Good morning me sillies- Amanda- hope you are feeling better!!!!!!!!!!!

has anyone seen the yeti lately? I am concerned that with all this absinthian intoxication lately, he has somehow slipped under the radar and is wandering aiimlessly preying on spring break college girls down in Florida. OMG- maybe he'll show up in Yetis Gone Wild. Could he be chillin' with Chuck Norris?

hhhmmm, 10-15 silies storming the entire french army? It'll require some planning.

We could get them all drunk on absinthe and then take over.

Nekkid firefighters??? I'm there!!

I think if we have ourselves, the Yeti, Chuck and nekkid firefighters, storming the chalet hould be no problem. In fact, we could do on Bastille Day when all those Frenchies are preoccupied!

However, three children later, Gnikkeigh has it all sussed out

Gnikkeigh knows how to lose her gnickers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

Here is a question posed to me by The Ripper, and all of my linguistic texts have not afforded me the answer. Have not tried Mr. Google...guess I'm afraid I may let in some scary, pornographic, sicko spam er sumfin':

The Ripper is my kind of kid!!! Middle school? Is it possible that sh!t is actually a compound verb as in "to take a sh!t"????

Jeez, Louise, the questions we deal with here. :D

The Canadian Oxford Dictionary, 2ed, lists all three of those (in alphabetical order, so shat comes first, then sh!t, and finally sh!tted). Yes, that's right, the Oxford dictionary, and it's Canadian version, includes all those words you can't say on television. It labels this one as coarse slang, and includes all the senses, including the transitive sense of "to lie or exaggerate to."

B)

A sure sign of spring: As I was looking this up, I glanced out my window to see a robin sitting in the maple tree. He's gone now, but he was there for a good five minutes.

OK- can't argue with the COED!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the Irish truly know what they're saying--The wee beast just shat in me potatoes!....

Oh! This is wonderfully portentous...

That robin, I'm sure, was keeping a wary eye on your house, Peter--making sure no cats wandered out... ;)

:lol: :lol: On the first part and I LOVE robins- first sign of spring with their swelled orange breast....remind me of my mom!!!!!!!!!! Oh God- that sounded weird. My mom did not have a swollen orange chest (that I know of).

:So yay! I met yolo!! :D

We talked for close to 2 hrs :o and plan to do it again.

And I expect to attend some art, poetry & musical jam session gatherings that friends of hers organize. I've never been that big on poetry which isn't actually lyrics, but hey, maybe I'll dig it AND there's jamming afterwards!! :rolleyes:;)

Yeah Tom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

We sat in an hour of darkness, too, in front of the fireplace, playing Password.

Jack disappeared down the hall for a few minutes to let Gus out. When he returned, he announced that it was SO dark outside, but dogs seem to know right where to go, because "Gus shat in his regular spot!" (Just waiting to employ this new word)..... :rolleyes:

I'm telling you Em- you have got a winner on your hands. When I taught middle school- Jack the Ripper was my kind of kid! God I miss those crazy middle school kids!!!!!!

I've been suspecting that our yeti has been in to the hospital, visiting my dad....Dad has spoken of a very large individual wearing a lot of clothing...very covered up, but one can see a lot of hair sticking out, standing there, not talking. I assumed a couple of weeks ago that these stories were a result of the infection and/or morphine, but there have been visits the last few days, and Dad's off everything. At first he thought it was God, and that he was dead.

Oh God- that sounded weird. My mom did not have a swollen orange chest (that I know of).

:lol::lol:

This could absolutely be a possibility in my family......... <_<:rolleyes:

Poor Ptaum - I can tell it's driving him INSANE :lol:

It IS!! How is this slang? And how can typing the extra S be attributed to a desSire to type LESSSS???? :wacko: :wacko:

Oh I couldn't agree with you more!!!! All those misspellings . . . drives me BONKERS!!!!

:lol::lol::lol:

:lol::lol::lol:

Agread then . . .BONKARS!!

:lol: And Janet whips out Nov27!!!

Oh thank heavens, I thought we'd lost him (the yeti, not your dad). It's nice to hear that he feels a sense of social responsibility and visits the bedbound. Or maybe he feels (as I suspect most of us do) that your dad is part of our family and we all wish we could visit him. Knowing what I do of your dad through you I can't imagine that he would find it at all odd to see a parade of people he's never seen before come traipsing through his room. (Well, Chuck might give him pause.)

Good Sunday morning, Sillies......

Any of us regular church goers here? We are not :ph34r: . Sunday mornings, when I've been here, seem pretty quiet...

When I do make the time to go, it's to a 2:30 service. Not much easier to fit in, you'd think, but there you are...

Curious timing Em. <uhhh ok I DO know today is Sunday>

I mean that on my little walk a few days ago I was scouting out the closest churches, thinking I may attend Mass today.

Except for the odd wedding or funeral, I've never voluntarily gone to Mass.

Went plenty as a kid when my parents made me, but that's about it.

Not quite sure yet whether I'll go today.

Kinda ended up w/ only 2hrs sleep last night. :blearyeyedface:

Shelly's having a bit of a crisis w/ her 9yo, so I was on the ph until 3am, then couldn't sleep until after 4, and that was on the recliner.

