***I’d like to see him left like that on a red ant hill “somewhere between Borger and Pampa.” ***

I’ve been bit by them red ants! They are not a laughing matter!

The Apaches used to stake down a captured enemy over such a bed. There would be nothing but bones left in a few days.

When I lived in the Philippines, I had a big nest of those things outside my house. When I caught shells while snorkeling, I would clean out as much of the mollusk as I could, and let the ants get the rest. They left it utterly spotless inside, no stinky odor at all.

Another time, a friend and I were humping around in the jungle, while we were stopped taking a breather and figuring out where to go to next, I looked down to see red ants crawling all over my boots and pants. And there were some on the inside. It felt like someone was touching a lit cigarette over and over again on my legs.
