You pronounce it "aaawnt," Joe? Even after all those years in Oklahoma? How very...um...how...uh...pretentious... Wink

Great piece on ant mass suicide, btw. How DO you do that? Empathize with the creepy crawlies, I mean. You give the little critters names in your imagination or what?

Really, Joe, it's bad enough to cast your pearls before swine...but...ANTS??? Laughing Laughing Laughing

You should be writing for publication, you know.

Hey, Child, I'm sorry 'bout the thread derailment.

I looked up ant suicide and didn't find squadoo online. I suspect (in reality), if they really do kill themselves, it's probably just that they stop feeding.

Third prod for Joe.

Child got the correct answer from Verbal Lee, so I suppose that's when we derailed. I'm gonna prod Joe as well. <prod>

Three cheers and a tiger to the ants!
Death to the mosquitos!

Actually, ants act with their old and ill members sometimes as if they were garbage.


Prodding Joe as well.

Some commented that it was actually a move down, but the forward-thinking people in their family thought differently.

its always nice to be able to ring a bell and get dinner, to wave a hand and dismiss crowd of annoying people, to make a call and have what ever you want... does she have room for a son?
