OMG...What if DonnaB looks exactly like you, Originaldonna? Then what would we do?? :blink::wacko:

...

I immediately hit SHIFT when seated beside a smelly, lecherous man on the bus...

...NUM LOCK when I want that lazy, dazed, out-to-lunch feeling I suddenly get at my desk to linger for a while...

...and of course, the very useful PrtScrSysRq, which I smack when I just don't know what in hell is going on...

:lol: :lol:

Donna- YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!

Don't worry about it...it doesn't matter, honestly, if you can't, you know...get it up there. It really doesn't. We'll all understand... it happens to all guys at some point where they can't maintain maximum wittiness. Really, it's okay. Please don't be embarrassed or humiliated.

:lol:

Why can't my son wear a pair of jeans for more than one day . . . even if he had them on for only an hour or two? . . . but he'll wear the same pair of underwear and socks for a week if I don't tell him to change them????

A puzzle to be sure!

Donna! <waves to av> Nice pic! .. . .. . .. .why'd I think ALL your pix would be mid-guffaw?

It's funny how, at some point of many a Saturday morn, I suddenly think "oh damn .. .got up too late again to surprise Donna at WhFds!" :lol: :lol: :P

Not all mid-guffaw...no guy taking the picture screaming out "say sex" to make me laugh. :P I KNEW you'd never make it up that early. Oh, I mean wake up that early. :P

Would you say that we have a plethora of Donnas? A Donnapalooza perhaps?

:lol:

Ok, this is not a silly but I feel terribly sad for the dog who lives across the street.

OMGosh! That truly makes me upset! Dogs especially are pack animals and need to be part of something.

What would we do without the Oracle Peter. We must compose an ode to him and build him a temple. Peter- what kind of temple do you want?

Bev, this is SUCH a terrific idea. A large temple for worship and sacrificial ceremonies. It should be a stone construction, as Peter literally means "rock". And I will put forth that it be in the shape of a massive incisor, as Peter has single-handedly saved Gus's teeth, perhaps forever, with our new cleaning tool.

Tom- I overnight expressed "those pills" to you. You'll be able to get it up in no time and for long time! But if it STAYS up for too long, go to the ER and try' splaining that one.

"Doctor, I just cannot stop...my wittiness has gotten out of control. HELP ME!!" :lol:

Wait- is anyone else suspicious here- DO Amanda and Tom share the same john? :huh:<_<

As long as they are not using sharing the same John at the same time.

Were you adopted? Is there ANY way you could be my long-lost sister? take off, eh?

I am so glad to learn that I have a long lost twin. And I am even more pleased that it Open Original Shared Link.

:o Yes...Sharing johns is VERY tricky. Tom may be in the way, and Amanda won't be able to hover properly...

Well...I'm in because I had to use the men's room in a grocery store once :ph34r:

It almost happened again a couple years ago at Whole Foods...I was still pretty sick, and I was on line to use the ladies' room. Luckily, I did get in before I had to use the men's room again :P

I am so excited...have never been part of a plethora!

I'm glad your daughter is ok Emily :)

Keep in mind it's been very cold and we have had lots of snow. Sometimes I will see him sitting at the front door, which is away from the sun, staring at the door to go inside for a very long time. One time I spotted him outside laying on the snow covered driveway waiting to be let in because his old bones got tired of waiting at the front door on the concrete. In freezing temps, laying in the snow!

Those are now my least favorite people in the world...send the dog to me, I love dogs, I'll take care of him :(

Yay! I always assumed that the men's room was there for my convenience...for WHENEVER I didn't feel like waiting...took my Hubby a while to get used to this but now I know that I have always done this because there was a much higher motivation than just my mere comfort...I was because the Higher Powers KNEW that someday I would want to join this group :lol:

Julie - we all know you NEED a dog!!! Take the dog. Do a spectacular makeover using your new EM and make him look like a substandard poodle. This will also require brushing his teeth with some tri-headed contraption from Peter. If possible, teach him to bark with an accent (Le Bark). Tell the neighbors "No, I haven't seen your dog. I'm sure he'll end up with someome who will love him and cherish him". . . if only, huh? :(

I have to tell you, when we went to the museum on Saturday, there were racing team exhibits/booths along with the regular exhibits just for the weekend. So there ended up being a high male to female ratio . . . there was a LINE for the MEN'S ROOM and none for the Women's!!!! I've never seen that before!!

Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time. (Man, that movie cracks me up.)

Tom, come pee in Seattle:

Open Original Shared Link

Columbia Center (formerly Bank of America Tower), 701 Fifth Ave., ... the women's restroom on the 76th floor, with views of the Cascades, was named the second-best restroom in the country by the Cintas Corp. in 2005.

Does it count if you used the mens room in another country? And a man came in while you were there? :lol:

It happend in Mexico...

and did you happen to be quoting Monty Python at the time? perhaps "please fondle my buttocks" thinking it meant "Yo quiero un cigaretto".

Well, the goalie, like the quarterback, needs to be well protected by official rules . .. ..

. . .. Incidentally, the player did get two minutes, immediately.

:o Ohhhhhh there WAS a penalty!

How's Sophie doing?

Indeed! :lol:

Might I add that, at least in THAT restroom, the stalls weren't very tall. :lol:

I should get double points for having to go in the woods whilest battling the viscious "D".....

tom Contributor
After you go back in and put the seat down!!

1) never saw THAT in the rules

2) no worries - stalls all occupado so I went in the sink

3) ewwwwwwwww to #2

4) no need - didn't raise it in the first place

5) see #3

6) not w/ those guards there now!!!! <maybe you could distract them?>

Well, her head's swollen...from getting the MVP!! I was so proud of her for that one... :):)

She's still got a bit of a headache, but went to school today and seems her regular girly self. Thanks so much, all, for asking about my little netminder...

Indeed! :lol:

No surprise! Last year when we were there I noticed immediately that the men are all very Mayan: stocky and short. The stalls obviously reflect this.... :rolleyes:

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @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!
