Folks!</span></font> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Well,
after seeming to be on a downhill slide, the ants have made a big
comeback. Everytime I think I've found the border of the colony, I
discover frenzied ant activity deeper into the brush. The hauling away of
4-barrels full of ant hill, plus giving them huge doses of ammonia, sugared
borax, and even the grits (!) did not kill them or kill them all, and obviously
didn't kill the queen, who must be tucked away in some hidden chamber along
with a bazillion larve. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Determined
not to use commercial poison, there is only on thing left to do. I must
employ the<b><span style='font-weight:bold'> Groo Method</span></b>. No,
no, not attack them with swords. No, I mean<b><span style='font-weight:
bold'> I must go on an unfettered rampage of wanton death and destruction
wholely out of proportion to the perceived problem.</span></b> This
weekend I will take my trusty maddox and shovel (better than swords for the
task at hand) and chop and dig and dig and chop and haul away or destroy every
last little section and chamber of the ant colony. I don't care if I end
up with a 15 foot wide, 4 foot deep crater; the ants must die! Then maybe
just for fun, I'll seal it off with some old bags of concrete I've had lying
around for years. Ha! That'll show 'em. So that's it. This
weekend. It's me or the ants!! (So if you don't hear from me,
you'll know happenned.)</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
