Does he live in FL or is that beach bum remark entirely attire-related?

He's lived there most of his life.........and it's not just his attire.............his hair is all the same length........almost to his shoulders.........and thick............always in his face :rolleyes::D

& the story behind it!

Tom --what an amazing article. I'd heard you speak of your brother but didn't really now the story behind it.

Love the whole idea of the ....bench you can go and sit on..... :)

Had a lovely dinner with my parents, and it is true....I am SO unbelievably blessed to still have them both here, both in their eighties, and both mentally sharper than anyone around....sharper than ME, fer sure.....

My dad is fading physically, however. :(:( Parkinson's. His gait is very slow, his tremors are quite bad down one side, and yet here he is....this old man, shaking and trundling along, and when he opens his mouth it brings tears to my eyes, because the room is suddenly filled with his booming broadcaster's voice, crackling with wit and energy.....such a dichotomy. It is searingly painful to see him decline quickly in the ravages of his illness, and have his sharp, cool mind raging against it all....

Sorry....I digress from all things silly....Mom and Dad just left, and it's all fresh in my heart......

Ah, Emily, won't make you tear up. Just happy for you.

Yes it's sad to see the decline but you'll be there for them and that's what counts....

I"m off again......keep running around to visit people so as not to have to be here :(

Happy for you Susie Q !

What ever it takes to get you out of the house :D

Went to visit him last fall. He was bragging about the great deal he got on the name-brand shorts he was wearing.....................he didn't realize that they said *sample* across the top of his butt!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

What a riot.......... reminds me of when my hubby was protesting his 'independent nature' when he was working for the gov....he grew a pony tail.

He had to cut it off when his arthritic shoulder and elbow would allow him to reach up to put the rubber band on it. :lol: How old is your dad. God i hope we aren't your dad's age. :o:lol:

ok Patti......let's see if this works.

Oh Emmy, honey, if love could only make our wishes happen. Your dad's body is only here to hold his gift to the world. It's only the wrapping paper that's getting tattered; the amazing being that is your father is still, and will always, be here. Not only has he given joy and laughter to untold numbers of his fans, he's given us you. And you have given us Jack. The world is a better place because of him.

And you.

Morning, Silly Ones!

I was just reading the results of the Flugtag competition in the paper. We didn't stay for the entire event, and missed the big winning team from Vancouver's performance. Their pilot flew a huge craft in the shape of a NYC yellow cab about 100 metres above the Ottawa River before it crashed into the drink. Second prize went to a flying lighthouse I was thinking of you, Amanda! :) Such, simple, plebian things that make up our family life...... :lol:

Went to visit him last fall. He was bragging about the great deal he got on the name-brand shorts he was wearing.....................he didn't realize that they said *sample* across the top of his butt!!!!!

:lol:

....I often feel like a sample...... . .of what, or whom, I haven't deciphered as yet.... . .. :lol::unsure:

Fathers and phunny clothing......

How many of you have lived with the abomination of white socks with oxfords? Mygawd, the absolute bane of my mother's existence, and something she stopped my father from doing well before I was born. But I have heard about it constantly thoughout my life, during the many times we would happen by a man wearing this dreaded combination, often with dark pants (the crowning heinosity)....Mom would ALWAYS quietly comment to me, her voice strained with consternation, "Dear gawd. That man does not have a responsible wife to set him straight on such paramount things".........

:rolleyes:

I'M probably closer to YOUR age! :P My dad is, I believe, 70 years old.

Wow, Lisa! Your dad is SO young! Double lucky, you is! :)

.....Is he a Scorpio, by chance?

:wub::wub::wub:

Gaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh. I have a little whispering voice right now, barely able to speak. Thank you SO MUCH for this, Jess. Your perfect, wise words will be passed along to Jack as I will show them to him. This is fitting for your poignant message of passing along life's great things.

Dad is a tremendous gift, simply with old, tattered wrapping. 'Tis so true. :)

OH NOW I get IT though the poop signs we are always looking for signs ... like if you blow your nose you can't throw it right away ...you gotta glance at it like ....what ???? that came out of my nose...NO WAY........ , thAt couLD come in handy ....I WAS THINKING OF like when they put me through all this stool samples and all .. well i do want to get to the bottom of all this... but .... i guess they ment BOttOm . well O.K. ... we do throw around the phrase alot ....study poop.

Ohhhhmaaagaaaaaaaaad......! :lol::lol:

Jo, I cannot help but be completely swept into your stream-of-consciousness musings.....Have you read Joyce's Ulysses? You remind me so of Stephen Dedalus- - phunee, convoluted, magical...... :D

Yes, this looking-into-a-kleenex-after-blowing is a macabre act that confounds me. I blow, scrunch up and immediately throw away.

Never had to examine own fecal matter. Thank GAWD. :rolleyes:<_<

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the culprit to be blamed for many heart attacks and things like that they are very small round particles that transport fats. You can have a low overall cholesterol reading and most of it be healthy cholesterol and have a ton of lipids and there's nothing you can do to change the lipid count. High number of lipids is very dangerous.   I'm going on statins is extremely dangerous if you ask me it's just completely my opinion, because I have seen so many of my elderly friends bleed to death internally because of the statins. I mean you wouldn't take all the oil and grease out of your car or a motorcycle and then try to drive it that way would you? You see that's what statins do they remove all of your bodies fats and it doesn't matter whether it's healthy fats or a lousy fats. It removes all of them and then your body can't function properly. You have to have fats to keep your skin supple and to stay warm. Your body also needs fats to digest & process certain nutrients, amino acids & vitamins.   Your brain is composed of fat so is that something you really want to remove with a pill every morning and night?   The thing about statins is that they also make the blood vessels and capillaries permeable. So this is how my friends who were on cardiac medication for a long time and statins ended up bleeding internally to death.   If you want to make sure that your heart is healthy, take odorless garlic at night and magnesium, vitamin K & calcium.

      It's also a symptom of EPI.

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info
