Good morning everyone! Here's a cute funny and Bev, you can relate to this one! :P

Teachers are going to love this one!!

At Penn State University, there were four sophomores taking chemistry and all of them had an "A" so far.

These four friends were so confident that, the weekend before finals, they decided to visit some friends and have a big party. They had a great time but, after all the hearty partying; They slept all day Sunday and didn't make it back to Penn State until early Monday morning.

Rather than taking the final then, they decided that after the final, they would explain to their professor why they missed it. They said that they visited friends but on the way back they had a flat tire.

As a result, they missed the final. The professor agreed they could make up the final the next day. The guys were excited and relieved.

They studied that night for the exam.

The next day the professor placed them in separate rooms and gave them a test booklet. They quickly answered the first problem worth 5 points. Cool, they thought! Each one in separate rooms, thinking this was going to be easy. ...

Then they turned the page. On the second page was written....

For 95 points: Which tire

Morning Sillies--tis a late morning this day. We were out until 2 am and then we stayed up a bit. So 11 am was when we got up... :ph34r:

Today is filled of more house stuff and then John has some sort of secret surprise planned...not sure what

We decided against the beach today since yesterday was payday but we need to save for other things. We may go in Sept when the rates go down a bit.

I am thinking of making stuffed shells tonight, I make the most awesome stuffed shells. I gotta hit the grocery store today anyway, we are in need of quite a few things that had to wait until payday. Weggies here I come...ready for the zoo!

I spend like an hour catching up only to find I could have skipped ten pages and just read the "Curly Cwips" and been all caught up :D

Hospitals are not for sick people. The criteria for being allowed to leave include pharting, which I was failing at. I still hadn't "passed" that test by mid morning, so I switched my strategy to walking up and down the halls yelling "BORED!" every time I saw a medical personnel. That worked. I left so fast after they told me I could they actually called me and scolded me for not getting all my discharge info.

I then spent almost three days with my friend who would be an alcoholic if she were impaired by it anymore, so I've had waaay more alcohol than one should be consuming with narcotics.

Got home an hour before my parents arrived on my doorstep. No one could make decisions about where/what to eat so roomie suggested he grill dinner for everyone. I dictated the shopping list, he went to the store, parents went to my bro's house to check into their guest room. I said hi here and then proceeded to plow through the hundred or so new emails in my inbox.

Lefty LOOOOOVES my mom.

Lyle hadn't been seen since a day after I left, so last night he came home and we went to bed. He put his heiny in my armpit, pinioned my arm with his back leg, and positioned his chin at the tips of my fingers so as to allow no reason to not be continuously scratched. He was so happy.

Now, I've spent sufficient time here, that the vicodin is kicking in and I can go bathe.

Sent to me by me mum . . . it's a must try . . .

This is Creepy

Think of a letter between A and W.

Repeat it out loud as you scroll down.

Keep going . . .

Don't stop .. ..

Think of an animal that begins with that letter.

Repeat it out loud as you

SCROLL DOWN

Think of either a

man's/woman's name that begins

with the last letter in the animals name

Almost there........

Now count out

the letters in that name on the fingers of the hand you are not using to scroll down.

Take the hand you counted with and hold it out in front of you at face level

.

Look at your palm very closely and notice the lines in your hand .

Do the lines take the form of the

first letter in the

persons name?!

Of course not......

Now TAKE THAT

HAND AND smack

the she-it out of yourself, get a life, and quit playing stupid games!

Oh no Patti, I hope it wasn't that scrumptious lemon cake with the to die for buttercream frosting. Feel better soon :)

Thanks Julie :) "Luckily", I think it's the ragweed that's starting to come up everywhere around here--Mark's sneezing his head off and I'm the opposite. I used me neti pot this morning and it helped immensly ;)

That cake was really good--phrist time I've tried that brand, and had no problem with it. Now, to get the store to carry more flavors......

So - you have to phart before you can go home? :unsure:

I completely phorgot to tell you guys.....after my endoscopy as I was just waking up, I heard the nurse say to the other nurse--"she passed gas already" :lol::ph34r:B) This seemed to please them :unsure: I was very proud :lol:

Happy Birthday to Janie!!!!!! :D Weezie must smell lucious--love her pic! B)

Oh, gawd....that's right, ragweed season begins about now, doesn't it?........Gus has a HORRID reactive allergy to this heinous crop........sneezing, watering, itchy eyes that he's constantly wiping with his massive paws, and itchy, itchy legs that he bites and scratches. Quite hilarious, actually........ <_<:lol: He goes on a Benedryl every day until mid-October.....

Worse than a kid.......... :rolleyes:

Um... .. . . . ....what's a neti pot? This sounds quite new-age..... . . ..some exotic tool of the drug paraphrenalia type? :lol:

I tend to do this on a regular basis. If I go to sleep early, it's often cuz I don't feel good.

Could you do dat for the entire thread?

Ummmmmm, geeee, wellllllllll.......ARE YOU NUTS!.......I must at least pretend I have a life <_< ..........................besides.........the pay sucks :P

We had an awesome ride.......the weather was great. I video taped parts of it. The interstate was closed. People were standing on overpasses waving. At one they had a big sheet with GOD BLESS YOU written on it hanging over the side. :) They provided breakfat and lunch, but I brought my own. There were door prizes. DD won a $25 mall gift card. They had a really awesome band. Good day all around :D

It kinda looks like a little squat tea pot. I'm not sure what you add to the water, but you tilt your head to the side just right, pour it into your nostril, and it will drain out thru the other nostril. Supposed to really clear it out! ;)

....DEAR GAAAAAWD!!!!!!!!!

Almost lost me phunny @ Gatwick airport... :rolleyes: .....was the LAST thing to come round on the carousel,...wrapped and tagged, ....I was pacing about with a frenzied :wacko: look in my eye....stopping people.....asking them ..''HAVE YOU SEEN ME PSILLY?????!!!!!!!!......I MUST FIND IT!!!!!!!!!''

...and now, ...I must endure temperatues of 64 degrees F ---- AFTER living in temps of 110 degrees F for 2 weeks :blink:

T'is most disagreeable....infact...to keep me body temp up (AND ward off the hypothermia) I have downed 4 glasses of cider :lol:

Soooo,

Firstly, can I say how simply divine it is to be back in a country where you CAN flush the paper down the pan (instead of put it in a bin :unsure: )

Unfortunately me coeliacs got glutened twice in Turkey...dunno how :unsure: ..but it must have been gluten as Tel & Alan both went down @ the same time & both had had exactly the same thing for dinner :(

(their new native American name shall be 'Sh*ts like a fire hydrant)

BUT!!

IMMODIUM is available worldwide :)

ALSO,

The local supermarket had THE MOST extensive range of SCHAR gluten-free goods I have ever seen!!!!! :D .....what a bleedin' COUP ;)

A cross between Snort AND Chuckle .............most excellent!!!!...this pleases Nick-er-ler!! :lol: )

Now, what else.......JULES!!!! ..I MUST tell you that ALL the hairy men are in fact living in Turkey (including chest, back, and shoulders :greenguy: :blink: )

BTW, the goat was most helpful in my foray into the last 2 weeks :)

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac.

Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
