Well, 'twas a long day but a good one.

How about those Blue Jays? They whacked the Reds 14-1 tonight. A new (old) manager and some new coaches, and the bats have come alive.

Yesterday, we interviewed a candidate for a job with us, and made an offer which was accepted. He started this morning. There will be three of us to unload the truck in the morning. He will only be with us for the summer, as he will be going back to UWO to finish his degree in September (one semester to go).

He lives in walking distance and worked in this store for two summers while it was a corporate store, and also has experience with the company in store layout design. Minimal training is required, although he has been away for two years. Some things have changed, and we do some things differently than a corporate store does. But a break in our favoUr in the near term.

The death of George Carlin on Sunday is sad. He was so phunny. He could take anything and find something phunny about it.

We saw him perform in Toronto in the early 80s at what was then the O'Keefe Centre (now the Sony Centre).

A phunny thing happened in the lobby. A phormer high school classmate was also there and recognized me. We had not seen each other in about ten years, but he came up and said hello. We shook hands and chatted.

Larry King had a tribute to George Carlin on his show last night, and as we were watching, Jacquie mentioned that we had seen him live. I asked if she remembered who spoke to us in the lobby that evening, and she had forgotten. It was Open Original Shared Link. We both attended Open Original Shared Link. He went on to play Dr Fiscus on St Elsewhere, and other things.

George Carlin had a record called Class Clown released in 1972, about the time that the class clown at Northview was Howie. The story about him placing a chocolate bar in the school pool and causing it to be drained is a fabrication of his comedy routine. It never happened, at least not at Northview.

An early morning coming up, so I will be soon to bed.

Single D's would be fine for me, I don't need the double .... heck, C's would be fine. :)

Jestgar, you sound like you have experience with this stuff ... I think one time we were talking about trading because you didn't look smart with yours and I don't care about looking smart. :P

Tom, isn't that every man's dream ... to have a pair for a whole day?! :lol:

Morning, Gang!

PeOter and Howie! Of course, he's a big star in the States now with Deal or No Deal, but I always just loved him as our Toronto Howie, the hilarious stand-up comic whose routines used to kill me. Now he's...I dunno....just another big, slick game-show host. He just isn't so PHUNNY anymore....

I guess back then, PeOter, he had his incredible, wild, black afro going big-time...too phunny.

:lol:

So we have a few rather chesty Sillies, here...Sarah, too! It's not that mine are that small, they're now just....considerably lower, I guess.... :(<_<

Wow--Howie doesn't shake hands anymore due to his germ-phobia--I've seen him talk about it numerous times on talk shows.. You got in before the cut-off :lol: Very cool you two went to school together!

Sarah--phunny article! :P They didn't have a clue :lol:

Is anyone else having this problem? Since yesterday, if I hit "quote", my screen immediately pops back to to top of the page. I have to keep scrolling back down. I can still quote, but it's a real pain. :angry:

Morning Sillies!!!!

Emily you beat me here :):) By a whole 3 minutes lol!

I missed the Boobies talk...so I can add in now, I got C's....which I think are too big for me

We are having a potluck lunch today at work, I made my famous chicken scampi and homemade lemonade. We have not done this in awhile. Awhiles a good time though.

Last night Jen and Landen were invited to a BBQ supper by one of her coworkers. So she was not going to go since she had not been feeling the best but in the end decided to go. Well, she and Landen were the only ones out of 15 that showed up. The woman had made all kinds of food, hot dogs, hamburgers, salads....and no one ever showed, no calls, nothing. They had all said they were coming. When Jen thanked the woman for having them over, the woman thanked her for coming so she did not have to eat alone. Isn't that sad? It is one reason I don't ever want to host a party at my house. If no one showed up I would be so sad....I told Jen aren't you glad you went now, probably made the womans day.

I guess I better start some work.

Bye Sillies!

Amanda--That is so rude that no one bothered to call that woman to tell her they couldn't come. Things can come up at the last minute, but for all 15 to just not show....I feel really bad for her.

I hope she never invites any of them again! <_<

Have a nice lunch today! :D

I think you have to kick a$$ at what you do to get away with stuff like that.

Just popping in to say hello. I had another 2 rough days with my reaction, it traveled from my throat to my tongue, not fun at all :( ..........don't have much silly-ness in me.

I'm too far behind to go back but I noticed poop and boobs and Howie Mandell have been some of the topics of conversation, typical Sillyville stuff :lol:

Janet, I did read you didn't have such a great zoning board meeting. I'm sorry the outcome was not what you were hoping for :(

Julie, I'm soo sorry you're having a hard time!!! I don't know what an angioedema is, I'm going to have to google it, but it doesn't sound fun at all. :( (((HUGS))) :wub:

Bev, how is your PICCless self feeling? Hope you're doing ok!

