GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! :wacko: ( or "wackl" to some) I canNOT KEEP UP!!!!!!

Now, Ptaum... :rolleyes: No mathlete, here, but I do realize that when I write post #6445, it will be a one-time match, and therefore rather special.

So very sorry, miss grammar poohbah, but there's a beautiful simple elegance (actual math term) to singularities in theoretical physics and advanced math which simply cannot be appreciated by all. (oh sh!t I'm gittin' all uppity)

...I've got April 26th circled, with "2000...take cover"....scrawled in red.

:lol:

Sounds like one of the titles on those videos I used to find all those years ago, hidden under my big brother's bed....

Wahhhhhhhh :( Em's making me feel old. Make 'er STOP!

VCRs didn't exist when I was that age. :(

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.......

Oh good so it's not just me!!! I'm laughing so much I wondered if it was the absinthe!

Just a jigger, mind you, and I've gone back to coffee now. (Mmmmmmmm wah-HOCK-in!!!!)

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

I KNOW you know the answer to this.

And I KNOW you know I KNOW you knew when you wrote it. <whaaaaaaat??>

(It must be the absinthe now .. .."know" looks like "ka-now")

Roomie started inviting the GrOeen Phaerie into our lives well before sundown that day. I waited.

At some point I noticed I hadn't seen him in an hour or so. (Yeah :lol: .. ..took a while)

This was hrs before the pic. Found him sitting on a lid-down toilet then, verrrrrrrry groggily concious. <holy moly I can't spell at all suddenly . .is that right?>

Maybe an hour later he's still not out so I brought him a big glass o' icewater. <he'd do the same for me> And he's still atop the lid-down toilet.

aNOTHer hr or so later I'm compelled to do a 'welfare check'. THAT's when the pic was taken.

Did the show'n'tell the next day and he laughed and said he'd wondered how/when he got up for the water. :lol:

. .. . . 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.

Yes you may be that bold. :)

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?

No need to pretend to be subtle, darlin'. PM me where it'll be Fri afternoon.

<nudge-nudge wink-wink saynomore-saynomore>

OMG - truer words could not be spoken than Julie's above. Crikey, skiJorking IS phunnier, and therefore we will keep it,

Oh you silly dingo it's not the J that's in question!! :lol::P

TOM!!!!!! the FLUIDS don't have to happen EXACTLY on the day of the zero number posts...they happen AROUND that time....day before, day after, or day of. Pleez. everyone knows this. :lol:

Oops I knew this.

But I thought the prior fluidosities (fluidations?) were all POST-post :lol:

(It does make sense I swear)

. .. . NOT the hellish math talk.... :blink:

That one is known as the fencepost problem.

HEYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

Tour of California blows thru town tomorrow. They're saying it's already second biggest, after Tour de France, and it's only in its 3rd year? Is this possible?

Do we KNOW anybody in the race??

I'll probably hafta go have a look-see since they'll be only 3 or buildings over. :blink:

P.S. Don't fret Amanda, you'll be knocked-up w/ twins by summer. ;)

I do recall a plethora of "Dammit Janet"s in Rocky Horror, but the "I love you" makes it inconclusive for me.

[Edit: oops I'll go w/ Janet's certainty on this one]

:) twins run in my family, and when I donated my eggs I actually produced a few double yoked eggs.

nikki-uk Enthusiast

I think Tom really should go to bed now ..(insomnia?)

You don't think Kitty Will could pull you? Maybe you should get another cat. I bet two of them could do it.

I do actually have another cat....but I never speak of her as .....well.... :unsure: ....she is a sociopath

I asked her to help Will pull me at skijorKing......she said ''Pull yourself Bit#h!!!!!!!''

Oh MY GAWD! Brilliant! I have a 20 pound tabby I could lend you (actually I really do!)

Can I ? :D

Oh don't sell yourself short, Susie!!! If you're sleeping with both men and women, you're not just a plain old slut . . . you're a SLUT EXTRAODINAIRE!!!

:lol::lol::lol: .........although I love Tom's idea of telling Stepford it was her brother who's been staying!!!!!! :o:lol::lol:

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

Janet, such a clever girl :lol:

IKNOW!!!!!! A bloody genius!!!!!!!...........Another eeedjit who didn't see the Darn tootin' ,<smacks forhead> :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?

