 2007...

LET THE YETI LEAD.

We have to officially define it:

To act on a hunch:

"She booted me out...she could somehow tell that I'd been with someone else. She let the yeti lead..."

OR

To lose all sense of propriety:

"Man, lookit the loser she's making out with! Talk about letting the Yeti lead!"

OR

A suggestive invitation:

"C'mon...follow me. Let my Yeti lead".

OR

To have a sudden bathroom crisis:

"Gaaaack!! Outta my way...Yeti leading...Yeti leading...!"

Let's see......it could be "The Yeti was leading that parade."

As in:

"She booted me out...she could somehow tell that I'd been with someone else. The yeti was leading that parade.."

"Gaaaack!! Outta my way...Yeti leading my parade...Yeti leading my parade...!"

OR it could mean a place where lots off BS (poop) gets slung around!

As in:

The Yeti led the parade in that presidential debate.

OR

We had a couple of drinks and let the Yeti lead THAT parade.

Or seductive:

Let my yeti lead your parade, baby!

Emily & Jess have incapacitated meeeeeee!

Way to start a subtopic Em!! <can i call u em?>

I'm glad I'm not still at my coffeehouse. Earlier I'm sure some there had to think I was out of my mind, barely containing what could've been minutes of wild giggles.

(Hey!!! I guess this means the perfuming effects weren't so bad after all! Yay! :) )

I'd love to add to the "Let the Yeti Lead" definitions & examples but I need to calm down and probably eat. <phew! catching breath finally>

Edit P.S. OMG Bev too! The tears have restarted!

Oh Daughter_of_TheSea!!!!!!!

I'd think an artfully arranged variety would be purrrrrrrrrr-fect. (Yeti's are known to almost purr w/ the right under-chin scritch)

But I must admit, I'd yield to the taste of someone more aesthetically inclined.

Plenty o' Yeti to go around!!!

P.S. Do you also have a bucket of shark's teeth? My dad used to live in Venice FL and would find them all the time.

P.P.S. I still can't try to add to the "Let the Yeti Lead" theme w/out near incapacitive (incapaciTAtive?) laughter . . . . :lol:

"Stinky hair"????? :emoticon-pinching-own-nose:

Oh no, that won't do at ALL for Amanda's nuptials!! :o

I'll get out the full raingear & walk the hominid beast through the carwash mySELF if that's what it takes!

Stinky? Not on MY watch! I won't allow it!! <_<

And I'm now in that curious position of wanting to clean up some before the professional housecleaners show up tomorrow :lol:

(but is IS mostly just moving things so they have access to what really needs attn)

I would also like my Coon cat to be part of our parade....can someone carry him on a pillow like the king he thinks he is?

And we should get HR Puff n Stuff too!!!!

elye Community Regular

:lol::lol::lol: Excellent...My 10 year-old just huffed off to bed after he sat in front of his math homework, doodling, playing with his calculator, clearly avoiding the job ahead. I had been walking by, telling him to get it done. Finally, I stood up from said computer, walked over to his workdesk and calmly said, "Jack...if you don't lead this yeti....who will?!" Beautiful. Interesting how Yetis and Wookies are noticeably similar, and here both appear...too tired to make any humoUrous sense of this maintenant. Will ponder it in bed. No postulating while I'm asleep! No fair, don't wanna miss a thing! :lol:

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
