Actually, I've referenced Ptaoughmhmn elsewhere two or three times, and used our special Psilly Pspelling. Imagine what others were thinking whilst reading my post.. .. ."Wow - - which member is THIS? Must be from Latvia or Iceland". And then trying to figure out how his name would be pronounced..... :lol::lol:

Hello, Sillies,

Another beautiful afternoon, and I'm out on the deck with three furry friends (Tuppence is inside for some reason).

And where is Sarah? I speak of Silly Sarah--I know where our wayward employee Sarah is. That Sarah is due August 2.

They must be working Amanda hard. She has gone more than 24 hours without posting, although I did see her lurking earlier while I was also lurking. ;)

Nothing else to add for now.

Okay...I've got another query from The Ripper. This one is FASCINATING!

Just imagine:

It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates. For whom would you vote ?

Candidate A.

Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B.

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C

He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be our choice?

After everyone has chosen, I'll report the last part of this exercise that Jack gave me. He's keeps me thinking, this kid.....

Pat *giggle* don't be scared.........embrace it :lol:

:lol: :lol: saw this post again, and for some reason I read this, whilst looking at Nik's av, and saw piggle.

Not so strange, really, as Lauren calls me Piggle, Pizzle (who knows what this is? raise yer hands! i'm quite sure pOeter knows) and other variations.......Pig Bomb, Piggie, Piglet, etc.

OMG. Em, this is clearly a trick question posed by the Ripper, so, I'll just cast my vote at this time for the whiskey drinking opium user who sleeps til noon. :blink::lol:

I was working myself hard. I am off tomorrow......I took a day to myself to escape the work stress. I wanted to get everything I could cleaned up!!!!!

I'm going with B. At least he's well rested.

jerseyangel Proficient

I pick A.

Don't ask me why....

Why?

Darn210 Enthusiast

I, too, feel this is a trick question . . . we are OBVIOUSLY suppose to pick C. So I will pick C so we know what it means if you pick C . . . out of the other two, I prefer B as it appears he doesn't start drinking until the end of the day.

tom Contributor

Ok Em . .. .I'm not sure I trust vegetarians, but I'll bite & take C, knowing the Ripper will trick me somehow.

Yes, where IS Alex :unsure:

I'm here! I guess it's been awhile since I last posted, eh? Didn't realize I'd been away so long. Some of the non-Sillyville posts have been getting on my nerves lately and I've been rather irritable and easily annoyed of late so I took a leave of absence to spare you all from my pissy attitude. Basically, I could use a good smack on the head ;) .

Okay...I've got another query from The Ripper. This one is FASCINATING!

I pick B, cuz it seems like he's someone who could hold his own in any kind of world leaders disagreement. And at least he drinks in the evening, not while in office.

Ah! Shakespeare used a pizzle in his imagery now and then...definitely in Henry IV, Love's Labour's Lost.... ..

Wonder if they make slings for these things... ..

Okay, Okay......

We all know these candidates.....

A. Franklin D. Roosevelt

B. Sir Winston Churchill

C. Adolf Hitler

Hi Alex--sorry that you've been feeling pissy and all....I get that way sometimes, too. Hope you are feeling better and sillier now :)

OHHHHHH . . . I HEAR ya in that one!!! I've got a couple of favoUrite posters that usually annoy me and what do I do? . . . I almost always go read what they say so that I can tell my self "I knew they were going to say that!!!" and be all annoyed again.

jerseyangel Proficient

Guess what? I just averted a potential gluten disaster :o

I was thawing some pork chops in the microwave, planning to top with veggies and some salt-free stewed tomatoes. I was chopping the veggies, and re-read the can....I missed this in the store--natural flavors :o:o

It's a store brand, so I checked on-line and it was not on the gluten free list....called CS, but the poor guy who answered was clueless. He offered to put through "an inquiry", but I was in the middle of making dinner <_<

So....I scrapped the original plan, froze the veggies and am going with baked chops with roasted potatoes.

That was a close one :)

They are also dog treats. We sell them. The treats are also known as bullwrinkles, and as steer sticks. Full size they are almost 30 inches, but are popular when cut into 12- 8- or 5-inch pieces.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Oh, and here is some doggie news . . .

I took Josie for her annual check-up/vaccination and what do they find?????? Her knee cap is popping in and out of place. I hadn't noticed any problems when she runs so for the moment, no action needed. However, if (and I think this is more likely when) she does start having issues, she's going to need surgery. Now does anybody else here feel like this is somehow Emily's fault???!!!??? <_<:lol: Baaahhhh!!!!! It's a good thing she's so cute!!!! (I'm talking about Josie, not Emily). ;):lol:

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
