I can't tell you where I met him yet, but it was last summer......and you guys will die.

....desparately trying to think back to last summer..... :huh: Don't keep us hanging too long on this one..... :P

My grandma used to call her umbrella this...but she said BUMBERSHOOT. We'll have to confer with Nikki, as I vaguely remember it being an English expression.....

Yep--you all are right on the spelling--I just wrote what I remembered her saying. ;)

...omG the sudden panic when realizing the tub had been 'filling' for 20-30min!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily the bathroom floor is a bit concave. Maybe 70% of the floor had an inch to inch & a half of water.

Coincidence...I think not :)

So......I think they've gone from thinking I'm a lesbian now (Gail and Jenn have sleepovers here to get out of their various oppressive housing states) to just a plain old SLUT :blink::lol:

Ha--way to keep 'em guessing :lol:

Well we just got back from the Hospital and she is sooo cute! Lydia that is. She has a head full of dark brown hair. I love her.

She sounds adorable! :D

I JUST this very second.........after ALL THIS TIME...........just this VERY millisecond looked at Janet's user name - which I've always pronounced and seen as "Darn two-ten."

and JUST this minute........I realized that it's "darn tootin" and I am the biggest loser lame-brain that there is.

Not the biggest loser--I never got it till now either :ph34r:

Gah!!! :lol: there's no K in that word!!!! I must speak up lest all of Sillyville adopts it erroneously! (You already got Julie!)

The site has Skijoring, but I've heard of it as both Skijourning & Skijorning before.

Tom, do you not realized that the mispelled words, or typos, make the phunniest of words in the Vortex, crikeys the OMG thread has an entire dictionary of made up words.

I like Skijorking much better, that extra "k" gives it a little extra something. :D

Julie- I've been thinking this for awhile- I think we're related :P:D I love being an auntie too!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My sister and BIL and FIL all refer to me as Auntie Mame....they were all over Sunday for Kurt';s birthday and somehow I went from sitting on the couch with the adults to upstairs judging the booty shaking competition on my bed with four kids. (ROLL EYES) (ROLL EYES)

Do they call you Auntie Bev too? I'm Auntie Julie :D

I think we are related, must be our childhood enthusiasm.......er immaturity?? :huh:

A friend of mine called me the kid whisperer, because they just flock to me. I guess I speak their language and apparently so do you Auntie Mame :lol::lol::lol:

I have nothing to say, I just wanted to be # 10,000 to reply to this topic!! :D:lol::D:P

SO glad you jumped in misdiagnosed, you missed it by that much!!

Well we just got back from the Hospital and she is sooo cute! Lydia that is. She has a head full of dark brown hair. I love her.

CUTE!!!!!

Is this your first niece/nephew Amanda?

I JUST this very second.........after ALL THIS TIME...........just this VERY millisecond looked at Janet's user name - which I've always pronounced and seen as "Darn two-ten."

and JUST this minute........I realized that it's "darn tootin" and I am the biggest loser lame-brain that there is.

This fact escaped me too, I hadn't picked up on that until you brought it up :ph34r:

Janet, such a clever girl :lol:

Hmmm, this throws a little curve in trying to figure out your last name.....you said it was a play on your last name......

Darn Tootin?

Darn Right?

You are correct sir?

Hell Yeah?

Tom's bath flood coinciding with the 2000 post???........yes, it's only after the event you piece it all together......

2,000 posts....These things happen.

PEOPLE!!!!!! The rollover of the MSD (most significant digit) (or for the math-impaired, the two) can and will happen NUMerous times.

The matched 1999 is a singu-frrrrreakin-larity!!!!!!

(I'm afraid that'll be TRULY understood only by Janet, Jess & and mathletic kibbitzers)

The flood was yesterday, on 1999.

Today's 2000 has been uneventful thus far.

Well ok, I did almost get a drop of yolk on my fav sweater an hour ago.

I sh*t myself when I farted and I\'m worried it will eat through the chair!

*snort*

:lol:

I'm glad it wasn't old hat to y'all.

When I read through it I had tears not halfway thru & and it just builds & builds.

Still, the I need to wipe my ass w/ a snowcone is my fav sentence, but the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Tom! the fluids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :blink: dear gawd, man, drink more of the phaerie! gitcher paints out! cut off your ear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now why didn't I think of that??

Commencing a small tipple.

'Skijorking' sounds....vaguely....naughty, or somefin'.... :blink:

Oh! Misdiagnosed.....ya missed it by ONE! But you can still stick around. I mean, you don't simply lurk around on threads, just waiting for big numbers to come up, now...do you? :huh::lol: Have you heard of the Yukon Quest? How do you feel about Susie finding new love? Do Tootsie Rolls ever get lodged up your nose?

Well, without restarting the debate about when the third millennium began, the claim was to the be 10,000th reply, not the 10,000th post. The second post is the first reply, and so forth.

