This guy walks into a bar, pulls out a tiny piano and stool, and a tiny little man. The tiny man sits down, and starts to play the piano. “Hey, what's that?” says the barman. “Ya see, I found this magic lamp, rubbed it, made a wish, I got a this little man who plays piano.” “Can I try?” The man agrees and gives the barman the lamp and a minute later, a million ducks fill the room.

“Ducks? I didn't wish for a million ducks, I wished for a million bucks!”

“Ya think I really wished for a twelve inch pianist?”

. . .

OMGosh, I was laughing out loud at this, my little girls asked what was so funny, I said nothing as I'm wiping my tears from my eyes!

A woman is walking down a beach and finds a magic lamp.

She rubs the lamp and a genie appears.

He tells her she has three wishes BUT whatever she wishes for her husband gets twice that much.

Her first wish a million dollars.

She gets it but her husband gets two.

Her second wish is a mansion with a sports car in the garage, again hubby gets the same, times two.

The genie asks for her third and after thinking long and hard she asks:

I would like for you to beat me half to death.

Sorry I used to share this with my CPR students. The ladies would laugh but the guys just rolled thier eyes. :P

Thanks for the laughs! I'm still in the middle of unpacking boxes (and will be for days...weeks...agh!) and needed some laughs :)

The Cowboy and the Genie

A modern day cowboy has spent many days crossing the Texas plains without water. His horse has already died of thirst.

He's crawling through the sand, certain that he has breathed his last, when all of a sudden, he sees an object sticking out of the sand

several yards ahead of him.

He crawls to the object, pulls it out of the sand, and discovers what looks to be an old brief case.

He opens it and out pops a genie But this is no ordinary genie.

She is wearing an IRS ID badge and a dull gray dress.

There's a calculator in her pocketbook. She has a pencil tucked behind one ear.

"Well, cowboy," says the genie... "You know how I work. You have three wishes."

"I'm not falling for this." Says the man. "I'm not going to trust an IRS genie,"

"What do you have to lose? You've got no transportation, and it looks like you're a goner anyway!"

The man thinks about this for a minute, and decides that the genie is right.

"OK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with plenty of food and drink."

***POOF***

The cowboy finds himself in the most beautiful oasis he has ever seen.

And he is surrounded with jugs of wine and platters of delicacies.

"OK, cowpoke, what's your second wish."

"My second wish is that I were rich beyond my wildest dreams."

***POOF***

The man finds himself surrounded by treasure chests filled with rare gold coins and precious gems.

"OK, cowpuncher, you have just one more wish. Better make it a good one!"

After thinking for a few minutes, the man says.. "I wish that no matter where I go, beautiful women will want and need me."

***POOF***

He is turned into a tampon.

The moral of the story:

If the government offers you anything, there's going to be a string attached.

NEW BOARD RULE: IF YOU DON"T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO BUT COMPLAIN< KEEP YOUR GLUTEN FREE PIE HOLE SHUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I am sure I am going to get warned for that but I've HAD IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). I'm sorry Scott, I know I'm a moderator but I will accept the consequences. I am tired of people seeking out things to complain about.

My mom always said, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." Lynne just says "Oh my, how nice!"

I'm going to share my most embarassing moments from my younger, crazy days with you:

1. wiped out on stage in front of my ENTIRE high school in the middle of a skit. For leverage, I grabbed the curtain and brought that down too.

2. Walked across a formal dance with my dress tucked into my pantyhose after going to the rest room. My date was trying to tell me but I was REALLY mad at him so I just kept walking. He decided the only way to get my attention was to grab the back of my dress- strapless. He pulled it down. Yes, I was still mad at him.

3. Went to a bar in Boston after a Bruin's game in my young 20's because I heard that the young hockey players went there after games. Making my way through a very crowded bar I didn't notice that my blouse had come unbuttoned. And that still wasn't enough!

4. Fell into a bush hiking down Mount washington with skis on my back. was tired, hit a rock and just keeled over off the trail with about 20 really cute hiking guys laughing at me. Yes, one stopped to pull me out of the wreckage.

frankly, I'm glad to be older except that now all my embarassing moments involve GI stuff. :ph34r:

How funny!

I had the flu and was in the high school after hours, the entire boys' soccer team, who won state that year, was sitting in the lobby of the East wing, I was normally in the West wing, a mirror image, so being deliriously ill, I walked into the boys' bathroom right off the lobby in front of the team ... I took one look at the urinals on the wall and stood there for a second trying to figure out a graceful way to get out of this. Of course, when I walked out, they all burst out laughing!

Why are blonde jokes so short?

So that men can remember them :lol::lol::lol:

samking72 Rookie

A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the

loan officer.

She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks and

needs to borrow $5,000.

The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of

security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to

a new Mercedes Benz SL 500. The car is parked on the street

in front of the bank. She has the title, and everything

checks out.

The bank agrees to accept the car collateral for the loan.

The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh

at the blonde for using a $110,000 Benz as collateral

against a $5,000 loan.

An employee of the bank then proceeds to drive the Benz into

the bank's underground garage and parks it there.

Two weeks later, the blonde returns. She repays the $5,000

and the interest, which comes to $15.41.

The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very happy to have had

your business, and this transaction has worked out very

nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we

checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire.

What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

The blonde replies, "Where else in New York City can I park

my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be

there when I return?"

Finally, a smart blonde joke.

My eighty-two year old Dad (who has himself spent his life making people laugh as a radio and television performer) tells this story of the time a few months ago when he was walking through their neighborhood park and came upon old Sid, a friend he's made through these strolls. Sid, ninety-five and a widower, was sitting on the bench, head in hands, crying like a baby.

"Sid! Sid, what's the matter?!" my dad quickly sat down beside him.

"Oh, Les", he began, the tears streaming, "It's terrible. Last week I met the most beautiful, blonde, thirty-year old woman. We spent some time together. She's single, intelligent, witty...and she's dying to go out with me".

There was a pause. "Well, Sid, that sounds TERRIFIC! I don't understand...why are you crying?"

"Oh, Les...I've forgotten where she lives!"

A blonde got a phone call from the replacement window company that replaced her windows the previous year. They told her it had been a year since the windows were replaced, yet she still hadn't paid the bill. She replied, "Well, you're going to have to talk to the salesman about that, he said that after a year they would pay for themselves!!"

A nun was laying in her bathtub taking a nice relaxing bath when all of a sudden she heard a knock at her door... Who is it? she called out... "Blind Man" came the response... the nun thinking about it a minute and contemplating her naked state in the tub, came to the conclusion that if he was blind what would it matter, so she said "come in"... so the man walks in carrying a set of new blinds for the window, looks at her with surprise in the tub and says "where would you like these? and oh, nice tits"

How about the nun chasing the priest all around the church.......She finally caught him by the organ. :blink:

      I had the test done by one of the specialist through second pcp I had only a few months because he was saying I wasn't.Even though Im positive HLA-DQ2 .My celiac is down played.I am with new pcp, seeing another girl doctor who wants to do another breathe test next month though Im positive sibo this year.I have high blood pressure not sure if its pain from sciatica or sibo, ibs or hidden gluten. Im in disability limbo and I should have never been a bus driver because im still suffering and trying to heal with zero income except for my husband. This isnt fare that my health is dictating my living and having ti beg for being revalidation of my disregarded celiac disease. Its an emotional roller coaster I don't want to be on and the medical made it worse.New pcp new gi, exhausted, tired and really fed up. GI doctor NOT girl..

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
