I like Ewan but I LOVE Colin (firth).

Colin Firth is a hottie, too. Embarassing admission: I only watch Bridget Jones diary for the scene toward the end where Colin and Hugh Grant get into the fist fight over Renee Zelwegger. That was hot.

I think he's not married because he's a horn dog. That's a southeastern term. :ph34r: Is it allowed to say horn dog?

Horn dog :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I LOVE that phrase!!!!!!!!! Alright Hugh, quit cranking out the baloney and settle down (how could he NOt marry Elizabeth Hurley? She was/is gorgoeus!).

Colin needs to marry our Susie and if she's unavailable then I think he should marry the woman he was in love with in Love Actually. I LOVE that movie!

Nope, not just a southeastern term . . . also midwest term. Maybe it's a small town or redneck term?!?

Said out of context, it might not sound so good but one of my favorite phrases is

Everybody wishes they were ME! ;) (Said sarcastically/ironically to make fun of myself or current situation)

Hmmm, I can't think of any sayings that include "coinkidink!" Of course, only dorks actually say coinkidink. Yeah, I know what I'm admitting to. ;)

Janet, WHAT in the world is your daughter doing in your avatar? It looks very industrious! She looks sooo much like you.

Welp, I'm off to make dinner. Don't talk about hotties while I'm gone. :D

So many quotations have stayed with me over the years, and it's impossible to pick a favorite. The wittiest, I think, was by (who else?) my hero, Winston Churchill:

Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

Hugh must have commitment issues, or issues of some variety......

I was thinking "favorite phrase" was something you say all the time :huh: , so in the e-mail I said I didn't have a favorite phrase ....which is so not true, I have MANY!

At the moment I like:

"If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten"

OK- I find this very funny in light of all our talk of absinthe, insanity, creativity and gluten-addled brains:

One of Vincent van Gogh's last landscapes, considered a highlight among this year's fall art offerings, has failed to sell at auction.

"The Fields (Wheat Fields)" had been expected to sell for between $28 million and $35 million, Sotheby's said before the Wednesday evening sale.

The work, painted in early July 1890 in Auvers-sur-Oise, France, may be the last landscape painted by van Gogh, who died later that month. The painting hung above the artist's bed as he lay dying at a French inn.Van Gogh is believed to have finished the painting, which depicts wheat fields swaying in the breeze under a blue sky, weeks before he died in a town near Paris on July 29, 1890, at the age of 37. He died two days after going to a field and shooting himself in the chest.

Even Van Gogh couldn't sell gluten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Geez, I go offline for a while and look what I miss.

I was reading and reading on Saturday and Sunday. Yes, I read the thread from page 202 to this one. I need to get a life.

I have no idea what Scott has read of this incredible journey. I came here on my own, and have been absorbed into the vortex, spending hours and hours reading in the last few days.

You are all absolutely nuts. I guess that is why I fit in here. LOL. My dry sense of humoUr often gets lost in the written word, so to avoid p*ssing people off I am careful about what I write online.

Who is looking after the Yeti? I found something in my yard today. DNA testing is beyond my means, but I wonder? Should I treat is as something sacred, or just compost it?

If the parade will have a yeti, will we need sweepers after that float. I clean up the parking lot in front of my store regularly, but how big a shovel will I need for yeti droppings?

It looks like the Sillyville vortex has sucked me in.

I think I am here to stay. God help us all (especially me :o ).

Peter, I think you are the only one who has read every word since pg 202! :lol:

I don't get most of the stuff here .... but I attribute that to the fact that my brain has been on vacation for quite some time now .... also to the fact that as people type, the writing seems to shrink and I miss some of it ...

I do appreciate your breaking up your post for the Lymies around here!

I don't think Scott has ventured into this thread much ... he's turning a blind eye on us ... at least we can hope.

I hope you have something the size of a snow shovel for the Yeti ...

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