:lol::lol: Most definitely

So we're set for the 1st annual Sillyville (Re)union in Aug or Sep?

I'm off to the store to deal with the weekly delivery. See you in about ten hours.

Have a good day at the store. I will be spending the next 8 hrs at my desk...Woo-hoo...can you feel my excitement?

Sounds like he was tapping the bottle...lol

Good Morning Sillies!

It's Hump Day! Only 2 more days until the weekend and only 2 weeks or so until Daylight Savings Time!!!! Longer days are ahead!!!!!

We are supposed to get some snow today as well, maybe 2 inches.

elye Community Regular

Morning, Sillies!

So Peter, when you get back, Michelle will likely be over the finish line, and in THIRD PLACE!! (fingers double-crossed, here). It's about twelve hours from the last checkpoint to Whitehorse. Apparently, the big money is in the top three finishes, and then drops significantly, but the first six, I believe, win money. So that girl MUST take over Dinky Dalton.

I think I may have pink eye. It's all goopy and running and red.

Hi, Alex!

Oh, no, not something else? Pink eye is running (pun intended) rampant through DS's school. I remember hearing that it seems to apear and spread through society in February and March. So! We're right on schedule... :rolleyes:

Alex!! I didn't check....are you about to make a big flipover? Eye fluids count, big time....

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

OMG...... :lol::lol: Auntie Beaverly, where do you find these clips? How do you know what to put in the search box? East Asian Kink? Chinese Bum-Spanking Fetish? :lol::o

So very sorry, miss grammar poohbah, but there's a beautiful simple elegance (actual math term) to singularities in theoretical physics and advanced math which simply cannot be appreciated by all. (oh sh!t I'm gittin' all uppity)

Hey!! Mr, Mathie Man!....I'll just have you know that there is no "simple elegance" like that found in perfect alliteration, or lilting sonnets in iambic pentametre, or substantives neatly completing their predicates.... :lol::lol::rolleyes:<_<

Wahhhhhhhh :( Em's making me feel old. Make 'er STOP!

VCRs didn't exist when I was that age. :(

Ha! Just realized something, and I'll actually admit it....I, too, wasn't a young child when VCRs were household items. It was naughty magazines under his bed....

Oops I knew this.

But I thought the prior fluidosities (fluidations?) were all POST-post :lol:

...Must be "fluidities"....stress on the third syllable.... <_<:rolleyes:

Heyy!!! Thank gawd, something to take over the absolutely addictive thrills of the Quest! I felt I'd be lost when it was over, as it's another three months until the Triple Crown, and those are only a couple of minutes long... Point me to the website!

Darn210 Enthusiast

Just a jigger, mind you, and I've gone back to coffee now. (Mmmmmmmm wah-HOCK-in!!!!)

Oh yes, there it is. . . Tom was drinking yesterday and it was the absinthe. . . Now everything else you read from him last night you should "hear" with a slur.

:lol: :lol:

I swear Janet, you're so efficiently ON today. I crack up at nearly every sentence. :lol:

This line also now makes a lot more sense . . .

(Psssssst!!! Janet!! (No one else look :lol:

Didn't we talk about darn tootin' /210 on this very thread months ago, as you approached post 500's captionability horizon?

)

You are correct sir!!! <in my best Phil Hartman imitation of Ed McMahon>

I told you I've spent too much time on that website:

From the 2008 Rules:

10. Prize Money (U.S. Currency):

Following is the breakdown of prize money. Mushers finishing 16th through 30th will receive $1,000.

1. $35,000 4. $16,500 7. $11,000 10. $7,000 13. $5,000

2. $25,000 5. $14,500 8. $9,000 11. $6,500 14. $4,500

3. $20,000 6. $13,000 9. $8,000 12. $6,000 15. $4,000

And FYI, the entry fee (plus some other fees) was $1250 . . . Then add all your transportation and food costs . . . and if you drop dogs and have them transported for you, that costs money, too . . .

