The "I'm Not So Happy Today"- Topic

Oh my goodness.

I'd definitely get a camera system.

You could not even begin to fathom how loud it gets. I would never believe it had I not lived it. The windows rattle and my husband and I have to go into a closed room on the other side of the house just to talk to each other.

It takes a lot to get me mad, but this makes me FUMING angry. :angry: Our peace and quiet is violated by some, well, jerk who believes he is entitled to do as he pleases.

So, to turn the topic off nasty neighbors and onto myself...

Hubs came down with a bug (got to love airplane travel)...and didn't realize it til we'd gotten quite cozy.

So, my cold symptoms are mild but my stupid stomach feels like there's a rock in it.

He's eating everything in sight and I want to hurl.

I'm so unimpressed.

Oh, shoot. Dumb plane travel. :angry: Poor stomach. :o Maybe you should hurl onto some of that food! I bet that would do it. :P

I probably CAN imagine. Our neighborhood has very close houses. I can hear my neighbors open their garage door. One neighbor did have a party around new years - and quite frankly it was out of character for her - I wondered if she was even home since she had lots of visitors around that time. A house sitter? Anyway, it was LOUD in our house.

Have another neighbor - across the street, that starts his quad at 6 am some mornings. Its like it's IN my house. I think someone spoke to him because he was letting it idle for 30 minutes. Now he starts it and leaves.

But I can say none of them are quite up to par with what you put up with. I say build a case and take it to the police. The vandalism is just ridiculous and should be prosecuted.

We have been building a case, documenting every single thing, but they will not prosecute. Get this - this guy is FRIENDS with some of the police! How I do not know. Maybe from jail. :P

I don't know the laws in Canada but is public embarrassment an option? YouTube?

And if you get them on video (with audio) I think it will be hard for even a friendly police force to ignore it. Especially if you go for their throat, too.

Have you consulted an attorney?

Do you have Homeowner's Associations there? I think they are the devil, but in this case might be handy.

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.

      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.

      The reason that it triggers your dermatitis herpetiformis but not your celiac disease is because you aren't completely intolerant to gluten. The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate a some gluten or cross contamination. It just depends on the sensitivity of the gene.

      @Mynx, you say, "The reason this is believed is because the gluten protein molecule is too big to pass through the distillation process. Unfortunately, the liquid ie vinegar is cross contaminated because the gluten protein had been in the liquid prior to distillation process." I guess I misunderstand what you are trying to say but the statements in those two sentences seem to contradict one another.

      It isn't a conjecture. I have gotten glitened from having some distilled white vinegar as a test. When I talked to some of my scientists friends, they confirmed that for a mall percentage of people, distilled white vinegar is a problem. The cross contamination isn't from wheat glue in a cask. While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation process, after the distillation process, the vinegar is still cross contaminated. Please don't dismiss or disregard the small group of people who are 100^ gluten intolerant by saying things are conjecture. Just because you haven't done thr research or aren't as sensitive to gluten doesn't mean that everyone is like you.
