Yes sillies I can be a little gutter girl (mind in the gutter) The board is acting funny tonight and I cant get mine fixed...I do hope it gets fixed soon.

OMG did I tell you about my one coworker who sits next to me? about a month ago she blurted out her salary and it was well more than the rest of us was making and the catch is she is a secretary. Anyhoo she barely does any of her assigned work, she spends most of the day on the phone or doing her bills and things for her 3 grown adult kids.....today she disappeared for almost an hour visiting a friend who works on the 6th floor, and then came back and spent the remaining hour of the afternoon on the phone giving her 25 yr old son love advice which I think is strange....a few of us have complained to my boss but she sees nothing wrong with it. To make it worse.....we are good friends with her and now that you know her salary it makes thing even more obnoxious....ugh! the drama of my office!

Thanks! It helps that no one heard all the affronted mutterings under the breath while I typed away...

Amazingly simple home remedies

1. If you're choking on an ice cube, simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat. Presto! The blockage will instantly remove itself.

2. Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold the vegetables while you chop.

3. Avoid arguments about lifting the toilet seat with the female members of your household by using the sink instead.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers - simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure on your veins. Remember to use a timer.

5. A mouse trap placed on top of your alarm clock will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives. Then you'll be afraid to cough.

7. You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

8. If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

And I suggest you go back and read the first few pages, maybe you need a refresher on bashing, because there was definitely name calling, and bashing going on. Closed minds are just that, closed. Exploring things only makes us more informed, no body is forcing anyone to take anything.

AND little missy, if you disagree with her then YOU are on of the close-minded sheep NOT taking this wonder drug.

They're in Kenya. The wife, Michelle, used to work in the lab next to mine. Extremely nice person, but not overly given to oddness. I've never met the husband, but he is NOT what I expected her to be married to. It would be like Ursa being married to a combination of persons on this forum... :huh:

Gawd--we had to run out for a little while, and I came back to drama :o Sarah, you are a brave soul with a ton of restraint :D The other night I posted to Alex that many times I'd like to comment on things but don't dare. I'd get too upset and I hate getting into arguments.

I remember one time, I got me butt reamed--but good--for somephin' I said on the subject of communion wafers.....never again <_<

You guys are too phunny with all the commentary :D

Me buttons were all back in place when I got back, too, so that's good B)

I think the print screen helped explain what others were seeing. Within 5 minutes of sending it, all was resolved.

Patti - I think we have all learned that lesson, one too many times. ;) I do remember those threads :)

I think Scaught just considers Laura computer-savy and the rest of us are not . . . we just didn't know what we were doing . . . but if it didn't work for Laura, then something must have been wrong. We call that being the teacher's board administrator's pet. :lol:

After being called "board administrator's pet," I have severe emotional scarring.

I'll now need to be seen by the board's counselor.

Patti, are you available to help?

Arrrrggghhh!!

Caught by a cross-over poster :o

Sounds like someone who is planning to change their wardrobe :P

You might want to dig around the yard just in case Weezee buried some negotiable securities, matured bonds or Krugerrands.

:wacko:

My great-grandma used to bury her money in the backyard........she didn't trust banks.

Crap-ola!!!!! :angry: I lost the other quotes!.........stay tuned..........

Lisa, can you explain to me how I can unfurl the garden hose when I pull it out to water the plants and NOT have it all tangle up, so that I don't have to walk all the way back over and UNtangle it? <_<:huh::lol:

Sounds like a problem for me hubby. If you were to ask HIM, he would tell you that the trick is not in the UNfurling, but rather the FURLING of the hose <It's a poifektly good word, so leave it alone :P >....DH is a stickler for how a hose should be wound....that also goes for extension cords, ropes,.....

OMG LIsa!!!!!!!!! :lol::lol:

I'm totally loving your self explanatory signs!!!!!!!!

....but WAIT!!..........there is someone who I can try these out on!!!

