Sorry, we can't have the Boy Scouts and MJ in the same parade. :o

I just got off the phone with him, Michael Jackson says he'll stay in Bahrain, has some more skin-bleaching sessions and also said he was too afraid of the yeti (but in fact HAS been doing some hyperbaric treatments w/ sacred yeti scat that he dug up on Neverland).

:lol:

... and also said he was too afraid of the yeti...

But remember this is a YETI in Scout's clothes...:huh:

ah, sweet temptation...

Hey! Did some quick research. The Australian term for their mysterious hairy bipoedal hominid is not Yeti (that's Nepal), but Yowie. Much nicer...better for the parade. Jess, some new stanzas, please? :lol:

I think our parade needs The A-team to hand out Glow sticks too :)

Um . . . you're 46?!?! You HONESTLY do not look a day over 36. So is living with Dingos the true Fountain of Youth?

I accidentally glutened myself on Wednesday evening (with the stupidest mistake in the history of Celiac Disease) and I was finally able to get some sleep last night. Not sure if it was the gluten or my crazy blood sugar but I had some really weird dreams. But the general theme of these dreams was a very odd, rather perverse parade! So I just wanted to report that all of this silliness made it into my messed up dreams!

Thanks for all of the funniness. It does a body good. I can't believe I'm laughing within 48 hours of ingesting gluten.

Once the hellish first 24 hours were over I decided I was going to try and fight the glutening and just carry on but my brain and my tummy aren't on board with that <_< . So I'm heading back to bed. Have fun with all the funniness. Thanks for the much needed giggles.

"Who's the guy in the big fur coat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who's on top of the rainbow float?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who can tip the biggest boat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Hey! Who ate Chuck Heston's goat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

ok, got a little lame towards the end.

or all the way through,

but come on! How many poems about giant furry semimythical beasts can a girl come up with in one morning?

Maybe Jan Michael Vincent (the man with three first names) could do a fly-over in "Airwolf". I hear he's looking for work. (as are most of the stars from 80's tv favorites :huh: )

Can I drive David Hasselhoff's car KITT? I seem to remember him already assigned some other role in the parade.

Glad we can get your mind off the yuckiness--at least for a few minutes. Feel better, my friend :)

Sorry about the glutening.

And, no, I'm NOT caught up. I have two busy days and this thread takes off!

Yep--and I'll follow you in the Dukes of Hazzard car (the one with no working doors)--it'll be me and Chuck :wub:

He's leaving his big Dodge truck at home ;)

Nay, Nay, quite excellent, I say. (That actually sounds more like Dr. Seuss)

Plus, the goat had it coming.

Yes--Montgomery County.

Oh, and two thumbs up for School House Rock. One of my faves from kidhood. I just got the DVD for my kids a couple of months ago. My favorite was/is Open Original Shared Link

blueeyedmanda Community Regular
Yes--Montgomery County.

When they showed the table full of guns I almost died. What is wrong with people today. That place is not so far from Harrisburg. Maybe an hour.

I just hope it's the original version and not the re-make, please leave Jessica Simpson at home!

How's the packing going Patti?

I agree Susie Q does not look her age, no Susie Q hit 30-ish and just stopped. Susie Q defies time, and gravity. It's just something she does.

... a bit like Chuck Norris :P

I do vaguely remember that I once heard, through a friend of a friend, that the only thing that even comes close to sending a chill up the mighty Mr. Norris' spine is the thought of meeting the business end of the Iroquois Skull Crusher that hangs above Susie's mantle. Speak softly and carry BIG STICK! She defies time, gravity and any other laws of physics that she pleases! :o

:lol: SO not true. But, Alex, to answer your question, YES, the secret is living with dingos, AND lots of sunscreen. ;)

oh, and still having ACNE at 45 helps a lot :angry: (two months shy of 46)

Got carded until my late 30's, early 40's.....then gained over TWENTY-FIVE POUNDS removing gluten and, never get carded any more.

har-RUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

Hmmmm . . . do we know how old the photo is? :huh: I look ten years younger, too, when I use a photo from ten years ago. :lol:

Ahem, excuse me, picture taken in July of this year. :P A confession: objects in photo appear younger than in person. In real life, I look quite haggard today, and would NOT insert a photo from this week, should one be taken (like the elusive yeti, I am hard to capture on film).

bloody miserable headache and puffy eyes today, just what IS in Coca Cola? :unsure: somebody tell me, because I NEVER drink them, and had half of one at lunch yesterday.....is it the chemicals? feel and look like rubbish today. and now must head out to Cheesecake FActory for lunch......ugh. Wish to remain in seclusion today.

