Have never seen a snake at this house . . . I think one of us would have seen one by now if that was our problem (and this would also have filled my children's hearts with glee). I have heard that if a frog finds your pond, he will stay. If you bring one to your pond, he will eventually leave. Problem is, frogs just don't "happen" by our little pond . . . perhaps I should put out signs.

:lol: Or add a little fountain or waterfall. The sound of running water helps attract them, too.

Or how about the homeopathic approach - - like attracts like? You need to put out little frog decoys, perhaps a cute little female frog, to attact a couple of males. You could have a hidden speaker out there, playing a loop of croaking frog-chatter.... .... ...

Hey, it'd work for me.... . .. :rolleyes:

Perhaps we need to adopt this approach with our lost yeti. One huge yeti effigy, sitting on my doorstep.... ...

My knee has been bothering me so much that it has been keeping me from doing some of the things that I like to do and forget about spending any time with Sven, just too painful!!

Phorget physical therapy. Just get some good drugs, gia-gnet :lol: But anywho, good that yer finally getting this done.......you'll be back to Sven in no time. :)

Jeez, if only I could somehow nonchalantly get Llamalady to divulge her inseam measurement.....I'd know in a second if she's our yeti!

*snooooooooooort*

:lol: :lol:

Excellent. Where is LL? no sighting today...........methinks this confirms, 'tis our angry, abandoned yeti.......just toying with us.........

Does anyone else suspect that our lost, neglected, embittered yeti just might be behind the disappearance of these Silly frogs?

:lol: :lol: Well I do

Problem is, frogs just don't "happen" by our little pond . . . perhaps I should put out signs.

Or, put a couple o' dingos in yer yard. Go figure, w/ two dogs in the back, tons and tons of phrogs here. :blink: Three years ago, when we moved in, they were just miniscule - so cute - about 3/4 inch each. Got bigger and bigger - and fewer and fewer (uglier too) - as each season passed. And now, three years later, we have tons of cute li'l Lilliputian frogs again.......... Weezee loves 'em, but doesn't eat them. :lol: Poor Old Stink loved her a good froggie............ she'd have been enjoying herself quite a bit this year. :)

And BTW Stinker's nanny saw the dingo video.........said it looked exactly. like. our. Stinker.......... :wub:

and...........passing out whilst urinating? wee wee syncope? :lol: OMG - - I used to pass out a lot but - 'twas because my BP was like - - 80 over 45 :blink: and I still feel this way, regularly.......

OMG :angry:

'tis so bloody hot

and humid

103 degrees but - humidity today - - - am sweating like a phart in a phry pan :lol:

Could it be that you are on outline mode? Find the options box at the top of this thread on the right and choose linear.

OMG.......I think this could be codespeak...........

This may be our yeti, trying to tell us that he's lost . . ..doesn't know where he is... .. . perhaps kidnapped, being held somewhere, and he cannot divulge his whereabouts....just little hints...... . .. .

Couldn't think of any better thread in which to post this:

Open Original Shared Link

On a similar note.....I once knew a woman who would cry when she went poop...some sort of uncontrollable physical response. I wonder if there's medical term for that. :huh:

To solve the mystery of the disappearing phrogs, I think I will pose this question to my wildlife biologist son the next time we speak.

So...how invasive is this knee surgery?

Sooo...what is the difference between standard and linear? Is there any? Or are they just trying to confuse us? :blink:

Ooohhhhh.....I see....linear has that annoying first post on every page of a thread.....standard does away with that.......Thank gawd....now maybe I can get the Oscar Mayer song out of my head :wacko: ........my bologna has a first name.........

Yes, it's been quite delightful. Pennsylvania usually gets our weather 1 day later. My DS lived in Pittsburgh until just recently. We're supposed to keep this weather for the rest of the week! :D

      is my cleiac disease gone?

      It would be interesting to see if you were tested again for blood antibodies after abandoning the gluten free diet for several weeks to a few months what the results would be. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever...

We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse.

      I agree, and generally it means that it isn't working in a high enough percentage of participants to continue pursuing it.

Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever had celiac disease. As I said above, the blood antibody testing can yield false positives. And it is also true that celiac-like symptoms can be produced by other medical conditions.

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?

      Check out this celiac story  I was diagnosed early 2000s with the blood test  since then I have for the most part maintained a gluten-free diet  Recently (August 2025) I drove from Southern Illinois to Lake Erie Ohio On the drive back I was extremely hungry and I had a coupon at a hamburger chain and I stopped and forgot to request gluten-free bun etc and quickly consumed two hamburgers. I promptly ate both of them and had absolutely no problem since then I've been eating plenty of gluten  Is my celiac gone?  Insert: No, celiac disease cannot just end because there is no cure for it; however, a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet allows the small intestine to heal and symptoms to go away. To manage the condition effectively, you must strictly avoid all sources of gluten, including wheat, barley, and rye, which are common in the American diet. Sticking to the diet can lead to significant symptom improvement and intestinal healing, but it requires ongoing commitment and monitoring with a healthcare professional  Regarding medical test I had My stools analyzed Giardia Ag Cryptosporidium Ag and they came back negative  I had the lactulose test and it came back high so I'm on two weeks of heavy antibiotics That still has not stopped me from eating gluten. Here's what I think is going on and I hope to have your opinion regarding it  Since I've been gluten-free for so long my intestinal tract has repaired itself consequently anything I eat with gluten now just bounces right off with no damage to my gut  however  when I asked AI what was going on the reply was celiac has not gone away and  if I continue to eat gluten I'm going to have problems   I look forward to your sage advice as to what the heck is going on with me Thank you for reading Mike 09112025
