Chuck Norris is NOT GAY!

The agent of Chuck Norris asked Chuck if he wanted to be in Brokeback Mountain. Chuck Norris' agent has been missing for almost 2 years now. Never ask Chuck Norris to be in a gay cowboy movie.

Chuck Norris delivers more male with one thrust of his pelvis than the U.S. Postal Service and the Pony Express have combined for the last 146 years. :ph34r:

When Chuck Norris has sex with a man, it won't be because he is gay. It will be because he has run out of women. B)

Wilt Chamberlain claims to have slept with more than 20,000 women in his lifetime. Chuck Norris calls this "a slow Tuesday." :o

Any more questions? ;)

Agreed. And yes, Patti is a woman. Slow Tuesday indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The Queen humbly apologizes for making the King blusheth! :unsure::rolleyes:B)

BRING ON THE MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!

Oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh :( I missed such a busy day. The flurry of posts might be better called a blizzard!

Quick Tip: In a blizzard, let the Yeti lead.

(Hard to say "let the Yeti lead" 3x fast w/out a "yet the .. . ." sneaking out)

Simply atrocious timing for my crappy day. Maybe crappiest since May. :( I *did* try to read some in the AM, but wasn't even capable of a smile, much less the giggles and guffaws those posts deserved. So I stopped, to save them for a better mood.

I was thinking it could've been caused by the organic tomatoes I tried the day before. Or the far-older-than-usual rice tortilla. But I think I have to go w/ breathing FREAKING BATTERY ACID FUMES!!!!!! :angry:

I bought a brand spankin new car battery the day before my last trip and had it in the trunk. (Or sort of a trunk, it's more of a hatchback but a partition thingy makes it not look hatchbacky. Airflow knows it's not really a trunk) (sorry Nikki, I can't write 'boot'. Even my skiboots aren't big enough for a car battery)

Anyway .. . . . . I go to put the new battery in and find that, while IT seems perfectly intact and unmolested, the cardboard box it was in has disintegrated in spots AND under that the carpeting has a completely bald area AND under that the particle board over the spare tyre is stained and partly eaten thru!! :o:angry:

HAD to at least drive for food - was away 12 days. :(

All the acid-soaked parts have been removed and today seems better so far .. . .. ..but a big GRRRRRRRRR for the timing of missing such a busy fun day!!!

King Richard posting more here than *I've* ever witnessed and I'm stuck unable to join in. :( Never imagined Chuck Norris as an untapped (to me) source of hilarity!! :lol:

OK then . . ..I should be packing but gotta try catching up too.

Happy Friday everyone!! :D

:lol:

But it was one of the MOTHERS that started it!

I'm way back in the 'frozen exotics' section (hard to find if you don't know where to look btw) checking prices on emu breasts & tapir chops, when I hear this woman, apparently trying to remember a recipe, continue to repeat "baste the yeti meat"!

Ok ok the truth is I only said "let the yeti lead" in my HEAD and was unable to say it ONCE w/out "yet the . ." coming out instead. Hehehehe I expanded it to 3x cuz it seems too ridiculous to fail on 1st try. :lol:

3 IS a Magic Number!!

One of my fav early 90s Bay Area bands - contemporaries of Green Day before *they* hit it big - named Helen Keller Plaid used to do "3 is a Magic Number" at shows!! :D

Then wasn't it the mid-90s when a celiac disease -OOPS! Compact Disc! - of remakes of Schoolhouse Rock came out, all done by big name bands?

hmm, guess I should mention that yesterday was the first day in a week that I managed not to eat something 'bad' for me and so I'm in that curious state of having slept well last night after five days of 4-5 hours of sleep. Feel rested and yet I am completely exhausted, and hence, a bit loopy

DingoGirl Enthusiast

Good morning sillies.......

alas, I have not much time for silliness today, have lunch and dinner out and also must mow lawns and such before the true rain hits.......so there should be about four entire fewer pages in today's entries. :ph34r::lol:

also am not feeling particularly silly.....alas, FULL BODY ACHE from running every day for the last two weeks in the orchard instead of walking......am falling apart. :( All of this in the futile attempt to lose 10 pounds (I"d even take five, for pete's sake)................... nearly impossible!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

that woman who BOUGHT ammo for her son :o ...............oh my gawd. Just look at her, sick in body and mind - - she is MY AGE and let herself become a psychotic blob, morphed into obesity from a pure gluten diet, no doubt. :angry: Psychotic, freaking IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait for her to receive the fate she deserves.............. in this life AND the hereafter. (remember I do transcribe the parole reports and have a modicum of knowledge of exactly what goes on in there. ;) she'll not do well)

