Jin, I think you might have asked on the OMG thread, but since the hair discussion is here .... I think it is mainly a lighting issue ... it was blonde and dark this time and was last time. I have a little more blonde, but only in places you couldn't see in the previous avatar since it was such a close up. I still have the dark, but it was a much brighter place.

I dated a guy who looked like a cross between John Stamos and Charlie Sheen ... really good looking guy. :)

Tom, do you really want to know if the gentle glide are gentler??? I don't think you do .... I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Now we know why Patti likes Halloween. :)

Okay, okay okay...we do NOT have the Gentle Glider classification here in Canada. I know this, because I have travelled the country and likely shopped for these things in each province. Now why is that? Alex, have you seen these anywhere up here? Canadian women would appreciate gently gliding things as much as in any other country. Nikki, are they available in the UK? When I was over there I did NOT see them, nor in Paris...strictly an American thing? Man, we likely need a gentle glider more than anybody else, as it can be bloody cold through winter...And we could advertise MUCH better up here..."I'm an active woman, and I need the Gentle Glider," says a robust Canadian woman as she glides down a ski hill. :lol:

Carla- I think your hair looks great! Just for the record! :)

Yes- I know what a GENTLE GLIDE TAMPON IS. I'm a GIRL you goof (Tom) what I meant was I didn't know how King Richard knew. But not he has explained himself.

#1 - Married man

#2 - Have been sent to store a time or 2 before with VERY SPECIFIC grocery list

#3 - Prefer the manly blue box

#4 - Can never buy just what's on list...must bury said unmentionables under a stack of innocuous items.

#5 - Refuse to use coupons

#6 - Have been annointed "worlds Greatest Husband" on numerous occaisions rolleyes.gif (even awarded several distinguished service medals for meritorious achievement and going over and above the call of duty)

Hee hee!!!!!!!!!! When I was on my honeymonn in Costa rica I was accompanied by my friend which was NOT due anytime soon (I was told that getting closer to the equator whacks your body out :huh: ). Unfortunately the owner of the inn's wife was preggers at the time so no supplies so they sent Roberto out for "supplies". Try being SPECIFIC in espanol :o

Thanks. :)

I've heard of the gentle glide ones ... they've also changed the regular ones here ... Morgan and I are both upset they took the string out of the paper overwrap ... they're much more difficult to open. :P

I do love the pearls though :) although pricey the I like the braided string.

No no no!! . . ...the angle I was interested in is whether it's another bloody obvious (to the women) marketing ploy thought up by a man.

(There'd been something similar discussed on OMG quite a while back, in which I was surprised at the unanimity of disgust at some tv comm'l)

At the risk of revealing too much personal information, I can vouch for the fact that the gentle glide are more gentle.

And the cardboard applicators are HEINOUS.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular
gentle.

And the cardboard applicators are HEINOUS.

I so agree!

Roberto sounds like a good sport. :P

. . . . you goof (Tom)

Whoa! 1st I read it as "goob". :D

Yoohoo! Pseu-zee!! Whatever happened to calling everyone a goob. :blink:

I think it's a fine word & and a nice reminder of Mayberry & Gomer's cousin.

(Ack!! Why the HECK do I remember that Goob was played by George Lindsay? Can trivia be much more trivial than THAT?) :o

<tom now regrets the gentle query into the presumed men's marketing of women's products> <_<

Yup--I agree. Of course, since I've had my hysters removed, I no longer have a need for them. B)

Stupid, pinchy cardboard :angry:

nikki-uk Enthusiast
And Tom, yes, you can come to my party

Can I come Bevy Wev ...oh please...I promise I'll behave !!!!

No 'Gentle gliders' here in the UK :(

At the risk of freaking Tom out (Richard can take it - he's married) I am strictly a Tampax brand girl .Do NOT like the plastic applicator types (doesn't flush)

Stupid, pinchy cardboard :angry:

:lol: Ooooer, yes, ...OUCH !!!! :lol:

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

For some reason the cardboard always made me feel "dirty" not sure why though.

elye Community Regular

I'm a cardboard girl myself. You just flush it away...gone forever, and totally biodegradable. Don't find it pinchy. So, are the Gentle Gliders (sounds like a freaking Olympic syncronized swim team) cardboard or plasic? Bev, did Roberto find you gliders in Costa Rica?

jerseyangel Proficient

Lookie here--free gliders!

We do however have an virtual Tampax university campus. Hours of fun! :P

Me, too, but I've clogged too many plumbing pipes with the applicators, so stopped trying to flush them about 20 years ago!

That was the one thing my mom harped about the most when we lived at home. My sisters and I all used tampons, religously. My moms biggest thing was they are not flushable even if the box says they are.

CarlaB Enthusiast

Yeah, the most mortifying time was when I was staying at my step-aunt's while my mom and step-father were gone. I flushed ... I even waiting till it discintegrated ... a few minuted later, the ceiling started leaking in the first-floor dining room out of where the light fixture was. I don't know if they ever figured out what caused it, but based on the timing, it was apparent that I had. :ph34r: It was a newly-renovated historic house.

Mtndog Collaborator

OMG- I take a nap and wake up in Tampon Hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, I have a confession, I hate them all, even the gentle gliders (that synchronized Olympic team). Just don't feel like THOSE belong THERE :ph34r:

You are ALL invited to my party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And while I was sleeping, Uncle ray was at it:

Choosing A Wife

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing

among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.

The first does a total make over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon gets her hair done, new make up and buys several new outfits and dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much.

Again, the man is impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he'd given her.

Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

Men are like that,

you know.

There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by 2040, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them. :D

      Hi  Scott  Thank you for the feed-back. I fear I did not correctly state what I was 'attempting' to convey. So much for writing at 11:30 at night.  To be specific, I was concerned about Gluten Cross-Reactivity e.g. Cross- Reactivity between a-gliadin and non-gluten foods consumed on a GFDiet. The following comprises my reading so far on this subject:  (If you cannot find these let me know and I can send them to you via email.) "Good for You Gluten Free" article Titled "Understanding Gluten Cross- Reactivity & Gluten Cross- Reactive Food.  Their reference is "Food and Nutrition Science Vol 4#1 (2013).  Further, a scientific paper written by:  Aristo Vojdani & Aristo Tarash titled "Cross-Reactions between Gliadin and Different Food & Tissue Antigens". A very interesting paper.  As several of the non-gluten foods affect me, as I mentioned in my letter, I am wondering if it could be connected to this topic. I would be interested in your thoughts on this. The paper by the gentlemen listed above is particularly interesting.       All the best, Florence

      Awful terrible burning pains recently. Got suicidal thoughts from this crap yet again. I'm going to try doing low carb again as meat and veg type food has in the past reduced it. This is doing my head in.

      Current careteam is still up in the air about my celiac thanks to me googling "celiac specialist" what popped  up was once known as a good name hospital back in the days. I went in for answers for my declining health, it was the autoimmune part that did me in, being a former bus driver.I read that in my medical records so easily downplayed, i refused the gluten challenge! Why the hell would I eat Gluten when im Celiac coming to them for answers when my body is falling apart? Glutenfree since 1994. They did unnecessary colonoscopy KNOWING im glutenfree. A celiac specialist would know that would be pointless to do if not eating gluten and it was done!Im so angery with that hospital for not explaining celiac disease and withholding information, Downplaying my ailments , mental distress,  causing more health issues, ect. All this could have been avoided If medical records were sent, when asked, explained and done properly. Im so angery.I do have the celiac dietitian on here in June and linked her up to my current health care yesterday, fingers crossed hopefully with that, the understanding of celiac is explained it's not just a food allergy will be understood.
