I don't know WHY it's offensive to say someone is Mexican, . .. . .

I thought 'twere cuz so many espanol habla-ers aren't mexican??

Previously Guatamalans, Peruvians, Cubans etc etc etc were wrongly lumped together?

If I'm catching up, I try not to bring up stuff from too many pages, or ideas, ago. Don't wanna disrupt the flow.

:( yaaaaaa but I'm doin' it anyway ;)

Well, innocent one, I think you eat them.

PTAUM!!!!!!!!!! Ptaum would know!!!!!!!!!!! <summoning him now>

Why are these shrooms so psychaedelic????

It's the silly uhhh psilly errr psilocybin (sp?)

Everyone should experience it once. :wacko: It does exist naturally on our earth so it seems possible to make the argument that it's either a mistake by God or here to be experienced. Not that I'd make such an argument personally.

Anyhoo . ...they are simply eaten, whether fresh or dried. Taste horrible, tho I've heard peyote's worse. :blink:

Also heard that cooking them would be a mistake, potentcy-wise, but don't remember anyone testing that theory.

Once we used a blender for a shroom milkshake :P :mmmmmmface:

BAND NAME!!!!!!

When I was living in Arizona, we had the privelage...priviladge...privilige honor of experiencing the 7 year locust which was actually flying grasshoppers! They were EVERYWHERE!!!!<shudderx100>

Couldn't take a step without either raising a cloud of grasshoppers or stepping on a jillion of them<aaaccchhh!!!gross!!barphface!!!> :ph34r:

PTAUGHMNNUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....Were you in Tucson that year???????

Nope. Wondering what year that was .. ...

I sure remember the 17yr cicadas in Chicago in either 78 or 79. The dead masses under the streetlight a few houses away made a certain crunch.

:huh:Oscar???? Is that the alter-ego of a psilly when he/she feels grouchy?

How does almost everyone know who Oscar is??? :unsure::huh::(:angry::unsure::o:blink:

From the Elisabeth Hasselbeck thread:

I wonder if she likes llamas?

Well, hello there Oscar. How's things down on the street?

Why did nobody tell me WHO Oscar is???? - much less LLama laydee or maybe EH :huh:

I'm confuzzled

Me too :huh::unsure:

Nae, nae, Barb is my newest, bestest friend. She is going to catsit Miss Emily for us whilst we is gone, and is living in our little unit out the back this month (between housesits) in exchange for some gardening. Now when I say "SOME" gardening, Barb is totally awesome. And we have become good buddies. I am introducing her 'round the neighbourhood since she's going to be here for a while, so took her to garden club yesterday and we came home with three free plants (I won the door prize, a Boston fern for Miss Em to chew on--it's going in de bathroom) and some English lavender and a beautiful red grassy thing which I have no idea where I will put. And then Bev is going to give me some Aloes for the tuis to feed on. T'was a productive afternoon and then Franciszka from next door gave me some seedlings of leeks, kohl rabi and florence fennel from her greenhouse so the veggie garden is filling up. what with all the transplanted volunteer lettuces from everything going to seed, and the transplanted spring onions which will now become real onions in de spring. Aye, I luvs gardening especially when someone else is doing all the bending and kneeling. :lol:

Oh, Moon-shroom nightly-bloom, that was lurvely!

well, do you carry Llama Chow? that may be the reason......

      Not sure what you mean by "poor iron levels" if 30 is normal (upper end of normal range) and you are 29. (at least, that's how I read your post. Seems to me that your iron (ferritin) is normal, whereas before it was too high (40). At any rate, your post made me curious, so I copy pasted "Does it actually matters if my iron levels are poor, if my hemoglobin is normal" into the google search bar. According to Dr google, it does matter and they had a lot to say about it.
    • cristiana
      Hello All I think I started a thread on this subject some time ago, but now can't find it.  Or possibly it was someone else's thread that I hijacked - and that's why I can't find it! Anyway, I have a rather complicated issue with iron and I'm wondering what to do about it.  Or even if it matters. Pre-menopause, when I was first diagnosed with coeliac,  my ferritin levels were dreadful and I had to supplement.  It soon became apparent that I had to stop, as once my iron anemia cleared up, my hemoglobin levels reached high normal, verging on a condition known as polycythemia.   High normal in my lab is 15.5 for women, and my level has hovered between 15 and 15.5 The highest my ferritin levels have ever been is 40 (30 being normal) since I started my gluten-free journey - I reached that level about three years ago., about a year post menopause.  18 months later my ferritin had gone down to 29, which I think I can explain because I've been avoiding red meat.  This was a conscious decision as I have  discovered that I can keep my hemoglobin levels at safe levels so long as I don't consume too much iron.  My gastroenterologist also told me not to supplement it.     I have recently had a colonoscopy and have done a FIT test to detect bleeding, both came back normal.  So I feel that the reduced iron consumption is probably the reason for this new deficiency.  But I have two questions: A. Does it actually matters if my iron levels are poor, if my hemoglobin is normal?  (I do feel a bit tired, but surely if my hemoglobin levels are normal I shouldn't?) B. Would my last TTG blood result of 10 (cut off point for normal levels at my lab)  be affecting my absorption of iron? Thanks! Cristinaa

      This would definitely be an interesting study. We did an article on this a while back:  
    • Scott Adams
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      For people of European ancestry, 2% is about average, depending on which study you look at. For Asian ancestry it can be higher. For full Sub-Saharan African ancestry it is zero, but in practice they tend to have trace amounts due to migration back into Africa. While each individual may have 1-3% Neanderthal DNA, it is not always the same DNA that is Neanderthal. Estimates are 20-70% for which parts of the human genome might be Neanderthal in any given individual. Another way of saying this is that 20-70% of the Neanderthal genome survives in the human population. The HLA genotypes that confer susceptibility to celiac (necessary but not sufficient) are known to be of human in origin. There are some other genes known to be associated with a higher probability for getting celiac (with the right HLA genotype) that are associated with Neanderthal DNA. However, there is no correlation between quantity of Neanderthal DNA and probability of getting celiac. Neanderthal DNA is associated with other autoimmune diseases. Lupus, Crohn's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis are probably the most strongly associated diseases.
