A Stinky Story (actually pretty gross)

DO YOU PASS GAS IN BED?

THIS IS A STORY ABOUT A COUPLE WHO HAD BEEN HAPPILY MARRIED FOR YEARS..

THE ONLY FRICTION IN THEIR MARRIAGE WAS THE HUSBAND'S HABIT OF phARTING LOUDLY EVERY MORNING WHEN HE AWOKE. THE NOISE WOULD WAKE HIS WIFE AND THE SMELL WOULD MAKE HER EYES WATER AND MAKE HER GASP FOR AIR.

EVERY MORNING SHE WOULD PLEAD WITH HIM TO STOP RIPPING THEM OFF BECAUSE IT WAS MAKING HER SICK. HE TOLD HER HE COULDN'T STOP IT AND THAT IT WAS PERFECTLY NATURAL. SHE TOLD HIM TO SEE A DOCTOR. SHE WAS CONCERNED THAT ONE DAY HE WOULD BLOW HIS GUTS OUT.

THE YEARS WENT BY AND HE CONTINUED TO RIP THEM OUT. THEN ONE THANKSGIVING MORNING AS SHE WAS PREPARING THE TURKEY FOR DINNER AND HE WAS UPSTAIRS SOUND ASLEEP, SHE LOOKED AT THE INNARDS OF THE TURKEY - GIZZARD AND LIVER. A MALICIOUS THOUGHT CAME TO HER.

SHE TOOK THE GIZZARD AND LIVER UPSTAIRS WHERE HER HUSBAND WAS SOUND ASLEEP, AND GENTLY PULLING THE BED COVERS BACK, SHE PULLED BACK THE ELASTIC WAISTBAND OF HIS UNDERPANTS AND PUT THEM INTO HIS SHORTS.

SOME TIME LATER SHE HEARD HER HUSBAND WAKEN WITH HIS USUAL TRUMPETING WHICH WAS FOLLOWED BY A BLOOD CURDLING SCREAM AND THE SOUND OF FRANTIC FOOT STEPS AS HE RAN INTO THE BATH ROOM. THE WIFE COULD HARDLY CONTROL HERSELF AS SHE ROLLED ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING, TEARS IN HER EYES! AFTER YEARS OF TORTURE SHE RECKONED SHE HAD GOT HIM BACK PRETTY GOOD.

ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES LATER, HER HUSBAND CAME DOWNSTAIRS IN HIS BLOODSTAINED UNDERPANTS WITH A LOOK OF HORROR ON HIS FACE. SHE BIT HER LIP AS SHE ASKED HIM WHAT WAS THE MATTER.

HE SAID, 'HONEY YOU WERE RIGHT. ALL THESE YEARS YOU HAVE WARNED ME AND I DIDN'T LISTEN TO YOU'.

'WHAT DO YOU MEAN?' ASKED HIS WIFE.

'WELL, YOU ALWAYS TOLD ME THAT ONE DAY I WOULD END UP phARTING MY GUTS OUT, AND TODAY IT FINALLY HAPPENED.'

'BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD, SOME VASELINE AND TWO FINGERS. I THINK I GOT MOST OF IT BACK IN.'

Um....yes :huh:

Be veerrry careful with hypnosis.....there may very well be subliminal messages after all! Yeah, I understand Rippelers fascination with hypnosis! I took a bunch of psychology courses in college. I loved them all and was quite obsessed with finding out what makes people tick....including myself. I played around with self-hypnosis :o and would NeVeR recommend that anyone do that. Could be quite dangerous.....hmmmm...maybe that's what happened.

Well, how fascinating!!...(I am also very interested in psychology)

Here's a funny.

An Englishman, Irishman, and a Scotsman walk into a bar and each order a pint of Guinness. By some chance, a little fly lands in each of their drinks. So the Englishman pushes his beer away in disgust and asks for another. The Scotsman simply flicks the fly away and gives the Englishman a look.

The Irishman picks up the fly, holds it over the glass, and yells "Spit it out, you bastard!!!"

Hee!... to be sure!

GADS!!!!!!!!!!! <slightly serious moment>

I dunno WHAT is going on wiv Tel but he is COVERED in hives on his back and torso :unsure: , loads of swelling too, he's in quite a bit of pain :( (was awake most of the night )

Quite alarming as he never had owt like this before :blink:

...might browse Ebay....see if I can pick him up a new immune system (ERROR on his existing!!! :rolleyes:)

Nikerler! Paul McKenna is quite well-known 'round this house.....Jack and I sat through two of his specials that were on TV a few months ago.

