After 14 hrs at 70 mph from Scotland (km??? :unsure: what in hell?? :lol: ) they had to fetch the winch to get me out :rolleyes:

Okay, so it is time for some maths. Rounding to integers:

120 kmh = 74 mph

70 mph = 113 kmh

So Canucks drive a bit faster than Brits. :o Of course, we also drive on the correct right side of the road. :lol:

Phun Phact about the Oracle: did you all know that he has DRIVEN to or though all 49 of the contiguous Yoo-nye-ted Staytes? That's right. He's been to Hawaii also, just couldn't drive there. :P

Quite impressive.........wonder how many Americans have actually done this? Small phraction.....

But HEY!!!!....we can drive (on the left) at 113kmph (74mph) BUT the UK is riddled with speed cameras (the max is 70mph on motorways highways :rolleyes: ).........we pay dear for misdemeanours

Amanda, I'm thinking about you and your dad. Hope he is doing ok, check in when you can.

Susie, your posts last night about Emoticongate cracked me up!!!!!! Me thinks someone was pheeling rather Manchester-ish about the situation!!!!

Other sillies met this weekend. See avatar.

Awwwwww Laura :wub: How sweet! How is Sammy doing?

Love all the new avatars, and what a great photo of WardGirl (and kitteh)!!!! So nice to put a face to the name of peter's wonderful other half Jacquie!!!

OH! Soooozie.......speaking of attractive men: I kept looking at my brother up on the stage at the dance last night, watching him pound away on the drums, singing out electrifying harmonies, throwing his drumsticks around, catching them behind his back, etc., and thinking, "How can we get him together with Psilly Psooozie?"

SOMEDAY!!

What a sight to behold, the drumstick stylings of Emily's brother whilst surrounded by his family in tribal dress :lol:

And yes, what PHUN a Silly Set-Up, a Silly match made in Silly heaven would be!!

Been in a funk lately......really do think it is me vitamins....or lack thereof (been forgetting to take them, recently)

Oh Lisa, we must get you de-funked!!

Radio made me think of one of y'all:

Back in the back

Of a cadillac

Number one with a bullet I'm a power pack

<youknowwhoyouare>

Oooh! Oooh! I know this one.....it's the Beeve!!!!!

Tom, yer whole post :lol:

Do you think it is too late to contact either (or both) of the candidates with our portentous forum issue?

It is possible that this has NOT come to your attention; therefore, in brief, a sudden and enormous change has occurred in the large American voting area of Psillyville. In fact, this realm is international, which makes it all the more vital to put things right, for the eyes of Canada and Great Britain are turned to the U.S. and need reassurance that they will be respected and supported under new leadership.

Emoticons have been suddenly restricted, without forewarning or explanation. Many citizens rely on these characters for their day-to-day communication, and find themselves deeply handicapped, often unable to function socially..... . . .

If there's time, let's send this off. One of them is bound to listen. If ANYONE can fix this emergency, it's the President of the United States.

BAH HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JULES!!! Push-ups?? Press-ups???....dem ALL evil

AND chidlings is just a word I made up for children (err I forget meselph sometimes *giggle*)

And pull-ups!!!! Everything ups!! All the evil doings of Sven :lol:

Ooooh!!! Made up words amuse me so! I lurve "chidlings" and shall use it in conversation in the future :D

How is it being back from Sctoland Nik, have you settled back into the daily grind yet?

Peter!!!! How fabulous!! This is my dream and on my bucket list!! I want to visit every state and and experience all the "must see" places in every state.

Well pholks, maybe it was Janet and her revival of the phrase "cool beans" that planted a little seed in me wee brain, but I went crazy and had beans and peanuts. I made the most delish enchiladas (containing refried pinto beans) and then peanut butter cookies......twas a Legume-O-Rama this weekend and I am paying for it, BIG TIME.

But I do have to say I enjoyed every last bite (the enchiladas were PHAB!!)

No word as yet from our Amanda. . . . ...hope she checks in soon. I do hate when one of us is living through a bad situation, and we have no way of knowing how they are. . . ... :(

Well!!!! It has happened!! To me, no less. . . . . I am currently sitting here, in a state of fluxing, conflicting emotion - - SO much is happening mentally, here, and I have the new, dreaded knowledge that I can no longer be supported through emoticon usage while I converse here in Psillyville.

I am experiencing: waves of relief and happiness :D:) (eye appointment was superb - - non-diabetic eye results!), some self-satisfied contentment B) , real affection for my specialist, as we have a long history with one another :wub: , a helping of unease and confusion due to the vision-altering nature of the many prescription drops :wacko: , anger at the parking ticket :angry:<_< , great humour at the sight of my eye makeup when i arrived home (Bah! Tammy Faye-city) :lol: . .. . .

