Great investigative work, Leeesa.. . ....It's beginning to hurt my wee brain. :rolleyes::lol:

Wow! I don't remember ever seeing that on Sesame Street! Probably a wee bit after my time.. . . ... <_<

I was on the edge of my seat, waiting with bated breath to see if that llama was going to have an unexplained fractured back molar. . . . . ....

.....Phunny coincidence. .. ......

What are the odds of being able to combine a llama and a trip to the dentist in one video????? :lol:

I remembered it, and googled it. Was actually quite surprised to find it.

For some reason, I ADORED that clip on SS when I was younger. We used to sing the song all the time. I've always loved llamas (I have no idea why). Just do.

(I swear I am not the llama lady)

OK!!!!!.....................I've done some research.

The first sighting I can find of Llama Lady is during Emily's reign

I thought there was one before June 13, but couldn't find it.

I know LL appeared after I did, which was May 10, I believe.

Here are a couple of posts with vital info.......

Besides this, we know that LL loves Monty Python and Oprah, doesn't own a llama but would like to, and lives in a place in the US that has llamas everywhere......(once commented that he/she lives in Llama Land USA).

I did the grunge work, the rest of you can put the pieces togeher

Edit: Forgot one more thing. During one of LL's absences, he/she had been in New York.

I've got it! Llama Lady is this Australian TV personality named Megan......but I don't know her last name (yet). She has about 300 + videos on youtube under the name jewelchic, and she's a jewelry designer! :wub:

LLAMA LADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <screaming hyperactively and raising hand frantically> I make jewelry also!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: <using semi-precious stones, pearls, and sterling wire and other krap>

will you be my phriend?????????????????????????????? :lol: but wait.....more importantly.......

WILL YOU CLAIM THE PSILLIES AS YOUR FRIENDS????????????????????

<do you think I"m scaring her?> :lol:

☻☻☻☻☻

Now . . . did you happen to remember this?? . . . or were you googling llamas and dentist and this pooped up??

what? you don't do that all the time? :lol:

<how DID she remember that? >

.....Phunny coincidence. .. ......

Gad. . . . . .. ...Am I Llama lady????

:unsure:are you? is EM the most wackl Llama Lady?

and............in the identity theft video, there's Van Gogh's Sunflowers above the fireplace...........is it real? :huh: Does Llama Lady own the original? ☼

maybe she was lying? throwing us off the scent? :lol:

her map DID have "Gnu Mexico" on it.......which was 10 miles away from an island surrounded by water. :blink:

wouldn't Gnu Mexico have the largest concentration of llamas in the US?

would it?

:blink:

I have never really had to think this hard about llamas before.

curlyfries Contributor

Wait a minute.......why can't the Llama Lady be her friend from overseas? Maybe she has finally accepted being celiac......that video was from a year ago.

Maybe Terri Hatcher is the Llama Lady!

NO NO NO . . . I have decided it is NOT Jenny McCarthy but it is in fact, Jim Carrey pretending to BE Jenny McCarthy . . . he was Ace Ventura, Pet Detective, you know. I'm pretty sure that means he likes animals of all sorts (cats and llamas)!! Also, this would mean that he didn't watch any movies wif his husband!! (Once again, I'm ignoring the nonCeliac status and just going wif the gluten-free lifestyle . . . but that's my perogative :lol: )

and Susie . . . yer Aussie lady has been Celiac for 12 years . . . I think it's someone with a relatively new diagnosis.

OK Sillies, get this . . . our family is yet again travelling. Leaving tomorrow and coming back on Saturday. I'm tired of it all!!! Whose ideas was this???!!! . . . Oh yeah . . . mine :ph34r: Seemed like a good idea a couple of months ago.

Gooooood Morning, Llama-watchers!!

.......in the identity theft video, there's Van Gogh's Sunflowers above the fireplace...........is it real? :huh: Does Llama Lady own the original? ☼

No, she does not. . . . but this may be the MOST SIGNIFICANT clue yet - - subtle, but there.. . . . ..Van Gogh's Sunflowers is owned by The Yasuda Fire and Marine Insurance Company Ltd., out of Tokyo.

Llama Lady is David Suzuki.

:lol:

Sounds like you've got it all pretty well figgered out, you late-nighters . .. . . my vote's on the Aussie lady - - think you're bang on, Soooozie.

Mornin' Sillies <shuffling in, rubbing eyes, trying to wake up>

Quite the mystery we have here.....who IS LL???? Would be too cool if she were to be phamous. Could put Sillies on the map! :P

THIS is the llama lady!

During the setup for the piece on Sesame Street they wanted to make sure the little girl and the llama had a good rapport, so for 1 month they lived together, slept together, had breakfast cereal together (which, because of the underlying Celiac led to gastric discomfort which created this whole love/pain association that took years of therapy to get through).

Then, after they'd done the dental piece, *poof* llama gone forever leaving an aching void which she knew could only be filled by another llama. The years of llamalessness have only increased the need for dromedary companionship and so now she needs, not just one llama, but a whole herd to feel whole again.

We have to help her! If she doesn't get llamas soon I'm sure this deep rooted need will progress to alpacas and full grown camels! Where will she ever find an apartment that'll accept camels??

Psillies! Unite and psave this poor psoul!!

DingoGirl Enthusiast

oooooooops - duplicate

Jess, I totally agree with this line of thinking. . . . . that Sesame Street clip is, what, 25 years old? That would but her mid-thirties .. . . .about the age of Megan Aussielady. . .....

Actually, we never heard that young girl talk, nor were we given any real visual evidence as to where this piece of film was made. . . . ...could very well be Australian . . .. ....

A llamalessness :lol: existence. . . . .

      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. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      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.
