I pictured our World Vision sponsored child (from Bolivia, eight year-old boy) as little, skinny, olive skin, black longish hair. We finally got a pic of him. Heavy, light hair and skin...looks fairly affluent, actually. :huh: Hmmmmmm...

:o hmmmmmmmmmm indeed! a "heavy" World Vision child? Is he perhaps putting your good money toward expensive Air Jordans? or a new Ipod?

The yeti can go with Mary Kate . . . she just needs to borrow Ashley's hairy coat.

Yes Janet, universal EWWWWWWWWW. Tired of Lance switching and rejecting all of his blondes. and yes, we'll give the hairy coat to Mary Kate - Yeti won't know the difference.

Poor amanda......all of these last-minute additions to the seating chart....the girl will go mad. :huh:

My grandfather. I look like my grandfather...odd that you should know him

:huh:

:o why yes, it's all coming back to me.................... he's been hanging around gated communities in the Fresno area, hasn't he!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

the gate/brick wall - - hard to tell - whether to keep its sterile residents enclosed.....or the

truly mad from getting in...............

p'raps a little of both....aside from cOeliac self-mutilating wanderer (shall I invite him in today? I MUST know his story) and barfing neighbors, everyone's the same here..........................drives me MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :blink:

If it makes you feel any better . . . our first dog was a lumpy dog. One of the lumps was "funny". They did the needle biopsy and said it was OK. Then a little while later when it still wasn't acting right, they decided they needed to take it out. It was still OK - we just ended up having to pay for both procedures and who's to say that if they had left it in that it wouldn't have turned into something not good at all . . .

Janet - a candy hangover. OMG. I ahve an ersatz blue-coloUred ice cream hangover. ugh. It was really hard to hand out the ice cream, so I just ate it. :huh:

What's the big deal, just drop a scoop into each open bag. :rolleyes:

OK - so now I have a gross story to tell you. We have had a lot of poop conversations at our house. Did you go poop today? Was it all together or a bunch of little pieces? Did it float or sink? Now I get totally unsolicitated information yelled from the bathroom. MoM!! I went poop!!! It's green!! What does that mean???!! And I yell back: It means you ate blue ice cream yesterday!!

TriticusToxicum Explorer
Oh....so...that isn't Susie in her avatar?

Speaking of avatars--I'm always so amused at how completely inaccurate my mental picture is of a person when I've never seen them. Richard, you are NOTHING like I pictured you. I've been seeing a big guy (like, linebacker-type), fair hair, regular features, perhaps a beard now that I think of it...I'm always way off. I pictured our World Vision sponsored child (from Bolivia, eight year-old boy) as little, skinny, olive skin, black longish hair. We finally got a pic of him. Heavy, light hair and skin...looks fairly affluent, actually. :huh: Hmmmmmm...

Linebacker! :P

Punter maybe! :lol:

:lol:

I have those conversations here, too. Only, no one answers back. :lol:

SARAH thinks she's a bad mother because there was a half-liter of chocolate vomit. I say, BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sign of a really good day, the chocolate-y vomit. :rolleyes:

:o why yes, it's all coming back to me.................... he's been hanging around gated communities in the Fresno area, hasn't he!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

...er, he's been dead since 1988, so that might confirm the zombie angle. The only way to tell for sure (aside from a cheek swab) is to offer him your car. If he drives on the extreme right of the road at a steady 25 mph it is likely gramps. (I think he still owes some folks a new mailbox)

Hey Richard, how long ago was that picture of you and RG taken? He was looking quite pale there. He must have already started his downhill slide.

I can't recall. He visited almost every day. Like clockwork. i think that particular picture was taken some happy hour at the local pub. The gang and i convinced him to join us for some brews and Emerald nuts. He probably looks pale relative to me and my George Hamilton tan. :rolleyes:

You just THOUGHT you had a George Hamilton tan . . .

You'ld rather forget or you actually can't remember?

And WTH is that?

Gawd!!! ....everyone thinks they looked tanned until they stand next to him :rolleyes:

Oh, I remember it all too well. If you ever run into GH in your travels, and he offers to show you his tanning bed - JUST SAY NO! I'll leave it at that.

...and THAT is the newest GMO Butterball (note the abnormally large breasts) :o

OMG - I just realized who Richard looks like (and I don't mean the chicken (?) photo........

Which begs the next question............

OMG - Richard/Chad - are you not ALSO in the witness protection program, hiding out in some small town in NY? And if that be the case - do you THINK you should be posting PHOTOS of yourself for all the world to see?! :blink:

I guess another move is in my near future. Off to roam with the yeti...

:huh:

my FAVORITE part of the day!

Do you have any brains in the fridge? Zombies LOVE brains :o Hot dogs will do if you don't have any brains on hand.

I think it may be time for you to strike up a conversation with Mr. Shufflufigus. Who knows, perhaps he's some wealthy old man in the early stages of dementia...it's never too late to meet Mr. Right... :huh:

Ummmmm . . . . with Robert Goulet (or therebouts) :huh:

elye Community Regular

Richard, the Witness Protection PrograMME gives you choices as to where you will relocate...Ottawa has been a wonderful new home for me. Can be cool, however...

Bob and Vince aren't together up there...Bob Goulet is in his OWN special place in Heaven, where the beautiful voices go. Ya know, on gossamer wings, cherubic bugling, all that stuff :)

BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes, this is my plan....offering up the plate of what brains I have left to entice, then will charm him with transfixing gab.......

I can see it now...Thriller in Susie's neighborhood...where's Vincent Price when you need him! :P

a confession: :ph34r:

I downloaded "Thriller" onto Ipod yesterday - put it on the "walking" playlist.....excellent walking tempo....it was my paean to Halloween...........

how embarassing.....

Other embarrassing songs on the Ipod:

"Hot in Herre" by - Nelly? (why IS it spelled/pronounced like that? is it his metal teef?)

"wannabe" - Spice Girls

"I want it That Way" - Backstreet Boys (reminds me of my niece, summer when she was 16 and lived with me)

"Rapper's Delight" - The Sugarhill Gang

"Hollaback Girl"

"gettin jiggy with it"

"Bust a Move" - who knows

:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

and that's the entire list of my embarassing songs.

Good gawd, look at the time...........heading out now............

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you 
    • Colleen H
      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      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". 
    • trents
      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.
    • trents
      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.