......one of the evil pheral pharkwits is deaf (remember them???, the gang of teens causing trouble in my street)

...will he understand me???....Is ASL different to BSL (that's British Sign language :rolleyes: NOT the other words that BS are associated with :lol: )

Maybe Lisa could teach me

''Kindly bog off to yer own street'' :unsure: (maybe with more profanities ? ;) )

I do believe BSL is different, but there is probably enough similarities that he would get the drift.......although I'm sure we don't have a sign for *bog off* :unsure: ........or were you wanting something a little stronger? :rolleyes: ..............I know how to call him a peabrain :P ....................not strong enough, huh?

Pythagorus' wife conTINually accused him of a porn addiction.

<_<

I wonder if he got in trouble in school for continuously drawing va-jay-jays in class..... <_<

Wow, another beautiful day shaping up here, today... :)

A heads-up: I am heading over to the home of one of our Gang of Four this afternoon, the ones with whom I loll about in hot tubs and drink champagne through the lunch hour. Today we're going to be sitting around a gorgeous pool with unbelievably landscaped grounds bursting with flowers, bonsai and vinery. So, who knows what my posts will contain afterward....... <_<:rolleyes:

Gaaaaaahhh.....Something else to niggle at my brain......for, like the words "ravel" and "unravel", I believe "furl" and "unfurl" are in fact synonyms. This happens rarely in our confounding language, an opposing prefix adding nothing to the meaning of its root word, but there you are.......not certain on this one.

Now isn't that just fascinating?? <_<

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm......Furl? :huh::lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Lkg5 · Posted

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      By catnapt · Posted

      my IGG is 815 IGA 203  but tTG-Iga is   <0.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!   oh my god- 13 days of agony and the test is negative?  I don't even know what to do next. There zero doubt in my mind that I have an issue with wheat and probably more so with gluten as symptoms are dramatically worse the more gluten a product has   I am going to write up the history of my issues for the past few years and start a food/symptom diary to bring with me to the GI doctor in March.   I googled like crazy to try to find out what other things might cause these symptoms and the only thing that truly fits besides celiac is NCGS   but I guess there are some other things I maybe should be tested for ...? like SIBO?   I will continue to eliminate any foods that cause me distress (as I have been doing for the past couple of years) and try to keep a record. Can anyone recommend an app or some form or something that would simplify this? I have a very full and busy life and taking the time to write out each symptom name in full would be tedious and time consuming- some sort of page with columns to check off would be ideal. I am not at all tech savvy so that's not something I can make myself ... I'm hoping there's some thing out there that I can just download and print out   do I give up on testing for celiac with such a low number? I am 70 yrs old I have been almost completely off gluten for the most part for about 2 yrs. I had a meal of vital wheat gluten vegan roast,  rolls and stuffing made from home baked bread and an apple pie- and had the worst pain and gas and bloating and odd rumblings in my gut etc - almost went to the ER it was so bad. I was thinking, since I'm spilling a lot of calcium in my urine, that perhaps this was a kidney stone (never had one before but there's always that first time, right?)    Saw my endo on Jan 20th and after hearing the story about the symptoms from eating that holiday meal, she suggested doing a gluten challenge. She said 2 weeks was fine- she said stopping it in the middle if symptoms got bad was fine- In the meantime I'd read that 2 weeks was not enough- called and argued with the nurse about this, but ultimately decided to stop the gluten on the 13th day and get the test done because I was in too much pain and almost suicidal and knew I could not continue.   so.............. that's where I am now I have had no bread since Sunday. I did have some rolled oats today and had some gas and bloating afterwards I did have some wheat germ in a smoothie on Tuesday and had a stomach ache later that night.   but overall I feel so much better! all the joint pain is gone! the nausea is gone. The stomach pain and gas and bloating are going away. Still a bit gassy but no more of that horrible odor. wow, that would clear a room if I was out in public!  I see a GI nurse March 4th  I hope she'll be able to help sort this out! can you think of what my next steps might be?

      Is it gluten?

      nothing has changed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.