And to the dogs I go.

Mackey left Braeburn just 19 minutes ahead of Anderson. Both had the obligatory eight hours of rest there. One hundred miles to go for them. Third place is up for grabs. Brent Sass blew through Carmacks without resting. Michelle and David Dalton left about four hours later, five minutes apart, after resting.

Go, Michelle!!

Actually my second niece. My own sister gave birth to a baby girl last April. In June, John's sister announced she was pregnant too. Although, I hope by saying this no one judges me....both John and I were both a little upset by both of the births....neither is married or has their life together both young...John and I are married and trying and having difficulties along the way.....We were both very happy on the days of arrival for both babies but the first few weeks after the annoucement it was rough for us....please dont judge me...

Not I, for sure. Judge not, that Ye be not judged.

I hope that you and John are the next in your extended families to have an announcement to make.

Mygawd......you guys are really ON today......just had SEVERAL snorting guffaws over the last two pages.....good thing I wasn't sipping absinthe as it woulda gone through my nose and I do not think that would feel right.......

TOM - - your av :lol: :lol: :lol: TELL ME that was a pose......he did NOT pass out near the toilet.......good gawd.............

....desparately trying to think back to last summer..... Don't keep us hanging too long on this one.....

:unsure: I am a little askeert.......was never goign to mention a boy again to not just my sillies, but to my Real Life Peeps until it was a.......... "done deal" pretty much. But I am goign to burst........and of course, all my peeps wanted to know where I was on this three-day weekend..............

we must all PRAY for continued blessings from above. This one's a KEEPER, there is no question in my mind. He was actually - - if I may be so bold in saying this - CUSTOM-MADE for me by God.

But I'm even MORE askeert that he just bought a motorcycle. :( I am terrified of them, and now am filled with worry when he drives it......we MUST say collective silly prayers and ask that it be........stolen? flooded out w/ someone's numerically-significant post and washed away? or......that he just gets a huge and compelling urge to sell it (he says he'll use it for the summer and be done). This is too much worry for Dingy....... :huh:

OMG - truer words could not be spoken than Julie's above. Crikey, skiJorking IS phunnier, and therefore we will keep it, maintaining the custom of bastardizing words as phreely and phrequently as possible. Of course. And OMG - the thread - - we DID have a dictionary, and jobs, and many many things - - Andrea had to keep reprinting our lists............ gahhhhhh!!!!! :lol:

Oh my, all of this activity when I'm temporarily down for the count. So much has happened while I was sleeping. Very lovely and exciting Susie. If anyone deserves this happy development, you do. We are all cheering you on! :D

We were both very happy on the days of arrival for both babies but the first few weeks after the annoucement it was rough for us....please dont judge me...

I think your reaction is very natural and completely understandable. I believe I would have the exact same feelings if I were in your position. I sincerely hope that you two are next! What a lucky baby that will be to have the two of you.

I think I may have pink eye. It's all goopy and running and red. I am a basket of bacteria! Good thing Ryan has a superhuman immune system. In the last year I've been coughing, sneezing, puking, excessively pooping ( :ph34r: ) in vicinity and nary an illness on his part. All my immune system does is attack my intestine and pancreas - I'm jealous :P ! Lets hope any kids we have inherit his smart immune system and not my confused one.

I showed Ryan the Yukon Quest website and he's gotten very into it as well. He's been given me updates and reminiscing about his childhood trip to the Yukon.

Hi Alex! Hi Laura! hi Judy!

This reminds me of an actual true story . . . I guy that I worked with was living with his girlfriend. She apparently made some screaming hot chili. I don't know if he loved it that way or was afraid of hurting her feelings . . . so he apparently ate a lot of it. Later that night, he sat on the toilet with his insides screaming for mercy. Apparently he passed out from the pain, fell off of the toilet, his private parts were caught on the seat as he fell . . . and lacerated his manliness. He had to go to the emergency room for stitches.

If this is true...ow ow ow :(

I have nothing to say, I just wanted to be # 10,000 to reply to this topic!! :D:lol::D:P

(almost) NICELY done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...Hey! What's fluttering through Stepford's li'l mind at this point?...."Heavens...look at what debauchery is going on over there now....No more pop-ins from me, guaranteed...and no more dog-sitting at THAT slutty thing's place!" :o:lol:

That's because she found this video of Open Original Shared LinkMOO HOO AH HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

. . . you're a SLUT EXTRAODINAIRE!!!

But NOT, I repeat NOT, a skank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Skijorking much better, that extra "k" gives it a little extra something. :D

Do they call you Auntie Bev too? I'm Auntie Julie :D

I think we are related, must be our childhood enthusiasm.......er immaturity?? :huh:

Hell Yeah?

