    Yeah, I was gonna say ant nest, even if Parker DID go and blurt it out (tsk). I remember one year in the army up in the Northern Territory somewhere actually HEARING what I suspect were the ants on the ground. It got me shit scared for a while, very Blair Witch feeling. It just felt like that place was very, very evil.

    Yeah, I got rid of the bit about begin the most poisonous, but i should put it back, cause then I found this...

    I think there are some places which just scare me to death, there's something weird about parts of Australia. I mean. Look at that movie Picnic at Hanging Rock? Plus parts of The Cross are pretty worrying...

    Down in Gippsland where I grew up we had Jumping Jacks. Mean little bastards. I learned young that they don't appreciate being poked by a young boy with a stick.

    These are good Oecophylla smaragdina - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ...As described here How to Lick an Ant in Australia - Features - World Hum I've tried them a few times myself. I didn't go gentle though. I ate them.
