Paul, what I am about to tell will make you want to be an ant so badly. First of all, ALL worker ants, ALL soldier ants, ALL nursing ants, ant ALL ant hill maitenance ants are ALL female, and the queen's female too. Paul, do you know what the male ants do? There are very few of all, all they do is do the queen ant all the time for their entire lives. Yup, their job is to do the queen, that's it. *sees Paul crying in jealousy*
Have I ever told the story about the ant war at my house? I know I have, but I might as well tell it again. *lights a pipe and starts the fireplace* Quite a few years ago, there used to be a lot of ants along side my driveway. Well, actually, there still is, but we're focusing on it a while ago. The right side (facing the street) was the black ants. The left side, the red ants. Traditionally, they don't like eachother, competition for food. One day, I walked outside and saw something I shall never forget. TENS OF THOUSANDS of maimed, dead, or just really injured ants COVERED the driveway. There had been a war, an enormous war. And it only took one battle. There was no way of telling who won, there were just as many dead red ants as black ants. The sad part was seeing the worker ants going around to each dead or injured ant, and seeing if they could survive. Many worker ants, of black and red, were pulling their survivors to the side of the driveway. You could see the little ants examining the mutilated ants, going by the ones that didn't have a chance, or the dead ones. It was amazing at how human like it was, the death, the carnage, the sadness. *audience crying, Paul noisily blows his nose* Even in the recovery of the injured ants, red ants would go to injured black ants and kill them, and vice versa. If only you could have seen the number of them, it may have been in the millions. They were medium sized ants, or what was left of them. There hasn't been another battle since, nor have I seen a single fight between any ants. I think the black ants won, because there are very few red ants today, and the land is ruled by the black ants. That is the story of the single battle of the Great War.
