Well.......if ya want them to just....you know.....disappear... . . .. lemme know.....

I think people might notice . . . . . .

But I got great knees......

Ahhhhh . . . perhaps Josie's in the right home . . . I can totally relate to her knee problems.

Poor wittle Josie! keep an eye on her, Janet...I've heard that veterenairy knee/hip surgery that is done before things get bad is considerably less involved (read: cheaper)....

Doc said "sooner than later" when we start noticing issues will result in an "Overall better long-term outcome" . . . I read "Don't let it get so bad that she ends up screwing up other things to compensate."

Watch for my "tat" on ebay to pay my vet bills!!

What??? A what made from a WHAT????????

I first discovered them at Petsmart in Monterey, years ago......pizzle dog treats...........it was Tika's FAVORITE thing of all time (saucy gal) but......I'm not sure Annie has ever had the pleasure of a pizzle.

<although, she came to the pound pregnant and all her pups were adopted out, so she did have at least ONE encounter w/ a pizzle )

B. Sir Winston Churchill

'Twas the one I picked, and, he is my favorite world leader in all of history......marvelous painter also, and fought the "black dog" of depression........hence, the whiskey, I guess

OHHHHHH . . . I HEAR ya in that one!!! I've got a couple of favoUrite posters that usually annoy me and what do I do? . . . I almost always go read what they say so that I can tell my self "I knew they were going to say that!!!" and be all annoyed again.

who? who are they? I wanna know so *I* can be annoyed also!!!!!!!!! Because, I don't stray too far outside of the 'Ville any more......but come on, I want to be annoyed also!!!!!!!

I was thawing some pork chops in the microwave, planning to top with veggies and some salt-free stewed tomatoes. I was chopping the veggies, and re-read the can....I missed this in the store--natural flavors

OMG Patti - and all youse guys - a confession - I eat things w/ natural flavoUrs regularly..... I know......careless..........sloppy...........and maybe this is why I'm not my best any more? Good thing you saw that and averted the disaster!

But - -but - - OMG - guess I need a lecture on the avoidance of these ersatz flavors.....

They are also dog treats. We sell them. The treats are also known as bullwrinkles, and as steer sticks. Full size they are almost 30 inches, but are popular when cut into 12- 8- or 5-inch pieces.

Yes, who doesn't love a good pizzle....

y. Now does anybody else here feel like this is somehow Emily's fault???!!!???

*snort*

Watch for my "tat" on ebay to pay my vet bills!!

I'm w/ ya too Alex. I wasn't sure if I was gonna say so, but I see I'm not alone.

A couple weeks ago I felt like I could create a reply w/ all (well .. . .5-7?) ppl's replies in one.

And more recently there are times I've wondered if newbies are being helped or harmed by seeing some of these STRONGLY presented, and in my mind only marginally correct, at best, in only the most narrowly defined circumstance.

Yet these opinions are spewed as being applicable to ALL situations.

Particularly bothersome in some cases where the opinion is formed over just a few weeks. <shakes head>

OK . ....back to Sillyville ... .

That dang RIPPER!!!!!!!!!

Never expected THAT!!

<give him a firm but harmless back-of-the-head slap for me will ya?>

I think Miss Pizzle should re-captionate to "Rocky & Bullwrinkle"

Hitler was a gifted artist - - some of his landscapes were literally beautiful....and he also loved dogs, with his entire being. These facts about the the most infamous madman of our time are somehow not just unsettling, but terrifying.. ..I'm not certain why.

who? who are they? I wanna know so *I* can be annoyed also!!!!!!!!! Because, I don't stray too far outside of the 'Ville any more......but come on, I want to be annoyed also!!!!!!!

Me, too! I wanna know if one of them is the only member by whom I've been greatly irritated so far in this great c.com adventure....c'mon - - give us a hint...Males? Females? Old? Young?

Is it Tran Chow?

It could be my dad.........for all we know.....

Susie!!! DO stay away from those natural flavoUrs!

Hmm.... . .. .I wonder if that packaged beef jerky stuff is really just a heap o' pizzle?

Avoid the round ones

Had a lovely conversation today with two other women in other labs about how socially inept we all are and how much we enjoy being that way.