For whatever the reason, The Ripper was immediately fascinated by everything this bloke was saying and doing (and needs to lose NO weight - - being a growing kid, he needs to gain). He was captivated by McKenna's self-hypnosic approaches (picturing worms in the peanut butter), and insisted one night that we all keep our eyes closed throughout our entire dinner. Sure enough, I only ate two-thirds of me plate (likely because I couldn't find half of the food)..... . .. :lol:

Hmmmmm . . . How can you eat 2/3 if you only found 1/2? . . . please don't help Sophie wif her MathS anymore, I'm askeerd she won't pass.

Nik! This sounds worrying about Tel. . . . .. :unsure: Should he perhaps have it looked at?

St. David's Day! For whatever the reason, My dad seems to know a fair amount about this curious holiday.....during my visit to the hospital this aft he was telling me that on this day, Welshmen traditionally wear either a daffodil or a leek in their breast pockets. :huh:

Gah. :rolleyes: Hmmmm.. ..... . Let's see... . . . ....it looked like there was 1/2 left on me plate (such a surprise, and all), but there was really only 1/3.. . .?

:lol:

Sophie got 82% on her math test last week... :)

I helped her very little, as one may guess. . ..

Jeesh! Where IS me brain :huh: I meant to comment on Tel's situation. Nik--could it be allergic? Has he used/eaten/been around anything different? Is it itchy or just painful? Shingles can cause those sorts of symptoms--me dad had an outbreak last year and it wasn't confined to just his waist area.

Let us know :)

Did you attack him during a hypnotic trance?

Patti, honey, you are so far from ninny that it's hardly worth mentioning. Huge changes going on in your life. Child will be expected to act like an adult at all times. Selling a house. Expected to live among Texans. Be strong, woman. And bring an armadillo to get a head start on your garden.

A little Jack-worthy info (from Wiki):

In the United States, the sole resident armadillo is the Nine-banded Armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus), which is most common in the central southernmost states, particularly Texas.

Most members of the genus Dasypus give birth to four homozygous young (that is, identical quadruplets).

So here's an interesting thing that has been going on over the last week or so at the store. We are just off Toronto's main street, facing North. There is another building behind us, and there is about a foot of space between the two structures. There is a small washroom in the SE corner, with a window. Since the view is of a cinder-block wall a foot away, the glass in the window is ordinary glass so you can enjoy the spectacular view. ;)

Nobody can see in, right? Click here to see the audience yesterday! :o

On some occasions there have been two, but yesterday just the one. First time we've been able to catch it in a photo.

This is the big mural I've just finished for DD's room.....she's got a thang fer zebras, so I told her there's no way in hell we're gonna get up close to one on a Kenyan safari - - this had to suffice..... . .

I have a thing for very tight, hyper-close-up compositions. I've drawn several portraits of old, haggard men's and women's faces, many of which are just an eye and part of a nose. DD finds some of these scary, and was worried that a huge close-up of a zebra head would freak her out when she's trying to get to sleep. We'll see. . . . . ...... :lol:

Hi, I've been silently popping in from time to time, but I just had to comment on this one. Try working in a middle school. The eigth-graders recently got done studying the solar system. You're right...and just SAYING Uranus never gets old to them :lol: But it's even worse now. They are studying genetics. With every new chapter, they always have vocabulary words to define and draw. The teacher had to make an exception for sexual and asexual reproduction :ph34r: Now the big HAHA in class is Homozygous :lol:

Lots happening around here. DD and her boyfriend, David have an apartment together. David has been working as a substitute teacher. He obviously won't be able to work over the summer, and the economy the way it is.......it'll be hard for him to find something. David is like family, and in hard times......you take care of your own. So hubby offered to let them live with us to save money. With snow days and holidays, it's been tough going for them, too....so they're going to move in next month.

