All Pilots have to have recurrent check rides annually, as well as the plane must have an annual inspection. Professional Pilots, twice a year.

Karen, ask how many hours the pilot has in that particular plane, as well as other planes. Check the weather. If the temperature is in the 90's and the plane is heavy with overweight people. Sit it out. An over weighted (illegal) plane can effect it's performance greatly.

It sound like you're familiar with the Pilot. That's a good assessment there! Doctors and Lawyers have the highest mortality rate in airplanes, due to the fact that they have the ability to buy more plane than their ability. All airplanes bite fools.

If you have weighed some of these factors and feel comfortable, tell him to enjoy his trip. :D And remember, the Pilot's ass is in that airplane too! B)

Thanks, Lisa! The pilot is a doctor! It will only be the 2 of them and 2 Weed Whackers (hand held string trimmers). They are going to clear an area where he has his sail boat, so the kids can camp. This might not happen as they are now calling for storms Sunday.

As the mom of 2 men - Yup! Since about the age of 9, "Let me lift that, carry that, etc" They love to show how strong they are.

Actually string trimmers are used alot around here to cut down the pot that grows wild.

Yup. I didn't feel like mentioning that I was the one who took the flat off, tossed it into the truck (without getting dirty) and put the spare on in the first place. There's a distinct difference between 'can' and 'want to'.

No. It grows in ditches and along fences. I understand it isn't a high quality version. It looks pretty tho.

My post disappeared! I guess I didn't push the right button or my computer is deleting my boring posts.

The guys decided to drive down instead of fly because we are having pop up storms. Will take 2 hours to drive vs. 1/2 hour to fly.

He looks good! I tried the "waiting a respectable time" before getting a new dog and it was the saddest 3 months ever. Couldn't wait any longer as M was having real problems without a dog. Had his first grade friends telling me he was always sad about Cali. This last time I waited 2 weeks, because it was the holidays, then starting looking for Cooper.

He's perfect! I say go for it! After all the effort you put into Charles, you need one that will require less.

Carpe diem. If it feels right to you, take the opportunity. Charles brought a lot of unfortunate baggage with him--this little guy has none.

I'm Back!!!! . . . and hopefully staying put for a while!!

I have caught up on the thread and of course can't remember what all I had to say, but here is some of it . . .

Glad yer back home Patti!!

Holy Crap Leesuh!!! Enough with the motorcycle accidents!!! Hope you heal quickly.

Em, tis a cute pooch . . . and he needs a home!!

Smackl's anesthesiologist for his tonsilectomy was named Dr. Pain (actually not sure if that is the spelling, but that's the pronunciation). My eye doc (20 years ago) was Dr. Glassman. My Dentist should have been a dermatologist . . . his name was Dr. Flesch.

Glad Em and Will and Lisa and Chris got to meet up in Chicago . . . sorry I had to miss it. I DID get to meet LisaB and her daughter. :D She generously treated me to lunch and threw in some fresh produce to take back to the beach house. Hubby had my camera but Lisa's daughter took a pic for us . . . I'll post when I get it.

Now . . . onto new bidness . . . no one said hello to "sa" . . . (is this sa's first post on the silly thread or did I miss one?) . . . anyways, welcome Sa and you need to give us a first name or nickname or sumptin cuz I can't just keep calling you Sa . . . perhaps I'll call you Thirty-Seven.

I live in Greencastle...trust me, there is nothing green around here at the moment, nor do I live in a castle. laugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

If you worked your muscles really hard,and they are sore, they are holding water (swollen, just like anything else that hurts). When they heal (2-3 days) they'll shrink down.

I believe this is what has happened to me!!!! Sitting out on the beach, I must have worked my muscles too hard and now they are holding strawberry daquaris pina coladas screwdrivers water. Yeah, that must be it . . . don't know any other reason why I would have gained 5 pounds . . . oh, I did finish off the chex mix :ph34r:

It's that Chex mix! It seems healthy and low calorie & it is. But... Who can eat 1 serving? You must eat the whole bowl or in my case the pan as it comes out of the oven!

Welcome back, Jyaghnutt! Glad there was another mini-psummit happening elsewhere. I, as well, gained 5 lbs. or thereabouts whilst away... . .how does that happen? Alcohol just should not count, calorically. I believe that this is my first Official Edict:

No new weight shall be garnered by the citizens of Psillyville from the consumption of any and all alcoholic libation.

:rolleyes:

Our angel is back in Joisey!! :)

Leeeesargh! Great news on the liability. A load off your mind, to be sure. And you`re getting cleaned up and dressed whilst trussed up like I saw you? Heavens. .. .. ... ..Don't overdo it,. girl!

I must say, that wide elastic support belt thang you are wearing is very slimming and flattering... . . . . Recovery Chic! ;)

Well, that gorgeous wee pup was sold to another family that got to 'im before I could. :( Ah, well.. .. . . .I know that I am ready to search, now.

      Am I celiac or not?

      By trents · Posted

      I think giving attention to the main sources of exposure such as direct consumption of gluten and gross cross contamination with reasonable attention to handwashing and thorough counter top cleaning and dishwashing should cover cross contamination issues. The biggest precautions would be eating in restaurants and at other's homes. Don't get paranoia over it and don't make trouble where there is none. As far a what you communicate with your physicians, just tell them what you know. Strongly positive antibody tests, negative biopsy, positive symptoms when consuming gluten with clearing of symptoms when gluten free.

      Am I celiac or not?

      By trents · Posted

      Occasionally we do see anomalies where celiac antibody tests are positive but biopsies are negative, and even visa versa. Sometimes, damage to the small bowel lining is patchy and unless numerous samples are taken from various areas, the damage can be missed. So, there's that issue as well. I think in your situation, the tell-tale indicator is the difference in symptoms between when you were off gluten and when you were consuming it.

      Am I celiac or not?

      By somethinglikeolivia · Posted

      Okay, that makes sense - so based off of the 90% odds that it is positive, it’s worth switching to fully gluten-free? How strict do I need to be with cross-contamination, handling, etc. Is it something that can go by feel, for instance if I feel okay making my family sandwiches and handling the bread as opposed to eating it, or is it something that is causing silent damage even if I feel fine? Also, do I make it clear to my rheumatologist and other medical providers that I am celiac? Or will they veto that due to negative endoscopy? Thanks again for the help!

      If you look at the article that I shared you will notice that "The test is estimated to have a sensitivity of approximately 90%, which means that it correctly identifies 90% of people with celiac disease. It also has a high specificity of around 95%, which means that it correctly identifies 95% of people who do not have celiac disease," so your results indicate that you very likely have celiac disease, especially if you also have symptoms while eating gluten that go away when you stop eating it (although many celiacs don't have obvious symptoms).
