I agree wif you GJiannet!! We use maffs all of the time :o

I think what made the lightbulbs go on for me with Algebra was realizing that the NAME is just a SYMBOL. If we have some sticks....(geez, I use these a lot, too, don't I?)...llll....It does not matter if we call them four, or X or monkey poop....the quantity is still the same.

Probably having worked for a decade or more before I went to college helped too. Used LOTS of maffs!

Zello! Nice to meets you! Spelling and sense are optional, as you've been told, and I'm sure can see for yersllph! Hop on in! The Ho'tub is phine, and I'm sure sumbuddy can phind you a crutchtip! ;):lol:

Here . . . I'll put it into terms that you can relate to:

Say you desire a $6000 breast augmentation procedure. You can put away $25/month towards the procedure. How many months until you can't get yerselph some new boobs???

How bout this one for ya, Jess?

There are 50.7 ounces (1.5L) in a bottle of red wine (cause I know you buy the big bottles). You need 16 ounces of wine to make your famous tapioca/red wine pudding. How many batches of tapioca red wine pudding can you make before you need to go back to the liquor store?

See . . . you guys use it every day and just don't realize it.

Actually far more complex for me. Need to factor in number of glasses consumed in order to think tapioca red wine pudding is a good thing. This, I think, will vary, depending on level of sugar craving, and amount of chocolate available.

Good morning! Just made it in time to be able to say that.

Sunny and cold here in Toronto today.

Now this your Oracle wants to know:

Why does plow not rhyme with snow?

Yep, I was gonna say exactly this. . . . ....it is NEVAH that simple.. ..there are always variables. I always seem to need a helluva lot more wine on hand than is called for in a recipe.....curious. :rolleyes:

Now this your Oracle wants to know:

Why does plow not rhyme with snow?

:lol: Gah, these crazy little idiosyncracies of English pronunciation drive me insane.

I get SO tired of apologizing to students for the English language. . . ..

A little late w/ this but, with apologies to anyone packing a compass needle, I'm compelled to try to straighten this out. Can't have me sillies going through the rest of their silly lives w/ such a misconception.

Now, I may need some clarification and/or education on this, but when caught up in a pair of pants/shorts, isn't penile configuration/delineation always north? NW or NE, or perhaps Due North, but always northerly?

. .. . .. <_< no

Yep.......my DH is a runner, as well, and he has told me (when I called him at work this aft with my query) that it is ALWAYS northerly, whether wearing spandex, flannel dress pants or Levi's... . .....

. . ...

So, I appear to have me answer.

But is it unanimous?

Omg NO

Maybe a higher % when in spa. . .. spa ... (I think we prefer the term "compression shorts" to spandex) sport/compression shorts, & bike racing may be a special case where a sling provides competitive advantage . .. ..but, in general, .. .omg NO!

Apparently, boxers are 'south' (duh) and anything that 'gathers and binds' winds up 'north'. Makes sense......

:huh: .. . .maybe appears to make sense .. .. .which way are those sculptured pouches P

We've been waiting fer your weigh-in on this, Ptaoughmghmnus! (hope you are feeling okay).......

Those of us without the device can only construct scenarios based on assumption, and how they normally look when we see them :ph34r::ph34r:

Yep, 'tis true.. . :lol: . ..But I remain bumfoozled by what DH has ascertained regarding this entire North-South discussion, as it seems to contradict what Ptaoughmn is "OMG - - NO!-ing". . . ..DH claims that when positioned in anything fitted, ie., pants, jeans, shorts, etc., things remain northerly, always. In fact, the mere suggestion of it ever being due south in a pair of Levi's just made him stop and stare at me. "No way. Doesn't happen". . . ...

:rolleyes::lol:

I can see I'll have to bring this up with him again. . ...more head-shaking silence, and a quick moving away, mefinks. . . . ....

I could ask the male diplomats that I teach tomorrow.....a kind of impromptu poll, so to speak, making sure to organize it as a justified vocabulary exercise. .. . ...

This is my bad habit . . . <---my little set of three periods . . . I use to "pause" and then continue . . . :lol:

By the way Zella, you tell everyone in your sig that you have a warning?? . . . Nobody can see that you have a warning except for you and the moderators so no need to apologiz in yer sig. Howeveh, if you're proud of yer warning that's a different story. You should announce it and then add something like (with attitude) . . . "Yeah, I'm bad. So What!!! <then this next part wif a Dirty Harry accent> Go Ahead, Make My Day!!"

Oooooops . . . and forgot to say . . . Welcome to Sillville, where spelling is opshunal.

LOL!!!! I swear!! Don't I just keep digging myself in quite the spacious and roomy hole ;) I did receive a message from one of the mods about my Oops moment.. all I have to say is, by now I should know PM means I did something wrong - again.. I feel like I should wear a leather jacket, slap on some black leggings and call myself a Pink Lady.

I think the three dots rock! < --- I almost typed pink dots.. those rock too, but not what I meant to type.. or say... yesh, I just woke up.

I'm gonna go back in my corner now, wear my dunce cap and reflect my actions :P

Let's assign variables, shall we . . .

X = the current amount of pressure in PatTee's 'ead

Y = the pressure at which PatTee's 'ead explodes

Z = the rate at which pressure increases when mathS is discussed

How long till PatTee loses her 'head?

See . . . algebra is used EVERYWHERE!!!

Welll..... I know when I started it was about 2 AM... when I realized there was a double arrow to move me along.. it was 3 AM... after I read a few pages of the "new" stuff and finally responded, it was 5 AM :D

Yesh, I am that strange!

Oooo-weeee, looks like I need to scrounge me up a pink lady outfit :) I used to have one... when I was 5... wonder if that still fits??? ;)

You sillies are so fabulous.. or shall I say psillies.. Is a psillie from Philly, or did they just drink too much of the happy juice? By the by, happy juice can consist of anything that makes a person happy! Or sillie/psillie.. shillie..

Did someone say breast augmentation? My cousin had one of them.. About two years later she was diagnosed with Familial Polyposis and lost a bunch of weight.. Wellllll, my Mom, the tactful bird that she is, asked my cousin: "So, did your boobies lose weight too? Or are they still up and doing their thing??" After all the laughter and cantaloupe jokes subsided, we did find out that they fared very well and hadn't lost a pound. Moral of the story - there isn't one. Just that if your weight fluctuates, your tiggo-bities should stay the same size post augmentation. <-- Uh oh, I hope that wasn't too crude of a story... I'll be waiting in my inbox for a PM.. :P

Nice meetin' ya'll.. I wonder why I have a Southern drawl, when I was born in California? Hmmm...

The gravitational reference makes me wonder just how snug y'all think non-boxers ARE!??

.. . as it seems to contradict what Ptaoughmn is "OMG - - NO!-ing". . . ..

The bolded NO was in response to the purported unanimity of the North Pole, Mrs. Claus. :lol: (Maybe Em has the gall to Gallup to the mall for a North Poll?) :wacko:

It's possible I'm mistaken, but I believe a high majority can provide a literal answer to the query "how's it hangin' d00d?"

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
