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.

We have a little novelty store in the Alphabet Dist. here that must have a direct line to this store. You can find all this stuff there! Many stores here do have the bacon bandaids :P

: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.

      Your story is a powerful and heartbreaking testament to the profound damage that can be caused by undiagnosed celiac disease and the profound pain of not being believed or supported by family. It is sadly a common narrative within the celiac community to have suffered for years, even decades, while autoimmune conditions stack up, all while being dismissed. To answer your core question: yes, living in a environment with significant, constant gluten exposure, especially from airborne flour in a home where milling and baking occurred, would have created a perpetual state of autoimmune activation for you, even beyond the direct ingestion. This chronic exposure is strongly linked to the development and exacerbation of the very autoimmune disorders you describe—Migraines, Meniere's, Hashimoto's, and more. Your body was under constant attack, and the lack of care and understanding from your family compound that trauma significantly. It is not your fault. Many in the community share similar stories of a cascade of illnesses finally explained by a celiac diagnosis, often coming too late to prevent irreversible damage. While I cannot speak to the legal aspects of your inheritance situation, your experience with the medical neglect and the lasting impact of your childhood environment is deeply valid and shared by others who understand this unique type of suffering. Thank you for having the courage to share your truth. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:

      It's incredibly tough to watch a young child grapple with the frustration and sense of deprivation that comes with a restrictive diet, and your empathy for her is the first and most important step. At seven, children are deeply focused on fairness, and her feelings are completely valid. To support her mental health, shift the narrative from "missing out" to "empowered choice." Instead of "you can't have that," use language like "we choose these safe foods so your tummy feels happy and strong." Involve her directly in her own care; let her be the "Gluten-Free Detective" at the grocery store, picking out exciting new treats, or make her the head chef in baking a special dessert that everyone gets to enjoy. When eating out, empower her by having her call the restaurant ahead to ask about safe options (with your help), making her feel in control rather than a passive victim. Acknowledge her feelings—"It's okay to feel sad that you can't have the roll, I sometimes feel that way too"—and then immediately pivot to a positive action, like unwrapping the special brownie you brought just for her. This combination of validation, involvement, and reframing turns a limitation into a shared family challenge where she feels supported, capable, and loved.

      I know that Shiloh Farms makes this product, but I don't think it is labeled gluten-free.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      It's strange to see two very different results in what appears to be a single blood test--one is positive and one is negative for a celiac disease test. Are these results separated by time? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
