I'm afraid you must gather your things and leave.

The Tribe has spoken. . . ... . ....

:lol:

My dad tells how his mother used to cook rabbits and chickens that she raised in her backyard. Used to butcher them herself--she died when I was 4, but she musta been a tough broad :P

This, um.... . . . . ..reminds me somewhat of MIL. Dunno if I have ever mentioned here how she was able to euthanize her beloved pet cat herself. Yes, she "put Ginger to sleep", by placing the old, arthritic cat in a plastic bag and tying it up. Apparently only took a minute.. . . . . . ... :huh:

:blink:

See, it woulda cost $170.00 to take Ginger in and have it done by the vet.. . ..can you imagine?? $170.00??! Abominable! Won't be paying for THAT... .. . . .....

Apparently I'm the cruel one in our house because one of the mice that I caught on a glue trap was soooooo stuck that we couldn't pry him off and let him go in the park (yeah, that actually worked once), So I filled up an old bucket with water and dropped the thing in-only lasted about 30 seconds. This, I have been chastized for. Husband, however, threw the last one away in the trash--still alive, still stuck to the board, to starve to death--and I'm the cruel one?! :blink:

Some guy came into our ER last night and lit himself on fire-in the waiting room! Luckily staff extinguished himself and they had to transport him out to another hospital with a burn unit, but good Gawd!!! Twas a suicide attempt, but I think that's the dumbest way to try to kill yerselph....More than likely you will survive and you'll be in horrid pain for the rest of yer life!

Everyone but Russell, close your eyes for this post.

The smell takes days to get out of the ER. (barf face)

I knew there was a reason the hospital taught us to put patients on fire out.

So, I know when your nose runs it's called 'rhinorrhea'. When your arse runs it's called 'diarrhea'. But what is it when your eyes run? My eyes have been pouring clear liquid from the outter corners all morning and it's driving me CRAZY!!!

Guess what I have now...

I can't help feeling I murdered Bugs Bunny. Am I still allowed here?

I dunno.....our beloved Bunnie might have something to say about it. Would not be surprised if we got one of her infrequent poop-ins about now :unsure:

If he really wanted to kill himself, he picked the wrong place to do it :rolleyes:

Welcome Dixie!!! That's the first time I've ever seen one of us try to talk to the visitors and someone actually answers back! :P

I hope you all don't mind if I pop in from time to time.

Haven't had time to read this thread today. Filling out medical releases for my next test (they're scaring me), yelling at a company that took my money and hasn't shipped the overpriced product, and I'm cooking my husband rabbit stew (Is it What's Up Doc or Fatal Attraction)? He spent a great deal of his childhood in Spain and they caught, skinned and cooked rabbits. I bought one at the Farmer's Market yesterday and it looked like a roast. When I went to cut it, it was a whole skinned rabbit AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! It does smell good. It's supposed to taste like chicken. He deserves a treat because he's been beyond supportive. I put in things that I can eat. I can't help feeling I murdered Bugs Bunny. Am I still allowed here?

My son would not be happy about the rabbit. We have three as pets. He won't even eat fish because he likes them.

Oh yeah B)

Going back to the songs - How bout the Kinks song Lola L o l a Lola. I listen to the radio when I take a shower and it was on today. Now I can't get it out of my head. I was lucky enough to see the Kinks at the Starlight Ballroom one New Year's Eve (brain fog I think I already posted about it) and man were they amazing. One of the many songs they played was Lola.

With the name Lois I've been called LoLo, Lola, Loey (that one came from my hubby and has stuck for 22 years) and let's not forget all the people who spell my name Louis (and no I don't walk like a woman and talk like a man).

P.S. What does ph34r.gif mean?

Now that's scary. Glad you didn't see it. Could your runny eyes still have something to do with that even if the air smells clean?

Hey.. . . . . . ....is he single? Think he and my MIL might be a match made in heaven. . . . . ..

However, MIL swerves to avoid pedestrians and animals, and has been unsuccessful on occasion. At least it has never been while she was driving MY car. She has only smashed into the kids' bikes, our big lamp-post, DH's car and many snowbanks while in my vehicle... . . . . ..no people as yet, so I am considered pretty fortunate. :huh:<_<

P.S. What does ph34r.gif mean?

Low-ihss! That little emoticon signifies the desire to stand in front of a net and block pucks, as it looks very like my daughter's face when she stands in full helmeted and padded regalia, staring down the opposing forward as she comes screaming down the ice toward her.. . . .... . :rolleyes:

Actually, it really DOES look like her li'l face.. . . . . ....! :lol:

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
