Well, we had a little excitement in the neighborhood this morning. We had some guys come through in the middle of the night and steal everything out of everyone's mailboxes.

Husbands People suck and I was thinking the same thing about the coat ;)

One year, a neighborhood teen was taking packages off everyones door steps. Someone saw him take a box off my porch. It was a couple of turtlenecks from Lands End. Another neighbors son was an FBI agent. He went to the kids house and flashed his badge at him & his mom. Things didn't disappear again. I'm sure he was disappointed by the turtlenecks. :)

Nahhhhh . . . twas just the script, not the drugs. If'n it had been the drugs I would have been majorly p.o.'d as this stuff is about a hundred bucks a bottle which lasts about 5 to 6 weeks.

Supposedly, they have been caught . . . young but not kids (ie, they'll be tried as adults). Meanwhile, mail is being found in snow banks. No tellin' if some good samaratin has mailed the script or if it has fallen apart in the slush somewhere.

That's good. Because it was the mail, they will be prosecuted. UPS or Lands End wouldn't prosecute the kid that took the package from my house. Not worth it.

A little joke...

Santa Claus, like all pilots, gets regular visits from the Federal Aviation Administration, and the FAA examiner arrived last week for the pre-Christmas flight check. In preparation, Santa had the elves wash the sled and bathe all the reindeer. Santa got his log book out and made sure all his paperwork was in order. He knew they would examine all his equipment and truly put Santa's flying skills to the test. The examiner walked slowly around the sled. He checked the reindeer harnesses, the landing gear, and even Rudolph's nose. He painstakingly reviewed Santa's weight and balance calculations for sled's enormous payload. Finally, they were ready for the check ride. Santa got in and fastened his seat belt and shoulder harness and checked the compass. Then the examiner hopped in carrying, to Santa's surprise, a shotgun. "What's that for?!?" asked Santa incredulously. The examiner winked and said, "I'm not supposed to tell you this ahead of time," as he leaned over to whisper in Santa's ear, "but you're gonna lose an engine on takeoff."

I didn't know there was a gluten-free brand. We saw a show recently about how they make popular holiday foods. With the Turduckin, there was stuffing all over the place! The workers took gloved handfuls of it and stuffed the birds but it got all over the place. If they did a gluten-free version, it would need to be done in a completely different room!

There's a kosher place in NY that sells it gluten-free (stuffed with rice or gluten-free bread). Perhaps that's part of the price but duck is pretty pricy on it's own. The guy was going to give me a discount because it was the last raw one he had (they sell them cooked for even more money) but it would have been $169 + shipping. There were a few other places that sold it but it wasn't gluten-free. Still expensive.

I'm wondering if your son asks for crazy and difficult stuff just to see if you will do it. :)

Of course he does because I've always done it. I had him at 40 after thinking I couldn't have children. I would have been different if I had it all over to do. But he is a good kid and doesn't drive me too crazy. As you've come to see I'm a pushover but not just with him. biggrin.gif

Getting into the Christmas spirit??

Last week, young lad aged about 10 playing Away in a Manger on the recorder outside grocery store at mini-mall. Each time I walked past he missed a note badly in the last line. The third time I waited, he missed again and I couldn't help a chuckle. Gave me a glare!! Last time, I waited and he hit it!! He flashed me a triumphant smile and a left some coins in his cap. :D

This week, same store, two 14-15 year-olds with guitars, playing --- wait for it -- Hard Day's Night :unsure: Maybe they were anticipating Santa's heroic feat :lol:

Same day, driving home for about 12 miles on highway behind a van with graffiti style writing across the back. A formal graphic 0800 number on the back window and a website obscured by the wiper blade, phinally deciphered as webcamera.com. What did the graffiti say? "Crude and Violent Nudity. Occasional Language"!!! Logged on when I got home and I guess I should have expected it - cell phone cameras under bathroom stall doors, all kinds of obnoxious perversity. Who would drive around with that on their van? :blink::rolleyes:

Had my favourite nice and current squeeze to stay last night so that raised the Christmas tone a little - she is heading to Wellington for Christmas with my sister's family, sister's ex and second wife, their kids and assorted hangers on. I understand Viv is erecting a marquee on the lawn :o Poor Viv always get stuck with the hosting - oh yeah, all Viv's hub's family are coming too. We are not going - having picnic in the park - prawns, oven fried chicken, asparagus salad, pasta salad, lots of raspberries and strawberries and pavlova.... Weather has been in the 90's but is predicted to cool for Christmas, (but not rain!! :D ) However, whenever you arrange a Kiwi picnic it always rains. :)

      Test Results

      By breadbreadbaby · Posted

      Hi everyone! Thanks so much for your feedback on my post. Here’s the updated information: IgA 0.98 (Range 0.80 - 4.90) Tissue transglutaminase IgA Ab 45.4 (<=14.99 U/mL, Positive >=15.0 U/mL)

      Conflicting results

      By Jy11 · Posted

      My 7yo has been complaining of tummy aches for some months. Bloods show very low iron and vitamin D. We have had multiple bloods as follows… 1. TTg 0.3 (normal) IgA deficient  2. TTg 6.6 (cut off is 7) IgA 0.54 (cut off is 0.5 so only just over not being deficient) 3. TTg 3 (cut off 7) EMA Positive We are awaiting biopsy but why are the blood results so conflicting? Is it likely he is coeliac? We have strong family history with dad having coeliac plus other relative. Can positive EMA be caused by anything other that coeliac disease? It has been bought up the EMA could be from other inflammation but I can’t find any studies that say this?    thank you.

      Chronic mildly elevated liver enzymes was what eventually led to my celiac diagnosis but it took thirteen years to ferret that out and by that time I had developed osteopenia.  Yes, you've got a lot going on there in the way of autoimmune disorders and all of them we now know have a connection with celiac disease. It is true that autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. But it sounds like you are getting medical attention and keeping an eye on things.

      Thank you! Yes, I have celiac disease, lupus and Sjögrens. My ALT and AST have been chronically slightly elevated for a couple years and recently had an acute kidney injury (thinking it was from an antibiotic) with increased Lipase. So my primary doctor referred me to a kidney specialist. Other kidney labs are normal.

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      My test results for TissueTransglutaminase IgA Antibody test came back normal. Like spot on normal. I do not have celiac! My problems are stemming from this H Pylori infection. I think I’ve had it for years. We’ll see if the doctor wants to do an endoscopy to see how extensive the damage is. Otherwise just a regimen of antibiotics will do the trick. The thanks for your guys’s help!