Me too...I like pronouncing it SKI-YORKING which I suppose gives the image of a bunch of yorkies skiing :lol: :lol:

My niece just started school this year and yesterday she insisted on calling me Miss Auntie Bev :lol:

Immaturity-YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everytime I see Janet, I want to yell "Damn it Janet, I love you!" What is that from? It's driving me CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH!!! Btw .. .new av is roomie on absinthe night :lol:

No......no weigh :P

What's to judge, Amanda? It's only human to have those feelings :)

Absolutely!

Go MICHELLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I am also figuring this out.  So how about emailing me at swalesdiana@gmail.com and lets figure this out together
    • Wheatwacked
      In 70-year-olds, DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) levels are significantly lower than in young adults, typically around 20% of youthful levels, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) | (.gov). This decline is a natural part of aging, with DHEA production decreasing from its peak in the third decade of life. While some studies suggest potential benefits of DHEA replacement in older adults, particularly in women, results are not consistently positive across all studies.

      Welcome @bold-95.   That's a tough situation.   Understanding DHEA Deficiency in Menopausal Women A major cause of hypothyroid is iodine deficiency.  In the 60's bread had 90 mcg, milk 100 mcg per cup and we used iodized table salt.  A sandwich and glass of milk supplied 300 mcg,  Now in the US bread does not use iodine as dough condition, milk has a bad name and table salt is avoided.  Net reduction from 1970 to 1984 of 50% of iodine intake.   Urinary iodine levels (mg/dL) in the United States, 6-74 years of age NHANES I, 1971-74 Median 32.00 2NHANES III, 1988-91 Median 14.5 NHANES 2000 Median 16.1 There has been a trend for increased prescribing of levothyroxine (LT4) in the United States.  LT4 was the tenth and seventh most commonly prescribed drug based on the number of prescriptions in 2005 and 2006, respectively. From 2008 to 2011 the number of LT4 prescriptions rose from 99 million to 105 million, with LT4 being the second most prescribed medication.1 From 2012 to 2016 the number of annual LT4 prescriptions increased steadily from 112 million to 123 million, with LT4 being the most prescribed medication.2,3 During 2017 and 2018 LT4 was the third most prescribed medication, with 98 million Levothyroxine prescriptions trends may indicate a downtrend in prescribing. DHEA and hypothyroidism are linked, with some evidence suggesting that low DHEA levels may be associated with hypothyroidism.

      For minor aches and pains, my go to is Original Alka-Seltzer.  Aspirin and bicarbonate.  It is dissoved in water before you swallow it so no tablets to aggravate the stomach wall.  The bicarbonate buffers the stomach acid for upset stomach. Willow bark contains a chemical called salicin, which is similar to aspirin. It has pain and fever reducing effects in the body. The last time I took Advil for serious pain it spiked my BP to 190. Some blood pressure medications have been linked to rib pain or musculoskeletal pain as a side effect.  I had to stop Atnenolol because it had me bent over like a 90 year old with a walker.  Another med prescribe by my doctor left my knees unstable.  Currently, Losartan has weakened my back and thighs.  Can't walk to my mailbox at the street and back without having to rest my legs.  Upper body is however increasing muscle mass.  No one believes me though; think I'm malingering.  Those blood pressure meds also had no effect on my BP, but doctor wants me to continue on (man up, its good for you, with the Losartan + clonidine.  What has been working is Clonidine.  It has lowered my BP. but it is considered third tier BP med.  No side effects and it lowers my BP from 160+ to between 115 and 139.

      @bold-95, welcome to the forum. Rib pain can be caused by Chondritis, an inflammation of the cartilage in the ribcage or breastbone.  Vitamin D deficiency causes this condition and Osteopenia. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small intestine, making absorption of nutrients like vitamins difficult.  Nutritional deficiencies result.  Diseases can be caused by not having enough of certain vitamins and minerals. Vitamins are chemical compounds that our bodies cannot make, so we must get them from food or supplements.  Vitamins are crucial to our bodies functioning properly.  Eating a nutritionally dense diet is important, but to correct nutritional deficiencies, supplemental vitamins are needed.   Over the counter pain relievers like NSAIDs and PPIs can cause additional inflammation and damage to the small intestine.  OTC pain relievers worked for me but they hurt my digestive system worse.  Yes, Cobalamine Vitamin B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 have an analgesic effect when taken together.   I'm leaving links below so you can see for yourself.   Analgesic and analgesia-potentiating action of B vitamins.     https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12799982/#:~:text=Disregarding pain resulting from vitamin,three are given in combination.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/   B Vitamins in the nervous system: Current knowledge of the biochemical modes of action and synergies of thiamine, pyridoxine, and cobalamin https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31490017/   Role of B vitamins, thiamine, pyridoxine, and cyanocobalamin in back pain and other musculoskeletal conditions: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33865694/   The Combination of Neurotropic Vitamins B1, B6, and B12 Enhances Neural Cell Maturation and Connectivity Superior to Single B Vitamins https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11987730/
