Heck, there's probably now't that man doesn't know about 'mother f****n' boards', carries one in his briefcase I hear ;)

Yes! To be sure, he does.... . . . . .it is referred to by those in his greater circle, as in Jess's lab, as a mother-father board. Political correctness, and all. . ...... .

Well, Barack Obama probably knows everything about brake fluid, and why I'm having trouble with my car.

Think I'll call him. Would you say he's having a break right now from all the international hoopla, speeches and back-patting in London? I want to talk directly with him....no message-leaving.

:lol:

G'day Psillies- Haven't been posting but reading along via Gmail. No psilly (help meeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!), no mojo, no energy. Must find it- I think it went where mismatched socks, wooly mammoths and spare keys go :P

Snow in Seattle? Pieter's day turned nice? It's grey and raw here. Methinks we are going to go straight from winter to psummer as we usually do!

Amanda, how is John?

I did go visit my swans yesterday (the ones I photographed about two weeks ago)- there are 10 of them and I'm betting on babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol: Mygawd, we ALL need to get into some good ol' fashioned Wookie-frisking!! 'Tis SO good for what ails one. . . . . what with my sad funeral, Amanda getting over some heinous thang, Soooozle's job worries, and our exhausting journey with fellow Psilly Leeeesargh.....YES! Gotta frisk That Wookie, peeps!

FryBaby!! Good ta see ya!

This is excellent. Frybaby is the BEST handle evah. Leeeesargh, you are now Frybaby. :lol:

Mygawd......So, the very Catholic, hymn-and prayer-driven funeral was coming to a close.... . . .. the priest had filled the incense thingy, then he lit it and began to swing it around the coffin as they do, quite curiously. Well, quite a lot of smoke came billowing out of the chalice, as I suppose it is supposed to, representing the soul heading to heaven.

It exuded a very strong, thick smell, and by the time the priest got around the coffin twice, he was starting to stagger and smile a little.

Crap, I do believe he was stoned. :huh:

He walked verrrrrrrrrrry strangely to the back of the church, leading the fray, smiling, appearing like he was talking to himself.

It was just what I needed. Peeps, I'm afraid I pulled a Mary-Tyler-Moore-at- Chuckles-The-Clown-Funeral. Began larfing. Kept larfing. :ph34r::ph34r:

Man. Not good.

YES! Everyone will need big orange jugs... . ... and gawd knows, they are very funny. :lol:

Jestgar Rising Star

Yes. Time to start planning my funeral.

Dress Code: Everyone must wear the ugliest bridesmaid's dress they were ever forced to buy. Men may choose Bermuda shorts and a clashing shirt with dress socks and shoes.

Decorations: Orange jugs in lieu of flowers.

Wake food: Anything involving Jell-o and/or Cool Whip.

Ahem. I do think that red wine would also be a requirement. I think I shall insist on Cabernet Sauvignon for mine. ;)

Ah yes. Much of which can be consumed prior to the event, if you so choose (bring an extra orange jug).

Gah! Jess! Can we die together?? This sounds fantastic, and exactly what I would like to plan.....my family would be SO compliant in this -- in fact, I will be saving a lot of my dad's wardrobe for any individuals to wear.

The Orange jugs can HOLD the flowers.

Our bodies can enter the church on Care Bear floats.

During the music, when people stand they must hold a public-restroom hover.

I was looking at that crutch-tip.....do you know, they will make PERFECT candle-holders?

It's official John needs his gall bladder out. So they should be scheduling that anytime now. I do hope quite soon since he is in agony. I am not sure how he gets through an 8-hour day. He barely eats right now. Even things which are not supposed to bother him are.

Its another dreary rainy day here thick fog too. One of those lay in bed all day's. Oh how I wish I was in bed yet.

My feline has started spending the night in bed with us. He seems to perfer my side of the bed-actually he will curl up right on top of my legs/thighs. If I move and get into a new position he follows suit. He is a nice warm body though.

15 days till my new niece arrives! I am excited!!!

At least you know what you are dealing with now - hope he doesn't have to wait to long for surgery! :)

Meanwhile the latest at the G20 summit.....

The "family photo" of the G20 is now being taken again after the Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, missed it. Apparently, he was in the loo and nobody seemed to notice!

I think that is just what the Dr recommends LOL--and maybe Mister T can be his visiting nurse.

I am glad- we worried about cancer due to John's history. So this was a relief.

loving the 'orange jug' references.....even tho the results proved nada.......isn't that the way it always comes out?

Mtndog Collaborator

Amanda- Hope all goes well for John. I must admit, I felt fanf*#kingtastic after mine came out! I woke up from the anesthesia hungry and when the nurse asked me how I felt, I said "Drunk.really drunk!" I think I yelled it actually because everyone cracked up. She asked good or bad drunk and I said "GOOD! really good!!!!!!" :lol: I hope all goes well and that he makes a speedy recovery!

Seriously- funerals (especially Catholic ones) are so darn pserious.

I'll take an Irish wake!

SAM HILL MANHEAD!!!....He must be the central figure, placed on top of my urn.. ....

:huh::lol:

Good news on the gall bladder, methinks, Amanda! But poor John - -all this pain lately......has he been able to work? I cannot begin to imagine how tough that would be......

Dear gawd.......no surprise. Absolutely NO surprise that nobody noticed his absence.

Wow . . . :huh: . . . a couple of slow days . . . I missed two days and I think I only had three pages to read!!! Been MIA . . . we were having problems with our Internet security and until we got it figured out, no online permitted due to that April 1st virus thingy. Twas not our problem but just being safe since it suspiciously happened on the 1st.

Amanda, hope everything goes smoothly for John and he gets that "Good Drunk" feeling.

Spring break starts for the kiddos tomorrow. We are headed to Illinois on Saturdary so I shan't be online for awhile.

I'm diggin' the Frybaby!! That's a keeper.

Well, depending on the circumstances . . . we've had some fun funerals life celebrations on my Mom's side of the family . . . they turned into family reunions and much alcohol was involved (ummmm :unsure: . . . not at the actual funeral . . . but shortly afterwards . . . :lol: )

Good Morning, Quiet psillies!!

Crap....Just TOO quiet around these parts. ....I'm gonna hafta do some major recruiting. I think we should somehow pass a Forum Rule that new members must make an appearance in Psillyville to have their post count activated. The laws of addiction would settle in, and the vortex would begin to claim many new hapless victims.

:lol:

Must get on The Ripper for a new ponderable. . . .......

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      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!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      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   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it. 
    • xxnonamexx
      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
