Who can forget George running from the bathroom to the phone, with his pants around his ankles, falling face first on the floor--and Jerry walks in and says "and you want to be my new latex salesman!"

Say Vandelay! Say Vandelay! :lol:

Yep--George at the unemployment office, and on the date with the woman's daughter--"if I need a drill bit, I'll call ya <_< ". That episode had so many great moments....

AND YOU WANT TO BE MY LATEX SALESMAN :lol::lol::lol:

oh dear God.....my mom and I love Vindaloo Chicken...but we now call it Vandalay Industries chicken..... :lol::lol::lol:

Julie - Kramer didn't have a tan from Kenny's Roasters - but the light from the sign shining in his apartment - or, "the red planet" they were calling it, was bright red, and he wasn't sleeping, I think? so Jerry stayed there - couldn't sleep and I think that's when he thought he saw the little puppet/man running across the floor...."mr...???" what was the puppet's name? someone here will know..... :lol::lol::lol:

Hey guys and girls:

As many may have noticed, I am a constant lurker here. I have not posted much at all (don't want to offend anyone, sheesh). By the way, Steve and I kissed and made up. Guess I'm safe here :rolleyes:

You all just crack me up and Richard is the funniest, whitiest guy around. I just love to read his posts. The construction worker with the thongs had me laughing all day and his presentation....all too perfect. :lol:

Has anyone asked him what his user name means, or if obvious and I don't get it, or has it been asked before.

Thanks for entertaining me.

Lisa

Carla - sorry your demon braces hurt. I had braces from ages 9-12 and then again from 37-39 (a month shy of 40). Mine hurt like heck for 2-3 days when I first got them on and then every time they'd be adjusted. Applesauce, canned pears and chicken broth were my friends. So unfair to not be able to eat yogurt and ice cream!

I worked today and couldn't catch up on all the reading, but tried to hit the funny highlights. You're all hysterical!

Thanks for the food suggestions. I went to choir practice tonight, it hurt very much to play my flute ...

Doc wants me eating lots of protein .... I had chicken broth tonight, I might be eating a lot of scrambled eggs, avocados and over-cooked carrots!!

Wood working, it has a place in our house.

My husband, retired, makes humidors and various boxes and sells them. Some bring him attic flooring and ask that he make boxes out of the home wood., for their children .

Wish I had your translation earlier, I could have used it. :) Please keep me laughing. :)

Does he remind anybody else of Brad Pitt's older brother?

I don't think Steven will be pleased with the "company". I think he took the dingo's for sushi last night. :huh:

Me thinks you do not want to test Mr. Segal...He may be fat, but did i mention he's also CRAZY? (not Gary Busey crazy, but in the same neighborhood)

Now this guy could help in the garden AND lift heavy objects...

      Being a burden to family/friends

      Interesting you mention MCAS. I have come across mcas before but I wasn’t entirely sure if that’s what it was. When I eat certain food like dairy or soy my face gets so hot and I feel flush and my heart rate shoot’s up. And sometimes my bottom lip swells or I get hives somewhere. This started happening after I had a really bad case of Covid. Before that ...

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      Hi everyone After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra i...

      Food Tasting Salty

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to. 1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If...

When I eat certain food like dairy or soy my face gets so hot and I feel flush and my heart rate shoot’s up. And sometimes my bottom lip swells or I get hives somewhere. This started happening after I had a really bad case of Covid.  Before that I was able to eat all those things (minus gluten) I was diagnosed with celiac way before I had Covid.  Hmm, not sure really. I may look for a different allergist my current one told me to take Zyrtec and gave me an epi pen.

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not even a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA) will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.

      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to.   1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If that is the case, wouldn't the individuals mouth always be salty during a "Glutening" situation, or are we saying that the person could get "use to the flavor" until introducing food or beverage and that could be enough to "stir the pot" and notice the salty flavor? 2. To push back on "#1": If that were true anyone with issues of histamine releasing foods/treatments would experience the same thing. Also, I did not experience a situation where most beverages were "too salty". Thoughts?
