OMG...seriously, last week I barely got any sleep cuz of this site! I couldnt keep up...I couldnt go to bed if I hadnt caught up....I dont even know how I managed to eat. :unsure:

Oh...and a couple weeks ago we had some technical difficulties with the computer....I couldnt get online for a couple days. I went through withdrawl. :(

I'm glad you enjoy it bc it probably won't stop since we're both lazy. Plus, I'll be going to college soon.

Both lazy? You're lazy, I'm sick!! Before I got sick, I was hardly lazy!! :)

OMG julie!!

I LOVE Grease 2!! I think I saw if first before I ever saw Grease....I loved it...have seen it too many times to count. I probably know it by heart. Because I saw it first, I never really liked the original Grease half as much. Nobody else gets this!! Everyone looks at me like I'm off my rocker cuz I like the one with Michelle Pfiefer better.....sue me! :rolleyes:

The songs you named arent my favs though...I liked "I'll be Your Girl For All Seasons", "Cool Rider" and the one at the end...when they're at the luau....cant think of it right now.

Oh Rachel, this makes me absolutely giddy!!!

I sort of downplayed my love for Grease 2 because I thought I would sound like a nerd or something :lol: . But I LOVE LOVE LOVE Grease 2. It was the same for me, I saw Grease 2 before I saw the original Grease so I didn't have it to compare it to.

I had a major crush on the lead actor, Maxwell Caulfield.

I love the songs Back To School Again, Score Tonight, Cool Rider, Girl For All Season's, Turn Back The Hands of Time, We'll Be Together, Rock-A-Hula-Luau (the song at the luau)

Yes go rent it Carla, and join in on the love for Grease 2 :lol:

Have a great time you guys at grandmas :)

Thanks Andrea, for wondering where I was :D

For you grease 2 fans, I always liked the original better. I saw the original first and many, many times. I thought grease 2 was good but was disappointed it didn't have anything to do with the first grease.

Andrea, I think, like Carla pointed out, if you saw the original Grease first you were probably disappointed with Grease 2. For those of us who saw Grease 2 first, we didn't have the original to compare it to, and for us it was a more modern/updated version of our time that we could relate to. Imo anyway.

Grease 2 took place a decade later, same school, same groups (Pink Ladies, Greasers) just different faces. Plus Frenchie was still there, and her cousin was Michael, the foreign exchange student, aka "Cool Rider" :lol:

**edit, actually maybe it was the same decade, just a different senior class.

Soooo cool that you love this movie too! :D

Turn Back the Hands of Time...I cant believe I forgot that one! Thats my second fav.....after Girl For All Seasons.

The song I was referring to was We'll Be Together.....not the Rock a Hula Luau....I dont really care for that song. Wasnt We'll Be Together near the end...I thought it was at the luau....maybe not. :unsure:

I wanna see it now....its been a long time. :P

Today was the most pittiful time I've conversed with you over the computer and I was sick. And also, in a certain way, I'm not lazy. I do a lot of work....I'm just a little tired when it comes to talking :) So I pick and choose what I want to say out loud. :rolleyes:

I've never seen Grease 2, I only saw Grease and I LOVED it :D I also have the soundtrack :)

Yes, de ja vu :lol:

Don't get me wrong, I like the original Grease, but I just have a special place in my heart for Grease 2. Michael was so dreamy.

I guess everyone is really partial to their favorite version!

Yeah, Rachel "We'll Be Together" was at the end, after Michael reveals himself at the luau, when magically it is nighttime in a blink of an eye :lol:

I actually just watched it last month with my nieces, they played Grease and Grease 2 back to back on the Family Channel :D

Wait, we talked about Grease on Saturday night? I must have missed that.....

I am always one step behind :lol:

.....or two

Dave, nice to see that you're not a complete town idiot.....you're still smart enough to find the town ;)B)

Thanks, I guess ;) And in case you didn't know, I found more than this new town :lol:

It's good to see you found us Dave.

Rachel,

Why do I think his bark is worse then his bite? Afterall he didn't say anything about the orange jug.

:D

and....

I bite as hard as loud as I bark! haha... I did say something about the jug..... she had to explain how she carried it out to the car without me or anyone else noticing the gallon jug! :ph34r::lol:

:lol::lol:

Yeah....I will need at least 6 weeks after carrying the alien baby around for 4 years!!

I would grant you a permanent leave if you told me you were having an alien baby!

Oh...he brought up the orange jug thing too. :rolleyes: I went back into the pages of the OMG thread last night.....never a good thing going back. I was lost in the thread for awhile but eventually found some stuff. OMG....I should not be held accountable for things I said while under the influence of sweet potatoes and yams! :ph34r:

excuses :rolleyes:

LMAO!!

