    Does an upside-down grak sound just like a right-side-up grak? In Wallace world.

    I love that Wallace’s final comment is a short periodic sentence. (That is, unless we count the long chant of mom mom mom mom….) Usually they are long and complex. But their principal characteristic is that the main point is withheld till the end. Winston Churchill, John Milton, and Walt Whitman are seen to have used them to great effect. In this case, the very last word, “yesterday” flash-crystalizes the annoying/hilarious nature of the whole rant. Love it.

    I remember the Hanna-Barbera cartoon character Atom Ant and the 1980s singer Adam Ant. I also remember a 1970s strip in Hotspur Comic called “Charley’s Ant” which I later learned was a play on the title of the play “Charley’s Aunt”.

    Two things: (1) Yes, parenthood is like this, and (2) priorities are an individual state of mind.

    We took a cinnamon breakfast loaf to sister in law’s house. We found all of her ant colonies the next morning.

    Just a little soap destroys their scent trails—and also them, since they breathe through their skeletons. You can’t drown them in water but you can in soapy water, clogging them up.

    I know how that is—when you want to share something but know you’ll forget if you don’t blurt it out now. It’s a fine feature of email as opposed to writing or phoning: it’s easy and acceptable to jot another missive with one more tiny remark that you didn’t include in your previous note.
