I seem to have misplaced my Walkman radio,

Weather... warm and severe clear. Temperature is about 70 deg. In other words a perfect day except that I seem to have misplaced my Walkman radio so I'll have to improvise. Let's free associate.
It must be ant season. It is not uncommon to come cross a column of ants running across the sidewalk. But it's usually gone in a day or two. Not like the massive one that started this whole thing that lasted a month. The roots of words or phrases has always interested me. For example, the study of word roots is etymology and the study of insects is entomology stemming from the root word -ent which sounds like -ant. Already we can see a connectioin. Ants are eaten by ravens which is just another name for crow. From whence cometh the phrase: "Let them eat crow" See how simple it is? Just like quantum mechanics. Try it yourself.
Tracing word roots is once again proof that we're all on this flight together.
