One of my nieces hooked up with a retired guy with a boat for a couple of years. Sailed the southern seas, she ran her business from the boat. Every now and then they moored at an island with an airport and she would fly off on a sales trip for a week or two. Eventually she felt too confined (Jane's an action kind of gal) and decided she was reading too many books - heck, there wasn't even a miter saw on the boat :o

Well.....let's look at the bright side.Psillyville has been a little tumbleweedy, lately. I'm sure her move will provide lots of interesting stories. You might even want to start a book, Em.Ummmm.......isn't there somebody who should be warned, though? :unsure: Do you have, like, a National Guard or sumphin' up there in Canada?.....the highway patrol?.......Homeland security?........Royal Mounties?........

The Ottawa Police will be getting a new chief soon. It's political. Perhaps the new chief will need a special briefing. (The current chief has been appointed to a seat in the Senate of Canada.)

Peg-Leg Pete?:lol::lol:

My legs are all genuine, even if the middle one doesn't work as well as it once did. :ph34r:

How about #2 ? Its' short and concise and to the point. Unless of course there was a 1 and a 1/2 we don't know about. Or a .5 before #1. Hmmm, getting into fractions and decimal points, scary stuff! :D

Hey! Get me on this. I've done the very life-like earrings.. . . .... .. I'd be assuming that this replica would need to be somewhat.......larger.. . .. .... . ...Gawd, I HOPE so.... .. .....

I like the idea of a pair. I'm always misplacing things and an extra is good to have around.

Did I really want to know this about POeter? I guess it's only fair if you consider what he has probably read about us :ph34r:

Oh but they're using titanium for prosthetics now! Much more durable :P

Wow......POeter could be a new version of the Bionic Man!

Hah! When I saw that DC had posted I was sure he was here to contribute to POeter's dilemma. He must get e-mail alerts when the testosterone level (albeit minimal, and I'm only saying that because Peter started it) in Psillyville rises *snicker*

Would a titanium one still 'rise'??

Titanium ( /taɪˈteɪniəm/ ty-tay-nee-əm) is a chemical element with the symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It has a low density and is a strong, lustrous, corrosion-resistant (including sea water, aqua regia and chlorine) transition metal with a silver color.

Sounds like a good choice!

At least there would be no risk of splinters :rolleyes:

Hmmm, well, no I didn't want to"contribute" to the Peopter's dilemma. Not sure how I would actually, or would want to. I certainly haven't beeng getting notifications on the daily status though, again not sure I would want to. :blink::ph34r:

Unless you meant "contribute" in the sense of helping? :rolleyes: Oh well then... :unsure:

Lets see, Crayon has some handy robot building chilruns around. They could prolly whip up sumthin. Prolly get an "A" in the competition too. Yeah, that's it, Crayon can help! :lol:

Hell, we've gotten descriptions and photographs of his balls.... .. . ..

Hmmmm. .. ..then there's fibreglass......

Fiberglass (also called glass-reinforced plastic, GRPOpen Original Shared Link, glass-fiber reinforced plastic, or GFRPOpen Original Shared Link), is a Open Original Shared Link made of a Open Original Shared Link matrix reinforced by fine Open Original Shared Link

Fiberglass is a lightweight, extremely strong, and robust material. Although strength properties are somewhat lower than Open Original Shared Link and it is less stiff, the material is typically far less brittle, and the raw materials are much less expensive. Its bulk strength and weight properties are also very favorable when compared to metals, and it can be easily formed using molding processes.

Common uses of fiber glass include boats, automobiles, baths, hot tubs, water tanks, roofing, pipes, cladding and external door skins. A less common application would be in the production of prosthetic penii.

Could be a winner, here.......strong, robust.....less stiff but less brittle........cheaper... . . .lightweight.....can be easily formed using a molding process..... .. ....

My oldest was giving lessons on hydraulics to a robotics team. Maybe titanium with a hydraulic ( compressed air) lift? If he needs a project for his mechanical engineering class, I'll have him consult with everyone here. ;)

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
