Well it's 11:20 am here, so I am going with scrubs or NOTHING!
Random thought... even the reason why I logged in today... MAGATORY... Magprob. I was thinking of his stupid wonderfully written Halloween poems... they were good, almost excellent:) J, you are wearing Spongebob jammies and a smile:) XXOO
Since you mention it Start, I have a new poem. It's about J_9 and her green Dwarf boyfriend running rampant, killing black cats on Halloween night, and using the blood as an elixer that promotes rapid wart growth.
It's a killer!
Hmmmm... I'm going to do it...
Late at the party they were all feeling Mary, she left, so they all jumped for Joy... :o
I speak for the ignored dwarves... Sloppy and P!ssy have Grumpy's back. Huffy would have also voted in favor but his panties were in a bunch.
22 22 22 Start.
How are you hon, so good to see you too...
I have a new motto for the day - Life is short, party naked! Who's going to join me?
I've lost 48 pounds so far... need to continue exercising a bit more to firm up some more then... yup for sure.
How did you do it? I need to lose 20#
The dark side of J... who wants a piece?

[QUOTE=Stringer;2566554]Mine is from taking Byetta for my diabetes J kills the appetite.[/QUOTE
What is 'Byetta' I don't recognize it ?
[QUOTE=tickle;2566930]Hi Tick,
It is pretty new, but my friend has found the same results. Apparently it is a synthetic form of a chemical found in the gila monster, which can go a long time without eating. It mimics that chemical which causes the stomach to slow down the procees of dumping into the intestines. About half the people who are on it find it causes a sharp decrease in appetite, and the nice side benefit is weight loss... however, many find the sharp decrease subsides a bit after about a year as your body seems to figure out how to outwit it. I know someone else who was prescribed it for prediabetes and she did not get the same result.
[QUOTE=startover22;2568675]Oh. I'm not on it, my friend is. She has been fortunate though, has not had the nausea. She dropped a fair amount of weight when first on it, but has found it has slowed down for her unfortunately.
Hope you have continued success with it Stringer!
Out of the mouths of babes:
Little boy in my class is into dinosaurs, sharks and snakes. He can tell you the various names of just about any of them, what they eat, habitats, etc.
He shows me a picture of a boa constrictor wrapped around a rabbit. He proceeds to explain to me how it wraps around its prey and squeezes until the animal suffocates. Then he asks, "Have you ever been strangled by a boa constrictor?" My reply, "No J, I don't believe I have" :)
[QUOTE=Stringer;2567688]I hope it doesn't interact with the diabetes in any way. I think you mentioned, Stringer, that you were a diabetic ? Did you check with your doctor before taking Byeta. I am not trying to make you a case study, but would be interesting to know, if you know for sure, it doesn't have a downside with diabetes.

Tick... it is sometimes prescribed for diabetics and, at times, for those who fall in the category of being prediabetic.
Read about Byetta (exenatide) diabetes medication by MedicineNet.com
[QUOTE=tickle;2568715]Start... it's a battle that I will win hon, thanks.
Tick it was prescribed by my GP. I was taking two shots a day for all this time but I started taking one a week or so ago because of the nausea. I am doing that on my own though...
I am also taking other meds for the diabetes and my daily tests have ranged from about 109 to upwards of 135 or so...
48 pounds is a lot of weight to lose, that's a small person you know... :)