      @glucel, Yes, most doctors prefer to prescribe pharmaceuticals than delve into vitamins because they aren't educated about the health impact vitamins and minerals can make in medical school. Thiamine, especially Benfotiamine, has been shown to be protective to the kidneys.  Benfotiamine improves kidney function!  Especially in people on dialysis.   Thiamine and Benfotiamine are safe and nontoxic even in high doses!  PLEASE Read! Prevention of Incipient Diabetic Nephropathy by High-Dose Thiamine and Benfotiamine  https://diabetesjournals.org/diabetes/article-abstract/52/8/2110/13835/ Benfotiamine Protects against Peritoneal and Kidney Damage in Peritoneal Dialysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3083313/ Prevention of incipient diabetic nephropathy by high-dose thiamine and benfotiamine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12882930/ If more than half your plate is carbohydrates, you need more Thiamine!  High carbohydrate diets induce thiamine because as the carbohydrate load us increased, an increased amount of thiamine is needed to process them.  I have been taking high dose thiamine as thiamine hcl and Benfotiamine for over ten years.  I have not had any bad experiences with it.   I no longer have any symptoms that reflect type two diabetes.   Doctors can't profit from prescribing vitamins because they can't be patented.  They profit from pharmaceuticals and medical procedures necessitated by health conditions that could be remedied, or at least improved, with essential vitamins and minerals!   Don't fear thiamine!  Do discuss the benefits with your doctor.  Ask if you can take 300 mg Benfotiamine in his office under medical supervision if you're nervous.  Most people have improved health within a short period of time.  You've already seen improvement with low dose thiamine hcl.  Jump in with both feet!

      I found credible scientific evidence from The World Heath Organization, pertaining to nutrients in drinking-water. There are several sections within the paper regarding nutrient depleted water (aka RO water)  Below is a small sample from the PDF which is linked further below. The possible adverse consequences of low mineral content water consumption are discussed in the following categories: • Direct effects on the intestinal mucous membrane, metabolism and mineral homeostasis or other body functions. • Little or no intake of calcium and magnesium from low-mineral water. • Low intake of other essential elements and microelements. • Loss of calcium, magnesium and other essential elements in prepared food. • Possible increased dietary intake of toxic metals. I highly recommend downloading the PDF and reviewing it for yourself. https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9241593989

      Great info, thanks. Luckily I am taking thiamin hcl 100mg at lunch and the 25 mg in morning b complex is made up of hcl and cocarboxlase.  I have read many of your writings about thiamin and understand/believe that the body gets rid of the excess. One thing that a gluten-free diet has done for me is no microscopic blood in urine after a lifetime of it, at least so far, but in other aspects my kidneys not so good. My kidneys have never been completely healthy and as an old guy have only gotten worse. My brother is on dialysis so I am more than concerned about excessive thiamin affect on the kidneys. It would be great to check with a dr about this but most of the time they have no interest in anything but drugs. So yes I would love to load up on b1 but it was actually a big decision for me to add 100 mg at noon time a few months ago. Normally my so called bigger meal, or at least where meat is consumed is at mid day. I eat way too much bread and cereals at night and usually stay away from meat as I try to limit cholesterol, although I do sneak a hard boiled egg in there. Maybe a half a hamburger or something like that could help curb the appetite.

      Hi @Maureen armey Just one point re: PPIs.  Here in the UK the people I know with Barretts have had to take them long term, or H2 blockers instead, despite the fact they have side effects.   I feel that it is very important that you follow your consultant's advice re: this type of medication but if you do need to take them longterm, see if they can offer any advice on how to mitigate these potential side effects.   I hope you find the information contained via following the link below helpful. Do come back to us if you have any further questions. https://heartburncanceruk.org/blog/should-you-take-ppis-long-term-insights-from-a-gp-and-barretts-patient/ Cristiana

      For the past 3 years, I’ve bloated from most powders, e.g. gelatin, Bulk Supplements glutamine. I don’t eat processed food at all. I know now I’ve had SIBO for 3 years. I’ve been keto for 12 years, except 3 years ago I started eating more starch and fruit. Appears trehalose, a disaccharide of glucose, is used as a stabilizer in LOTS of food, and there are glowing articles about it being a safe low glycemic index sweetener.  But there’s evidence it adversely impacts the gut biome.   "...realistic trehalose consumption from natural sources could be estimated at < 0.3 g per person per day (USA)."  It’s commonly used in "baked goods, breakfast cereals, rice and pasta, processed vegetables, fruit (dried and juiced), milk products, meat and fish products, sweets, chewing gum, and ice cream...the FDA GRAS report for trehalose considers a potential mean consumption level of 34.43 g day...three epidemic strains of Clostridium difficile have evolved independent mechanisms to better metabolize this nutrient resource."  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6546318/&nbsp; "Trehalose binds water, prevents oxidation, and preserves the structure of food during freezing and heating. It also improves the taste while causing slightly milder blood glucose spikes. These properties made trehalose a common food additive in:     Dried and frozen food     Instant food (noodles, rice, soups)     Sugar coatings and fillings     Baked goods     Seafood Most manufacturers label trehalose under “added sugars” or “natural flavors.” People who don’t tolerate mushrooms probably lack trehalase." https://supplements.selfdecode.com/blog/trehalose-health-benefits/#Trehalose_Food_Sources Note that FDA allows food labels to exclude mention of any component that is <0.5%.  It’s called the averaging rule, and the component is not on the label.  A food can have very many components that are each <0.5%.  So reading the label is no assurance that you know what you’re consuming. https://www.allergy-insight.com/trehalose-intolerance/ "...trehalose intolerance is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme trehalase...can be genetic, or caused by severe gastroenteritis and other gut diseases." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18777247/ Characterization of alpha,alpha-trehalase released in the intestinal lumen by the probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii  "...trehalase deficiency is more common than is believed and that oral administration of S. boulardii could be beneficial in patients with digestive symptoms caused by trehalose intolerance."  I ferment fruit juice with Florastor to greatly increase the colony count.  It's easy and delicious.  I drink 1/2 cup with any trehalose source, and it helps.