Oh yes, tell Prince Philip I said "Hello" and that I really enjoyed playing Pictionary with the royal family the last time I was in town. Oh . . . and tell him that I got the Queen's voicemail message and I just haven't had time to call back.

      Wow!! Scott, Trent and Christiana thank you so much for your fast replies!! The information you have shared with me has helped me tremendously.   Thank you for all the articles.  I appreciate you all so much!! I’ll keep you posted in this post.  I will encourage her to get tested.  I feel a little better!

      It was gradual, just not being able to catch my breathe like I always had to take a deep breathe even taking a few steps I would be winded.

      Hi Marie Welcome to the forum. I am so sorry your daughter is pointing the finger at you like this.   I am afraid children of any age can be very cruel to their parents - I certainly look back at some of the things I said to my mother and father in the past, and wish I could unsay them.  Sometimes people just need a safe place to vent, and unfortunately having a go at one's parents is the all too easy option.  If she is anything like me, she will regret what she says one day.  (Oh... if only I had the chance rewind the clock!) I just wanted to add one more thing to Trent's and Scott's excellent posts and that is regarding diet:  I have to say, not one person  (my nutritionist, my gastroenterologist or GP) has EVER suggested that a poor diet was the cause of my coeliac disease.    In all the various clinics I have attended these past nearly 12 years no-one has ever asked if I was brought up on processed food, or questioned if I eat 5 fruit and veg a day.  Sure, unfortunately I am only too well aware that I could do a lot better with my diet and it's a constant challenge for me not to give into what I like (unfortunately I've always had a sweet tooth).   But I know some super healthy 10 fruit and veg a day types who still got coeliac disease, and equally, a lot of people who eat all the wrong stuff and they still have cast iron stomachs. Do encourage her to get checked though - it may be that she hasn't got coeliac disease at all. Come back to us if you need any more support through the process. Cristiana

      Welcome to the forum, @Marie70! The first thing to know is that celiac disease has a genetic base. The two main genes that have been identified as providing the potential to develop celiac disease are HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8. About 40% of  the general population carries one or both of these genes. However, only about 1% of the general population ever develops celiac disease. So, we know that in addition to possessing the genetic potential to develop celiac disease, there has to be some triggering environmental or medical "stress" factor (or factors) that switches the gene or genes on such that they are awakened from their latent condition and become active. What may be the triggering factor (or factors) is the subject of much debate. Here is an article that discusses this subject: Second, what will your daughter have to say if her testing for celiac disease is negative? She may have to add crow to her diet. Third, and this is what I really want to focus on because my wife and I are dealing with something similar in our relationship with our own adult daughter: the real problem is not whatever shortcomings you, as the family cook, may have had when providing meals, the real problem is with your daughter's heart/soul/attitude. If it turns out to be true that she has celiac disease, it is likely she would have developed the condition sooner or later even if her diet had been healthier while growing up. She is angry about the prospect of having to deal with the dietary and social limitations that having celiac disease would impose upon her. She doesn't want to face up to the fact that this may be a new reality that will dramatically changer her life and she is looking for someone or something to blame. And she has conveniently turned her wrath on you rather than saying to herself, "Okay, this is what it is. Now what can I do to make adjustments in order to with it the best way I can?"  When faced with a life-changing reality, people will either accept it for what it is, make adjustments and move on or they will become angry and look for something or someone to blame and get stuck. For now, at least, your daughter has chosen the latter option. Don't let her problem destroy both of you.
    • Scott Adams
      It sounds like you’re carrying a lot of guilt, but please know that you didn’t cause your daughter’s potential celiac disease or your son’s Crohn’s. These conditions have strong genetic components, and while diet can influence symptoms, it does not cause autoimmune diseases. You did the best you could with the knowledge you had at the time, and no parent is perfect. Your daughter’s frustration is understandable, but it’s likely coming from a place of fear and uncertainty rather than true blame. Let her get tested, and if she does have celiac disease, you can support her moving forward. Instead of focusing on guilt, try shifting the conversation toward healing and learning together. You’re not alone, and you don’t deserve to carry this weight on your own. This article might be helpful. She needs to be screened for celiac disease before she can be sure that she has it. Another approach not discussed in the article is a genetic test for celiac disease, which she could do without eating gluten.
