Professor Ted is me....my initials are T.E.D. Some of my co workers call me Ranger Ted at the Park Service :P

What I meant by like units, 2 of the same species, being alike but not identical, means it could be male and female, (or 2 males, or 2 females if you prefer....but 2 of the same sex are identical in anatomy as well as alike). I guess I didn't make as much sense as I thought I did :lol:

Good evening me Psilly Peeps!

Woot, me Steelers won the SB :)

All this Male Merging talk is so very phunny :lol:

Soozle has a new chest :lol:

SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nikki has snaugh!!!!! Pretty pretty shiny sparkly snow!!!

I should call to see how many nanoseconds until THEIR Flash Read-Enable Latch falling edge shows!! :lightbulboverheadface:

------------------\____/------

Say what?!?! Watch your maths mister!

Well, yeah....that too. And extreme fatigue. My chiropractor keeps it manageable most of the time. That and good vitamins and a high protein diet have allowed me to cope without my meds.

Diet has helped enormously with my fibro as well

I have made a snowman wiv Al, but (you must understand 'we' don't get much practice).....it is CR@P!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

This cracked me up :lol: Surely it's the thought that counts!

John and I are "trying" we wanted to wait till we got to the house and no longer at the apartment before we embarked on that journey.

:D:D:D

Well......A "merge" by definition is a bringing together of like things......A company merger is the combination of 2 or more companies into one, a municipal merge is the amalgamation of two or more cities into a big metropolis.... therefore, male merging would involve two males. ........

:rolleyes:

Well natch :lol:

Baby update . . . I have heard that my friend's baby boy is responding well to the synthetic surfactant (to help lung development). If all continues to go well, he should be able to go home in about a week. My friend was finally allowed to hold him. :wub: Thank you for your prayers and well-wishes.

Very good news :)

Soozie is collecting butts!

This sentence cracked me up too, so very easily amused (or immature, not sure which?!?!)

Amanda--I've meant to comment on this all day.....how great that you are "trying" :D

Julie said "sparkly" <eyesglazeover> Love that word :D

Nik--we saw yer snaugh tonight on the news :)

Big news: Our house sold today--after 5 days on the market :o:o:o We had 4 showings, and as of this afternoon, 4 offers. We've switched into high gear--they want to close March 17. Oye. :huh: I was sure this was gonna take at least a couple months, if not more. Our tentative plans were based on that timetable, so now we have to find a place to live. Matt is still deciding what he's going to do--stay or go with us.

I'm actually getting excited, but then I get teary all the time when I think of moving so far away from my boys. All these emotions are incredibly exhausting :( I can't thank you all enough for being there when I need a "sanity break"--seriously I don't know what I'd do wifout me sillies :D

Holy Smores Patti!!! That was FAST!!!! I guess it was all meant to be!!! I love to shop for houses. I hope you take us along and help you pick something out!!!

psawyer Proficient

Patti, great news about the house. These days it is very much a buyer's market, so to have multiple offers is amazing.

I used to have butts, of the sort to which Suzie spoke, but I quit producing those in April of 1990. Hmmm, must sit down and ponder this. Perhaps approaching the problem from the other end will provide an answer. ;)

Amanda, I seem to recall what might have been a similar topic when I made my first psilly post back on page 327. B)

MALE MERGE and all ensuing conversations!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: x 25

Ahhhh yes I thought mine didn't count as fibro w/out the resting pain.

Maybe I need a chiro o' me own tho. :unsure:

UM...no........upon applying inserting the carrot (for a nose) the head split in two, then fell off

:lol: :lol:

Quite a migraine from one lousy carrot.

<i swear it felt like me 'ead 'twere splittin' in 'ALF!!>

.......and then spotting the Lilliputian SNAUX MAN on me neighbor's lawn?????????? BAH HA HA HAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great house news!

I made this wonderful scrub! Pour some table sugar into a jar, and add a little olive oil and stir. If you want it thinner, add more oil.

I wanted it to smell nice, too, so I added a few drops of almond extract, and some dried lemon peel.

It's a pleasure to wash my face with. I can't wait until it runs out so I can try other flavors. I'm thinking next - poultry seasoning.

Mornin' peeps!

Patttttteigh!! Congratulations!! :):o Such a quick sale, a bidding war, even, in this economic climate - - amazing. Now the phun really begins. Yes, PLEASE include us in your journey to find your new home! Listings with virtual tours, please!

Nikerler! Your neck of the woods is all the talk over here.. . . . .in the World section of our paper there is a screaming headline, "LONDON SQUALLING!" :o

... .and you are to receive another 30 cm?? Now this is noteworthy.....a 40 cm dumping is news even for US. :lol: We wanna see a Calvin psaough army in yer front yard. . . . . ....

Have had no time lately to make gatherings of li'l snow people. . ... :angry: Must try to do this in the next few days. I would like to make a Mr. Chow effigy, perhaps in the Child's Pose . . .. ....

Okay, peeps, need yer help on a wonderful decision I must make: the City of Ottawa is running a city greening program, and is offering each household a free tree. We choose the tree, and it will be delivered in May to our homes, all bundled up and ready to plant. We can choose either a big or small tree, and I think I'll have to go for a small one.....just don't have enough room for another sugar or red maple.

