My grandmother used to tell that one, but slightly different:

A belch is but a breath of air breathed upward from the heart, but when it takes a downward turn, it's usually called a fart.

Carla doesn't either ... colors are all wrong ... I think the type is different, too, but not sure.

Yep--the type is different, too. That's actually the first thing I noticed this morning.

It's harder to read.

I don't dislike ALL the colors, just the gray on the reply, quote, etc. buttons, and the DARK navy on the bar at the top. I don't particularly like gray and blue together ... and it doesn't go with the old colors on the celiac.com part. Okay, I'm picky ...

After having more time to look at the board changes ... the navy would look fine if the top part that says Celiac.com was changed to coordinate.

I still don't like the gray buttons.

But I do like the way the new little suitcase thingies look and the way the emoticons show the ones you use the most.

The type is harder to read though.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who is not a huge fan of the new colour scheme here.

(and I have to apologize to almost everyone [exceot maybe nikki] for the spelling of the word colour)

Some of us kept the proper spelling :P

Hi Ryan!!

I missed saying this yesterday. It's always good to see you. Come by more often. :)

Hey Ryan- Good to "see" you!

Job history (good word usage)

My first job was working in an Orange Juice factory, but I got canned. I

couldn't concentrate.

Then I worked in the woods as a Lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so

they gave me the ax.

After that, I tried to be a Tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it, mainly be

cause it was a sew-sew job.

Next, I tried working in a Muffler Factory, but that was too exhausting.

Then, I tried to be a Chef - figured it would add a little spice to my life,

but I just didn't have the thyme.

I attempted to be a Deli Worker, but any way I sliced it I couldn't cut the

mustard.

My best job was a Musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.

I studied a long time to become a Doctor, but I didn't have any patience.

Next, was a job in a Shoe Factory. I tried but I just didn't fit in.

I became a Professional Fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net

income.

I managed to get a good job working for a Pool Maintenance Company, but the

work was just too draining.

So then I got a job in a Workout Center, but they said I wasn't fit for the

job.

After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a

Historian - until I realized there was no future in it.

My last job was working in Starbucks, but I eventually quit because it was

always the same old grind.

So, I tried Retirement and, you know what? I'M PERFECT FOR THE JOB!

:lol::lol:

A man walks into a doctor's office. He has a cucumber up his nose, a carrot in his left ear and a banana in his right ear.

"What's the matter with me?" he asks the doctor.

The doctor replies, "You're not eating properly."

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

There are just too many to post, so I'll recommend using the search feature here to find them all.

      Like you, I was a silent celiac. I was largely asymptomatic insofar as GI symptoms were concerned. The first real evidence, retrospectively, of having celiac disease was the development of mildly but persistently elevated liver enzymes which initially was discovered when I tried to donate blood at age 37. That was in about 1987. Of course, my PCP checked me for all the hepatitis varieties but cold not find any reason for the elevated liver enzymes. I was also slipping into mild anemia by the time I was in my late 40's and had developed some occasional loose stool and oily stool. My PCP had no clue. I was really concerned about the liver enzymes as they were steadily increasing though never got to alarming levels. My PCP threw his hands up and said during one office visit, "I don't know why your enzymes are elevated. Maybe that's just the way your are." Well, that was not a satisfactory answer. This was about year 2000 and it was not well known that one of the atypical symptoms of celiac disease is elevated liver enzymes. In fact, it happens in about 18% of celiacs. Finally, I booked an appointment with a GI doc who tested me right away for celiac disease and I was positive, both for blood work and biopsy. Within a few months of eliminating gluten my liver enzymes had normalized. But it took 13 years to get a diagnosis. And by that time I had developed osteopenia. Sorry for the long-winded story. My point is, celiac disease can be very slow in developing. By the time symptoms manifest themselves to the extent where they get your attention such that you seek testing, much damage can already be done to body systems. You and your son are very smart to be be pursuing this thing early in his life and let me encourage you, that whatever the next round of testing reveals, you continue to get testing done on a regular basis.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      Initially I was going to re-post all of the threads that have people stating they drink or recommend RO water.  There are just too many to post, so I'll recommend using the search feature here to find them all.  There are currently 4 pages worth of posts with people mentioning or recommending RO water/filtration systems.  Granted, some of the search results are from this thread. For me, it causes major issues with my stomach and as mentioned, there is no way I will ever intentionally drink it again.  As we know, everyone's body is different.  I am certainly not looking for a debate, but do highly advise anyone considering RO water to do their own research. Consider starting with this Google search:  Is reverse osmosis water safe to drink long term?