Thanks for putting up with my near incapacitation in communication

[jerseyangel]

But - -but - - OMG - guess I need a lecture on the avoidance of these ersatz flavors.....

Nope--no lecture, but not checking and making sure what's in them could be part of the problem Actually a major part if it's in something you eat regularly....this is the point in a conversation where I say "That's all I'm going to say" and then Mark says "No, it's not".

Well, time for "Lost"--the season finale.....I better get some answers tonight!

[jerseyangel]

Thanks for putting up with my near incapacitation in communication

Pe-shaw!! You communicate just fine and dandy--a true Sillie

But hey.....pizzles aren't round...um...are they?...haven't seen all that many, actually.... . .

Gotta say, Jess, that I've never in my life wanted to meet and socialize with a scientist, until I started chatting with you....

[Darn210]

Well, I sure as hell ain't gonna put it in writing . . . especially since we can't go back and edit anymore. There is more than one on my list, and they don't always annoy me. All I'll say is that I've never seen them on this thread . . . but . . . . . . maybe they read along anonomously (and before you think it, it's not Peter) or logout and then just visit as a guest.

What??!!?? Hell, you talk real good, Jess!!!

[DingoGirl]

Is it Tran Chow?

:lol: Poor Chow has no idea how involved he is here.........

beef jerky - heap o' pizzle........hmmm..........must ponder (BTW the pizzle treats are shredded - so - it's really shredded pizzle - not whole - I don't think they're sold whole to pets or are they? Dang that would be a big' un )

:lol: This is interesting - I do not enjoy my social ineptness (David calls me Kissey T - - T for Tourettes because I say the most spastic things sometimes )

*snooooooort*

Well.....sometimes they're spies, you know...... And sometimes......they're just newbies w/ no user name yet and.........will probably never do any celiac research again, after scrambling off in a cloud of dust

...And now they're gone......yep, it's the Band of Irritants... . .I can jus' feel it......

Band of Irritants...... :lol: Well, too obvious for a band name but.......excellent name for....those little people inside my brain who torture me :lol:

Yes, yes, Jhianut MUST pm us the names........then we'll come up with secret code names......then we'll go and read other threads - as guests, of course - and then we'll vote *snigger*

[Darn210]

Well, why is everyone ganging up on me? . . . expecting me to spill my guts? . . . I believe there were other sillies that were irritated by (nonsilly) members!!

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

[elye]

I had a feeling that particular member irritated more than just me!!!!!

Guess that rules out . . . Carla . . .

[tom]

OhMyGAAAAAAAAwwwwwwwwwd hee-larry-us

(I couldn't help but scroll up to check for a PM )

P.S. EMILY!!!!! YES!! That's him or her!!

[~alex~]

I'm sorry I brought this on Janet. But it is comforting to know that I'm not the only one who gets aggravated by some posts. I guess its normal. But I must resolve to be more patient and understanding of people who do/act/say things that drive me around the bend. It's just so difficult!!! I'm sooooo easily annoyed by some types of people. I worked with someone once who bothered me so much that I had to fake sick a couple times a month to go home early because she was so irritating that I feared I might tell her what I really though about her . . . which would include some horribly hurtful words.

Can I learn to be more patient and understanding?

[Darn210]

Guess that rules out . . . Carla . . .

Oh!!!! . . . and duh . . . it rules out . . . ME!!!!

Actually . . . confession time . . . my daughter's GI wanted everyone in the family to get screened. I was pretty darn sure that it came through my husband's side of the family (looking at all the digestive issues). Well, hubby's blood test was negative (last fall). So it's only been a yearf since my daughter's diagnosis and I'm going to go get my blood test tomorrow .

[elye]

Can I learn to be more patient and understanding?

Alex!! I'd say that the big test is upon you.. .. .you're now married... .. .

[Darn210]

I'm sorry I brought this on Janet. But it is comforting to know that I'm not the only one who gets aggravated by some posts.

Alex!!!! No Worries, Mate!!! I can handle it!!! I was debating doing the PM thing . . . it's just those things usually end up bitin' me in the arse later down the road and then I totally regret spillin' out too much info. I'll go and PM everybody with the names and then I'll end up offending one of youse guys because someone on me list is a best buddy. . . well, maybe not . . . but you know what I mean.