See?! I'm already at EIGHT emoticons, and I'm feeling so much more than this. . . . . ...

I will have to attempt to curtail all activities during the day that may evoke more than one emotion.

Ooooh!!! Made up words amuse me so! I lurve "chidlings" and shall use it in conversation in the future

Sounds like a hot breakfast mash-up, dudd'n it?

Young man, you eat those chidlings, before I get meself really angry. . .....

So.....I'm in a public restroom yesterday, minding me own business, and THERE in this white room wif big flourescent lights and an even bigger mirror......I get a mind numbing, horrifying view of me roots!!

AAAGGGHH!! I get a mind-numbing, horrifying view of me roots when I look in the mirror and suddenly see the crook of my mother's eyebrow, the cowlick in her hair, the drooping of her lids, all reflecting back at me. . . .....gaaaaaahhhh, my roots!!!! There they are!!. .. . ..

To keep yer mind occupied, picture the two of us sleeping in opposite corners of Nik's living room whilst the rest of the gang is fanning Jess and bringing her grapes on the divan

Just to remind everyone (and make you all jealous) . . . me family is still planning a trip to Washington State for Spring Break . . . part of the time to be spent in Seattle. Besides Jess, doesn't Colleen (CruelShoes) live out that way, too??

Holy Precipitation Catwoman! That's the week I was gonna be in Portland!!!!

One second, we're talking about a highly specific, new, potentially impactful, technical issue on the ESD structure of a new design when made w/ the new 65nanometer technology :wacko: , and the next he's off on an amazingly spot-on relevant story from the old not-so-Bogarty Bogart movie Open Original Shared Link.

Loooonnnnng trip back. . . it is 4 1/2 hours along one long stretch of very tedious highway - - 4 hours if you're doing 120 km/h.

Well, I don't want to monkey-wrench all the calculations or invalidate all the comments (or do I?), but Em's trip was 12.5% longer than if they'd gone 120kph.

Who's w/ me on Em's avg speed being 8/9ths of 120kph?

Update

My dad had his heart cath this morning- he has two blockages and a bunch of other problems. He needs open heart surgery/bypass ASAP. So he had wanted to go to Hershey to my hospital to have any procedures done and now he is saying well maybe I will stay here....listening to his family dr who has not a damn clue of what is going on. I am trying to get it through his head that he needs to be at a hospital where the advancements are there and they are on the cutting edge. My hospital is well known in the cardiac department. So now I am stuck in limbo at my moms not sure whether to go home or stay here.....all up in the air and so much needs to be decided on. I know if the surgery takes place here he doesn't have a good of a chance as he would having it done at a larger hospital. So now I am waiting....and sadly I feel as if my life has stopped....there is no forward and no backward......

thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think going back to your GI isn't a bad idea - my visits to the GI did not stop following my diagnosis as I had annoying issues on and off for some time.  Thankfully he is a fantastic GI, with  a great sense of humour, so it wasn't a chore to see him again although I'd rather not have had to, obviously!  But I needed my mind to be put at rest as my symptoms didn't seem to go away overnight as I'd hoped they would.  Initially I recall he recommended I went Dairy Free for three weeks, and he told me it would take that time to see an effect.  At that time, even lactose free milk went straight through me, so it is important, I would say, to even avoid that during a Dairy Free trial. My ongoing symptoms were bloating which did respond a bit to that trial.   However, within about 18 months there was a return to a very sore stomach, plus various aches and pains.   It turned out some gluten was sneaking in with my iron supplement (I was buying Floradix instead of Floravital), but I also think the dishwasher, the oven and eating out were contributors, too. Before my numbers normalised (from memory, about eight years!) I had several follow up appointments and a few more tests, but things gradually did get better.  Having read many accounts on this forum over the years, I don't think it is uncommon for symptoms to get a bit worse before getting better, that was certainly the case with me.  Your gut is damaged so you may well have issues digesting other food in the short term. But do try to be as scrupulously gluten free as you can possibly be as a first step, and I'd definitely try a three week Dairy Free trial.   Your villi because they are damaged are not able to create the lactase required to digest dairy at this time so you may well see some improvement if you come off dairy for a while.  Perhaps keeping a food diary of what you eat, where you eat it, whilst a bit onerous to do, will help identify foods that are causing issues.  For a while, apart from oats, I found peas, lentils and soya products hugely aggravating.  Things should calm down.

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      mystery gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/  I didn't notice any gluten ingredients in Kirkland Almond non-dairy beverage, however it does contain Locust Bean Gum. Some gums may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:

      For the past few months, I've been taking several supplements (a multi-vitamin, an iron supplement, a vitamin C supplement, and a magnesium supplement), all of which state that they are gluten free on the label.
