The Ripper's teef are okay now......but the first couple of days were brutal. I think the braces make him look older, which pleases him. He wishes that they could make him taller. I said that he would need braces around his neck fer that, stretching it bit by bit each week... . . . . :lol:

So glad he's feeling better! :D Gosh, The Ripper looks so much older than when we met him--very mature B) The height will come--probably all at once, if I remember correctly. Both my sons sprouted up a lot when they were well into their teens.

I am so not afraid of testoterone. I, myself, keep a bottle of it next to my bottle of wodka, and have been known to take a nip of it from time to time. All right. All the time.

Okay, now it really is time fer you to put up a pic of yerself, Sewzhinn. Are you that great, huge, bald-headed monster that I see at the gym all the time, the leviathan who cannot put his hands at his sides for the expanse of muscle?

Methinks this may be you:

Em-

Does the Rippers braces come in colors. That always seemed fun but I was an adult and choose the clear option but I used to use colors on my bottom teeth. Had to make some fun out of those few years!

Where are all the other sillies?? Looks like we are holding down the fort on our own!

Let's see....how does this go......

You will continue getting tall during your teens until your second growth spurt, after which you stop growing. Men end up taller than women because they hit the growth spurt later. This suggests that the longer Jack goes without hitting the growth spurt, the taller he'll be in the end.

I'll see if I can find a ref for this.

I just emailed this link to Jack....he will find it very interesting. Knowing him, he probably has already researched all this. In fact, I should check the author's name on that article....could be one o' his. :rolleyes:

And his feet are getting HUGE! Like a St. Bernard pup. . . . .......

It's the funniest thing. There's this guy on the island that puts up all these tacky looking protest signs that are so cryptic that you can't tell what he's protesting. Well some time over the night somebody went around and put signs up next to his that say things like TAX stupid signs and STOP stupid signs. Ya just never know about these small island people.

OMG :lol: :lol: this is so totally BRILLIANT - can ya post some photos on the book?

Okay, if Sleezin is a Ranger, I is a Forester, although over here I must be an angel with this darned halo round my head all the time on account of what I is driving. Perhaps Sleezin and I can go play in de woods together but then if I were going to do dat I would have to polish me halo and put it back in its Toyota box :o

About the only brace I would contemplate anymore is a back brace since I phinally have me teef to an immovable status--no, me real ones, psillies, not the ones you put in a glass beside your bed every night <_< Gahhh! and have to stick in with that pink goo!!! :lol: Thanks be for the small mercies in life :P

Luuved the supplemental signs on de island {snicker} He probly is too stoopid to even 'get' it. Not vandalism; just supplementation. Only time I ever did vandalism was when they was saving electricity and turned off all the street lights at midnight! Who knows wot pholks will get up to den? Was sharing a house wif some other crazy loons, and we went out "floristry shopping" at 1:00 a.m. Took big baskets and snippers and ended up with a whole pharkin' house full of beeyutiphul phlowers for our weekend party :P Sure hope dey weren't prize blooms planned for some competition or somefink.

Been quite the weekend so far.....long holiday weekend + phull moon = lots of craziness!

The days suddenly seem waaaaayyyyy too short. Dark when I get up, Dark early in the evening. The mornings smell definitely Septemberish. Makes me wonder why I didn't strive to enjoy the summer more. Too late now. But Autumn is pretty decent, too. Unfortunate that we have to wear so many more clothes to be comfy.

Hey Sillies

Well the evening was going well.....until!

We went to go see fireworks. On the way there we hit a filing cabinet on the interstate, it was dark out and the cabinet was brown....by the time John saw it and swerved to miss it but he clipped it and damaged my bumper and gashed up the tire. Brand new tires on my car. Now I need another new one.

Fireworks were nice, they were over the river and all but still.

Sorry that an accident put a dent (pun intended) in your lovely evening, Mand-o-lin. Best thing is...it's damage that can be fixed and that no one was hurt. One would think that whoever lost it might have realized it was missing and gone to look for it. "Geez Edna! The Filing Cabinet has taken off with the socks again! How many times have I told you to keep the office door shut to keep it in?"

Hope yer all having a grand day today. It's not a day-off hollerday for everyone. So......while I'm working I'll imagine y'all having pik a niks, swilling phun drinks (like stormy hurricanes, and strawberry doctarries, whatever) watching phireworks, suntanning or otherwise floating your boats! Will make me smile....it will.

G'Morning, Psills!

Happy Labour Day. Anyone still sit and watch Jerry Lewis? I have vivid memories of tuning in to the telethon as a kid, my stomach all in knots over school starting the next day, and seeing Gerry's face and thinking, "gawd......he's not helping, much"... .. ..

:rolleyes:

Mandolin! :o Wow, taking on a filing cabinet on the highway.. . ...... ...thank gawd John reacted quickly enough and you just clipped it! Could have been so much worse...... :unsure:

Four new tires, but you guys are okay!

A FILING CABINET????

How do you NOT notice that's missing?

Did you guys get out and load it up? Did it survive unscathed?

ranger Enthusiast

I'm feeling very Syrian today, almost glum. I never thaught I'd say this to anyone, but, here goes. " I hope the Ripper's mouth is better".

And youv'e got to watch for those phlying philing cabints. Glad no one was hurt.

You guys have cracked me up with your Dr. Soos stuf. Makes me want to learn to reed.

OK, I'm computer illigitimate. How do you pick out quotes and use the smiley faces?

Yesterday, watched a PBS program on the history of the chicken. I think a story about a live, headless chicken is intrinsically phunny. They took him touring all over the U.S., and even England. They had to stuff phood directly into his esophigus,condrointly water with an eye-dropper. On occasion, he would start "gurgling", and then they would have to remove phlegm with the same said eye-dropper. High maintenance chicken! One night, after a hyly lucrative side show in Sascckicun, the chicken started gurgling. They could't find the afore-mentioned eye-dropper, and the poor damn live headless chicken died from drowning in it's own phlegm.

Phlegm spelled correctly is an intrinsically phuuni word.

I will return after mourning the dead live headless chicken. Maybe I'll get my femur back.

You're phlegmee fiend,

ps- that was not me in the gym. I look like that, but would not go near a gym. Am allergic to Sven.

I know right! no we didnt stop it was dark out and it was in the left lane of a 3-lane highway on the bridge where there is no room for stopping safely. We hurried up and called 911 so that Penndot can come and get it. If not there was going to be an accident.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
