So, it looks to me like someone is letting their left brain do all the hard work like m+-*$, while their right brain gets to go out and have all the fun.

Just wanted to check with our queen if that incurs any sort of tax?

Oh, no, wait - who could calculate the tax then?

And for any psilly concerned . . . no taxes will be incurred for posting, laughing, whining/wining, etc . . . at least during my reign.

All you goofballs and your spelling reminded me of this....

Ghoti

Pronounce the GH like it is in tough (f sound)

Pronounce the O like it is in women (i sound)

Pronounce the TI like it is in nation (sh sound)

And that is why phonics never worked for me! :D

Your Left Brain score of zero is showing . . . :lol: . . . 78 more pages to go and if you want to get persnickety about it, 77 pages since we just flipped a page.

Oh, gawd.. . . ..don't mess wif Kween Jyaghnutt when it comes to mathS..... :unsure:

Absolutely, yes... . ...inciting ANY mathematical equations, positing ANY formulas -- algebriac or other --, even mention of percentages.....results in a Math Tax charge.

NO exemptions!

:lol:

Whoa! I've always enjoyed Los Matematicos, what kind? Like Bachelor's & Master's?

Operation Onesie Twosie was a special time wasn't it?

Ascension, Vacation & the "let'em eat cake-ization" of virtual abdication thru willfully choosing a netless chasmistic abyss prior to even first sunset of the ascendancy. It was an OUTRAGE!

(Then again, most of should also choose a Big Sur wkend over staying home)

My favorite aide memoir for spelling is for silent P.

Silent P, like in swimming pool.

Seemed particularly appropriate for the psillies :)

I have way to much schooling, tons and tons of classes that count to none of my degrees that I took for fun. Creative Writing, Music, Psychology, Philosophy, Physics, Astronomy, and so on. I just like learning stuff! :D

"Like in swimming pool"!!

I'm loving this partly because IT SHOULD'VE ALREADY COME UP over the 6 or whatever yrs this thread's been going! (Or did I miss it?)

Anyway, hat-tip to MW ....wish I'd thought of that. ;)

The 1st sentence reminded me of some fun at work long ago. Summer job at Honeywell working on TCAS, their airliner Traffic Collision Avoidance System, & in making sure we had some alphanumeric code right, from a bit of a distance.

Him: so .. .."N?"

Me: no, M.

Him: N?

Me: M!

Him: as in . .. Night?

Me: Might? What?

Him: as in Numb?

Me: Mum? Dammit (both laughing already)

Him: dammit YOU choose the word!

Me: okay, M as in Mnemonic

When I was in grade school, they always used to say "if you do not know how to spell a word look it up in the dictionary" and I was always like, "and how the freak you expect me to look it up if I can not spell it???" :blink:

I was not a well loved student. :huh:

Mr Mindwarp and I are both dyslexic, and anytime we are asked 'how do you spell......' ,we always say 'well, I spell it like this, but that doesn't mean anyone else does'... :(;):)

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
