There sure are A LOT of birthdays today   Are you guys seeing all that too?

 
So many 99 and 100 year olds
 
Happy birthday, everyone!! 
 
 
I would venture a wild guess, but someone hacked the site - but Happy Birthday to Pam!wow..someone really had a good time.. 
 
happy birthday to anyone who is REALLY having a b/day today!!
I would say they just didn't mark their B-days when they registered. And yes I did see it, it made me chuckle...also made me think of my Grandma Honey, she died two months before her 101 birthday...I gave her a 101 anyways....miss her..it was 1 year this last Nov 16.
 
She was so cool, had her mind up until the last 4 or 5 days,,,,,,and she only looked about 90:)  It's really my birthday today!  I even "gained" a year.  I have been telling everyone that I was turning 48 because for the last 6 mos. or so I said I was 47.......well, my good friend set me straight....I turned 47 today.  What a ditz!Debra...I've been thinking the same thing..I turn 47 this month but have been thinking I was already 47...I ended up asking my husband (we're the same age) because I really couldn't remember how old I was.
Happy Birthday Debra!!  Hope you had a wonderful 47th birthday!!
Happy Birthday, Pam!  Hope you've had a good day!

Happy Birthday to all the others :)
Yes, Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
A New Years Babe!
 
I added a year to my age when I was in my 30's...my sister heard me tell someone how old I was and she about fell over...Big sis corrected me
 
:)  Thanks for the birthday wishes.  I'm also glad I'm not alone in screwing up my age, lol.
Hello Everyone!! Haven't been on in soooo long. You know how life gets--too busy and all and time flies. anyways I just had my birthday on Dec. 28th. The BIG 39---but I tell everyone that I turned "twenty nineteen"!!!    hee hee sounds so much better, don't ya think??

Happy Bday Debra & Wysone!!

It is not my bday.  I just  had a giggle when I looked in on today's bdays:)

Hope you both had a great one!!

where do you look into today's birthdays?bottom of Forum page........

However, the very large list is not only a couple...according to the AI time it is Jan 2, 2009

only 10:00pm here.....
 
 
Edited to add:
Well that was strange...I looked and there were only a couple of b-days.....now the very large list is back....so disregard my message above...until Jan2 that is [QUOTE=justsaynoemore]I would venture a wild guess, but someone hacked the site - but Happy Birthday to Pam![/QUOTE]

It just seems to be the default date when someone joins the site.  Many sites require a birthday when signing up, in an effort to "prove" that the person is over a certain age.  Looking on this site's signup page, it seems that the default (tab to day/month/year and select the first option in the pulldown) yields 1/1/1910.  Last year it was probably 1/1/1909, and 1/1/1908 the year before, etc... thus generating hundreds of folks somewhere around a century old, all "born" on January 1.

Honestly Cathy - try to look on the bright side once in a while.  Not unusual/undesireable occurance is the result of someone's evil intent.

Honestly, Jasmine, try to get off my butt, you are not my mother.  Last March I mentioned my birthday was coming up, and on the day, my name DID NOT SHOW UP AT ALL BECAUSE I HADN'T PUT IT IN MY PROFILE.
 
SO MS. KNOW-IT-ALL - my comment was based on the FACT that I didn't initially enter my birthday, there was no "default" birthday as my name and birthday and no "100" or "99" years old didn't show up.  So go blow it out your ass. 
 
I am so over you Jasmine, leave me alone. 
 
Edited to correct a typo because I am so shaking mad at this stupid bitch who needs to find a life and to stop stalking me on this forum.

Wow.  If I'm a stalker what does that make Pip and all her threats to chase down LevLarry and fight him?

LMAO


How is Pip relevant to your stalking JSNM?Does anyone know if Jan. 1 was Pam's birthday?If you're going around pointing out stalkers you just might want to start with your friend Pip.  I'm not stalking anyone.  But if JSNM feels better by stoking the fires of her own paranoia, I'm glad I'm able to help her out by (GASP) responding to a post on a messageboard.  Shaking mad over a simple post of mine?  Seriously, that's pathological. Let's twist again.. Like we did last summer... twisting time is here!

Well, Jasmine, you do tend to pop up after almost every one of her posts and point out everything she says is wrong, or say she's paranoid, or make some other editorial comment on her nature, etc. You do the same thing to me. So you are something of a stalker. (And there's a few more on here as well, like Lynn).

So I would even venture to say maybe it's you thats exhibiting pathological behaviour. I guess, whatever you want to label that behaviour, in the end you're just not a very nice person.

You should get a new hobby.[QUOTE=Gimpy-a-gogo] [QUOTE=JasmineRain] If you're going around pointing out stalkers you just might want to start with your friend Pip.  I'm not stalking anyone.  But if JSNM feels better by stoking the fires of her own paranoia, I'm glad I'm able to help her out by (GASP) responding to a post on a messageboard.  Shaking mad over a simple post of mine?  Seriously, that's pathological.

