putting binder away on the shelf storage above the desks. We have no room in our office, there is barely room underneath my desk for my feet. There are lab kits and stuff under there.

Oh Amanda, you can do better than that! Nobody will be able to verify you answer! :lol:

How about . . . she was getting ready to drop a water balloon on the person in the next cube?

Or . . . She was checking the next cube to see if anyone was there 'cause she was getting ready to let one rip?

Or . . . She was helping the other three technical trials people change the light bulb . . . How many trial techs does it take to change a light bulb? Four. One to change the light bulb and the other three to . . .document the side effects? . . . I don't know, anybody got a punch line? :huh:

:lol: Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine bottles and cans in the trunk, nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine bottles and cans. At ten cents a bottle and ten cents a can, we're pulling in five hundred dollars a man.....

Patti, I wish I had this song when I volunteered to go out with my daughter's hockey team on a bottle drive, knocking on doors. Would've been a GREAT marching song!

Okay, brainiacs...time for some dreaded MATH..... :( Speaking of daughter, she is struggling at the kitchen table as we speak with her algebra (shudder...). I've put in a heroic effort helping her, and I did stumble, correctly, through a couple of them. But this one we cannot get. It's beginning to haunt me, this final question:

A mother is three times as old as her daughter. Six years ago, she was five times as old as her daughter. How old are the mother and daughter now?

Owwww....my little brain...

Why can't they be giving our kids more interesting problems to solve?!

Robert Goulet is eating a container of emerald nuts. He gets it half eaten. If Richard Simmons then does fifty minutes of aerobics with him, and a minute of aerobic activity burns nine calories...

Y'know, something like that.

Last night, on some entertainment gossip show, they asked Wildenstein what she thought of Britney's new lip injection....her answer was uninteligible.......:huh:

I don't believe I'm familiar with her . . . and OMG what a sideshow! . . . and her dog looked scared to death of her! :ph34r:

Food--all kinds, today I brought in pepperoni and cheese and crackers, gluten-free for me and they enjoyed the crackers too.

With Halloween coming everyone brings in a bag of candy a day. So yesterday we had nerds, junior mints, and sweet tarts, smarties.

You guys can all join me at work, you all would fit right in.

OMG - here's something quite fun to to. Just google Jocelyn Wildenstein - you will NOT believe how beautiful and normal looking she once was, and what she became....it's been a fascination of my paltry little circle of friends for quite some time now. :lol:

x = daughter

y = mother

3x=y

(y-6)=5(x-6)

x=12

y=36

no no, you're wrong - -

it's this

x = 23784629

y = dgw899239

x + y + 9(weoi5y24nj459387snfkdh)

and so the answer is

x + 3rhwp;875ios837918y4 @&#%@&%#*&@#^*

THAT Is the correct answer. :P

Yes, Patti IS getting funnier!!! clearly she is delirious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Oh yes, you're quite correct. I see where I went wrong . . . forgot to cube the inverse of the factorial.

I can't think of anything I would want pluralized more than MATH. One is enough....

Thank you, Janet, Queen Algebra Woman! :lol: My daughter had said that her teacher wanted them to have only one unknown in each problem, so I was trying to figure it as daughter being x, mother being 3x. But your way works with a y, so she's done it that way. The hell with said mathS teacher, I say!

Give me dangling participles any day!

Yes--perfect for the bottle drive...except once you hear it, it's hard to get it out of your head :blink:

and her dog looked scared to death of her! :ph34r:

That's exactly what I thought. I've seen her before on Entertainment Tonight--sad.

x = daughter

y = mother

3x=y

(y-6)=5(x-6)

x=12

y=36

Oh, I got a little thrill there . . .

Wow--very impressive B)

Yes, Gus does possess this Mona Lisa-type stare. I cannot decide...he either looks quite refined and regal, or colossally stupid. :rolleyes:

Trying to get my two kids together for an avatar pic. Alas, my daughter keeps racing way, her hands over her head, shouting, "NO! NO! I've got zits!"

Gad, who doesn't? She may have zits, but she's also got her algebra done. And hey, why don't my kids ever have homework like, "find the dangling participles and split infinitives in the following sentences"...Then I could create the illusion that I'm brainy. All this math coming home, they think I'm rather dim...

oh holy heinosity! painting a house!! we will miss you. BTW I love Richard Simmons. not kidding. he's very entertaining, esp. on David Letterman. :lol:

I have a very heinous project of stripping old mahogany HUGE dining table and 10 large chairs that go with it, then distressing/painting all of this to look quite old and Scandinavian. in this stepford community I have a ONE-CAR garage. :huh: (absurd) So, the table will take up the entire garage for as long as it takes me to do it.

Helpers? anyone? I cannot seem to bring myself to do this horrid task. :blink:

Looking at her makes my face hurt. And I feel the need to apply chapstick. :unsure:

:huh:

or burn salve......

Yes, Gus's eyes DO follow you, don't they? like a painting in a Dickensian mansion.... and he DOES look regal!

all right, must head to that happy place we know as TArget. :rolleyes: But it can be very dangerous, so this will be a very quick trip, STRAIGHT to the container area. In and out, no diversions. :ph34r:

Back later.

Gus looks quite the scholarly gentleman--he needs a pipe and a tweed jacket with patches on the elbows. Or thereabouts, since I don't think dogs have elbows :unsure:

I have a picture of Allo that actually resembles Gus in this pose. Gotta get to the other computer--the pic is there.....be right back.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
