      So this morning my laptop is full of ants. Yeah, ants. All over the surface, climbing in and out of the keyboard, going in and out of the vents. AARRGGHH

          Did a 3.5 mile mountain climb. That was pretty cool. The views were insane. Will share once they upload.

            @dominica is laughing pretty hard while editing my latest article. Apparently it is a little more harsh than usual, lol.

                    I hear they like to have a good buzz in the morning... 😄

                    Down to hours - not days... less then fourteen and it'll be time to pass the torch.

                    Watching a thunderstorm just on the other side of town.. watching the in/out flows and how the rain falls... weather is a neat thing to watch.. and respect.

                    Going to do some more reading on Sharepoint and see what goes from there... And tracking Gru's delivery service... 😄

                        In Africa we would lose some electronic about once a week to ants eating the wiring.

                                    That used to happen to my macbook pro all the time. I never eat near it or while using it. It was odd. Never had it happen to other laptops just the unibody macbook pro. There must be something sonically that attracts them to that over the others. The metal likely conducts some electricity (some people can even feel the tingle from the unibody) so that's probably why.

                                      It had nothing to do with food being on it. It was charging in the kitchen and in the path of the ants going from the electrical socket where they come out of to wherever they were looking for food. It was dark and warm so they investigated.