I think I've got it now...Anyone who espouses a different opinion then you, Cathy or Pip is a stalker.  Thanks for clearing that up...LOL
Sure.\, Lynn, the same way anyone who Jasmine doesn't agree with is "pathological".

I'll share my stalker!

 
Anyone?..........please.......[/QUOTE]



At least someone here has her figured out. You can't stalk somebody too chicken to meet in a freakin' police station.  Anybody but me notice Chicken Lev was AWOL most of Xmas - all when I was in MI?  Mister Tough Guy!  I laugh.

Lorter's point exactly. It's nice to see we can agree on something, Lynn.

At least Lorster offers useful practical advice and thoughtful viewpoints while some others just come around to be nasty.

Well, that proves my point!

Thanks, Lynn.you have no pointHi Everyone,
Well, of course I have to respond to some of the posts. In some thread Pip stated that "chicken lev" didn't meet her at the airport, as if she sent me the information about her flight and arrival time and how to recognize her and her "toughguy" husband. If she had given me the information I may very well have had a couple of Michigan's finest to meet her and her "toughguy" husband and serve them with some legal papers. As a couple of other members told Pip, it is a felony to make threats of violence over the internet as she did to me. She now likes to say meeting her at a police station trying to minimize the felony her big mouth committed. I also carry a copy of the threats that she made to me with me at all times just in case she and her toughguy confront me as she said they were going to and I will have every legal right to make her "toughguy" husband cry like a little baby, take a picture of him crying and a picture of he and Pip being led away in handcuffs and post the pictures here on this forum for everyone to see.
 
Pip, I love the way you continue to brag about how good you are doing on your miracle drug. You posted that you scrubbed floors with your hands. You climbed thru the woods to cut down a christmas tree. You literally ran to do the things you needed to get done, it's as if you don't have rheumatoid arthritis. Oh yeah, YOU DON'T HAVE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS, YOU HAVE PALINDROMIC ARTHRITIS WHERE YOU MAY GET A FLARE THIS WEEK AND MAYBE NOT FLARE FOR A YEAR OR TWO. YOU STILL CONVENIENTLY DO NOT LET THOSE READING YOUR BRAGGING, know THAT YOU DON'T HAVE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS. If you actually had rheumatoid arthritis, your bragging would be such good stuff.
 
Pip, I know how tall my Mom is, how tall my Dad is, how tall my mate is and I even know how tall her grown up kids are and their children. Any idea where I'm going with this? I know that you are very angry with me for the times that I have shown that your posts are either misleading, deceitful or just a flat out lie. Why be mad at me? You should be mad at yourself for the disrespect that you have done to yourself. You were caught in a lie at the palindromic forum and you are angry with the owner of that forum because he won't delete the lie that you told there. You have a mental problem, seriously. You tell so many stories that you can't keep up with them and so you ruin your reputation. It's not surprising that you and Gimpy and JSNM and Lorster stick together. You never know what's true and what's smack. You are all known for posting smack, untruths, misleading and deceitful statements. Anyway, here's two of your posts Pip. Just how tall is your "toughguy" husband? Looks like he's growing at the rate of what? Two inches a year? You're a trip Pip and a real mental mess. Good luck with that, seriously. ...................LEV
 
Pip!

I have decided that I must meet Lev.  Simple as that.  And I will.  It may take me a year to show up at is door - but I will.  I, of course, will take my 6'4" hubby as back up.

Because Lev isn't a troll.  He's a bully.  And bullys are always cowards.  So, he feels safe spewing his venom with the safety of the Internet.  Fab!  For now. 

And then, since I've always wanted to be a published writer - I will write the article and submit it to all magazine publications.  It is tentitively titled 'Hunting the Internet Bully"  He will be named.  As will I.

Topic: Are You an Obnoxious Patient?
Forum: Rheumatoid Arthritis Pip!

Buckeye - I can only go with my experiences. My rheumy and incompetent GP (there, I said it - she misdiagnosed my baby's vitiligo, refused to run ALL thyroid tests when I was getting sick, refused to send me to an endocrine doc etc.) knew what I 'thought' (infection) was going on and ignored it - even when I brought my 6' 2" hubby to help me manage them. Yes, I was freaked on getting this diagnosis - so, you'd think these idiots would be more helpful and understanding...

 

WOW............is a very appropriate heading for this thread.
 
 
Are you trying to egg them on IO???  Dear Idiot Lev - opps - I mean chicken idiot Lev.
 
1)  It is not illegal to make threats over the Internet (unless it is against the President of President Elect.  It is illegal to carry threats out.
 
