my report button is TOTALLY blood red, no question about it.....nothing russet, tomato soup, crutch tip or Cambell's label about it....

this is highly suspishush....we each have different coloUrs of red? one of my ONLY innate skills is true pigment identification - I am a savant at the paint store :lol:

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?

:lol::lol: Tiny wee guy with a li'l rubber cap on his head......now, did I have anybody in my ho'tub around that time fitting that description?...... . .I mean, we're talking small head, here.....that could explain it -- poor wee bloke, sitting with us in the tub, inadvertently losing his rubber cap....this goes unnoticed, as we are all drinking wine, larfing away (probably at this guy's tiny head)...hmmm...this or the airplane.... .. ..they both make a great deal of sense...

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:

:huh:

What are these blue frozen things, Shrooomie?. . ..Icicles?. .. ...

Was there ever a PICTURE of this thing?

YES. I took one, when Ptaoughmmn and I were discussing which coloUr is most commonly used in the manufacture of crutch-tips. I said brick-coloUred, as this find in my ho'tub was....Ptoughmn seemed to think he'd seen a lot of black ones.....anyways, I took a shot of this crutch tip beside the brick siding of my house. 'Twas the EXACT same coloUr.........what does it meeeeeeean??...

and what in hell has Leesargh got going on ??

The flash mob was for the International Law Enforcement Conference for the 2013 Special Olympics. It was a small group of performers with a wide range of ability <_< It was fun anyway, but I almost hope it doesn't make it on youtube. :ph34r: But I only noticed the beginning because shortly after it started a young man....a special olympics athlete...got up and danced next to me. Didn't notice anyone else after that. :wub: He was adorable! It could've looked great after the beginning. I wouldn't have known!

Djya check the tub?

Weren't the Twa considerably larger than GI Joe/Barbie size?

(Oops *Aren't*! . ..sorry Twa!)

P'raps Sam Hill Manhead's original disposers dropped it whilst surveilling his whereabouts. Makes perfect sense if the crutch-tip doubled as a scale model for a Burundian hat for a Jeeyi Joe Manhead scale model of Sam.

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.

She was on our news as well . . . Has 35 touchdowns and something like 1900 yards rushing this season and she plays some defense as well but they didn't have any clips of it.

Sam Hill . . . :lol: :lol: :lol: . . . and I can't believe that tom brought up the Burundi as I was going to suggest them as well . . . totally forgot about the Twa.

Is anyone on here into video games?

I decided to play Legend of zelda: Majora's mask for the heck of it and started a new file. I'm just now realizing how ridiculously dark it is. Oh wow. If it were released today, there is no doubt it would be a "T" game instead of an "E" game. Scratch that, it is being rereleased for the WiiU (why nintendo, why?).

There is the trailer for it if your interested.

Em's post with a link for a ho' tub crutch tip.

Close enough........ . I am certain it is the large, brick-coloUred, rubber thing that goes onto the end of a wooden CRUTCH.

I said that one COULD probably wear it around one's neck. WOULD one? Another story. . . . .

laugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

WHAT IN HELL is a crutch end doing in my ho' tub?????? NO ONE 'round here wears crutches.

huh.gif

This is what I found (ONE of these):

http://images.allegr...EDIUM_IMAGE.webp

Now, could these things be used for anything else???

I think not. . . . . they're fer crutches!!!

No one, not any child, adult, neighboUr, who has been here or even LIVES around here, has crutches.

And where is said picture?

I will look for it....it could still be in my folder of old pics. I could actually look for the actual crutch tip itself, which I don't remember ever throwing out.... Could be in Jack's room, as he found this whole mystery fascinating, took it to school to the "sharing time" and explained its strange appearance in our lives. Apparently his fellow students looked at him like this:

:huh::huh::blink::huh::huh:

His teacher, to this day, probably wonders what ever happened that weird kid and his questionable family....

:lol::lol::wacko:

I am certain that I still have pics of SHM -- and yes, to comemmorate Patteigh's Great Phlipover, we should resurrect the SHM Avs in a Great, Syncronized Avatar Change.....

Jyaghnutt, you need to dig up my report on the finding of Sam Hill Manhead -- these poor newbies' heads are gonna explode with confusion.... :lol:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
