They Might be Giants....SO much well-written fun. Moxy Fruvous are as good, as clever, and every bit as toe-tapping. Home-grown boys you must check out if you've never heard their stuff. The King of Spain, in particular.

Oops missed this part!

(It couldn't be some insidious plan to up the post count! <30 posts from p300? :o )

Wait a minute, wait a minute...my dad was at our party with us, portraying the Dalai Lama. Unless...now, wait, I'm confused...maybe that really WAS the Dalai :o . Oh, Gawd...I kept calling him a crazy old fart. Ah, so that pained expression wasn't just some really convincing emoting on Dad's part. Naaaah, it had to have been my dad. Old Tibetian monks cannot dance like that...and drink! Whew!

oh my gaaaawd :lol: :lol: :lol:

oh the hell you say!!! You should have SEEN said crazy old fart (the Dalai Lama, or just DL as I call him) at last year's 46th Annual Chuck Norris Wee Cotillion of the Tasseled-Hassled Yeti and Friends. Um, we don't really talk about that night :ph34r: Don't even ASK Janet what she was doing under the table there.

Since we all intimately know and love Superweasel, "she" can justifiably be used, here...

Sigh...wish we had Whole Foods up here. Would love to drop DH off just about anywhere for a beer and game-watching. Wait...I drink wine...and I watch more games than he. Where can he drop me off? :lol:

Ahhh yes, I remember that night as well . . . that was the night that I tried to call each and everyone of you and everyone had some sort of excuse as to why they were "unavailable"!!!

Let's see if I can remember those excuses . . .

OMG!!!!! :lol: I feel like I read these 5 min ago and I'm STILL laughing!

:lol::lol:

And HEY!!

ALL instruments need a little tuning now & again . .. . . ..& again .. .. . & again

GREAT cross-referencing, Tom!! Aunt Em and tornadoes. Neither obtuse nor oblique...I love it. I also loved Auntie Em. She just was not in that film enough. And neither was Bert Lahr, my hero...

"If I only had the noive..."

Well, Duh, Tom! Of course the pronoun is in the neutral if it refers to an inanimate object..."the picture" requires "it". Are you going to dangle, next?! Tuning instruments is acceptable...but no dangling...! :lol:

Gad....I hope he was praying........

Well you'd better beLIEVE he was praying.....there was a look of mad, heretofore unseen, wild-eyed terror about him.....oh no, was not the yeti he afeared (they both being from the Him-ahl-yas and all)......'twas the emcee, The Hoff, and after the hamburgers were served. Now THAT, as we know, was a sight..... :huh:

Come to my place, we have wine here ":)

ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come here! I have wine! And a big screen!!! but it'll have to be American football - SO pedestrian. :lol:

Cotillion :lol:

I love the way this board teaches me about American culchure :lol:

oh you betcha!!!! and it's ALL true, every word we write here, you know!! ;):lol:

oh good gawd :lol:

took a break from shampooing. Nearly done. Stinking and sweaty. Oh, that would be Benicio, not me. HE's doing the carpets. I am washing the hair of Dr. McSteamy, Eric Dane. ;) oh....another knock at the door.....probably Emily's dad again......he keeps trying to trick me. but oh no, I ain't buyin' it. :lol:

Benicio could not possibly stink- he perspires the wafty arroma of TES-TOS-TEROOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, I heard Emily's dad (who really IS the DL) does too but neither are quite as potent as Chuck's.

Ahhh...the cotillion. Was I there? :huh: Please tell me I was and I had fun!

MOXY FRUVOUS? Groovous name...just looked 'em up...they look fun. I like this line:

UHM Craig (I mean Tom)- YOU STILL HAVEN"T ANSWERED MY QUESTION

Do you or do you NOT lie (with inflatable dolls)?

I think the next queen should have a court!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Could I be a member of the court?

We could ask Boy George to entertain at our crowning too!

Darn210 Enthusiast

So . . . Just a question . . . Are we going to get like a dozen posts from Emily as she makes a mad dash for page 300? She just wants the Open Original Shared Link, you know. She doesn't want any of that heavy responsibility that Bev has had to shoulder!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Guess no one is making the mad dash. Might just be the two of us tonight!

I am making centerpieces for my table, want to grab some wine and have some fun?

tom Contributor

Gah!

I try to reply to a post . .. . .you were there . .. . .and you .. . .and you Auntie Em!

"If I only had the noive..."

PUHt 'em up! PUHt 'em uhhhhhhp!

-and-

PUHll an axe on me, eh???

Well, Duh, Tom! Of course the pronoun is in the neutral if it refers to an inanimate object..."the picture" requires "it".

Oh dear .. .. .you've missed the conundrum .. . ..

In my attempt to say I LOL when I see Dingy's avatar, the it vs. her issue is more whether to, in a pronoun-y sense, refer to the avatar (it) or to Super Weasel (her).

Perhaps there's no conundrum a'tall.

tom Contributor

But again w/ the tri-syllabic mountains?

I'm not sure I can buy into this one.

Him-ah-lay-ya . . . .. . .ooooh that has potential for the single entendre :o

Tom, did I read (a long ways back) that you are an engineer?

Amanda - I don't think we've done too bad at all for a weekend.

I just want to make sure that I am not the Queen of page 300. I don't want to wear any stinkin' tiara. And being in charge of two kids is enough for me. I don't want to have to rule the likes of this lot! :angry::huh::lol::lol:

tom Contributor

Well, we're already WELL over a Saturday quota.

Hmmm 5th post from here is p300??

Dare to be Royal!!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor. 
    • knitty kitty
      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."  
    • Scott Adams
      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
