They Might be Giants....SO much well-written fun. Moxy Fruvous are as good, as clever, and every bit as toe-tapping. Home-grown boys you must check out if you've never heard their stuff. The King of Spain, in particular.

Oops missed this part!

(It couldn't be some insidious plan to up the post count! <30 posts from p300? :o )

Wait a minute, wait a minute...my dad was at our party with us, portraying the Dalai Lama. Unless...now, wait, I'm confused...maybe that really WAS the Dalai :o . Oh, Gawd...I kept calling him a crazy old fart. Ah, so that pained expression wasn't just some really convincing emoting on Dad's part. Naaaah, it had to have been my dad. Old Tibetian monks cannot dance like that...and drink! Whew!

oh my gaaaawd :lol: :lol: :lol:

oh the hell you say!!! You should have SEEN said crazy old fart (the Dalai Lama, or just DL as I call him) at last year's 46th Annual Chuck Norris Wee Cotillion of the Tasseled-Hassled Yeti and Friends. Um, we don't really talk about that night :ph34r: Don't even ASK Janet what she was doing under the table there.

:lol:

Since we all intimately know and love Superweasel, "she" can justifiably be used, here...

Sigh...wish we had Whole Foods up here. Would love to drop DH off just about anywhere for a beer and game-watching. Wait...I drink wine...and I watch more games than he. Where can he drop me off? :lol:

Ahhh yes, I remember that night as well . . . that was the night that I tried to call each and everyone of you and everyone had some sort of excuse as to why they were "unavailable"!!!

Let's see if I can remember those excuses . . .

OMG!!!!! :lol: I feel like I read these 5 min ago and I'm STILL laughing!

:lol::lol:

And HEY!!

ALL instruments need a little tuning now & again . .. . . ..& again .. .. . & again

GREAT cross-referencing, Tom!! Aunt Em and tornadoes. Neither obtuse nor oblique...I love it. I also loved Auntie Em. She just was not in that film enough. And neither was Bert Lahr, my hero...

"If I only had the noive..."

Well, Duh, Tom! Of course the pronoun is in the neutral if it refers to an inanimate object..."the picture" requires "it". Are you going to dangle, next?! Tuning instruments is acceptable...but no dangling...! :lol:

Gad....I hope he was praying........

Well you'd better beLIEVE he was praying.....there was a look of mad, heretofore unseen, wild-eyed terror about him.....oh no, was not the yeti he afeared (they both being from the Him-ahl-yas and all)......'twas the emcee, The Hoff, and after the hamburgers were served. Now THAT, as we know, was a sight..... :huh:

Come to my place, we have wine here ":)

ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come here! I have wine! And a big screen!!! but it'll have to be American football - SO pedestrian. :lol:

Benicio could not possibly stink- he perspires the wafty arroma of TES-TOS-TEROOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, I heard Emily's dad (who really IS the DL) does too but neither are quite as potent as Chuck's.

Ahhh...the cotillion. Was I there? :huh: Please tell me I was and I had fun!

MOXY FRUVOUS? Groovous name...just looked 'em up...they look fun. I like this line:

UHM Craig (I mean Tom)- YOU STILL HAVEN"T ANSWERED MY QUESTION

Do you or do you NOT lie (with inflatable dolls)?

I think the next queen should have a court!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Could I be a member of the court?

We could ask Boy George to entertain at our crowning too!

Darn210 Enthusiast

So . . . Just a question . . . Are we going to get like a dozen posts from Emily as she makes a mad dash for page 300? She just wants the Open Original Shared Link, you know. She doesn't want any of that heavy responsibility that Bev has had to shoulder!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Guess no one is making the mad dash. Might just be the two of us tonight!

I am making centerpieces for my table, want to grab some wine and have some fun?

tom Contributor

Gah!

I try to reply to a post . .. . .you were there . .. . .and you .. . .and you Auntie Em!

"If I only had the noive..."

PUHt 'em up! PUHt 'em uhhhhhhp!

-and-

PUHll an axe on me, eh???

Well, Duh, Tom! Of course the pronoun is in the neutral if it refers to an inanimate object..."the picture" requires "it".

Oh dear .. .. .you've missed the conundrum .. . ..

In my attempt to say I LOL when I see Dingy's avatar, the it vs. her issue is more whether to, in a pronoun-y sense, refer to the avatar (it) or to Super Weasel (her).

Perhaps there's no conundrum a'tall.

tom Contributor

But again w/ the tri-syllabic mountains?

I'm not sure I can buy into this one.

Him-ah-lay-ya . . . .. . .ooooh that has potential for the single entendre :o

Tom, did I read (a long ways back) that you are an engineer?

Amanda - I don't think we've done too bad at all for a weekend.

I just want to make sure that I am not the Queen of page 300. I don't want to wear any stinkin' tiara. And being in charge of two kids is enough for me. I don't want to have to rule the likes of this lot! :angry::huh::lol::lol:

tom Contributor

Well, we're already WELL over a Saturday quota.

Hmmm 5th post from here is p300??

Dare to be Royal!!

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