OH! such deep thoughts for the silly thread! mea culpa! :huh:

but BTW I CAN say (and easily, I might add), "let the yeti lead" three times out loud!! :lol:

carry on sillies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Jess, this explains the sudden ability to construct such sophisticated, intricate, well-metred poetry. Excellent work! I will ask my MIL about whether or not these creatures are adequate leaders. One assumes they are solitary, so I'm gonna guess that no, one should NOT Let any Yeti Lead. Perhaps those who have had some orienteering or Boy Scout Jamborees in their past....

...Man, can you see a Yeti in full Boy scout uniform? Sash, necker and all?

      When they give you a blood test, there's a range they consider low to high from the results.  It's not based on how much vitamin you're taking.  My blood tests were low and then I took 5000 IU and they went too high on the blood test.  I also get exposed to D from the sun and I live in a very sunny area and I get D in some foods I eat.  I was very annoyed with the doctors because they weren't paying attention to the blood test results in order to help me figure out the optimum dose for me.  They just told me to take it when it was low on the blood test and didn't pay any attention after that.  Too much of a good thing is not a good a thing.  I hope the medical field knows enough to really know what the safe range is.  However, I would not go by just intake or sun exposure since how much each person can absorb is different.  That's why I wanted actual testing to determine my levels. Also, interesting points, about the choline.  I just saw some information about it yesterday and was thinking I'd better check if I'm getting the RDA.  This is the second mention I've seen on this in two days, so maybe the universe is trying to tell me something. If I get cramps in my feet, salt usually helps with it.  It usually means my electrolyte levels are off somehow.  I bought some electrolyte water from Sprouts.  I also try to add salt (Himalayan or sea) to my meals.  I always hear cut out salt from medical professionals.  I don't think they realize that when you make things from scratch and eat unprocessed foods, you've probably cut out a lot of the salt in an average American diet.  It can be easy to be too low on salt if you make things yourself. I've read selenium is important to balance iodine intake and one shouldn't have too much of one and not enough of the other.

      How high is too high?  I take 10,000 IU vitamin D3 every day.  My blood is stable at 80 ng/ml (200 nmol/L).  Even at 10,000 a day it took 8 years to raise it to 80.  Higher levels of 25(OH)D in blood can moderate the autoimmune attack.  Vitamin D Is Not as Toxic as Was Once Thought Lower vitamin D levels have also been associated with increased OCD symptom severity.  This is a most dangerous popular belief. As mentioned you are suffering from vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Part of the recovery, that is never explained by doctors, is replenishing your deficits.  Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption.  The Western diet is a diet of deficiency.  That is why many processed foods are fortified.  Gluten free foods are exempt.   "I’ve been completely asymptomatic since diagnosis."  There are 200 symptoms that can be caused by Celiac Disease and the malabsorbtion it can cause.     • "Floating, undigested stools for over a year now. Dont think its related to celiac as it was like this since im 17 and not 13-16( i got diagnosed at 13). " Many are misdiagnosed as gall bladder disease.  Choline is needed to create the bile salts needed to digest fat.  90% of our population is deficient.  Eggs and beef are the best source.  The RDA (minimum daily allowance is 500 mg to 3500 mg daily.  One egg has 27% DV.  Broccoli, chopped, boiled, drained, ½ cup only has 7%.  Low choline can cause Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.   Choline and Risk of Neural Tube Defects in a Folate-fortified Population; Could we be overlooking a potential choline crisis in the United Kingdom?;   Choline was formerly called vitamin B4.  I prefer phoshphatidyl choline for supplementation as it is the form we get in food.   • Chronic back pain started gradually, worsens with movement, lots of cracking/popping sounds.  Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to chronic back pain, But I took levothyroxine for slightly low FT4 levels.  I supplement Iodine by taking Liquid Iodine.  50 mcg per drop.  The RDA is 150 mcg to 1000 mcg in the US.  In Japan it is 150 mcg to 3000 mcg.  I take 600 mcg a day.

