It would fit on my entire hand. They're very religious so it definitely wouldn't go over well.

They likely wouldn't even recognise it as a condom - - you could pass it off as a nice, coloUrless balloon. .. . .... . ..um, unless it has a reservoir end.. . . . .. . ... :lol:

Phrequently driven over the Skookumchuck on my way to Seattle. Always makes me giggle at such a horrible name!

It is probably another word for "snow" in Inuit. .. . .. . ..

My son has the Jesus action figure 'with gliding motion' It's phabulous!!

OMG. . . .. . ....:lol:. . . . I thought this was simply a joke. .. .one can buy Jesus Christ action figures? I suppose Mattel's really got you with all of the accessories you feel forced to buy right along with him, like the robe, crown of thorns, snap-on crucifix. . .. . . ..... . ..I'll bet there is an expandable, fold-up creche. Is there a Mary Magdelene action figure? Gawd, you're looking at real bucks if you buy the big Last Supper table, and the accompanying Twelve Disciple action figures. . ... . . .. . this whole thing gets really expensive... :unsure:

See, told ya:

Each hard plastic Jesus Action Figure stands 5" tall with poseable arms to reach toward the heavens and wheels in his base for smooth gliding action

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Skookumchuck:

Skookum means "strong" or "powerful", and "chuck" means water, so skookumchuck means "rapids" or "whitewater" (literally, "strong water"). It can mean any rapids, but in coastal usage refers to the powerful tidal rapids at the mouths of most of the major coastal inlets.

Every town has a Crazy Cat Lady. She's the one who lives in a tiny house full of feral felines. This 5-1/4'' (13.3 cm) tall, hard vinyl Crazy Cat Lady Action Figure has a wild look in her eye and comes with six cats.

:lol:

This sounds much like the situation 'round here... . . . . ...ever since we've cut our Christmas card-receivers list, and now eliminated the list completely, the cards coming in are few and far between. This year, our mantle is thus far sporting four lovely cards: one from our kids' orthodontist (more a thank-you note for paying his rent for the past six years), the yearly card from the salesman who sold me my used car five years ago, wishing me and my family all the very best; a large, sporty card from the Girls' Hockey Association asking festively if I have more time to volunteer in the new year, ANNNNND a cute card from our veterinarian's office, signed by all the tecs (again, a 'thank you for contributing to our salaries with your multiple-animal household').

So personal and heartfelt, this time of year is. . . . . . . ..

There are several. Go on Amazon. There are figures with accessories and even a talking Jesus that spouts the scripture. Anything for money I suppose. I'm curious if Tony reacts to the condom. He just hasn't been into Christmas for a few years (other than money) so we hope it will give him a laff. BTW, Clark's snoring turned out to be a cold which I promptly caught. Making my famous Jewish Penicillin and feel so crappy I'm skipping my painting class (I also don't want to spread it to any of my classmates).

That reminds me of a story about my son Tony. We had three deaths in a 6 month period (both of our moms and Clark's brother). At one of the funerals Tony leaned over to Rob and said "Daddy, I really don't want to drink blood today." He had never had Holy Communion but he had been to so many funerals that he was afraid he had to drink it. He was also afraid of old people (hope he's not afraid of me now -LOL).

BTW, bit the bullet and called my current GI to cancel my second EGD and tell them I was transferring to another doctor. They just called and were very nice and said that as soon as I sign a release form they'll send my records. My appointment with the new GI is only a week after the procedure I cancelled (January 20). YAY!!!!!

I find this whole concept of openness about sex highly entertaining, coming from a repressed family myself. BE told me last night that his SIL asked him once at a family dinner if he and his previous-long-term-girlfriend had good sex. I just stared at him. "she ASKED you???" In my family we pretend that the whole silly business doesn't exist.

Here it is.

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?

      I only went on the multi vitamin AFTER a couple of year of high dose, targeted supplementation resolved most of my deficiencies.  I was on quite a cocktail of vitamins that was changed every 6 months as my deficiencies resolved.  Those that were determined to be genetic are still addressed with specific doses of those vitamins, minerals and amino acids. I have an update on my husband and his A Fib.  He ended up in the hospital in August 2025 when his A Fib would not convert.  He took the maximum dose of Flecainide allowed within a 24 hour period.  It was a nightmare experience!  They took him into the ER immediately.  They put in a line, drew blood, did an EKG and chest Xray all within minutes.  Never saw another human for 6 hours.  Never got any results, but obviously we could see he was still in A fib by watching the monitor.  They have the family sign up for text alerts at the ER desk.  So glad I did.  That is the only way we found out that he was being admitted.  About an hour after that text someone came to take him to his room on an observation floor.  We were there two hours before we saw another human being and believe it or not that was by zoom on the TV in the room.  It was admissions wanting to know his vaccine status and confirming his insurance, which we provided at the ER desk.  They said someone would be in and finally a nurse arrived.  He was told a hospitalist was in charge of his case.  Finally the NP for the hospitalist showed up and my husband literally blew his stack.  He got so angry and yelled at this poor woman, but it was exactly what he needed to convert himself to sinus rhythm while she was there.  They got an EKG machine and confirmed it.  She told him that they wanted to keep him overnight and would do an echo in the morning and they were concerned about a wound on his leg and wanted to do a doppler to make sure he did not have a DVT.  He agreed.  The echo showed everything fine, just as it was at his annual check up in June and there was no DVT.  A cardiologist finally showed up to discharge him and after reviewing his history said the A Fib was due to the Amoxicillan prescribed for his leg wound.  It both triggers A Fib and prevents the Flecainide from working.  His conversion coincided with the last dose of antibiotic getting out of his system.  So, make sure your PCP understands what antibiotics you can or cannot take if susceptible to A Fib.  This cardiologist (not his regular) wanted him on Metoprolol 25 mg and Pradaxa.  My husband told him that his cardiologist axed the idea of a beta blocker because his heart rate is already low.  Sure enough, it dropped to 42 on the Metoprolol and my husband felt horrible.  The pradaxa gave him a full body rash!  He went back to his cardiologist for follow up and his BP was fine and heart rate in the mid 50's.  He also axed the Pradaxa since my husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation.   Oh and I forgot to say the hospital bill was over $26,000.  Houston Methodist!

      The symptoms that led to my diagnosis were stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, body/nerve tingling and burning and chills. It went away after about four days but led me to a gastro who did an upper endo and found I had marsh 3b. I did the blood test for celiac and it came back negative.  I have gone gluten free. In week 1 I had a flare-up that was similar to my original symptoms. I got more careful/serious. Now at the end of week 2 I had another flare-up. These symptoms seem to get more intense. My questions:  1. How do I know if I have celiac and not something else? 2. Are these symptoms what others experience from gluten?  When I have a flare-up it’s completely debilitating. Can’t sleep, can’t eat, can’t move. Body just shakes. I have lost 10 pounds since going gluten free in the last two weeks.
