My son is having a World Cup party at his house.......

I'm having my house painted. They were suppose to start tomorrow . . . in fact they WILL start tomorrow but only with a partial crew. The rest wanted off because of the World Cup. Come noon, I lose even the few guys that showed up in the morning. B) It's all good . . . I got a pretty good deal so I'm flexible.

Last man standing! Wobbling is acceptable. :P

But they weeble and they wobble and they don't fall down! :)

Wait... . . ... . Korwyn has divulged that he does not follow football either... . .. . . . ..

Um... . . World Series of soccer?

.. .... . ...Triple Crown?

.. .. . . ... .Smackdown?

:rolleyes:

Isn't triple crown a whiskey? :) I like UFC/MMA, and baseball. Rugby is more interesting to me than football. But...since we don't have Cable or Satellite TV I don't watch much of any of them. :D

She drives the car to the airport. Takes all the keys with her. Or she could make a grand tour. Stop in Boston, Indiana, then KC, then Texas, then California, Portland, etc. I know I left a few out. She could pick us up as she goes. It could be the Psilly Grand Tour. B)

Yes, I am the closest to Em. Find your way to the 416, follow it to the 401 and head west. Fastest way is to take the 404 north and then come east on 16th Avenue. Shorter, but slower, you can get off the 401 at Kennedy Rd and come north. Then, from here, the shortest distance to almost anywhere in the States is west. Lake Ontario kind of gets in the way. ;)

We have an overnight guest this evening. Depending on how he gets along with the other residents, he may be invited to stay longer. He is ten weeks old and pure black with short hair. If he stays, his name will be Bagheera. :)

Please keep that here and don't say anything on FB. :ph34r:

That's right. She'll have to pick me up first. He might as well join us.

Closet purge has been accomplished. I went with the fairly conservative "If you haven't worn it in eight years, it goes" rule.

I had a Maine Coone mix. 'Puffball'. He was a very long hair cat, and when he was a kitten he would curl up in the palm of my hand and tuck his nose under his tail, close his eyes, and he would look like a giant dandelion puff because his fur would stick out every which way. He grew up to be a 24# monster cat. :) He passed away about 7 years ago. He was also one of the most talkative cats I've every had, and he hated it when I would sing. He would get up on my chest, stare me in the eye and chirp at me. If I didn't stop after two or three chirps (he'd give me about 20 seconds or so) he would - very gently at first - bite me under the chin. He would continue to chirp and bite harder until I would stop singing. :D If I played my harmonica he would flip out and attack my feet, or one of the other cats. One time he ran out of the apartment and jumped off the balcony into a bush. Which scared me since I lived on the second floor! He was fine though.

His brother brought a live bat into the house (before the apartment) in the middle of the night, turned it lose, and turned the house into a madhouse with me chasing a crazed bat and three crazed cats around my house in my underwear at one in the morning with a broom handle! It wasn't until afterwards that I realized my kitchen window curtain was open and my kitchen window was only about 10 feet away from my neighbor's kitchen window. I spent the rest of the night waiting for the cops to show up, and the next week wondering if they were going to make some comment to me about it. Apparently either they weren't up - or they just decided they really, really, didn't want to get involved! :D :D

Korwyn's bat! :blink::lol:

We have good friends in Australia, and some years ago they sent us a pic of them standing somewhere (Ayers Rock? The Outback? Canna remember). . . . .....and they were each standing with one arm outstretched. Perched on their arms were two HUGE, black bats, hanging upside down, big black eyes, enormous snouts and wings tucked in. They were the size of Maine coons, I believe. These bats are around this area, quite gentle and tame... . . ...dear gawd.:unsure:

Shroomie, whot can you tell us about these incredible, somewhat repulsive creatures?

Good thing you do not live in this part of Australia, Korwyn. Methinks the neighboUrs would not have been hesitating to call the authorities..... . .....:rolleyes:

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.  
    • trents
      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow. What is it from the wheat that you are saying becomes incorporated into the milk protein?
    • Scott Adams
      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go!  I'm certain you'll feel much better.   Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free.  The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities and food preferences can limit choices.  I can't consume fish and shellfish due to the sulfa hypersensitivity and iodine content, and dairy is out as well.  I react to casein, the protein in dairy, as well as the iodine in dairy.  My Dermatitis Herpetiformis is aggravated by iodine.   Blood tests for B vitamin levels are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change to show a deficiency.  I had subclinical vitamin deficiencies for years which affected my health, leading to a slow downward spiral.  Because the B vitamins are water soluble, they are easily excreted in urine if not needed.  It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   Wheat and other gluten containing grain products have vitamins and minerals added to them to replace those nutrients lost in processing.  Manufacturers add cheap vitamins that our bodies don't absorb or utilize well.  Even normal people can suffer from vitamin deficiencies.  The rise in obesity can be caused by High Calorie Malnutrition, where people eat more carbohydrate calories but don't get sufficient thiamine and B vitamins to turn the calories into energy.  The calories are stored as fat in an effort to ration out diminishing thiamine  stores.    It's time to buy your own vitamins in forms like Benfotiamine that our bodies can use well.   Not sleeping well and fatigue are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.   I'm certain Benfotiamine with a B Complex will help you immensely.  Just don't take them at night since B vitamins provide lots of energy, you can become too energetic to sleep.  Better to take them earlier in your day.   Do keep me posted on your progress!

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!
