Wasp #4 has been eliminated. I knew it hadn't left, but i hadn't seen it for two days....

-sigh-

Yes, i'm sure its dead. Dish soap works wonderfully if they land in something that a shoe can't get into, then i put it down the garbage disposal.

Got 4-5 inches of snow here, has melted off the trees but def still on the ground

(and my car). Up until there was already two inches on the ground yesterday

afternoon, the weather people were saying 'little to no accumulation expected'.

Little to no accumulation my ass! I love it when the stupid people who park on the

street get plowed in though, that always amuses me. :D

Who in hell was messin' with me with that crutch tip? . .... . ..I'll never know....ever since that day I've been scouring the neighboUrhood for some poor, lame man struggling along with crutches -- struggling because ONE of the crutches has no gripping, protective tip....... . .

Something dawned on me recently -- could it have been something else? I think I know a crutch tip when I see and handle one..... ..but is there anything else that is kind of like a crutch tip, that would make more sense being in my ho'tub? :huh: Like... .. .. .a rubber hat for somebody with a funny, tiny head?.....a cork for a massive, strangely shaped champagne bottle?...

Yes, and those would make MUCH more sense being at the bottom of my ho'tub.... :rolleyes::lol:

MORNING PSILLZ !!! :D

SNACKLING as I read these things.....simply LURVE the ideer of putting things in Em's ho'tub :lol: (butter dish, horses halter,

Um, Shroomie's coma !! :o:blink: good Lord, mine wasn't that fun bad.....glad you're better, Shroom !!

What else??? campbell's soup.......with grilled cheese.....delicious, ersatz lunch....sigh. But that REPORT button is definitely the color of BLOOD...whot does it mean ???

Party at Geoss's :lol: Wouldjoo guys believe, a couple of years ago, I was experimenting with the vile weed to see if it could help me sleep - hoping for a substitution for sleep meds. A friend gave me - not kidding - a HUGE mason jar full :blink: It did not help me FALL asleep, but helped me sleep more deeply....but the thoughts were too CRAY CRAY.....couldn't handle it.....I recently threw it all out :ph34r: was stale and old anyway, don't anyone get too sad over it. B)

SNAUGH......so sad for people already hit by the storm and now freezing on top of it :(

and what in hell has Leesargh got going on ??

pads....I have those exhausting dreams also, but usually they're quite fun.....was a James Bond dream the other night, Daniel Craig's head looming over us, superimposed....running for our lives......everyone on the beach - hundreds of us - got our own speedboat, which dropped from the sky, no one got hit by them......it goes on and on....never mind......

Perhaps half a Kong type dog chew toy? One of the kids broke something and distributed the pieces around so no one would notice? Something that fell out of a plane? A meteor from the far distant (and now extinct) Rubber planet? :ph34r: That give me an idea... alien rubber?

JNBunnie1 Community Regular

Actually, the rubber tip of a crutch very much resembles the rubber feet on

many metal fold-up chairs. Like the inudustrial-y kind? Can't believe we

never though of that before... :ph34r:

Something that fell out of a plane?

OMG. ... . .. ....THIS COULD BE IT....... . ....!! I never thought of it having fallen out of a plane!! That would explain its very arbitrariness, it's unexplainable, sudden appearance in the ho'tub.....it fell out of a plane, the moment the craft was right over my property. Of course. Some poor, lame passenger decided to push one of his crutches through his window...he broke through, but then suddenly realized his folly and tried to pull it back in, catching the rubber tip on the outside of the hole, and plock! Off it popped......dropping through the stratosphere, down, down, into my ho'tub.

Yep.

This tip was way too big for a chair or table leg.....even for a cane, methinks....

And it would be a lot easier to punch a hole in an airplane window with a crutch than with a fold-up chair....

All I can think of now is a tiny, unfortunate wee guy with a lil rubber cap on his head tripping and falling into the ho tub!

Yer sure there was nothin phloating on the water as you got in, Em?

mushroom Proficient

The only things I think of falling from a plane (besides wings of course, which I always used to keep my eye on in my early flying days :ph34r: ) are those blue froz en things that wouldn't last long in a ho' tub though, at least not in their frozen form, and wouldn't look much llike crutch tips when they melted :D:ph34r:

Hey Sports Fans!! . . . . ..hmmm not much enthusiasm ..

Hey fans of 9 yr olds doing uhhhMAZE-zing things! (Ahh there we go)

I'm watching espn now, but the clips were on my local news too.

9yo kid in Utah playing midget football (how unPC), definitely one of the smallest on the field, playing running back & being almost unstoppable, breaking tackles or scooting out of reach of the little boys giving chase. 35 touchdowns!

Her dad must be so proud.

actually laughed out loud. Such a feeling of comfort, to be analyzing the "crutch tip" again, over and over.....seems like it was a COLD

CASE when I was last here....case has been reopened.....but the idea of the folding chair out the plane window certainly does have some

merit and should not be overlooked......

:lol:

it doesn't, Pads! Such an enduring mystery here in the 'ville.......now pondering wee person with missing rubber hat....just doesn't seem likely, as rubber doesn't breathe?? not healthy for the head? But we just can't rule anything out :lol:

what is this young person's game you are all going nuts over??

Pads - I think if you use the blood-red REPORT button, that takes care of annoying relatives, and all manner of ills ;)

yes, very phunny and warm and cozy to be back :wub:

Have recently quit my wine and ALL alcohol <_<:angry: (necessary but difficult) - needed some PHUN back in my life ;)

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor. 
    • knitty kitty
      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."  
    • Scott Adams
      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