2)  Considering you are the "jester of cut and paste" you could very well go back to the original Chicken Lev post and see the references to meeting in a police station in my UNEDITED posts.  You may be trying to pull the wool over some AI members eyes by saying I didn't say that before but since just about anybody on this board is smarter than you, I'm assuming they can very well use the search button for the topic "chicken Lev" and read the thing in it's entirity.
 
3)  My hubby is a geek - and still wants to talk to you.  That's your chicken-ness coming out.  He's not afraid of some old fart with RA that has been crippled by Enbrel.  I mean, I have your pics too.
 
4)  I'm absolutely delighted to see that you too have finally come to understand how those moron MD's at the Great U are so wrong and that when I moved into regular RA and they recorded that in my chart and that you intend to prove them wrong.  Well, at least we agree on something. 
 
5)  Your mate?  Give us a break.  No self respecting woman would want you and no man would put up with you.
 
6)  My hubby is the most delicate of his friends.  He looks tiny standing along side them.  I say he is 6'4".  He says he's 6'2 inches.  Playing at the docs and waiting for hours in the room, one time I insisted that I got to measure him.  He's standing on the scale/height measuring thing when I tell him, 'see, you're at least 6'3"' and he jumps off the scale and says 'that can't be right' when the doc finally walks in.  He never lets me finish the measuring.  His license says '6'2".  He would look about 6' 8 or more to you.  Shorty.
 
Let's get real here Lev.  You were nowhere to be found when I was in state.  I stand by what I said.   You are a bully and a coward.  NO WAY would you ever agree to meet in a well lit public place (you were too chicken when I offered that option) and when you didn't agree to the police station....we knew.  Sweetie, I called you out and you failed.  As usual.
 
See you in March?  Assuming you get some cojones by then, Chicken Lev.

So Pip is a nut case, but Lev isn't?

Really, Lynn, you should stop stalking and bullying Pip and get a life.

Lev keeps insisting Pip doesn't have RA, despite being told (Passive agressive behaviour=willful witholding of comprehension), and insists she prove it. How can she prove it without meeting him? So when she offers to meet him and prove it he just acts like nothing was said and all the haters start saying Pip "stalked" him?

Lev is obviously a raving lunatic, Lynn, but you're so blinded by your irrational hatred of Pip you're willing to gloss over that. I think maybe it's you that needs some help.
what self-respecting person would want to meet up w/ someone who has nothing positive to say to them..
Honestly, Pip!  I wouldn't meet you if you spoke to me that way.... 
and... it depends on where the threats were made and what was said as to whether or not stalking and threats are illegal.... different states.. different laws..

I don't have to "prove" anything to you.   I'm doing quite well and I know that bugs the hell out of you.....What a shame that you can't be happy when other people have success controlling their RA.

DX'ing the disease is a difficult thing at times, gimpy.......  I was unDX'd for several years even though I'd had JRA as a child...

I'm sure you'll correct me if I am wrong, but I believe there are more Western induced remissions than any other.......

[/QUOTE]

What lie? She said the same herself, that it took her 8 years to find the "right med", not that it took her 8 years to get DXed.

Regardless, she's hardly a poster case for how to deal with RA.

[QUOTE=Lynn49] I've had RA for 9 years and while it took a long time to get things under control........ It can take quite some time to find the right combo of meds. I tried several before Rituxan and none of them worked very well at all. Now, with Rituxan, I have been able to stop using both MTX and prednisone....
[/QUOTE]



http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19673&PN=4

If I was inclined I could also dig up a post in which Lynn says she sustained joint damage waiting for the rituxan to work, and yet she spends countless hours disparaging AP, which quite a few people have avoided damage on. At least she's stopped pretending Minocin doesn't work as a DMARD, now she's just insisting that if you don't use it all by itself it doesn't count as one.

I'd say trying to dissuade people from a relatively gentle yet hugely viable therapy and other measures which might help them is a tad more "mean and vicious" than someone pointing out Lynn's methods have worked out less than ideal for her.LOL....you guys want to see a real STALKER?....

and you are a poster case??    
 
it isn't because she was sitting on her arse waiting for the right med to bite her....  she was trying things... as we all are ... trying to find the right med that works for us..   not that I'd expect you to understand this.. but only to twist it around to suit your purpose again.
 
Show me someone w/ severe RA who gained remission quickly...  by ANY means.. and that will be the slightest minority..  Maybe you haven't heard.... but THIS.. this is a slick little disease that doesn't follow any rhyme or reason...  and it's almost luck when you hit the right combination at the right time.....   Luck that I'm going to find.
 
 
Tell it to Lynn, Babs, she's the one disparaging different treatments. According to her, AP is "cult medicine" and almost everyday she posts some opinion article about how complimentary and alternative medicine is bogus.

