:lol: :lol: :lol: YETI POETRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There once was a Yeti from Spain

His inseam was giant it was claimed

Yet when Emily measured him

It accidentally pleasured him

And now he no longer

Complains!

To some it may seem,

The point's the inseam,

That measurement down to the ankle.

But I must submit,

In truth and to wit,

The subject is that which does dangle.

:P

Ahhh! Hilarious, Bev...I OFTEN think of our Frisking the Wookie thread, one of the funniest, I would say, in recent memory. I believe, no surprise, that Richard began that particular madness, as well...

Emily now a yeti-pleasurer! Mygawd, just how many hats can I be expected to wear? :lol:

Yeti confetti, thrown into the air,

From a great white beast, with billowing hair,

He lopes down the aisle, to a sweet wedding chorus,

And ends his parade,

In the arms of Chuck Norris.

Okay, Bev...you'll be with me on this one: The new phrase to coin for 2007...

LET THE YETI LEAD.

We have to officially define it:

To act on a hunch:

"She booted me out...she could somehow tell that I'd been with someone else. She let the yeti lead..."

OR

To lose all sense of propriety:

"Man, lookit the loser she's making out with! Talk about letting the Yeti lead!"

OR

A suggestive invitation:

"C'mon...follow me. Let my Yeti lead".

OR

To have a sudden bathroom crisis:

"Gaaaack!! Outta my way...Yeti leading...Yeti leading...!"

Let's see......it could be "The Yeti was leading that parade."

As in:

"She booted me out...she could somehow tell that I'd been with someone else. The yeti was leading that parade.."

"Gaaaack!! Outta my way...Yeti leading my parade...Yeti leading my parade...!"

OR it could mean a place where lots off BS (poop) gets slung around!

As in:

The Yeti led the parade in that presidential debate.

OR

We had a couple of drinks and let the Yeti lead THAT parade.

Or seductive:

Let my yeti lead your parade, baby!

Emily & Jess have incapacitated meeeeeee!

Way to start a subtopic Em!! <can i call u em?>

I'm glad I'm not still at my coffeehouse. Earlier I'm sure some there had to think I was out of my mind, barely containing what could've been minutes of wild giggles.

(Hey!!! I guess this means the perfuming effects weren't so bad after all! Yay! :) )

I'd love to add to the "Let the Yeti Lead" definitions & examples but I need to calm down and probably eat. <phew! catching breath finally>

Edit P.S. OMG Bev too! The tears have restarted!

Oh Daughter_of_TheSea!!!!!!!

I'd think an artfully arranged variety would be purrrrrrrrrr-fect. (Yeti's are known to almost purr w/ the right under-chin scritch)

But I must admit, I'd yield to the taste of someone more aesthetically inclined.

Plenty o' Yeti to go around!!!

P.S. Do you also have a bucket of shark's teeth? My dad used to live in Venice FL and would find them all the time.

P.P.S. I still can't try to add to the "Let the Yeti Lead" theme w/out near incapacitive (incapaciTAtive?) laughter . . . . :lol:

"Stinky hair"????? :emoticon-pinching-own-nose:

Oh no, that won't do at ALL for Amanda's nuptials!! :o

I'll get out the full raingear & walk the hominid beast through the carwash mySELF if that's what it takes!

Stinky? Not on MY watch! I won't allow it!! <_<

And I'm now in that curious position of wanting to clean up some before the professional housecleaners show up tomorrow :lol:

(but is IS mostly just moving things so they have access to what really needs attn)

I would also like my Coon cat to be part of our parade....can someone carry him on a pillow like the king he thinks he is?

