Morning Sillies

Tis 9:21 am and I am already sick of stupid people....and the countdown till 4:30 begins.

You all look like you had a phun philled wkend. I didnt have must time to jump on and post. Rained so much Thurs-Sat I was thinking it was time to start construction on me ark. Now it seems like we are getting summer like weather again.

I am so glad I got headphones too at my desk- they are coming in handy today- seems like everyone is surfing the crimson wave.... :ph34r:

so I am sitting hear rocking out to Power Ballads on winamp and eating Glutino Pretzels and Peanut Butter...and just ignoring the chaos surrounding me!

I hope yer run goes well, Em :)

Amanda--it's been raining here for several days, too. We need it, but enough is enough. Hope your day picks up ;)

On Saturday we received in the mail a plaster heart wif Allo's wee paw print and handwritten at the top of the heart was his name and 1991-2009. His vet had this done. We had no idea about it, it came as a complete surprise.

Bah--can't get the pic to upload.

Wow...that is SOooOo nice, Patteigh. :) Allo was eighteen?? Amazing....just shows you how a much-loved, so well-cared for animal can thrive and live a very long time.

Forgot to talk to Soooozle about standard poodles from yesterday! I am in agreement wif ya, Sooooze, certainly to an extent. I have found that the bigger the poodle, however, the more endearing, the more fun, the more like DOGS they are. I have always picked my pups carefully, from people who breed them big and as wide as they'll get.

Gus is a big boy - - over eighty pounds, and he's got a great, wide chest. His face is wide, too - -he looks very like the retriever that these dogs really are.

Elsie was a rescue, so I couldn't pick and choose. But she is also big.....lucky us!

Hmmm....I pick my dogs this way.. . ....just trying to think if I always picked my men using such a protocol. Always tall guys.... ...I dated a couple of blokes with wide faces........don't think it made them more like retrievers, though, and they certainly did NOT retrieve things for me, like my purse when dropped, or a bouquet of flowers when the situation screamed for one... . ..... <_<:rolleyes:

Omgawd.you guys are outta control :lol: :lol: Everytime I come on I pheel like I have to learn a new language :lol: OK- before I catch up I just have to say "Hold me, I'm scared" because I am taking a break from WORK to catch up- work? What is this? I am so confuzzled. I have 20 papers to grade and I haven't even met these people yet! Help me! :lol: Why do you have to do so much homework when you is da teacher!!!!!!!!!!!

Paddeigh- Your pheet are not just hot- they are SMOKIN- between the feets, the polish (British Red Coat by OPI is my best guess) and the sexy sandals! Be careful- your av may end up on a foot fetish site! :lol: :lol:

I love the heart with Allo's print in it that your vet sent you- it brought a tear to my eye :wub:

All right, all! Show us yer feet! POeter, we've seen yer balls -- time to take your SHOES off . .. . . . . ....

Bwa ha ha! And then he did and we were all silent. For a man, those are GREAT feet! But, the question is, HOW do they smell? :P

Geoss is wreaking more havoc on her island! Love it! And padT has cows walking by in TexASS.

Suzzle- I think when you are pre, during and post-menstrual you should automatically be entitled to endless poutine!!!!!

Bunnie's Kiss Me (pheet :lol: ). The royal phalanges are conservative and well-groomed as is becoming of royalty.

So, here is the query: if one were to throw up while being dropped at breakneck speed, would the vomit travel upward or downward? Perhaps it would go up and you would meet it as you climbed back upwards after the drop.

The bog Topsfield Phair is here in 3 weeks- I could experiment and let you know- I believe what goes up (vomit) must come down (vomit).

And yes- this year there will be cosmo drinking and trampoline jumping (but not necessarily in that order) as I have had enuff of behaving!

I think I've found some common ground among us....

1. None of us seem to be anal-retentive house cleaners.

2. All seem to have a drinking problem.

3. There seems to be some sexual deviouncy going on, but I can't put my finger on it yet.

Sleezan- You got us right! I do believe drinking problem is an oxymoron- it's not a problem unless you run out!

I missed Ptaum- how are you? We miss you! I have decided I am ready for football because what the heck else am I gonna do all winter on cold Sundays. It's a good excuse to eat like a pig and drink. But here's my conundrum. I am annoyed by the fans of my New England sports teams (ah...Red Sox Nation and the Pats) so I don't know who to root for. Would love any input.

Did someone say Favre, as in Brett favre? Sigh.... :wub: He seems like a nice guy your mom would love.

You guys wanna see some intense finger-toes, I should put up a picture of the boyfriend's feet. He's 6'5'' and his feet match!

You go Bunnie! You know what they say.....hmm, what about his thumbs? <SNORT>

OMG. . . . .........I think I've just realized something BIG.

She is from BURUNDI.

Sleuwzin is a TWA!!!!

Em :lol: x 10

Shave off half and let's find out. :P

Oh My!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta photograph me pheet but the camera is in Boston in the back of Kurt's care. Excellent- time enough to polish!

Emaalox, you got me. I have been hiding as a Rushin double-spy, but am actually living in a secret encave in Arizona as a Burundian. I just got so sick of those Tootsie's always rapin me and stealing me vod Ka. Hell, we gots the same sun in Az, and I don't have to worry about all dat udder stuff. Got me an old car ro live in, a few chickens, and all I have to do is learn to read and rite English. I'll do that, soon. For now my black Burundian ass is happy.

Got to run. Sorry about yer dog, but great vet.