So, should I get a crabapple, a serviceberry or a Japanese lilac? I think I love them all.. . . . ...... :rolleyes:

Morning Sillies- today is the test! I should have DSL today.....if I don't heads will be rolling @ Verizon!!!!

Great news Patti! What a sigh of relief. Now you won't have to worry about the snow anymore....or cold! LOL! Sometimes I have conferences in TX so if I am close maybe we can grab lunch or starbucks or something :):):)

Hi ewveryone else. I am training today! Phun Phun!

flourgirl Apprentice

Oh Taaawwwwmmm! Thank you thank you thank you for the Calvin phunnies. I used to have a book of C&H, it was my sons favorite book for many years. I think he may have it still, dunno. Comics these days seem to lack phun, imagination and intelligence.

Pahdti! Great news on the fast sale. That's pretty amazing. Obviously (to me, anyway) someone is watching out for you. I have no doubts that things will work out wonderfully and smoothly :)

Niknik.....yer in ALL the papers and TV! Well, maybe not you personally :lol: . What's it like to have everything shut down like that? Hopefully it will be short run and not cause any major problems!

Mandas phinally getting DSL. We had a real run-in with verizon. when we moved we were supposed to carry our email addresses with us to the new phone number....but some "wizard" cancelled our accounts all together and we had to set the whole thing up all over again. Took quite a while to straighten that out....we had withdrawal pains from lack of email..web access :lol:<_<

Hope it phinally works out!

Em! FREE TREES! A crabapple may get large depending on variety. I don't know how small a space you have. A lilac can be trimmed to size if need be (just be careful to trim immediately after flowering because it needs to set the next years buds).

What?! Rubbing herbs, and spices and sausages all over oneself.......never heard of such a thing :lol:

My vote is for the lilac, they are my favorite and so beautiful and enjoyable epecially when in bloom :D

Very cool idea--I'm gonna try it! Now for the holidays we could add pumpkin pie spice :P

Of course I'm taking me sillies on me new adventure :rolleyes:

We've decided to rent for 6 months to give ourselves time to find not only the right house, but the right area since I've never been there and Mark has so far only spent 24 hours there. ;)

links! pics!!

Yep Em...... I know what a crabapple looks like.....very pretty, especially in the spring. The other two, I can't picture.

Sometimes I have conferences in TX so if I am close maybe we can grab lunch or starbucks or something :):):)

That would be great, Amanda! :D

Those are all very pretty--I do think if you choose the crabapple you'll be pleased. The one we had in Syracuse was beautiful, a nice shape and gorgeous flowers. :)

      I don't think we can say that just one thing, whether vitamin D deficiency or emotional trauma, or a viral infection, or what ever is always what triggers the onset of celiac disease. We do know there is a genetic component to it and there is increasing evidence that factors creating gut dysbiosis (such as overuse of antibiotics and preservatives and environmental toxins) are major players. Hybridizing of heirloom wheat strains to increase the gluten content by multiples may also be a factor.
    • trents
      Thanks for the follow-up correction. Yes, so not 10x normal and the biopsy is therefore totally appropriate to rule out a false positive or the unlikely but still possible situation of the elevated lab test number being caused by something besides celiac disease. 
    • Waterdance
      Thanks. I believe I can trace my gluten and milk allergies to specific traumas in my life. I've had some quite severe traumas over my lifetime. Mostly in my history I was so out of sorts surviving that diagnosing gluten sensitivity/allergy/celiac was just not on the table for such a survival mode existence. Vitamin D makes sense too. Now I take very good care of myself, I have a rock solid stability and I do take 1,500 IU of D daily. It's more obvious to me now what's causing problems and so most of the time I only eat protein and vegetables. I cheat sometimes. I end up paying for it though. 
    • Heatherisle
      Thanks everyone for replying. Actually made a mistake when stating the lab range for results, should have been 0.0-7.0 not 0.7 u/ml. She was 19 u/ml. I’m afraid science bamboozles me especially trying to understand all the IgA’s and other bits!!!!Regular blood results like full blood count etc not so much!!!!

      DiGiornos gluten free pizza at one point was  made from a dough derived of wheat starch...yet they were able to call it gluten free probably because it came in at under 20ppm for gluten.  Apparently the recipe was changed and the pizza not longer contains a wheat starch derived crust.  As for the Heinz dressing, it could be an issue with cross contamination with wheat barley and or rye somewhere during the production process.  If you read how Frito-Lays (on their website) designates items gluten free, you will understand the variances in the lengths companies go through in deciding when to put on a gluten free label and when not--Frito-Lays is pretty solid.  Also being in Canada, they may follow a common international rule of less than 20ppm of gluten is all that is required to be labeled gluten free regardless of the grains used to manufacture the product (common in Europe, Central, and South America)...it took a couple of really rough mornings after consuming some Dura Damm (labeled as gluten free outside the USA) for me to realize that it was a gluten reduced beer. Same with Mahou Beer which actually says in Spanish "suitable for celiacs", unfortunately it is not suitable for this celiac and of course the following day was really rough as well...really take the time to read the ingredients because had I read the ingredients of  Mahou's "suitable for celiacs" "sin gluten" beer I would have noticed that it was made from cabada (Spanish for barley)...hope this helps...
