I should get double points for having to go in the woods whilest battling the viscious "D".....

Oh, THAT doesn't sound fun! :unsure:

No surprise! Last year when we were there I noticed immediately that the men are all very Mayan: stocky and short. The stalls obviously reflect this.... :rolleyes:

Very Mayan indeed!

This is HEINOUS behavior!! Mygawd...do you know them well enough to talk to them about it, as diplomatically as possible?

Heinous indeed. They are not very friendly, keep to themselves type. The type that get into their car IN the garage, then open the door, drive quickly out and away, like they can't be seen. The news papers stack up in the driveway all week. They never shovel the driveway or walk. When I say hi it's like they didn't hear me.

You know, the really FUN neighbors.

Actually, don't care but my heart is a wee bit broken for Brett favre as he is CUTE!

Me too, I luvre me some Favre!!!!!!

Julie- You need to go get this dog. I'm sure that with all the dog-owners on this thread we could disguise him and I HATE YOUR NEIGHBORS- People like that shouldn't be allowed to have pets...never mind childrenm!!!!!!!!!!

I know, and they have 2 little kids!

That's so sweet what your friend did for that other dog.

LOL--yep I am not sure John is into the golden showers.... :ph34r:

I hope that didnt offend anyone.

:lol:

:ph34r: I hope I don't offend anyone by the fact that I understand what Amanda said :ph34r:

*********ROYAL DECREE********

Although passing the test is the "gold standard" for sillyville, it is permitted to join the throng if you:

Can hover successfully, or have ever used a restroom designated for (only) the opposite sex.

Have ever used the phrase "frisk the wookie" or derivatives thereof.

Can quote ANY Monty Python movie or skit.

Can name a movie in which Clint Eastwood sings.

Well, I am only in for #1, the successful hover.

The other skills I am afraid I just don't possess <_<

Julie - we all know you NEED a dog!!! Take the dog. Do a spectacular makeover using your new EM and make him look like a substandard poodle. This will also require brushing his teeth with some tri-headed contraption from Peter. If possible, teach him to bark with an accent (Le Bark). Tell the neighbors "No, I haven't seen your dog. I'm sure he'll end up with someome who will love him and cherish him". . .if only, huh? :(

:lol::lol::lol:

This made me giggle, yeah if only <_<

Does it count if you used the mens room in another country? And a man came in while you were there? :lol:

It happend in Mexico...

:lol: Donna

Now that must have been a pricelss moment :lol:

Hey Jess,

I believe the answer to #4 of Your Royal Decree IS......"Paint Your Wagon".

Between his second visit to Widowdom, my father used to date Tina Louise's (Ginger) mother. Hum, we could have been stepsisters - perish the thought :o .

Strangely, I actually knew that too. My dad is a big fan of Clint Eastwood movies and I always watched along with him because (I'm not sure if this makes me weird but . . .) I've thought he was a supreme babe since I was about 11 years old. (Um . . . Clint not my dad :lol: )

I figured I would show off my kitty, Lucky. He is 2, you cant tell how big he is, He is not a small kitty. I love him to death though, always by my side. He does the oddest things. :)

I am so glad to learn that I have a long lost twin. And I am even more pleased that it Open Original Shared Link.

BAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Big Fat Greek Wedding? You know, the bebopsy? Actually I woke up this morning and told Kurt I had a tumor. He said, "It's NOT a TUMAH!"

LOL--yep I am not sure John is into the golden showers.... :ph34r:

No...made me GUFFAW out loud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only thing I've been offended by lately is something I would not even mention in ANY thread, not even this one :ph34r:

It counts twice and may even exempt you from professional development points :P

and did you happen to be quoting Monty Python at the time? perhaps "please fondle my buttocks" thinking it meant "Yo quiero un cigaretto".

:lol:

2) no worries - stalls all occupado so I went in the sink

Kurt, is that you? :huh:

Well, her head's swollen...from getting the MVP!! I was so proud of her for that one... :):)

She's still got a bit of a headache, but went to school today and seems her regular girly self. Thanks so much, all, for asking about my little netminder...

THAT IS SO GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A terrible thought just occured to me.......is the male equivalent of hovering tea-bagging? We'll have to weigh in on this as I believe that hovering takes much more leg muscle than a momentary (yet unbelievably memorable) tea-bag :ph34r::lol:

<tucking in shirt> wow the ladies' room is inCREDIble at the Fairmont here!!!!!

So I'm in?

I have stayed at the Fairmont in San Jose several times but I never checked out the ladies' room. It was an "approved" hotel for business travel when I worked for Hitiachi and had to visit the Santa Clara office. A nice hotel in an iffy neighboUrhood. Go out the front and turn right--okay. Any other direction, watch your @$$!

I would judge that a classic hover takes more work, muscularly, than a tea-bag. But I asked my DH this last night and he replied, "Whaddya mean, is there a male equivalent? Of course there isn't, at least not for me, because I hover, as well. We don't stand to do EVERYTHING". Ahhhh, of course. Tom, do you hover at such moments?

I have been a member since the Raving Parade we had back in the day. We were in full-Silly Spirit at the time. We had marshmallow floats and all kinds of fun stuff. We have calmed a little since that time.

You know who I haven't seen in the Vortex lately, Daughter of the Light. She was very creative in our parade. Hope she stops in soon.

Now that must have been a pricelss moment :lol:

Yes, it was, lol. While I can't drink much anymore (sorry everyone, lol, it makes me really sick), does it count that I seem to attrack drunk people?

