I Hate Fire Ants!

As the welts start to grow on both feet and legs, I just want to share that bit of information with you. Stepped in a hidden mound in the back yard while mowing this morning.

Indeed, I've long since come to the conclusion that the fire ant is proof that Satan may have had a hand in creating the world. After all, I find it difficult to believe that a loving and just God would have created fire ants.

1 I was working on a car making keys on the back lot of what is now Plant Ford in Spring when I realized I had fire ants all over my legs. I stripped down and started swatting them off, not caring that I was in my skivies and dancing around like a drunken indian trying to make it rain.

I hope you get over them soon, they are no fun at all when they blister up and ooze.

2 About a year ago I got over 100 bites in an incident. I took a cellphone call in the yard, and planted my foot in a mound next to a tree root. That was ugly -- and I discovered that the best solution is to use the same astringent that teenagers use on acne. It dries those suckers right out!

Fortunately, today's yield is only about 10 -- and that means I can go back out and finish the lawn before the nest storm rolls through.