Woke at 6:30 and headed to bed but couldn't get back to sleep. Gave up @9.

Mmmmmmmm coffeeeeeeeeeeeee :rolleyes:

:lol::lol:

Well...Chuck is supposed to give everyone pause...

Actually, the urologist who conducted the scope test (cannot remember its name--a camera up into the bladder--lovely) asked Dad as he was pulling the tube out and peeling his gloves off, "Gee, Mr. Lye, can I get your autograph? Here, getcha a pen...just rip off a corner of the paper sheet under you..." :blink::unsure:

Me, neither, until the last couple of years. Always feel better upon leaving.... :)

mmmm, your dad's urologist is young enough to have watched the shows? That would give me pause. I like my specialists to be at least my age, although I guess at some point that's no longer possible.

Hello Sunday Sillies- Welp, Susie's in Vegas (what happens in Vegas stays there? I always figured if it happened across state lines that rule applied- what makes Vegas so special?).

It IS!! How is this slang? And how can typing the extra S be attributed to a desSire to type LESSSS???? :wacko: :wacko:

What, we can't say we have celiacs? :P :P

The yeti is a kind creature :wub: Chuck would give any of us pause (especially Patti!!)

Uncle ray's latest (changed to be more "politically correct"):

Sick Day

"I No Come Work Today!"

Joe calls into work and says, "Hey, I'm not coming to work today.

I'm sick, headache, stomach ache, legs hurt. I'm not coming to work."

The boss says, "You know something, Joe, I really need you today. When I feel like that, I go to my wife and tell her to give me sex. That makes everything better and I go to work. You try that."

Two hours later Joe calls again. "I did what you said, I feel great.

I'll be at work soon. By the way..........you've got nice house." :P

Hehe Janet .. . .I was just trying to find my place and your nov27 '07 self-quoting cracked me up again. :lol:

I thank thee as it's mostly been a sad day, for a number of reasons, but I'm going to just blame the scant 2hrs sleep and be done wif it.

Oh. . ...Bev! LOL @ Uncle Ray's sick day :lol: (I imagined all the non-cleaned-up parts for myself)

Hope you have a sound, lengthy sleep tonight, Ptaum.... :)

Sleep knits up the ravelled sleeve of care.....

Thx Em :)

Hey Sarah . .... .fire out I hope?

Ridgewalker Contributor

The celiacS thing gets on my nerves waaaaaay more than it probably should, too- which is why I keep my mouf shut! ;) Oh you have celiacs? How many do you have? Where do they all sleep, and do you have enough gluten-free bread for them all?

Fire update-- No flames visible on my side of the mountain tonight!!! Yay! (Although it did look reeeeally wicked.) Wildfires = Bad. We've had a bit of rain, which helps. The vast majority of the fire is out!

Hi Tom! :D

Heaven forbid you should keep them in the basement since most of them are probably allergic to mold as well.

And do be sure to stock up on the toilet paper.

Of course, if they're at your house be sure to outfit each one with a hose and shovel.

I made an unusual discovery today. If you accidentally leave the "m" out when typing in homedepot.com you get a most unexpected website.

Well . . . glad that my poor spelling skills can give you a lift.

I have to say Ptaum, that before you pointed it out (during the previous CeliacS conversation . . . if you want, I'll go back and quote it), I don't think I ever paid too much attention to someone typing/saying CeliacS. Now when I see/hear it, it's like fingernails on a chalk board . . . thanks ever-so-much for the enlightenment.

Oh, I have a good memory for really trival stuff like that. It's the big things I tend to forget. I also have a gnack for remembering stuff that didn't even happen.

Good Monday morning, Mon Sillies!

Well! I hope you slept well, Ptaum, and I hope those embers on the mountain are put out today, Sarah, and that this first day smoke-free for YOU goes smoothly...Hope your dad's test went without a hitch, Amanda, and that your cold has subsided. Today's the Las Vegas wedding! Of course, hoping Kissey2 catches all of the marital projectiles...

;) Oh you have celiacs? How many do you have? Where do they all sleep, and do you have enough gluten-free bread for them all?

:lol::lol:

Yes...I think the trend is to have less and less of them these days. The feeding bills, the education...and so many stay at home for soooo long. Many of us just cannot get rid of our celiacs!

Hoe Depot......Can there be such a thing? Aisles and aisles of beds that can be strapped to one's back, breakaway clothing...

Is there a scratch and dent section? :huh::lol:

Yay, Sarah!! Oracle Peter says it, so we know it is true..... :):)

Uncle ray is here again!

Spaghetti

For several years, a man was having an affair with an Italian woman. One night, she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18.

She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write "Spaghetti" on the back. He would then arrange for the child support payments to begin.

One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife.

"Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post card today."

"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it later," he said.

The wife obeyed and watched as her husband read the ca rd, turned white, and fainted. On the card was written: "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Three with meatballs, two without. Send extra sauce."

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
    • trents
      @Manaan2, have you considered the possibility that she might be cross reacting to some food or foods that technically don't contain gluten but whose proteins closely resemble gluten. Chief candidates might be dairy (casein), oats (avenin), soy, corn and eggs. One small study showed that 50% of celiacs react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) like they do gluten.
