My husband has Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). We never know what is going to trigger an episode. By epsode I mean abdominal cramps, and some heinous diarrhea. It hits within moments of eating. If he eats something one night and has no episode, we never know if two weeks later eating the exact same thing will send his system into fits of IBS. So there are no foods that we know to avoid. Heck, eating some nutter-butter crackers set him off tonight! Some evenings we can't even leave the house because a toilet has to be nearby.
It seems to be a mystery condition. His General Practitioner gave him some medicine to 'stop colon spasms', thinking that would help, but it has done nothing beneficial at all. I'm thinking we need to take him to a Gastrointerologist. But from what I've heard, there is just no cure.

Does anyone else out there have this, or lives with someone who has it. If so, what on earth can be done? It is miserable.

My father passed away a year ago. He was a Harley rider. I know that you can purchase a head stone with a Harley on it. But I am unsure of where to obatin it. I only want one head stone for him. And I know how much he loved his bike. I am about ready to take the picture that I have of him on his bike and ask someone to special make the perfect headstone for his final resting place. He was also a Vietnam Vet. And it now has been a year and he still does not have a marker on his final resting place. It is completley wrong. Thank you for any help that someone can give.

I have just started to read books in the supernatural fantast genre. I really like the Kim Harrison series (Dead Witch Walking...) and I have been intrigued by the Laurell K Hamilton Anita Blake books. Are they much like the Kim Harrison books? Are they too vampire detailed? I don't know much about vampire lore or anything. What were your general opinions on the series?

Please tell me what this movie is.

It was I’m sure a Disney movie. And I think the film must be 10 years or so old.
It was about a boy. He’s working on the computer and suddenly there’s a loud noise, (thunder) and all the contents in the internet goes to this boy’s head.
After that he becomes a really genius. And he can answer to any question or speak in any language.
Please say what this movie is? (I want a full explanation)
And tell me the full story.
If you don’t know the real answer, do not reply to this.

I would just like to know what exactly started the Vietnam war. I hear that it was partly Kennedy's fault because he approved of the assaination.

It's true. My book of fairy tales says so. You just cannot see them because no human can ever see the end of the rainbow. You just have to have faith. I know they are real because so many lucky things happen to me because I believe. I just don't understand why everyone denies their existance. How else would you explain all the gold in the world?
