  1. Ugh . .. .I've been worrying more about a "best efforts not enough" situation. Seems like less of an If than a When. weekend poking the owie! today <she said beautimous!
  2. so it WAS supposed to be Pass!! I still thought it might be Parse the Parcel. Gnikkeigh maye halve tayken Superfluous Spelling to knew hites! Superfluous Misspelling! ( "winding me up" ) P.S. That IS a real game! Somehow one I've never heard hide nor hair of before. "Gather 'round children! Now how'd you like to hold some...
  3. Janet UCLA study! <i smell a new avatar> Jess! Too funny throughout!! :lol: Pass the parcel? Is that like 'pass the buck', in a blame-avoidance manner, wiping away responsibility for ill-conceived gifts? [Aaargh somehow I have an urge to use the 'wiping' in a 'scrapegoat' joke but am stuck thinking it will...
  4. Sounds so christmas-y, even the football (whew did the Giants ever get a gift!) and the cat. We got a great cat when I was 5. Trees ARE for climbing - indoors/outdoors, whatever, a tree's a tree. Every ornament is potential prey. When the two-legged creatures hold up strings of lights & whine about 'untangling', it's obviously a ploy to get the four...
  5. Birthday rain? Dingy even wants birthday rain? Or does the default desire for damp take a holiday when parties & parades are planned? Janet!!! <chuckle-chuckle> Party Hat Dingos!!! Ooh! Ooh!! Poetry day!! Hmmmm .. .. Happy day Happy a Birthday for Soughsie! A Sunday not bluesy; not hangover woozy. If that...
  6. Woohoo!! Is there really REALLY a parade??? woohoo!! (I'd been wondering why that humongous gluten-free cupcake on Main St. in Sillyville had wheels!) Bring on the Dancing Dingos!!

  7. Susie - Saw the Tika thread. Hope she continues to be better on the Rimadyl. And bah, right after a birthday too! Speaking of birthdays . .. ...
  8. Wish I had some info, Amy, but I'm just saying Hi because I grew up next door in Mt. Prospect. Oh wait, I have run into some info. Perhaps you already know, but I saw mention somewhere of a Celiac Support group that meets in ArlHts. Curiously, I think it's the one w/ Park Ridge in the name. I'd bet that some of them know a good Pediatrician. I can...
  9. There's a pretty darn good chance that everyone w/ celiac disease has a leaky gut. Those who go gluten-free in time seem to avoid the full leaky-gut syndrome symptoms. One of the newest 'celiac pills' under testing, AT-1001, actually treats the leaky gut. Leaky gut is often accompanied by candida or some other bacterial overgrowth in the gut. It would...
  10. You snow-bound folks do have some advantages, holiday-spirit-wise. Nah, the other one. Tennis coach wasn't French? Or was he the Bulgarian .. . ... u wanna build a lego-what?????!!
  11. <rising voice> I think we've got a title for CBC's 2nd C.D!! Or would it be BadassSnowPoodles'? Which one are WE again? BSP! P.S. I thought of a real moneymaker! But, shoot!! www.supplementalsmolderingyeti.com is already dominating market share.
  12. Those aren't ALL at Christmas in the Park are they? Pssssst what time on the 19th?
  13. Oops, sorry about the confusion regarding what prompted my apology. My bad. <she said "clandestine cyberchatter"> Heehee whenever I see the store Office Depot, I think Office Despot. ROFL!! :lol: :lol: :lol: OMG and there's MORE!!!! :lol: So much hilarity before I even...
  14. I've always wondered and now I know!! The "I" is for Icicle!! [] <-------- tongue stuck to iPod
  15. (Apologies to Emily and who(m)ever else) MY BAD!!!
  16. <looks around> 1st you make me conceal my identity in a chicken suit but nOOOOOOOOOO that's not enough is it?? <launching operation Incognito Chicken> <refresh for new av>
  17. Glad you're glad, blue eyes, we aim to please. Now . .... .what else we got . .. .. .Yeti gets a prize? For electrodes 'cross the cranium? Isn't that prize enough?
  18. LOL Amanda! Seein' it comin' from a mile away doesn't diminish the laughter one whit!!
  19. 1) fudge & raspberries yum!! I should really check out that agave nectar. Oh, .. . and raspberries. 2) that's my birthday!! It'll be a Happy Toothday too! :) Edit: P.S. How could I forget?? ANDREA!! I just booked my PDX xmas flight!! I'm there Dec 19-28. Waiting to hear which days my nephews will be w/ their dad, then hoping...
  20. Hey, take it up w/ the receptionist at that lab decades ago. Things have changed. Geek chic c'est de rigueur. (if that's incorrect usage, my story is - I just like the way it sounds - and I'm a'stickin' to it.) 21st century?? EVERYone wants a scientist! Or at least someone who can 'defrag' & edit a .cfg file? Or was that just the silicon valley...
  21. hadn't seen it but now I must speculate whether the property owner has some DQ2/8 in 'im, judging by the magnitude of outright silliness!! Re: AMELIORATE Woohoo I knew that one! <tom hates AND is curiously concurrently a tad tickled when forced to look up words used here> <psssst! do not try the 'stew'> ...
  22. I should go edit Wikipedia. The TRUTH is that substance P was one of a GROUP of neuropeptides originally thought to be ONE and named substance Z. Further research determined substance Z was a plethora of distinct polypeptides and the most common, abundant one kept the name substance Z. HowEVah! One pesky polypeptide, particulary difficult to differentiate...
  23. Well I AM of Irish descent, but celiac can happen to ppl of any race. Of course, the chances are higher for those of western euro blood - or is it northwestern? P.S. It's Celiac, not Celiacs.
  24. D'oh!!! I've led the Co-Pooh-bahs astray! Weeeeeeeeelll, it looked like an unknown entity to me!! My favorite part: Naked mole rats lack Substance P and do not feel pain That explains the anguished looks on every tuxedoed mole rat I'VE EVER seen!! I meant to buy some potted herbs by now, but there is reluctance as it would require...
  25. <confused> He was @home & sick? Or was there an inadvertant decompounding of homesick? Ah but you've got another dangerous indigenous beast of your own. "He's the hairy-handed gent, who ran amok in Kent. Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair." Is Nikki anywhere near Kent or Mayfair? "I saw a werewolf drinkin a pina...