I'm still waiting for you to explain what was my "mean and vicious" lie which you callously accused me of. (I never knowingly "lie", by the way, since I have self-esteem).

According to her, AP is "cult medicine" and almost everyday she posts some opinion article about how complimentary and alternative medicine is bogus.

I'm still waiting for you to explain what was my "mean and vicious" lie which you callously accused me of. (I never knowingly "lie", by the way, since I have self-esteem).

You owe me an apology for slandering me but since you have no integrity I'll never get one. [/QUOTE]
 
The only person who has ever used the word "cult" in referencing AP is Pip. 
 
Of course we know that you never lie...what is truly scarey is that you honestly believe all the riduculous things that you say

I would like to point out that we have gone down this thread because I dared to respond to the original post about a glitch in the Forum over the end of the year and ventured a guess as to why 100s of birthdays with names like xxx xxx xxx, etc. filled a whole screen.

A certain poster thought it was okay for them to take my comment and try to slander me as being "pathological" for taking offense for being publicly bitch slapped.  Well, fine, she has the right to her opinion too.  But I have the right, I thought, to post in this support forum and not be judged about my comments, but stupidly thought this was a democratic forum where people can agree to disagree.  But to purposefully hunt someone down two pages and days later and ridicule them publicly is not behavior that I approve of in any situation under any circumstances and frankly, I am surprised at the comments in support of Jasmine's brutal posts about me.  It was wrong, no one would allow Jasmine's comments to be said in a public setting, and I am still waiting for a public apology, which I assume will never happen.

This is a forum for support and help.  It doesn't help when somebody does what Jasmine did to any poster in here, and look at the fallout of her actions.  We are at each other's throats over what?  Some of us taking traditional medicine straight from the doctor, some of us taking a different form of medicine, some of us not taking any medicine?  Frankly, I think our anger should be focused on the problem - which I don't even think we have a clue what is the problem in here, but I sure know we are angry and frustrated so something isn't right, but it isn't me or Pip or Lynn or Gimpy or Larry or Babs or even Jasmine, I know that much for sure.  We wouldn't be in here if we were all the problem, its something bigger than us, and I would venture to guess its mostly fear.  We are full of fear because of our common disease and the stories we read and our personal experiences to date and our fear of the coming future of our failing health. 

I think its time for this thread to come to an end.  I hope everyone in here has a successful day managing their autoimmune disease today, no matter how you decide to treat it. 

Cathy  Edited to add a thank you to Gimpy for coming to my defense, it was greatly appreciated.

Lynn IS entitled to her opinion... and I have to say she posts the most information of anyone on this site.!!
 
know what< Gimp?  IF and WHEN I find something that gives me remission.... *I* will sing it loudly too... and hope that I can steer someone toward the RIGHT thing that WORKS!!  I think THAT is where Lynn is coming from.......  from her state of REMISSION, baby.
 
not knowing about lying is not a defense for the act......  it's not a legal defense for anything..
 
and .....  Twister....  I have more integrity on the pimple on my butt than you'll ever have..  rest assured I've not said anything that I need to apologize for.

Cathy... JSNM...

didn't see your post ... we were posting at the same time.. 

there IS a common denominator and we are all doing battle in our own way...

it's not the fear alone that makes people argue....  it's the inability to accept differences.... or to disagree without argument...

guilty as charged....   and I doubt it will end here.

[QUOTE=Pip!]

I know of three on this site who are in remission w/ these protocols... LinB, Lynn49, and Marigold... there are probably more.. and then some others who haven't come back here.. out of site.. out of body..out of mind.. they're living!!  and not suffering so they forget about us..

I will reach it....

I am also doing very well on enbrel... I've had NO flares since March when I began enbrel, despite some stressful times (which had been my trigger) My scores according to the RD are great.  I have much less small joint issues and reduced large joint pain/discomfort.  I'm not willing to settle for that!!!!  I want it all.. I want the big show.... remission.  And won't rest til I get it.

What you said is very true Babs. 
 
I continue to post here and on the AF board because I think that it's important people know that remisssion is a very legitimate goal, even when you've had RA for a long time.

On this, we can agree [QUOTE=babs10]

Lynn is entitled to her opinion, and so am I.

lie detector

Main Entry:
3lie
Function:
verb
Inflected Form(s):
lied; ly·ing \ˈlī-iŋ\
Etymology:
Middle English, from Old English lēogan; akin to Old High German liogan to lie, Old Church Slavic lŭgati
Date:
before 12th century
intransitive verb
1 : to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive
2 : to create a false or misleading impression
transitive verb
: to bring about by telling lies <lied his way out of trouble>


If someone doesn't know they're lying, then it's not a lie because there's no "intent to deceive", and they aren't "creating" a false impression.

I didn't lie anyway, intentionally or unintentionally.

So I'm entitled to my opinion about your lack of integrity.
