OMG. . . . this reminds me of a rumoured account of Anne Boleyn's eyes and mouth contorting a fair amount after her head had been lopped off her body, for a long enough time that many in the throng noticed and dutifully vomited and/or passed out. This would make sense, I suppose - - muscles contracting or releasing . . .. . but perhaps she was trying to say something in those fateful eight seconds of waning consciousness. .. . ... .

. . . What would she have had to say?. . . . .

"I'll be back. . . ....Watch for me. . . wandering the tower halls .. . . . .wi' me 'ead tooked underneath me arm . . . ".....

I never pulled tricks on Halloween, I was too busy trying to get candy.

Last year, however, someone did toilet paper the trees out front of our house. I was coming home and noticed it, and thought to myself, "Is that Charmin? Charmin Ultra Strong? Ooooo boy, if I was your momma you'd be DEAD, BOY!!!!!"

Or girl....

Is it sad that I recognized the brand?....... And type?........

:(

Quite the entertaining sillie, no less. That was freakin funny. I wanna know how many heads they had to chop off before they came up with that number. How do you get people to sign up for a test like that?

"Hey, uh, we know we're supposed to do the needle thing, but we're goin old school and we're just gonna chop your head off and see how long it takes for you to die!"

Did they have electrodes hooked up or something?

I've come to realize there may be a snag in counting sans lungs.

Perhaps they just took an average, over the span of a couple of centuries, of the amount of time the eyes and mouths twitched and grimaced after separation from the host body, and it ended up being eight seconds.

Yeah, that sounds good.

Revolting, and deeply disturbing, but good. . . . . . . :lol:

Hey!!!

I'm watching Larry King...he's got Michael Moore on, and is taking call-in questions. A woman just called with a very sexy voice, from CLOVIS, California, and asked a brilliant question about Obama's campaign.

Sooooozie!!! Was that you?????

I was just thinking about posting that very same question.

Good to see Tom with his sillie on...........must be where mine went.

Don't know what I've done to myself, but my face is breaking out and a feeling of gloom and total irritability has overcome me.

Hmmmmmm.....just realized I've been out of vitamins for about a week. Can that possibly be it?

I think gloom, irritability & a general unease (and hmmm . .. .others not coming to me) are what I used/monitored to discover which vitamins, for the most part, were worth taking.

So that's where she is! I have to check in over there, I always forget :lol:

Hmmmmmmmmm :mellow:

I might have to try them myface places someday . . :huh:

Until then, consider it safe to assume I've been sending drinks to all throughout the day .. . .EVERY day! :wacko:

What else gets sent? Pokes? Slaps? 3 stooges-style eye pokes and pliered noses??

P.S. My phirst post phrom werk!!!!! :o

      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.
