Patti, Bev and Amanda (and any other board moderators that might be peeking in), at the next "staff" meeting with Scott, can one of you make a motion to have the green guy emoticon added? Has he ever mentioned it during a meeting? Is it in the meeting minutes? Do you guys have gluten free donuts at your meetings? Does he fly you all in? Is it all teleconferenced? Is it "offsite" at some great place like San Diego, well, not there, maybe Key West? Do you have a dress code for when you are online "moderating"? Like everyone wears a powdered blue shirt with their name embroidered on it? Do you get overtime? Double time on Sundays? a 401K? Do you have ergonomically correct desk chairs? Free coffee or do you have to chip in every time you take a cup? Do you get free samples from all the advertisers? Business casual or blue jeans? Who's most likely to get drunk at the Christmas/Holiday Party and dance on the table?

OK - just wondering what all is involved in being a moderator?

Given some more thought to the whle moderator question... perhaps the big cheese has slected our moderators witht he whole "keep your friends close, and your enemies closer" mentality...HE (capitalized to show respect) is really keeping a close eye on a select bunch of known table dancers and trampoline bouncers...it makes me feel better to think this is true...anybody see my hallucinogenic meds? :huh: My model glue? My whiteout? Something!Please! My cherry flavored highlighter !:wacko:

That statement REEKS of someone who is trying to divert attention away from herself. Hmmm . . . there must be some photos floating around.

THEY (capitalized to show distrust and contempt) don't call them "drugs"...I have heard that THEY take a daily SOMA supplement...just a rumoUr as far as i know :huh:

Ahhhh . . . only 50 more posts until I, too, can captionalate my avatars!!

Hmmmm . . . . .. .interesting . . .. ;)

Hi all,

I've been ~ a zero on the sillibility index for a while. Tried reading some awhile back but couldn't even crack a smile. :(

Wasn't worth trying again while it only reminds me that I should be LOL'g.

Starting to feel better now. Not quite sure why so much badness, but changing a buncha things and being almost all packed seems to have helped. Freakin' back killin' me all the time from packing. :angry:

Trying this "Moving POD" biz instead of a truck. It comes tomorrow & I start the drive Mon or Tues. Prob Tues. :unsure:

I think I'm taking a circuitous route thru Vegas to Reno to play H'ween w/ 2 little ones who've never previously carved a pumpkin w/out me.

THEN off to SJ!!!! :) :) :)

P.S.

GEORGE: Oh, Noooo, I'm so sorry. It's the MOOPS. The correct answer is, The MOOPS.

Richard! I've heard it too :unsure: (Sssch!)

...but have you heard???......Bev hasn't really got a Pneumatic chest...sorry...Pneumonia...but overdone the SOMA (The flashbacks are giving her some trouble)

HARUMPH!!! It's just not fair!!!!!!!!

I NEEDS ME SOME SOMA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol::lol:

I totally understand. It's like being sober when everyone else around you is drunk. Next time, toss a few back before you start reading. We'll all be a lot funnier then.

P.S.

GEORGE: Oh, Noooo, I'm so sorry. It's the MOOPS. The correct answer is, The MOOPS.

My first thought: Do we have any regulars on this thread named George? Maybe before I started? . . . but I figured it out!!

Sorry about your lack of sillibility as of late. I'm also right in the middle (literally--the movers were here and did about 75% today--will be back in the AM) of a move myself. I've been escaping here and getting lost in the silliness.

Hope it all goes smoothly with the POD--yes, go through Reno and have some time with the little ones. It'll do you a world of good ;)

:D Moops :D

Just saw the one where Jerry and George meet Elaine's dad--hilarious :lol:

Hey! I wish to quell this heinous rumour circulating: Parties do not find me on tables...anymore...(yes, I was young and needed the money)..now I'm likely under them. :o:lol:

Hallucinogenics and moderators. Now that would be quite a combination. Imagine what kind of posts we'd be getting to read. No substitutions, for sure. Ah...but Scott likely has mandatory urine samples collected. Was this the...problem, Richard? :lol:

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
