Dare to be Royal!!

Did you want to wear a tiara, Tom? I can't help thinking that Emily is waiting anonymously in the background to take us to page 300.

Just to warn you, I will not be posting first on 300 so don't ask me any questions . . . I will plead the 5th.

tom Contributor

At first I'm like "how'd I miss this?", then I see it was the dreaded simultaneous posting! :o

Tom, did I read (a long ways back) that you are an engineer?

Me 'n' Choo-Choo Charlie!!

<shukka-shukka . . .. shukka-shukka . . .. >

I guess I can't really even say what I am NOW, but I WAS a Silicon Valley Elec Engr for ~ a dozen yrs. Hmmm one job offer is to be tha again so maybe I am.

I just want to make sure that I am not the Queen of page 300. I don't want to wear any stinkin' tiara. And being in charge of two kids is enough for me. I don't want to have to rule the likes of this lot! :angry::huh::lol::lol:

We can wash the tiara!!!

<is that a dig at our current [OOPS! Former!] queen's hygiene?>

See, I figger we got a King already, so I'm not even eligible for ascension to a TOP spot. It's gonna be you Janet.

Don't even try to 'superweasel' your way out of it.

tom Contributor

All hail the New QUEEN AMANDA!!!

(sheesh we were 3 or 4 posts away when I started my last reply. I wondered if someone was broadbanding their way into making me be on p300.)

And yes Janet, I was trying to ask a question or otherwise get a response LOL

It didn't start out that way but . . . OK, sure!

"Do you prefer your grapes peeled or unpeeled?"

Definitely unpeeled (seedless and red).

Hi Judy,

I get married next weekend on the 3rd. We are actually heading to Cape May on Thursday after the wedding.

Why thank you :)

I think Richard would also make a good jester. Maybe he could be the court artist/photographer.

I will need a king too

No no annnnnnnnnnnd .. . . .no.

I wonder in our motley crew is most likely to be able to juggle . .. .. ..hmmmmm that's a toughie.

I CAN, however, wiggle my ears, if it pleases the Queen to have lobes-in-motion on Her Majesty's Royal Saxophonist.

<uh oh! no promises . . .never tried to do both at the same time. maybe the wigglin' is only 'tween licks. (Take that any way u like :P )

tom Contributor
I get a yeti!!!! cool!!!

Just don't forget how sensitive they can be. Nor the ruckus he'll create if he feels slighted.

So PLEASE!! I implore you . .. . .when the dancing begins do NOT think about the fact you know the steps so much better than he. Whether a waltz or a tango, or some nondescript unworthy-of-a-name slow shuffle . .. . LET THE YETI LEAD!!!!!! :P

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I'll make you all proud of how I take care of my King Yeti lol!

tom Contributor

Haaaaaaaappy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuu

. . .. . .

. .. . .

Happy Birthday Emily!!!! :)

Ridgewalker Contributor
Sarah said she was knee-deep in sheets. (At the time, I thought she said sh!t and was cleaning up doggy-doo but now I know different).

Haha! No that was last week, and it was Ezra poo! <_<

I want to be in the court too! I can wiggle one ear- the right one. I can't do the left one though.

Happy Birthday Emily!!!

We went to an anniversary/Halloween party at my best friend's house tonight, and got home laaaate. I ran around in high-heeled boots all night and my feet are now saying, "Uh. And what were you thinking? You're going to pay now, for at least 24 hours."

Got home at about 1 am, and first carried in sleeping Ezra (up the steps) and put him to bed. Went back, got sleeping Lucas, carried him in, put him to bed. Went back, got leftover food, carried that in. Went back, told my sleeping husband I was NOT carrying his butt in. Came in, took the dog out. Put away said leftovers.

Now I happily have on jammies and soft socks, and I'm watching John Carpenter's The Fog. :D

I musta missed replying to this while off looking for those old pointy bell-enhanced slippers!

Tell me more!!

Work for anyone I may have heard of?

I spent a summer at Sperry right when it was acquired by Honeywell, working on TCAS, the Traffic Collision Avoidance System for comm'l airliners. (I kinda did squat, actually :lol: )

Uh-oh I should be asleep already. <8 hrs until my Pod-loaders arrive! <which was the sleepy emo?>

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