      Neither of them were anemic 6 months after the Celiac diagnosis. His other vitamin levels (d, B12) were never low. My daughters levels were normal after the first 6 months. Is the thiamine test just called thiamine? 
    • knitty kitty
      Yes, I do think they need a Thiamine supplement at least. Especially since they eat red meat only occasionally. Most fruits and vegetables are not good sources of Thiamine.  Legumes (beans) do contain thiamine.  Fruits and veggies do have some of the other B vitamins, but thiamine B 1 and  Cobalamine B12 are mostly found in meats.  Meat, especially organ meats like liver, are the best sources of Thiamine, B12, and the six other B vitamins and important minerals like iron.   Thiamine has antibacterial and antiviral properties.  Thiamine is important to our immune systems.  We need more thiamine when we're physically ill or injured, when we're under stress emotionally, and when we exercise, especially outside in hot weather.  We need thiamine and other B vitamins like Niacin B 3 to keep our gastrointestinal tract healthy.  We can't store thiamine for very long.  We can get low in thiamine within three days.  Symptoms can appear suddenly when a high carbohydrate diet is consumed.  (Rice and beans are high in carbohydrates.)  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so symptoms can wax and wane depending on what one eats.  The earliest symptoms like fatigue and anxiety are easily contributed to other things or life events and dismissed.   Correcting nutritional deficiencies needs to be done quickly, especially in children, so their growth isn't stunted.  Nutritional deficiencies can affect intelligence.  Vitamin D deficiency can cause short stature and poor bone formation.   Is your son taking anything for the anemia?  Is the anemia caused by B12 or iron deficiency?  
    • lizzie42
      Thank you! That's helpful. My kids eat very little processed food. Tons of fruit, vegetables, cheese, eggs and occasional red meat. We do a lot of rice and bean bowls, stir fry, etc.  Do you think with all the fruits and vegetables they need a vitamin supplement? I feel like their diet is pretty healthy and balanced with very limited processed food. The only processed food they eat regularly is a bowl of Cheerios here and there.  Could shaking legs be a symptom of just a one-time gluten exposure? I guess there's no way to know for sure if they're getting absolutely zero exposure because they do go to school a couple times a week. We do homeschool but my son does a shared school 2x a week and my daughter does a morning Pre-K 3 x a week.  At home our entire house is strictly gluten free and it is extremely rare for us to eat out. If we eat at someone else's house I usually just bring their food. When we have play dates we bring all the snacks, etc. I try to be really careful since they're still growing. They also, of course, catch kids viruses all the time so I  want to make sure I know whether they're just sick or they've had gluten. It can be pretty confusing when they're pretty young to even be explaining their symptoms!

      That is interesting, and it's the first time I heard about the umbilical cord beings used for that test. Thanks for sharing!

      @lizzie42, You're being a good mom, seeking answers for your son.  Cheers! Subclinical thiamine deficiency commonly occurs with anemia.  An outright Thiamine deficiency can be precipitated by the consumption of a high carbohydrate meal.   Symptoms of Thiamine deficiency include feeling shakey or wobbly in the legs, muscle weakness or cramps, as well as aggression and irritability, confusion, mood swings and behavior changes.  Thiamine is essential to the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine which keep us calm and rational.   @Jsingh, histamine intolerance is also a symptom of Thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine is needed to prevent mast cells from releasing histamine at the slightest provocation as is seen in histamine intolerance.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine from the body.  Without sufficient thiamine and other B vitamins to clear it, the histamine builds up.  High histamine levels can change behavior, too.  High histamine levels are found in the brains of patients with schizophrenia.  Thiamine deficiency can also cause extreme hunger or conversely anorexia.   High carbohydrate meals can precipitate thiamine deficiency because additional thiamine is required to process carbohydrates for the body to use as fuel.  The more carbohydrates one eats daily, the more one needs additional thiamine above the RDA.  Thiamine is water soluble, safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Keep in mind that gluten-free processed foods like cookies and such are not required to be fortified and enriched with vitamins and minerals like their gluten containing counterparts are.  Limit processed gluten-free foods.  They are often full of empty calories and unhealthy saturated fats and additives, and are high in histamine or histamine release triggers.  It's time you bought your own vitamins to supplement what is not being absorbed due to malabsorption of Celiac disease.  Benfotiamine is a form of Thiamine that has been shown to improve intestinal health as well as brain function. Do talk to your doctors and dieticians about supplementing with the essential vitamins and minerals while your children are growing up gluten free.  Serve nutritionally dense foods.  Meats and liver are great sources of B vitamins and minerals. Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your progress!
