from the book of questions

continuing my adaptation, and following the advice from dr li to do yoga in the morning "when the air is clean", after my usual getting out of bed struggle, i set my yoga matt and did a half hour session
when i finished, i realised that there were a couple of ants in the dvd player
i killed them but then there was another one, and another one, and one more
until i opened the thing and saw a whole colony of tiny white ants inside the bloody thing
it took the whole of 15 minutes to get rid of all of them, there must have been over a 100 of them inside
i didn't realise i had acquired an ant jungle-zoo when i signed up for the house!!!!

a good friend of mine bought "the book of questions" by gregory stock with all sort of questions that prompt debates
one that he recently posed us by email was "For an all-expense-paid, one-week vacation anywhere in the world, would you be willing to kill a beautiful butterfly by pulling off its wings? [What about stepping on a cockroach?]"
i have to say with the ants, and after the amount of baygon i've sprayed on them.....