      I completely understand the frustration of finding reliable gluten-free ingredients—it's exhausting when trusted products disappear or companies don't respond to safety inquiries. For teff flour in bulk, check out Azure Standard or Bulk Foods; both often carry gluten-free grains in larger quantities and clearly label dedicated facilities. For soy flour, Anthony's Goods tests for gluten and offers bulk options, though always verify their current certifications. For beans, peas, and lentils, Palouse Brand is a great choice—they're GFCO-certified and transparent about their farming practices. As for lentil elbow macaroni, Explore Cuisine offers similar pastas, though cross-contact policies vary. When companies don't respond, I lean on third-party certifications (GFCO, NSF) or stick with brands like Jovial or Edward & Sons that prioritize allergen safety. It's a constant hunt, but hopefully these leads help! Have you tried local co-ops or ethnic markets for teff? Sometimes they stock bulk African or Indian brands with clear labeling.

      Beans in desserts are a fantastic way to add moisture, structure, and protein while keeping recipes gluten-free. Black bean brownies are a classic, but other beans like adzuki and pinto can also work well—adzuki beans are naturally sweet and often used in Asian desserts, making them great for cookies or cakes. Lentils, especially red lentils, blend smoothly into batters and can replace flour in recipes like blondies or muffins. Since you’re allergic to chickpeas, you might try navy beans or cannellini beans for a milder flavor in vanilla-based desserts. For less crumbliness, blending cooked beans into a paste helps bind the dough, and adding a bit of xanthan gum (if tolerated) can improve texture. If you’re experimenting, start with recipes that replace half the flour with bean purée before going fully flourless. Have you tried using aquafaba (bean liquid) as an egg substitute? It works wonders in gluten-free baking too!

      This may make you feel better about cross-contamination: https://nationalceliac.org/celiac-disease-questions/do-i-need-new-designated-pans-plates-and-utensils/ https://theceliacscene.com/rethinking-cross-contamination-no-need-to-be-so-careful/ I use Tom's of Maine or a toothpaste that states it's gluten free.  I have allergic reactions to some toothpastes so some of the toothpastes in health food stores are usually safer for me. They're typically gluten free as well. Spices can contain cross-contamination from gluten.  There are a few lists online of spices that are safe for celiacs.  I also grow my own herbs and use them in place of store bought when I can.  I think Badia lists their spices as gluten free and Spice Lab has some gluten free too. Knitty Kitty has a great point about nutritional deficiencies and B vitamins.  I got a lot of aches and pains when I got off gluten.  I tried to replace wheat with other healthy grains like teff, buckwheat and sorghum.  Limiting one's diet too much and not getting enough vitamins, can make someone feel worse.  A lot of the gluten free foods in the stores are made with lower quality ingredients than the wheat varieties.  I try to replace all my foods with homemade options.  Then I know the quality of the ingredients and which vitamins I may be high or low in.  Probiotics or prebiotics can help with bathroom issues.  Better to get them in foods if possible and not pill form.  My doctors keep recommending magnesium too.  It's not supposed to be taken alone, but they don't seem to care about that.  It's easy for vitamin D to be low too.  That was another thing doctors told me to take.  Unfortunately, they didn't monitor it and it went too high.  Again, better from natural sources like food and sunlight.  However, supplementing can help if you're not getting enough.  Some sources say to take D with K2.  You may want to have iodine levels checked.  If you add iodine, make sure to get sufficient selenium for thyroid.  You can get iodine naturally in most seaweed.  Nori may also be one of the few non-animal sources for B12.  Brazil nuts are a good source of selenium and you only need a few a day to meet RDA.  Some brands of nuts specifically say gluten free.  Unfortunately, there are issues with Brazil nut production and they're much harder to find this year. The more you can vary your diet the better.  One study said aim for at least 30 different foods in a week.  You might want to try kiwi fruit.  There were some studies that said eating kiwi improved mood.  It also has a covering which most people don't eat, so that should protect what's inside from contamination. I've limited my diet quite a bit over the years because of migraines, so I know how uncomfortable it can be finding safe foods.  However, I'm afraid limiting diets like that may actually be causing more harm than good.  It's something I'm trying to work on.  I keep trying to expand the number of foods I eat and my recipe repertoire.  I made a list of brands of foods that I've found that are gluten free so I have a guide when I'm shopping.