Good Morning, peeps!

Yes, Patrick's death.... .. ....so sad, and pancreatic cancer is a really tough way to go. :(:(

Does anyone else automatically think of undiagnosed gluten intolerance/celiac when an individual dies of any cancer even remotely related to the gastrointestinal system? It's an automatic now for me.....I guess I'm now at the point where there is gluten trouble under every upturned rock.

STOOPID GLUTEN! :angry:

Anyways, on to psillier things... . . . ....how about the news of Ellen Degeneres taking over Paula Abdul's spot on AI? :lol: Fantastic. I canna wait to hear the things she'll say. I'm sure she won't be contributing much in the way of useful musical critique, but MAN, she will be phunny!!

Em--I think she will be farkin phunny, I can see hear and Simon getting into some tifts too. I kinda lthink he is cute too....

I think GI cancers stem from gluten....such an evil addition to food!

I always wonder--me grandma also died from pancreatic cancer.

I don't watch AI, but I do like Ellen--I'll bet she'll be hilarious! :D

ranger Enthusiast

I'm not a huge fan of Patrick Swaze, but I liked him and enjoyed several of his movies. So, it surprized me when I started crying when I heard he had died. I very rarely cry. Maybe it's the underlying (not so underlying in my case) fear we all have of any kind of digestive cancer. He faught long and hard.

On a lighter note. Did anyone feel the earth move this am? I moved my crock-pot from the art desk to the kitchen, and actually put FOOD in it! :o Then, I LOOKED at the art supplies. Here's my delima. I built the art desk and it works out well. Places for books, supplies, ect. But, It's too high for a normal chair and to low for a barstool. The materials I used dictated the heigth. Even a big pillow doesn't work. What to do- What to do.

Being a black Burundian did not fit my lifestyle, so I'm back to being a shrinking, old, white, retired Ohioan. That's hard enough.

What to do- what to do. :huh:

If Sleezy is playing the part of the shrunken old lady, who's the twa?

Sleezen--Have you looked into a counter-height chair? We just bought a new table and chairs, and it's now much more complicated than it used to be, what wif the regular chair, counter height and bar height :blink:

I think the bar type is about 30" tall, the counter type is about 24".

Or, you could just find something comfortable and cut the legs off a little :D

ranger Enthusiast

Geoss,

Got my glasses on, am looking at the pic of Lyle. Can't tell. Cat, dog chicken? Can't be a chicken, they don't have teeph. But whatever, Poor little guy! Hope he gets better.

Son graduated from Yale. When I visited, it was SOOO Ivy Leagueish. Hard to believe something so horrific could happen there. The towns not so hot, but apparently it was a fellow student who did this. Ghastly!

I would hate to ruin a piece of furniture by cutting the legs shorter. Maybe I could cut a chunk of me middle out so my torso would be shorter? What to do- what to do.

Or, I could ship my art supplies to Soozie, so she wouldn't use them?

M-m-m-m (stroking chin...) interesting. You would prefer cutting out a chunk of yerselph rather than from a chair??? :lol::lol::lol: Do not know what to make of this! :lol:

How bout adding to the bottom of the table legs? Turning the whole thing back into a crock pot holder?

Perhaps Slobdazobogo (must now have African timbre) simply escaped from a tribe of ruinous Twa, who had begun the process of tribal head-shrinking on her. Sobogudi, do you have a teeny, weeny, wrinkly head? Like it's been in a big pot for a few days?

:lol:

Yes! I like this suggestion.....shorten thyself rather than a perfectly nice piece of furniture. Yer femurs are very long bones, Sleezbugdi - - you could spare six inches off 'em, easy. Or get an appointment with your local plastic surgeon and tell him you would like your neck eliminated.

Gah! Shades of the great Seuss, again. Would like to draw this .. ...... .. . :rolleyes:B)

Ya know, yer phootz are lookin mighty fine tonight. Maybe it's cause my head has been in a big pot for quite sometime now. Since the 60's, when I named my first born Sember. No wonder I'm so wrinkled up and pruned -faced.

First off, I loved Louise Nevelson- not her art, but her face. When I was 18, I wanted to look like her. Now that I do, I want plastic surjury. And it's out.

Speaking of sturgeons, Can a get a neck shortening? And, can this really replace caviar? It's a long roe to hoe. And, I am the hoe to hoe that row.

I am so tired from my head being in pot for so long, and I NEED some frosted brownies. Em- you want to draw Doc Swuuss That's where my art supplies should go. Maybe this is a sign for you to become an artist, and sooz and sleez to become corporate magots. And Petravinski and Jesskolnikov could join my son and poor dead Annie being smart at Yale. Jezibel should continue doing molecular stuff, but concentrate on the nutational rate. Bunzafire- bake some brownies. Send them to me, post haste. Jagnut, Pity, poTOMac....I have to go POTTY. Later

I got a egg!!!!!

ranger Enthusiast

I know I'm not supposed to apoligize on this forum thread, but I am. It's because my heads been in that pot for so long. I took a choc cupcake out of my freezer and am going to EAT IT. Then, I'll be better. Sorry I forgot some of you. It's so confusing forn a pee-brain like me. Tomorrow, I will start wring that book. It will be called " Sickles and Cycles". It will be about a Burundian woman who does bycicle races and has her period 24/7. She will have 7 viable eggs and use them all. It promises to be better than the new Dan Brown thriller, " How I was a Mason With Only a Pound of Washington Concrete"

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!