Gotta run for now, I'm taking the Pod Brats who stole my good children to the library. Later!

Aaaaaaannnnd I'm back! My car battery is dead, dead, dead. Ugh. My friend is on her way over and we're gonna try to jump it. :ph34r: I hate doing that. Car batteries scare me. She said she knows how to do it. :unsure:

If it doesn't take long, we might still make it (with all 5 eager children) to the library in time for the animal expert lecture. If we don't make it, we're gonna have 5 unamused children. :rolleyes:

If you've got enough rope to make harnesses you could hook them all up to the car and have them pull it to the library.

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @robingfellow and @Mr-Collateral531, I also had to have my gallbladder removed in emergency surgery.  The gallbladder uses lots of thiamine vitamin b1 to function.   The gallbladder cannot secrete bile if it doesn't have sufficient thiamine.  Thiamine provides our muscles and glands energy to move and secrete needed enzymes and hormones.  The thyroid is another gland that requires lots if thiamine to function and secrete hormones.   Our brains, just thinking at a desk job, requires as much thiamine as our muscles do if running a marathon.   Migraines are linked to thiamine deficiency. Thiamine is the first of the eight B vitamins that our body needs. Thiamine can only be stored for three weeks at most.  Our thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  We need more thiamine when we have a physical injury (like recovering from surgery or fighting the flu), if we're emotionally stressed or traumatized, and if we're physically active.  Thiamine, like the other B vitamins, is water soluble and easily excreted in urine or most in diarrhea.  B vitamins are commonly poorly absorbed in Celiac Disease.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins need to be taken together because they interact with each other to make life sustaining enzymes.  Thiamine deficiency can affect individual organs.  Gallbladder dysfunction is connected to thiamine deficiency, as is hypothyroidism.    Migraines are connected to thiamine deficiency.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi (abdominal pain, vomiting, etc.) is a result of thiamine deficiency.  Tachycardia and fatigue are also symptoms of thiamine deficiency.   Thiamine and magnesium make enzymes that are essential for life.   Thiamine is needed to absorb certain minerals like iron.  Anemia and thiamine deficiency frequently occur together.  Thiamine deficiency can cause poor blood cell production (including low antibody production).   Thiamine interacts with other vitamins and minerals.  Vitamin D is not utilized by the body until turned into an active form by Thiamine. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  High doses of thiamine correct deficiencies quickly which prevent further health deterioration.  A one a day type multivitamin is not sufficient to correct vitamin and mineral deficiencies that occur in the malabsorption of Celiac Disease.   The Gluten free diet is low in vitamins as they are not required to be enriched with vitamins lost in processing.  Supplementing with thiamine and the B vitamins boosts their absorption.   Helpful Reading: Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Wernicke's Encephalopathy Triggered by One Session of Heavy Drinking https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6739701/ P. S. Try a DNA test to see if you have any known genes for Celiac Disease before doing a gluten challenge.

      Certified gluten free oats

      By Matt13 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply ! I am asking because tomorow i have egd and nobody told me not to eat gluten-free oats… and i was scared that it could ruin my biopsy results…

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I would think that for the 10% of celiacs who can't tolerate oats it would cause villous atrophy just like gluten. No, it would not produce marsh 3b villous atrophy in a couple of days. Nothing will produce measurable villous atrophy that fast. It takes at least two weeks of at least 10g of gluten consumption daily (10g is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread) to develop measurable villous atrophy and even then probably not 3b villous atrophy. Are you asking these questions in because you are considering taking on a gluten challenge?

      Thanks for the awnsers i understand there is maybe system reaction but do they create or cause villious atrophy? And igmf you it them for example a couple of days di they instantly induce marsh 3b?

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By robingfellow · Posted

      My gallbladder was at 94% ejection fraction according to my HIDA scan before surgery, when the "normal" range is considered to be between 30-80%, so the surgeon recommended removal because I had been experiencing severe chronic upper quadrant pain and even vomiting despite having a strong stomach. A biopsy after surgery showed intense inflammation suggesting my gallbladder was on the verge of bursting if I hadn't gotten it removed.   The last time my iron and vitamin d levels were checked post-gluten free diet they were in a normal range (I take 60mg iron tablets every other day, and vitamin D capsules daily) I do also take magnesium daily, specifically 400mg magnesium bisglycinate at night to aid my sleep since I try to avoid taking melatonin due to personal preference.   I'll definitely have to keep in mind the point about celiac possibly causing gallbladder problems, I'll probably wait until I can see a proper GI and get their input before I attempt to reintroduce gluten back into my diet that way any reaction I may or may not have can be properly assessed.
