I have always felt that I need to be a little stoned to really appreciate most of Picasso's big works, particularly the cubism. . . .. ... .but some of his early figure drawings are simply beautiful, and easily accessible to my wee, please-keep-it-real brain. . . . . ....

After a glutening, I often feel like this... . .

Um, except I'm not smiling . . . . ... . . ..... :rolleyes:

Did you ever pie him?

Ha! yes - - for his surprise 60th birthday party.... .. . .gads.... . ..twenty-six years ago. . . . . ...I was a VERY young teen :rolleyes:, and right after Dad blew out the candles on his humungous cake I suddenly hoisted it up and planted it in his face.. . .and actually his chest, it was that big. :lol:

No glasses, that time. . . . .. B)

Everbody must send Queen Rachelle a supply of vodka to get her through the next 98 pages. It may well preserve her.

Uh, oh...... I shall try to be good..... I'll stay away when we get close to turning over again B)

Wait a minute, isn't the 2nd term wear they start gettin grouchy and lopping off heds?

Yes. Especially when this qween is working full time and trying to start a new business!!

Well, methinks we have a newly rejuvenated, gentler, kinder Monarch now, what with the tank floating.. . . . .Rah-shyellle, you should check into whether or not you could claim the cost of the floating tank sessions as a business expense, or try to run it through the Monarchical Health Insurance Program...

:rolleyes:

I think I shall need to float daily if that's gonna happen!

Hub has decided that the gathering for his employees/ co- workers should just be a quick pop by after work for a drink during the week. Now I'm afraid I will have too much food!

Well, since I'm talking to myself, I'll go make that crab some friends.

K's got crabs?! :unsure::lol:

After all the planning we've all done, he's changing it up?? Does he KNOW the hard work we've put into this party?! <_<

It's that Stats homework! It's rattled your brains so much you didn't notice the earthquick ( my niece used to call them that).

I gotta settle in for the day to finish my homework. I've decided this requires pretzels and a gluten-free cake, so I'd best run to the store now before I get too distracted with numbers. :)

Bah humbug - 4.1 barely qualifies as a registerable aftershock in these parts :P We spared my sister (delicate little soul from Auckland :rolleyes: ) from any of the horrors, and had a good old 4.9 rock 'n roll after she left. You start missing 'em when they don't come. :blink:

I think I'll make another cup of coffee. I feel tired and very un-funny. Anyone know a good joke? Did like the pies in Em's Dad's face, may have to watch again. :o

Try going into your settings and un-checking DST.

Sorry Patti but that's a boring solution. What if it was a time warp? or a Time machine? Or Carla is in some time/space continum thingy? That would be more interesting.

Kansas City is going to the animals.

A meerkat that was stolen from the zoo, turned up outside a pet store.

This weekend a 3 foot long alligator was found sitting in the grass by a house.

So to re-cap in the last few weeks: Chimp, pigs, meerkat, alligator and I think some sheep have been running amok in the city.

What animal will be next?

Any signs of an arc being built somewhere.....

No ark or arc but that's a good thought.

OK, do we need to return to songs that get stuck in our heads or jingles? We are NOT boring!!! Just burnt out. Perhaps we all need to have a glass of wine at the same time and that will bring back our pfunnies (and yes I know I overdid the wine the night before the funeral).

Anyone here follow Rachel Maddow? Evidently there's someone on the internet who has decided that she is a lesbian vampire (yes she is a lesbian but I don' personally care). So she has two moles on her neck that appear to be where a vampire bites. Now I don't think it's pfunny (other than how ignorant the man on the clip is), but it's not boring. Some of these are repetitive. Ii think that the first two are different. I find the man accusing her of being a vampire to be both pfunny and scary but not boring.

      We have a category of articles on this topic if you really want to dive into it: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.

      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.

      Welcome to the forum, @Dana0207! Another diagnostic approach would be to get biopsied for dermatitis herpetiformis which would not require an extensive exposure to gluten. But it would need to be done during an active outbreak of the rash. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it would be a definitive diagnosis. It might be tricky, however, to time the dermatology appointment with the gluten exposure and outbreak.
