Gettin' up early tomorrow to go see Open Original Shared Link We're going to meet up sometime between 6:30 and 7, depending on how soon the closest person gets there and sit around for hours waiting for something to happen. :P I tried to convince my computer kid to camp out there overnight, but he wasn't up for it. I figure since everyone (who's anyone) from work is going, that it doesn't count as vacation, right?

Roger was just here this past weekend, performing The Wall. . . . . ...I wanted SO MUCH to go! Love how he arranges for each city to gather their own children's choir to perform with him and his band on stage.... . . ....

And yes . . ...... . ....men sleeping during sex... . . ...how in hell does that work? Or rather.. . . .. ..how does IT work? :rolleyes:

That's when we saw him (the 15th). He performed in Ct. The children's choir was amazing. He had the guitarist that used to be on SNL (G. E. Smith) in the band. It was beyond awesome. We had really good seats on the floor. I'm short so I still had to stand on tippy toes for most of it. Supposedly David Gilmore is doing Comfortably Numb at one of the Madison Square Garden shows for charity. We were wishing he would have done it in Hartford.

The next (and last) concert we have tickets for is U2 this coming summer. Then we can't endulge in anything else for a while because my son just started college and the tuition is more than twice our mortgage each month. He's worth it (though he's forgotten we exist since he left - other than bringing me an enormous bag of laundry over the weekend).

We're always online 5 minutes before tickets go on sale and have a seating chart in front of us. There are so many groups we'd love to see perform but just can't right now. I saw Pink Floyd when they were together. Also saw Live Aid and used to go to concerts in Central Park every week when I was in college (those were the days). Saw The Kinks at the Stardust Ballroom one New Year's Eve and it was a very small venue with a dance floor.

The Chosen One is here today making life miserable for all of us who aren't wanting/going to see him. The major freeway that splits Portland, the ONLY way to get from east to west and back again is CLOSED from 2-7!!!! WHAAAAAAAT???

When I worked in DC, I had to go past the White House or the Capitol to get home. They closed roads, helicopters shining lights in the cars. Almost hit a young Kennedy once as he stumbled out of a bar and in front of my car.

Man, if our Prime Minister is scheduled to appear somewhere outside of Ottawa, he's lucky if there are lunch reservations made for him. . . . .. . . . :lol:

Holy Smores!!! . . . It's gettin' kinda busy round here. Welcome to Loey and Cat! . . . and long time, no see GFinDC.

Lotsa drama here . . . can't get away from it . . . long story short (over the period of a week) . . . Smackl had chest pains . . . diagnosed with Costochondritis but lets get an EKG to be safe . . . then an abnormal EKG . . .Cardiologist wants to see him tomorrow . . . then a normal EKG . . . then an Echo just to be sure . . . then a clean bill of health. The only good thing was that we were dealing with a cardiologist so that if I had heart attack, I was already in the right place.

Fall Break!! I need it . . .

Were we in the same place? "A young Kennedy", Ford, Bush and DC caught my attention. Jenna was recently here for a private wedding.

I lived there fall 1985 to spring 1990 approx. We had the end of Mrs.Reagan and some of mrs Bush # 1. Worked at the children's hospital so the wives came to visit.

So sorry that you had to go through all of that. As you said at least you were in the right place. I was just diagnosed with an ulcer (from my capsule endoscopy) and it has to be biopsied. I moved to a new state the day after I was diagnosed with Celiac (I had been bedridden for 6 weeks prior to that) and the hospital I used was much larger. I don't have my biopsy scheduled for another three weeks because he wants to use a special anesthesiologist. I guess I'll just continue biting the bullet. At least my new GI is treating me differently (better demeanor and no longer dismissive).

OK, back to the songs, yes the weinie song was new to me. Downloaded a lot of music my son had purchased over the weekend. One was a 3 disc collection of David Bowie. Anyone remember Space Oddity? And his hair resembles

Vanilla Ice.

Why do people think young children like clowns? My son use to run away screaming if he saw one when he was 1-3 years old. When he was little older he use to watch the Power Rangers episode with the insane clowns over and over again (and then had nightmares, of course). He was in love with the dark haired female Ranger. Anyone remember her name? I think she was Kimberly. At that point i was just so happy to get past the Barney and Baby Bop phase.

Now he's at college and saw Emma Watkins (Harry Potter) for the first time last week. He said she was even more gorgeous in person. I asked him how he dealt with it and he said she deserved her privacy and way too many people crowd her. I was proud of him.

Jan-it, thank goodness The Smackster is ok! I can just imagine the week you had while all that testing was going on. Deep breath--and (((big hug)))

Used " So Delicious" hazelnut creamer today in my coffee. Yum! They should make this flavor of " ice cream". The creamer is too sweet to drink straight.

J and hub meet the governor today. He is dedicating the special center where he takes high school engineering classes.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
