I find that dumping a potted plant over near anything that needs to be cleaned works really well. When whoever shows up you greet them with exasperation saying "I just finish cleaning and the cat goes and does this. Do you mind if we just hang out in the other room?"

I have a lot of plants :ph34r: :ph34r:

Great idea! Now all I need are some potted plants and a cat. I took 5 min. to vacuum area around "his" chair. Thats all it took! You gotta love a man who's clueless.

Ok sillies--I keep having this dream where I'm walking down a street in the downtown area of my hometown. All is well until I enter a store--then no matter which door I try to exit I don't recognize the area. Suddenly, it's a desolate, industrial kind of place. No one around. :unsure:

Whoooooaaaaaa.. . .. ..... . .Pahteigh, this is eerie and much unsettling.......like somethin' outta Dickens. Tthings are suddenly not too phunnee. . .. . ... :unsure:

Yes, being naked in such landscapes has happened to me in the odd dream. I'm trying to hide behind my hands, the side of a building, a large camel that suddenly lumbers in front of me. . . .... :huh: . . .... . ... . .. :lol:

Perfect for a deppresso. In this dream, do you know what kind of store this is? Do you feel that your future looks flat ( in real life). Are you in any kind of rut? Do you still have things to look forward to? Do you feel at all kind of locked into your currant situatio, even if thats a good place? I dunno.

Have you got yer clothes on? If you have the dream tonight, try to arrange it so you are naked. I'm curious to see if your nakedness brings about anything interesting, because mine never does. I just stand there, trying to cover up. Nothing changes, moves....no one looks. Gah. <_<

:rolleyes:

hmmm.....a humourless ranger and we are already dangling yeti ballcocks. Things get scary quick around here.

Gawd.....did our yeti have a ballcock? How soon we forget......just trying to picture........ :lol:

. . . also, there's a money back guarantee. If you find that you are not enjoying yourself, just return your unused portion of the thread and someone . . . not me . . . will refund your purchase price (less delivery fees, of course).

There is a new promotion happening as we speak - - you can get a trade-in on a new thread, but only if you act within 24 hours of your first post here and you will not get an extended warranty. If the new thread gets yanked due to profanity or trolling, you're outta luck. So Sooooozan, you have a day to think it over. . . ..

:lol:

Ballcock, ballcock. Yes, I'm beginning to like that word. Gotta run. I've got to quick do something obvious in the house so DH thinks I did something today! Later.

Wow. This is sounding good.. . . ....think Susan is a keeper. . . . ..

A Morrocan walks into a bar and the bartender asks " Why the long fez Abduhl?" I think I've got to do more than duck on that one.

I'm off to fix dinner (something I really do). Thanks for the laughs. By the way, even though I read serious books, the dumber the comedy, the more I like it. Airplane still cracks me up, even though I've seen it many times. Later.

SAM HILL MANHEAD!! Oh, I miss him.......the way he used to sit on my dining room table, staring off, his silver/pewter face strong and impassive...... . . . :lol:

He sits in my buddy's front window, warding off bad men of ill intent. Truly, it's very funny -- he has not been moved from this location since I gave him to her last year.

Gad....how do we explain all of this to our Newbie? . . . . ...Well, Susan, y'see, my husband was in his work parking garage one morning last fall, and he spotted something kind of shiny over in the garbage collection area, and... ....well, .. . ......

Okay, Soooozun and Shroomie! Head back to page 1512 - - mid-November 2008 - - the sudden introduction of Sam Hill Manhead into our lives. . . .......

:lol:

Reading it again, I remain fascinated in where he came from..... . . ....why he was there, right when DH was unlocking his car.... . . . ....what does it meeeeeeean?

I think I need to generate an RCMP inquiry ........ ..

ranger Enthusiast

OK. It's Sat morn and I'm not awake yet. The only glasses I can find slide off my face when I look down. I am computer (almost) illiterate. And you want me to go to page 1512. How do you do that? One page at a time? Does this silver man have anything to do with a garage in Washington left perhaps by a man in a trenchcoat who refers to himself lovingly as Deep Throat? If not, Please instruct. I had a grin on my face yesterday - could that be the beginning of an attack of funny?

jerseyangel Proficient

Good Saturday mornin' sillies B)

I can see Bevvie dancing in a phloaty skirt, barephoot. :rolleyes: A beautiphul, phree spirit :D

Good "going back", Em!! Our sillie newbies can now read the saga of Sam Hill Manhead in it's entirety--surely required reading for all sills. :P

What else.....Nik--send DC wif tea toot-sweet!!! A proper English tea sounds so much nicer than me (hole-y) tea bags :lol:

Last night just as I was going to sleep, I turned and saw the biggest black bug on the wall, up near the ceiling :o I woke up Mark :P who tried to swat it with a rolled up newspaper, but only succeeded in knocking it to the floor--where it ran under the bed. Then it just disappeared :huh:

I, of course, over-reacted and could not possibly sleep with this thing at large in the room :lol: , so we moved the bedside tables and the bed away from the wall and still could not find it. I had the vacuum cleaner on, wand attachment in hand ready to suck it up and get rid of the bag--but got naught :angry:

Mark, of course, fell back to sleep immediately <_< --I, however kept the TV on and watched for a return of the thing for half the night......

      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
    • Scott Adams
      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.
