I still feel like a loser, but I did find a cable channel that airs H:LOTS in Spanish.Nobody's voice sounded weird, either...thought that was cool, although it does seem like only the kind of thing a loser might notice.

No, it sounds cool. I love hearing a really GOOD dub.

In other news, I have decided on a name for the cat formerly known as Spiderman. Due to his dense tabby markings making a black widow's peak, I have named him Eddie. As in Eddie Munster. It feels right.

Thanks for all the input. I am now including more eggs in my diet as a way to lower my cholesterol.

Will look into bilberry and black currant

Mastering poached eggs is a good way to maximize their nutritional eggy goodness, and also it feels Fancy and Not Deprived.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I can feel ita giving me the stinkeye, but there is no bad way to cook eggs. I felt like a magician last summer when I realized how good egg salad is with an avocado in the mix.

Mashed or chopped avocado? Because I love egg salad and am still looking for the perfect recipe.

A friend gave me an electric egg poacher and I _loooove_ it. So easy, tasty and foolproof.

I have no problem with that. Poached eggs, life is easier. Boom.

I'm still a big fan of shirred eggs. yum!

Hey, I have a question for the hivemind. My cat is starting to develop renal disease and needs special renal formula food. Any recs on good brands? Thanks

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Burrell, I'm sorry to hear about your cat's impending renal disease. Without being able to read labels, I'd go with Iams/Eukanuba over Hill's. But the key really is reading the labels. Here is a well-researched article (citations included at the end) written by a lay person who loves cats and has some mad research skills. [link] It was posted in a threaded forum and was bigger than a single post allowed. It is entitled "A Primer On Urinary Tract Health in Cats". Unfortunately, some of the replies including my own got mixed in between the posts that are the article, so do keep scrolling down until the end. IIRC the main focus was on FLUTD but did also include information pertinent to renal failure. Depending on when your vet graduated, it is entirely possible that "That Woman Sez" is more educated on the topic of feline nutrition and renal health. Until recently any classes on nutrition at veterinary schools were merely seminars taught by reps from Iams or Hill's and not to be relied upon to truly educate.
