[Ansteorra] Ants

[Sir Morgan Buchanan]

I talked to a bunch of folks who didn't get ant bites at King's College... 
So I must believe that *I* taste like a double stuffed oreo, because I have 
about 50 (no exageration) ant bites.  And I didn't SEE Tivar put me on those 
ant-hills...  those masta-dons are sneeky.
