Hrmm ... I already have some store-brand dijon at home that I'll use.
I don't quite get the grey poupon thing. Is it just that it is
chunkier? What's so great about it? I'm not sure if I've ever had
it. I just remember those silly "Do you have any grey poupon?"
commercials.

Chunky! I hope not. It is a milder mustard made with white wine and
has a completely different flavor than regular mustard.

Sure, different than yellow mustard, but is it that much different from
other dijon mustards?

the best best best, worth every bit of the $3 per jar it costs. It has moved

delicious. Now if I could just give up the burger altogether. Baby
steps.

Well, maybe it's worth trying at some point.

Burgers aren't necessarily bad; depends on what they are and what you put on
them. We've found some 9% fat burgers presliced and packaged at the store
that are absolutely delicious. Then again, we live in cow country and
anything made with beef is good.

I have a recipe for burgers that are half-mushroom ... even messier than
normal burgers to make, but they were low-fat and very flavorful. DH calls
them "meatloaf burgers" because I guess that's what he thinks they taste like.

LOL!

No, but since you've decided to act superior and all-knowing,

You see, that's the point you can't see through your academic
credentials,
I'm not all-knowing that's why I rerun the tests when I get back
questionable or unusual test results that I don't understand before
I
put
a cat through a battery of stressful tests.

Let me get this straight. You get back results you don't understand.
You
rerun them to see if there is anything different.

Yes! I'm glad you finally got it! Took you long enough. LOL!




Do the ideas of "statistical significance" and "predictive power" have
any meaning to you? So now you have two results. If they differ,

It looks like you didn't get it after all... I give up on you Howie. You
just don't know enough about cats.

Ah. WEll, I only get the original so that I do not know.

[snipped a bunch of stuff about two people not getting along]

Fascinating conversation, really, but I thought I'd share the recipe
I'm
going
to try tonight:

http://www.deliciousdecisions.org/cb...?RecipeID1=166

Easy and hopefully yummy!

...and makes more sense than Howie'! LOL!



I am indeed laughing over your antics.

Normally, I wouldn't bother with someone so wrapped in his own ego and
desire to be one-up.

It only seems that to you because your ego is bigger than mine! LOL!


Unfortunately, you are putting out inaccurate
information,

Confirming a questionable test result is inaccurate infrormation?

Who was your mentor, Moe, Larry or Curly?


That
is not useful to the group.

Confirming a questionable test result is not useful information? I think
you have a much more serious problem than just being impressed with your
education.

It is wonderful in deviled eggs, too.

We love mushrooms. Care to share your recipe?

Are you normally this arrogant, or are you making a special

What is your experience?

He just gets this way sometimes. "It's his way".



Understood. Of course, some ways are pathological, some are pitiful,
and
some are both.


...and yours are egomanical.

Grinning....who was the first to make personal comments in this
discussion? It's been my experience that when two parties start in a
technical discussion, and one starts namecalling and handwaving about
"common sense", that person is floundering due to lack of knowledge.

That's only because you don't have any common sense! LOL!






My mentors impressed on me the idea that
professional knowledge is something to "pay forward."


Too bad they didn't you common sense.


Indeed. Too bad any mentors you may have had didn't you grammar.


Too bad any mentors I may have had didn't me grammar?

ROTFLMAO

Pack it in now, you chaps. You both have knowledge we'd all like to share.
It's not a competition after all.

I hope I never lose the humility to recognize that someone may have some
information that I don't, the consideration if that should be integrated
with other information I do have, and the professional ethics to share,
gracefully, what I do know. My mentors impressed on me the idea that
professional knowledge is something to "pay forward."


Too bad they didn't you common sense.

Philp, it's too bad no one ever taught you either grammar or courtesy.
flluuusshhh...

It has to be Grey Poupon Country Style Dijon. Grey Poupon also makes
regular Dijon that is not really too different from others. Next time you
are in the
grocery, take a look at the Country Style. You can see the difference. It is
all a matter
of personal taste, but if you have not tried this, you might want to. I
guess the best
way to describe it is less bite, more flavor. Less vinegar, more spices,
maybe?

I need to understand this argument a bit better. Are you a qualified
veterinary surgeon who specialises in cats, Phil?
