OMG... .... . :lol: Last evening The Ripper was asking about the goings-on in Psillyville, so I proceeded to tell him about the TP debate. I then asked him if he could provide me with any case studies and/or peer-reviewed debates with flowcharts on the subject. This morning he provided me with this detailed study, which me must all now peruse.

I think I may be changing my vote now. . . .. . ...

Lord, I know! It is all now making sense. . .. . . . . ....must thank Jack for doing all this research legwork for me - - I now GET IT.

I just LOVE the musing forum voices afterward, but what I love more are the excellent diagrams.......this one in particular:

tp_diag02.gif

Followed by a short verbal explanation, and another terrifically analytic, yet easily understood, graphic........

Notice the dramatic difference in the amount of visible toilet paper. Ironically, it is the over-hung toilet paper that has both the most visible free sheetage and the least amount of sheetage free from the roll to do it. Now, this may not seem like a big deal on its own, but in these extra sheets lies your undoing. Observe.

I like the roll over the top simply because I can't stand it touching the wall, never mind if it's right or wrong. Glad to know there has been a study done....and I loved the pictures! Floaty eyeball, indeed. GJeoss gave me a memory bubble......empty rolls as do-to-doooo. We loved to play with those as kids (we were very easily amused back then!).

Glad to be caught up....phirst I got sucked into FarmVille on da Book (love that game). My sisters have been playing for months....kept sending me invites and gifts....I was too busy.....decided to take a little look and got sucked right into the vortex. Fun! THEN my computer went on strike for a few days.....I took a journey into the stringy guts to poke around.....phinally phound the problem. I hate being computer-less. I pheel so out of touch (not that I couldn't pick up a fone or anything).

Nikanik...hope the boys hand heals quickly and without problems. Hopefully it'll be a (hard) lesson on the results of lost tempers.

Hope yer all having a wonderful day.....like phinding a bright shiny penny (but then again....pennies have to real value anymore...do they?).

We really didn't want to have to send them.....we have family in NY and NH, and those have to be sent but since we're driving I put the push on to get these done.

As soon as I get home, I'll get to the others.

This is the third year in a row that we've moved or had some foolish thing happen right before the holidays <_<

I'm tired. :huh:

:lol: This is tremendous.... . . ....I shall use this expression tomorrow whilst teaching, and drive the students 'round the bend -- they are halfway there with all the crazy idiosyncracies, spelling puzzles and rule exceptions running rampant through our fine language... .. this just ought to do them in.

"Emily.. . . . ....you say "PANTS" mean les pantalons, the things you wear on your legs.. ...this is a noun. You say it is sometime a verb - - a dog pants when 'e is hot. Now you say this is ADJECTIVE? It is a crazy thing, this English".. . . ..

:lol:

Gawd, Paghtee, of course you're bloody tired! What a year you've had! And now you're rushing off to see yer boys up north.....you've had no real break yet from your big move. Hopefully you can relax a bit when you get there.

Let them serve YOU, dammit! ;)B)

Anywho.....we got the car pretty much loaded last night. I'm doing a last minute load of towels, and still have to pack the phood in the wee fridge but I guess we're ready. Mark had to go to the office for a while this morning and hopes to be out by noon.

Of course, I'm taking me computer, so I'll be popping in and out plus I'll be able to use Matt's computer whilst he's at work.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      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

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