As a matter of fact I think its a GREAT job for the town idiot!! :lol::lol::lol:

I know he'll be really excited about it too! :lol:

Andrea...Can you add this to The Dave's job list?? He will be the towns poop hauler. :D

Kind of a punishment for going back into the pages of the OMG thread.... :P

BS! using your presidential powers to make me pickup the doo doo?

:lol: I can't wiat to see his response to this :lol: I hope he visits Rachelville tonight.

B)

Rachel consider it done.

Dave (The): Town Idiot with the side job of keeping the tumbleweeds at bay; Rule Breaker; Construction Worker; Firefighter; Town Handler of Natural Fertilizer for the Gardens

Do you know I was only in the 'ville for like 4 days....then dissappeared, and I'm still made fun of more than anyone else? Whoa! At least I bring humor (with me or at me) to the group :)

:lol::lol::lol:

Hmmmm, maybe you should help out Dave with his duties.

Any F-R-I-E-N-D-S fans? The one where Chandler has the interview, and his future employer asks about his duties. Chandler explains how he almost cracked up in the interview because his new boss was asking about his "doodies"...ok I'm a freak...I know :blink:

Yes this should be a decree...anyone who goes back should incur punishment, lol. (Okay, maybe only TheDave!) :lol:

Thanks for the support....I'd expect more from a fellow NorCalifornian! :P

:huh: Slacker, the 1st was so much better than the 2nd! Everyone knows sequels are just desperate attempts for more $$$. What are you thinking? :rolleyes:

Oh....and for the technical side....since everyone can now do multiple quotes....let's see who can figure out how to bypass the "too many emotions rule". This reply has 45 :D

:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P

I missed the lab lady who thought I was like 10 and was so gentle and kind....she gave me a lollipop and a barbie sticker.

:lol: You do look like you're 10 huh? Never really realized it....

Not this ogre in a lab coat...all she gave me was a big bruise. :angry:

:lol:

How scary is that??!! I'm kind of freaked out....I dont like her and my arm's already sore. How am I gonna climb rocks on Friday with sore arms. :(

You'll be ok ;) You should mostly be using your legs....and your arms to help me (belay)...hehe speaking of an ogre :huh:

I saw Grease on Broadway when it was first out in 1970's. The movie diverted from the original play in a lot of ways and for me the movie was not the "real thing." Grease 2 just underscored how Hollywood can take a good idea an ruin it with additional parts.

The Broadway show had the "Sandra Dee" song but also made other references to being naughty as a teenager in the 1950's. The movie only alludes to this but the play was "out there." (I am not advocating being naughty as a teenager, just reporting how Broadway had more flexibility as there are really no censors like movies (have/had).

One of my favorities, off Broadway and it's gone now after like 30 some odd years was The "Fantastiks".

I did see a Bob Fosse thing that I absolutely hated and couldn't wait until it was through but I don't remember the name of it, it wasn't Chicago. I would have left in the middle of it but I was with some relatives who were from out of town and felt it would have confused them to leave them in theatre alone.

Oh, I love Grease! My daughter loves it too & I guess it is okay that she watches it because at her age she has no idea about the real meaning about some of the songs & what they are saying. I took her to see a play of Grease & she had a blast. I went with my mom, grandma, daughter, aunt & great aunt. Kind of a girls thing & we all loved it.

I'm a huuuuuuge Grease fan! Yeah, the dirtiest part in Greas the movie that alluded to the dirtier play, was when John Travolta ran around with saran wrap...it was a larger part of the song in the play. I won't say what the saran wrap is for, but it ain't playing safe! :ph34r:

I won't watch Grease 2 on principle, just like I won't watch any Bring it On sequels...it ruins the first one. Actually, any movie/show that tries to come back with a different cast is just bad news :rolleyes:

OH

I went back to the hair lady yesterday...she tried to put another color over it to even it out (my natural color, actually) and it looks worse. So I have to go get it stripped today, and then wait 24 hours to color it again :blink: DH's grandparents are coming into town tomorrow, too. Not good. :ph34r:

Dave,

Why you always sneaking around at night? :lol:

Chelsea,

Sorry about your hair.....that sounds like a nightmare.

Julie,

Your hair is beautiful, why would you need to highlight it. Chelsea's was beautiful at her wedding too....I guess I'll never understand why people want to mess with hair that is already beautiful.

Donna,

How's the chocolate (I'm so said I need to refrain) withdrawal going?

I'm currently watching the Price is Right.

It has inspired me. Rachelville needs a field trip. I think we should go to the Price is Right.

Everybody buys/makes a celiac t-shirt. Wear them to the show. We create awareness. We have a blast.

Maybe somebody would even get on and bob would ask what celiac is??

I'm feeling a little verclempt.......here's a topic......rachelville on the price is right.......ok discuss.....

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref.

      Family education

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
