Aunts and Uncles

For pets, most people have a dog or a cat, some have a bird, and a few have an art farm. An art farm---how unusual---no barking, no biting, no scratching, no chasing, no chatter, no mess. Just watch the hundreds or thousands of ants silently going about their task of building this, building that---like tireless, non-government engineers. I guess the owner could become emotionally attached to particular arts in the colony. I think that tomorrow I'll buy myself an art farm. Let's see . . . Ffwwweeet! Here, Fido, Rex, Oscar, Waldo, Ruthie, Marduk, Bob, Hazel, Dopey, Winston, Freddie, Jezebel, Clyde, Elmer . . .
