As a matter of fact there are signs at all the ponds that say "Do not
FEED the alligators".

They can be quite mellow. As in you can carefully pick them up. And
that's feral pythons. But if they bite they can bite good. Tetanus
shot good. We have a resident python, but I don't see him or her
often. I don't go out after dark.

I remember seeing that one the table once some time after I had been at
my great uncle's farm when he slopped the pigs. Many years later I
helped my mother with Christmas or maybe Thanksgiving supper. She had
bought the ingredients and asked me to prepare it. It was surprisingly
delicious.

My thesis adviser's parents had a winter home in Florida and they had a
neighbour who used to feed fish to an alligator. One day the gator
gabbed has hand and IIRC it was so badly damaged he ended up losing it.

I know them from the Netherlands. There was talk of them coming to
Australia, but I don't know if they did.

Isn't that the one that also calls for a can of those crispy
dried onions on sale. They always go on sale at holidays.
I've never tried them but might be good.

When people moved to "Jilligan's Island" in the 1980's after the
property was developed they were mostly snowbirds looking for vacation
homes. (A large number of Dataw homeowners are seasonal residents.)
These people didn't have a clue about alligators. Thought they were
quaint. So yes, they'd feed them. Then peoples pets started going
missing... and the DO NOT FEED signs went up.
 
Just a few years ago there were some people pet-sitting for a couple who
had gone out of town. The dog somehow got away from them. Parts of the
dog were found a day or so later in one of the ponds. Very sad. Never
underestimate a hungry alligator.
 
I don't live near one of the ponds but alligators get around. I think
it was 2010 when I got a call from my neighbor who had gone out to water
the plants on her patio. "Did you know there's an alligator in your
back yard?" I didn't know what to do (other than stay inside) so called
Security. I expected them to call a professional critter catcher or
animal control or something. Nope. They sent one of their guards over
with a long pole with a wire loop on the end. By herself! She managed
to get that loop around the gator and dragged it between our houses,
across the street and between two other houses to a pond. Amazing! I
have to wonder if that was in her job description. ;)

We have this Thermomix. It was a gift. It does everything except bake.

I'm not sure. Possibly small amounts of s&p but the acid from the
strawberries cuts through the oil of the avocado.
It's worth a try since you probably have both at hand.

Do you add anything? Sugar, salt or pepper?

What we can get here is Korean. It's good but you don't want to be the
only one who didn't eat it.

My wife was at the bank today and a white lady was twirling a mask in her
hand saying that you don't have to wear a mask in the bank. My guess is that
she said it to my wife because she was the only other white lady in there.
Everyone had masks on and were struck speechless. My guess is that she was
one of those nutty/pushy Trumpeter ladies. Her lord and master, king trump
said it was okay.
 
I wish I was there because I could have used the laugh. Oddly enough, I was
in the same building on the 4th floor having my teeth worked on. That was a
4 hour ordeal.

I have to go to the dentist tomorrow. It shouldn't take 4 hours though
.. hopefully!!

The drier the air, the longer and further the aerosols float. Moisture
is bad for the virus.

4 hours with your mouth open would be cruel. Even one hour
leaves you with a sore jaw, just holding it open so long.

To me as a Canada noob, the Canadian trademark is 'oot'.
