In Louisiana we have these varmints. Small varmints. I believe they infest other southern states as well. They are called Fire Ants. They come by their name naturally.
After carrying the trash to the garbage barrel, I retreated to our homes rest room doing the manly thing of standing well over the commode or water closet, close enough so that there would be no ensuing mess that would raise the ire of the lady of the household. When behold, in the middle of a pleasant relieving of the bladder I feel a familiar and not so pleasant stinging on my ankle. I look down and there is one of our nefarious little beasts doing his thing to my skin.
Now I ask you fine gentleman. Would it be best to immeadiately reach down and send the little bastard to an early grave, thereby reliving my self on an ongoing aggravation and painful experience. (AND making a considerable mess of the bathroom floor, thus raising the ire of the lady of the household) OR
Should I have simply endured the pain and remain in the good graces of my bride of 48 years.
Extra point, we had just finished discussing my next scope purchase and I must say she was not pleased to hear the price of the Nightforce I want. Next extra point, before one makes a reference to my being henpecked or a Karen or any other despicable term, consider that she is an absolute wizard with Keeping me financially solvent. (And does not complain about doing it. ). And she likes guns and she likes shooting and she likes hunting and she likes fishing and she likes sailing. You try to find a good looking girl that meets all those qualifications!
