On a wild hare yesterday, I bought fake lobster, avocados, and frozen celery, onions, and carrots to make some sort of lobster salad concotion today. Is it possible to do so without actually using mayonnaise? Could I sauté everything but the avocado in butter or olive oil and get something usable at the end?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sure. In Maine, some restaurants make lobster rolls with mayo, and other restaurants make them with melted butter.

I am bondo-ing huge cracks in the porch. This is even less fun because I keep getting interrupted by bickering children.
mr. flea left for Ohio at 8am. He starts work tomorrow.

I just wanted to make sure you were up to date. Also, mindnumbingly bored.
Me, not you, to be clear.
If you need to know what mackle means, don't hesitate to ask.
I have just gotten halfway through of a pile of writing on Jamaican folk magic. Seems everyone finished writing about it decades ago. That's sort of depressing. I'd love to know more about current beliefs and practitioners.

I'm reading about the history of deaf education. In the early 1800s, there was a guy in Philadelphia who read some books about how a school in France was educating deaf kids, so he went and found some deaf kids playing on the street and convinced them to come to his house so that he could try to educate them and test out what he'd just learned. There are so many ways that wouldn't fly today. (This guy later became the principal of the first formal school for the deaf in Philadelphia, and he was accused of molesting some teenage girls there.)