And we should get HR Puff n Stuff too!!!!

elye Community Regular

:lol::lol::lol: Excellent...My 10 year-old just huffed off to bed after he sat in front of his math homework, doodling, playing with his calculator, clearly avoiding the job ahead. I had been walking by, telling him to get it done. Finally, I stood up from said computer, walked over to his workdesk and calmly said, "Jack...if you don't lead this yeti....who will?!" Beautiful. Interesting how Yetis and Wookies are noticeably similar, and here both appear...too tired to make any humoUrous sense of this maintenant. Will ponder it in bed. No postulating while I'm asleep! No fair, don't wanna miss a thing! :lol:

      Welcome to the forum, @Cathijean90! I went 13 years from the first laboratory evidence of celiac disease onset before I was diagnosed. But there were symptoms of celiac disease many years before that like a lot of gas. The first laboratory evidence was a rejected Red Cross blood donation because of elevated liver enzymes. They assume you have hepatitis if your liver enzymes are elevated. But I was checked for all varieties of hepatitis and that wasn't it. Liver enzymes continued to slowly creep up for another 13 years and my PCP tested me for a lot of stuff and it was all negative. He ran out of ideas. By that time, iron stores were dropping as was albumin and total protein. Finally, I took it upon myself to schedule an appointment with a GI doc and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive of course. After three months of gluten free eating the liver enzymes were back in normal range. That was back in about 1992. Your story and mine are more typical than not. I think the average time to diagnosis from the onset of symptoms and initial investigation into causes for symptom is about 10 years. Things are improving as there is more general awareness in the medical community about celiac disease than there used to be years ago. The risk of small bowel lymphoma in the celiac population is 4x that of the general population. That's the bad news is.  The good news is, it's still pretty rare as a whole. Yes, absolutely! You can expect substantial healing even after all these years if you begin to observe a strict gluten free diet. Take heart! But I have one question. What exactly did the paperwork from 15 years ago say about your having celiac disease? Was it a test result? Was it an official diagnosis? Can you share the specifics please? If you have any celiac blood antibody test results could you post them, along with the reference ranges for each test? Did you have an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the blood test results?
    • Cathijean90
      I’ve just learned that I had been diagnosed with celiac and didn’t even know. I found it on paperwork from 15 years ago. No idea how this was missed by every doctor I’ve seen after the fact. I’m sitting here in tears because I have really awful symptoms that have been pushed off for years onto other medical conditions. My teeth are now ruined from vomiting, I have horrible rashes on my hands, I’ve lost a lot of weight, I’m always in pain, I haven’t had a period in about 8-9 months. I’m so scared. I have children and I saw it can cause cancer, infertility, heart and liver problems😭 I’ve been in my room crying for the last 20minutes praying. This going untreated for so long has me feeling like I’m ruined and it’s going to take me away from my babies. I found this site googling and I don’t know really what has me posting this besides wanting to hear from others that went a long time with symptoms but still didn’t know to quit gluten. I’m quitting today, I won’t touch gluten ever again and I’m making an appointment somewhere to get checked for everything that could be damaged. Is this an automatic sentence for cancer and heart/liver damage after all these symptoms and years? Is there still a good chance that quitting gluten and being proactive from here on out that I’ll be okay? That I could still heal myself and possibly have more children? Has anyone had it left untreated for this amount of time and not had cancer, heart, fertility issues or liver problems that couldn’t be fixed? I’m sure I sound insane but my anxiety is through the roof. I don’t wanna die 😭 I don’t want something taking me from my babies. I’d gladly take anyone’s advice or hear your story of how long you had it before being diagnosed and if you’re still okay?

      Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out and also to establish the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop it. To develop celiac disease when you have the genetic potential also requires some kind of trigger to turn the latent genes "on", as it were. The trigger can be a lot of things and is the big mystery component of the celiac disease puzzle at this point in time with regard to the state of our knowledge.  Your IGA serum score would seem to indicate you are not IGA deficient and your tTG-IGA score looks to be in the normal range but in the future please include the reference ranges for negative vs. positive because different labs used different reference ranges. There is no industry standard.
    • Scott Adams
      Since nearly 40% of the population have the genes for celiac disease, but only ~1% end up getting it, a genetic test will only tell you that it is possible that you could one day get celiac disease, it would not be able to tell whether you currently have it or not.
    • KDeL
      so much to it.  the genetic testing will help if i don’t have it right? If theres no gene found then I definitely don’t have celiac?  I guess genetic testing, plus ruling out h.pylori, plus gluten challenge will be a good way to confirm yes or no for celiac.