Ah, it happened in Guatemala. Have you ever ridden on a rural bus...it involved a very drunk local who sat next to me, oh, and the really do carry live chickens on those buses. :lol:

It counts twice and may even exempt you from professional development points :P

Phew!

We also must discuss what we will be sacrificing at this Magical Site. Goats? Everyday Mineral makeup? Julie's HEINOUS neighboUrs? :lol::o

No, no not the EM makeup!!! I vote for the neighbors or goats!

I never watched it when it was first aired on HBO, I am enjoying the reruns in syndication, but somehow I don't think I am getting the full effect with the watered down edited versions :lol::lol:

YEAH Bev! Tell us! You can't drop the bomb and then leave us hanging like that, SPILL IT!!!

Although me thinks it's something terribly icky because I don't think you offend easily :huh:

first off, I like goats. And makeup but I clearly do NOT like Julie's neighbors so I vote that we sacrifice them.

Tell you? Tell you? OK, all I'm going to say is that the latest Internet obsession involves two girls doing something even grosser than what Amanda mentioned. And it has spawned a whole bunch of youtube videos of people's reactions. In fact, my husband showed it to me and videoed by reaction which was as follows "oh m y God, oh my God, there's NO way. OMG- this is so fake. If they really ate that they would die! Do these people not know about E Coli? Oh my God...give me a break!

It is disgusting!!!!!

I meant to weigh in on this earlier.

I'm not entirely certain everyone understands the true nature of teabagging.

Hmmmmmm .. . .for one, tea isn't made from one quick dip. Secondly, . .. ..uhhhhh . .... . . (HubbaHubba?)

But on to the hovering.

As far as I know, hovering is for Harrier Jets, helicopters and women.

Drunk Guatemalans, a bus full of live chickens, a chance meeting in the mens room, this is shaping up to be a very interesting story about your trip :lol:

I have to concur, I like the make up so I just can't part with it. And goats are white and fuzzy and cute, I don't have the heart.

I am watching Regis and Kelly again, and I really feel they are mocking the Yeti.

I think we should start a letter writing campaign. :lol:

      For me I gave up oat products and it finally cleared. I had a whole body reaction for months. Two additional culprits for me: shared grill at a restaurant or a shared toaster.  Hope you have relief soon.

      It can take between 6 months and 2 years for the dermatitis herpetiformis rash to resolve. The symptoms of dermatitis herpetiformis arise from deposits of certain antibodies building up in the skin. These deposits attract immune cells leading to inflammation and blistering. It can take 10 years for the deposits to be reabsorbed although symptoms resolve long before this.

      Welcome to the forum, Linda! Many on this forum can sympathize with you. It can be extremely difficult to get reliable information about gluten when it comes to meds, supplements and oral hygiene products. This is especially true since so much of this stuff is generic and comes from over seas. I will deflect with regard to your question about meds and oral products but take you in another direction. Have you tried a low iodine diet. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis and some find that a low iodine diet helps reduce the number of outbreaks. By the way, have you had your celiac antibodies retested recently? If they are elevated that might be a clue that you are getting gluten in your oral hygiene products or meds.

      Hi. I’m 70 years old, and a 22 year survivor of head and neck cancer treated with chemo-radiation, which resulted in non-existent submandibular salivary glands and extreme dry mouth and altered oral mucosa. I have been using dry mouth toothpaste, Rx oral dentrifices and moisturizers for years.  I’ve recently been diagnosed with severe celiac dermatitis herpetiformis. I was being treated with oral Dapsone, but it was not effective and I developed some serious side effects. So, the medication was stopped and I was started on Doxycycline (another antibiotic) for inflammation. I’ve been using Rx Betamethasone steroid ointment with little to no effect. I have tried every oral and topical antihistamine treatment available OTC. None have touched this horrible relentless itching. That is my history.  Now to my question. Does anybody know about gluten free toothpastes and mouth moisturizers? I ask because a very common dry mouth brand stated to me that they were indeed gluten free. But as I am not getting any better with my dermatitis herpetiformis, I was wondering if I was getting glutenized some way other than diet as  I have been following a strict clean gluten free diet, but I am not seeing any improvement at all. So, I started looking up the toothpastes and moisturizer ingredients individually and nine (9) of the eleven (11) or so listed showed up as   containing gluten or that may have gluten! Am I getting glutenized orally by these products?  As an aside, I checked on my favorite lavender scented baby lotion which is supposed to be gluten free, but many of those ingredients when investigated separately, show they  do contain or may contain gluten as well. I stopped using the lotion. But I cannot forgo my dental care. I was unable to get any information from the manufacturer of my current brand of chewable multivitamins either. They told me to check with my doctor. If THEY don’t know what’s in their product, how do they think a PCP will?  In light of all this, I am confused and angry that I might keep getting contaminated with gluten through products I am using that are supposedly gluten safe. *I should also state that I have a nickel allergy since I was about 12-13 years old. And I developed a contact allergy to latex (gloves) when I was a student nurse at 19 years old.  I know and I’m sorry that this is so lengthy. I’m trying to do everything I can to combat this condition, and I’m feeling very confused, anxious and angry about not getting adequate information as I try to educate and advocate for myself. I’m hoping someone here is more knowledgeable than me of how to navigate through all of this. Can anyone offer any advice?  Thank you for your time.  Respectfully,  Linda

      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?
