I personally am a peanut.

Just don't be a chickpea. I hate those things.

I don't think chickpeas are nuts ... for that matter, neither are peanuts! :lol:

Yeah, it will be scary!

My brain has not returned .... parts of it have, but the rest is still gone. But I've been on Mino for a couple weeks now, so maybe soon. :)

Janet, WHAT in the world is your daughter doing in your avatar? It looks very industrious! She looks sooo much like you.

Why, she's measuring (fake) dinosaur bones, of course. If you could see the picture full size, you might be able to read the sign that says "dinosaur research". The paleontologist caption was suppose to be a hint. Not too much longer and you'll be in the 501 club. Here's a suggestion to boost your numbers, you wait for Tom to post (preferably on the OMG thread) and then you reply with a "hmmm, that's interesting".

You know, I did see the caption, and thought, Cool. Then I looked at the picture, and it looks like she's woodworking with a lathe or something. Me, peering at computer screen----> :blink:

I think I am here to stay. God help us all (especially me :o ).

Ahhh, Peter!! I hope you can handle it! We females on this thread are a fearsome lot. The guys seem to be able to handle it for only short periods of time. Then they must retreat to catch their breath and gather their wits! Richard has been missing in action for several days now. Tom's been working on gathering his wits but apparently, he has packed them in several different boxes for his move and failed to label them appropriately!

Oh . . . by the way . . . no need to tell Scott anything. We're trying to keep a low profile here. On the other hand, if you do talk to Scott, ask him how come he hasn't answered my Green Guy emoticon thread.

I guess Scott thinks there are enough moderators participating in this thread that he doesn't have to check up on us!

Do you think he reads it anonymously?

Yeah, I still want that green guy. We totally NEED that emoticon. It's necessary for our expressive therapy.

Maybe he is actually participating!! Maybe he has a fake/second member ID so that he can participate in some of the threads!! Maybe Sarah isn't really Sarah . . . hmmm? :o Maybe Emily is Scott - she would have gotten some advice from her dad on how to play a different character - no wait, that's not right. If Emily is Scott, then Emily's dad wouldn't be giving Scott advice!! I'VE GOT IT! Emily isn't Scott! Scott is Emily! Emily is the board administrator! Emily, why won't you give us a green guy emoticon?!!

So many quotations have stayed with me over the years, and it's impossible to pick a favorite. The wittiest, I think, was by (who else?) my hero, Winston Churchill:

Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

:

I love Churchill so much..........have pages of his quotes.......and the most charming books of his paintings......and several biographies. Wonder if I"ll finish one of them, ever?

You are all absolutely nuts. I guess that is why I fit in here. LOL. My dry sense of humoUr often gets lost in the written word, so to avoid p*ssing people off I am careful about what I write online.

Who is looking after the Yeti? I found something in my yard today. DNA testing is beyond my means, but I wonder? Should I treat is as something sacred, or just compost it?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd!!!!!!!!!! We've got Peter!!!!!!!! he's one of us, why look, he's even using the superfluous "U" properly!!!!!!!!!! and speaking of practicalities, like DNA testing of possible magical scat in his back yard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

oh this pleases me to no end.....................

Peter, I think you are the only one who has read every word since pg 202! :lol:

:o the HELL you say!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

I actually DO read all the words. remember, I have no life.

:lol: Well, ok- if you want to be all accurate and stuff. :P

TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!! and we need a red-faced devil emoticon.......and - - there was another one we needed - - can't remember........

Likewise . . . I too have read every word and I too have no life . . . here I sit on a Tuesday night, should have gone to bed an hour ago, but I see Susie and Sarah online so I wait to see if they are going to post! :lol: (My stalker instincts have kicked in :ph34r: )

Nicola- You must confirm- is Hugh straight? WHY is he NOT married?

OMGawd Beverly - he's a straight as they come!!!! (Ooops)

I think he's not married because he's a horn dog. That's a southeastern term. :ph34r: Is it allowed to say horn dog?

Yes - horn dog - THAT'S what I meant :lol:

Who is looking after the Yeti? I found something in my yard today. DNA testing is beyond my means, but I wonder? Should I treat is as something sacred, or just compost it?

Mornin' all....Reporting for duty!

I've been pacing around, unable to get my breakfast down....the true identity of Scott...Hmmm. This is troublesome, as I think of the past weeks and how my dad has seemed...well, different. Trying to...moderate...edit...control things. Correcting me on a medical point, criticising when I emoticize too much...And what's with his sudden need for me to log in with a password before I go into their apartment?! Could it be....

He's done it yet again??

I have no life either .... it's the lack of brain, however, that doesn't allow me to read it all! :D I know, I know, it's not supposed to make sense .... but it gets really confusing sometimes! :blink:

What?!? Act natural?!? Do any of us know how to do that?:huh::lol:

Uh, I think everyone is acting natural .... I think normal would be what we don't know how to do! ;)

      Oats gluten free?

      By PA Painter · Posted

      Yes, excessive neuropathy and a debilitating headache, spasms, cramps, tremors. Very much what you would expect from Parkinson or MS, only it coincides with the food and resolves 100% with a whole food AND gluten free diet. The gluten free diet was not enough on it's own I had to eliminate all processed food as well. They did the biopsy a year ago.

      This. How long has it been since you were tested for celiac disease?

      Recent blood test results check in - TTG- IGA

      By trents · Posted

      You have been doing all the right things to manage your celiac disease since diagnosis so what would you have changed? Perhaps the only negligence was not seeking follow-up testing sooner and more regularly. But even then, what would you have done differently as far as the day to day management of your celiac disease? I assume you realize that when something is labeled "gluten free" that does not mean it contains "0" gluten. According to FDA regulations, it just means it contains no more than 20 ppm of gluten. And "certified gluten free" (GFCO) means the product contains no more than 10 ppm. Even the air we breathe contains some gluten as there has to be at least some wheat/barley/rye dust circulating in the atmosphere. My point is, take reasonable precautions to control what you can control and then live your life. You will eventually die of something probably not related to celiac disease.

      Oats gluten free?

      By PA Painter · Posted

      I've had the testing up to the biopsy. Once they confirm the intestine is not affected they cease pursuing further diagnosis, regardless of extra intestinal symptoms. They refuse to pursue anything non celiac.  I react to: banana, avacado, fresh cabbage, yogurt, pecans, walnuts, xantham gum, and obviously wheat, barley, etc. Even so called "gluten free" food cause a violent reaction. Believe it or not. I can eat 3 Tostitos any more than that ruins my next three days. I did have one of the genes for potential autoimmune problems but they said it could mean anything. The most I get in the stomach is acid reflux and hot snakes. My intestinal symptoms are minimal. I think the pathology is different in way yet similar in others.

      Oats gluten free?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  Just to add to the possible cross reaction or contamination sources- look into how you are reacting to the milk protein casein, or course avenin in oats, quinoa protein, and also possible gluten contamination in cooking oils.  I care for my six year old daughter with Celiac, and it’s only after removing all oils from her diet has she felt better. Not even Certified ones were okay. I don’t know why is that, but it is so. I cook in animal fat whenever recipe calls for some oil. Nuts and avocado are the source of fat in her dieT otherwise.