Lilly The Witch And Her Green Dwarf Mort Breed A Wart.
By Magprob
Happy Halloween!
Hand me that beaker with the slimy goo
The placenta is ready, I can't let it cool
A teaspoon of cat hair, and a snip of tail
That's when the poor cat began to wail
Kill that dirty cat, Lilly screamed in rage
Mort the Dwarf blasted it with his gauge
Blood splattered like rain all over the two
She licked it all off like the morning dew
We need this brain bowl filled to the top
So get to cracking my dwarf, chop, chop!
Mort the Green Dwarf did as he was told
He sopped all the blood a skull can hold
Now pour it in here and don't spill a drop
If it ain't just right, it might spoil our crop
A cluster of pustules, dried mucus flakes,
Secretion of syphilis, parts of dead snakes,
Dried booger of troll, creamy smear dribble
And wiggly things from a dead blue Gribble
All in the pot and bubbling like witches stew
Lilly dipped out a cup full and tasted the goo
AHHHH! Perfect! Just the way Granny done
It goes really well with a hot cross top bun!
But we are not here to eat and make merry
So hand me the last part, the poison berries
There! Done! I am so completely desirous
To breed the most biggest, beautifulest virus!
Look at my sorry little warts, tiny as can be
And all of the other witches make fun of me
But the warts I am about to bring into being
Will send all of the other old witches fleeing
She drank and she gobbled till all was gone
Soon, her face started to look old and drawn
Then she let a loud poot and started to yawn
Suddenly her ears blew out a yellowish smoke
The Dwarf moved back so he wouldn't choke
Her belly swelled as her butt began to whistle
Out popped a sphincter rat like a ballistic missile
The floor started shaking and the ceiling cracked
At that, the scared Dwarf moved way, way back
She let out a howl that they could hear in Illinois
Why, it even awoke poor Miss Bacon's dead boys
The rats were evacuating with the spiders as well
It was too dangerous there, so they headed for hell
The moon cracked in half and the sun didn't shine
And an ice cold chill ran up even the devils spine
Suddenly a pop was heard like an atomic bomb
The poor little Dwarf could no linger stay calm
He crawled under the Tesla coil and pooed his shorts
Upon seeing his poor Lilly breaking out in giant warts
Pop! Pop! All over her face, Pop! Pop! All over the place
A wart popped on her nose and one popped out on her chin
Then more warts on top of those warts and then more again
In a matter of minutes, Lilly was covered with big ugly warts
And once again, the terrified Dwarf poo-pooed in his shorts
Lilly started laughing just like criminally insane people do
Rubbing her warts, dancing around and screaming YA-HOO!
I”VE DONE IT! I”VE DONE IT! I'm the wartiest of them all!
Come on you sorry little Dwarf, We're off the Witches ball!
And when we get back, you can go to work cleaning these bowls
I'll be finding my recipe for big, dark and hairy, malignant moles
Magatory, you have done it again. I just don't see anyone topping that one. Yucky yucky yucky, I love it!
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, am I still the TWISTEDIST of them all? Tee hee hee!
That was great! :D
In the scientific and medical communities, the technical name for using one's finger to extract boogers is rhinotillexis, and doing so compulsively is termed rhinotillexomania. The act of eating the resulting harvest is called mucophagy.
There is an Austrian doctor who has gained notoriety by advocating the picking of one's nose and the consumption of the resulting bounty, particularly in children. Dr. Friedrich Bischinger, a lung specialist working in Innsbruck, would have us believe that people who pick their noses with their fingers are healthier, happier, and more in tune with their bodies. His argument stems from the notion that exposing the body to the dried germ corpses helps to reinforce the immune system. The good doctor feels that society should adopt a new approach to nose-picking, and encourage children to take up the habit.
Dr. Bischinger has been quoted as saying (in an Austrian accent), "With the finger you can get to places you just can't reach with a handkerchief, keeping your nose far cleaner. And eating the dry remains of what you pull out is a great way of strengthening the body's immune system." He then added, "Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In terms of the immune system the nose is a filter in which a great deal of bacteria are collected, and when this mixture arrives in the intestines it works just like a medicine."
"Modern medicine is constantly trying to do the same thing through far more complicated methods, people who pick their nose and eat it get a natural boost to their immune system for free."
This theoretical boost comes from the fact that boogers are chock full of bacteria which your body has shuttled out by way of mucus. Mucus lines many of the pathways into the body's delicate innards, and creates a surface which is like flypaper for bacteria and other particles. Once stuff becomes mired in the goo, the loaded mucus is slowly escorted out by tiny hairs called cilia which sweep the undesirables back out the door. In regards to the nose, when this exiting mucus becomes dry, boogers are produced.
What our good Dr. Bischinger doesn't tell us is that nose mining can be a dangerous pursuit. If the skin inside the nose is broken while picking away, the veins in that region are situated in such a way that sometimes an infection can migrate inward to the base of the brain and inhibit the blood flow, a serious condition known as cavernous sinus thrombosis. This condition can also be caused by squeezing zits on or around the nose. Because of these risks, the triangular area of the face from the corners of the mouth to the bridge of the nose is referred to in the medical community as the "danger triangle of the face."
Risks aside, can the immune system really be reinforced by introducing germs into the gut via boogers? While the unpleasant notion may have some scientific merit, it is not based on any formal studies. For this reason, I propose a clinical study where each test subject is given real boogers or placebo boogers for a period of several months, and each group's susceptibility to disease is cataloged during that time. Only then can we know with any certainty.
