Sillieeeeeessssssss,

I'm driving myself nuts :( I've already started getting stuff together for my weekend trip.....I've changed my mind on one outfit (the one for Sunday) and I'm gonna hate tomorrow when I actually have to pack and get the food ready that I'm bringing to the party. Of course, that doesn't count the food I have to bring for myself...and the water :huh:

Gawd....this is supposed to be fun. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill :lol: I know this, but do it anyway :huh:

Oh--on a related note, I talked to my mom today and she told me that my sister's doctor wants to try shock therapy :o For cryin' out loud....why can't they do an antibody test before they resort to such measures? :angry:

I've toiled this afternoon getting rid of all evidence of the unfortunate linkage snafu. B) Don't quite know how it happened--some sort of odd mixup, I suspect, but it wasn't the unamused poster....she just happened onto it. Probably would have happened sooner or later. ;)

Onward and upward! :P

Really???

The links are gone now so I can't test it out for meself.

And, this has had an astonishing side effect! Scott deleted two posts from page 2 of this thread. This has caused the very foundation of Sillyville to warp. That which they always worried about on Star Trek has happened to Sillyville. The first post on page 800 is now a post by, wait for it, jerseyangel.

The top two posts on every page from 3 onwards have been moved to the bottom of the previous page.

My poor head is spinning. :o :o

Well Peter, congratulations. You've uncovered my diabolical scheme to be the new ruler--by default. In one fell swoop, I have taken control of and shaken Silliville to it's core. B)

Well, for the first time, I just got busted for over emoticonizing! How utterly style-cramping and expressiveness-squashing! HARUMPH!

Oh Poopy Cow!!!!

Thanks! Hey that's a good idea... Actually, I hit the snooze button for about 30 minutes anyway, lol ... So if I put the patch on the first time I hit it, then by the time I'm really awake, it'll be working. Perfect!

Heyyyyyyy that's quite a system you've got there. I think you're home-free once the 1st day is done, tho I know they say 3 days.

:( wowwwwwww

I don't suppose there's any documentation from the kinesiologist visit and/or short gluten-free time of feeling better . . .. .

:ph34r: I used to fear that I'd get shock-therapy against my will.

It's a lot less far-fetched than you'd think. :ph34r:

Very very interesting piece of sleuthing & sussing of the pertinent impact of this short-sighted near-vandalesque perturbation of order.

Alas, trying to keep chin up- Kurt and I are going to the Cape/Nantucket this weekend. It's going to rain all weekend and I don't care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

Not that I've imagined how I would spend my time in my cottage on the Cape! :lol: I'm not jealous of how you're feeling though :( . I hope you don't too feel to wretched to enjoy your time on the Cape. I just love saying the Cape lol.

Maybe I am now in a past Queen position!!! Perhaps I am the first on page 300, or 400.....a queen that never got to see her day..... :rolleyes::rolleyes::lol:

I know--I could hardly believe it. This is supposedly a "top doc" psychiatrist. <_< They said she would be anaethetised and the whole thing would take about 15 minutes. They hope to "reset" things in her brain. Sounds barbaric to me.

Tom--I can believe it isn't far-fetched, as I highly doubt she would have a lot of say in this.

I bumped into this article on North America's earliest humans, pre-dating Clovis by 1000 yrs. Open Original Shared Link

This cracked me up:

"To make sure the Oregon cave material hadn't been contaminated with modern DNA, the researchers tested more than 50 people who worked at the site. The DNA testing indicated that the feces belonged to Native Americans in two groups that can be traced to Siberia and East Asia."

"Awright!!! Which archeologist crapped in the cave?? Earl?? AGAIN???"

We got patti'd- :lol: :lol: It's always the quiet ones! Have you noticed Patti getting funnier and sassier- just like my mom- took me ten years but I had her burping and farting. She would burp (a god one I might add) and I'd say "MOM!" and she would just giggle. Once, only once, did she EVER swera at me and it was so "cute" because she was so hard to rile up that I burst out laughing.

      @Mynx, how long have you been gluten-free? I ask because many newly diagnosed celiacs react to many things, and often think their reactions are caused by gluten, when in fact, they are really caused by a combination of a sensitive gut due to damage, as well as additional food intolerance/leaky gut issues to other foods which may be temporary until their villi heal.
    • Scott Adams
      Many major brands of distilled vinegar in the USA, including Heinz white vinegar, are typically made from corn. In the United States, corn is a common and cost-effective raw material used in the production of distilled white vinegar. The process involves fermenting the sugars derived from corn into alcohol, which is then further fermented into acetic acid to produce vinegar. Distillation follows, which purifies the liquid and removes impurities, including any residual proteins or allergens. While the source of the vinegar (e.g., corn) is not always explicitly stated on the label, corn-derived vinegar is widely used in the food industry due to its neutral flavor and affordability. For individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease, distilled vinegar made from corn is generally considered safe, as the distillation process effectively removes gluten proteins. However, if you have concerns about cross-contamination or specific sensitivities, it’s always a good idea to contact the manufacturer directly to confirm the sourcing and production practices. Heinz, for example, has stated that their distilled white vinegar is gluten-free and safe for those with celiac disease, but verifying this information can provide additional peace of mind. The belief that distilled vinegar is gluten-free is rooted in the scientific understanding that gluten proteins, which are large and complex molecules, are generally too big to pass through the distillation process. Distillation involves heating a liquid to create vapor, which is then condensed back into a liquid form, leaving behind larger molecules like gluten proteins. However, the concern about cross-contamination arises from the possibility that gluten-containing ingredients may have been present in the liquid prior to distillation. While the distillation process itself is highly effective at removing gluten, the equipment used in production could potentially introduce trace amounts of gluten if not thoroughly cleaned between batches. For most individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, distilled vinegar is considered safe because the gluten content, if any, is typically below the threshold that would trigger a reaction. However, for those with extreme gluten intolerance or celiac disease, even trace amounts can cause adverse effects. This is why some individuals, like yourself, may choose to avoid commercially produced distilled vinegar and opt for alternatives like apple cider vinegar, which can be verified as gluten-free. The meticulous process of researching ingredients and preparing homemade products, such as ketchup, is indeed challenging but crucial for maintaining health and avoiding gluten exposure. It’s important to note that regulatory standards for gluten-free labeling vary by region, and in many places, products labeled "gluten-free" must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten, which is considered safe for the vast majority of people with celiac disease. Nonetheless, individual sensitivity levels can vary, and your approach highlights the importance of personalized dietary management for those with severe gluten intolerance.

      I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (LC) for quite a few years, so I have been gluten-free and DF.  I would like to get tested for Celiac Disease because of the possibility of cross contamination and colon cancer.  And if you were hospitalized and didn't have a celiac diagnosis you could not get gluten-free food, I don't know if that is true or not.  Also because there is chance of colon cancer so I want to know if I have Celiac Disease and need to be on very restrictive diet.  The only testing I did was a sigmoid scope and Enter Lab but no gene testing.  I know I can go back to eating gluten for a few months, but I would worry you would have to stay home for the few months while getting gluten.  What other options do I have?  Should I do the gene testing?  Maybe through Entero Lab?  Any other tests?  How important is it to have Celiac diagnosed? Thank you! Barb
    • trents
      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.
    • Mynx
      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.
