Greg watched an ant climb a blade of grass this morning...
When he reached the top, his weight bent the blade down to the ground.
Then, twisting his thorax with insectile precision, he grabbed hold of the
next blade.
In this manner, he traveled across the lawn, covering as much distance
vertically as he did horizontally, which amused and delighted Greg.

moment of heightened awareness in which everything becomes clear...
Yes, hunched over that ant on his hands and knees, Greg suddenly knew what
he had to do...
Quit drinking before noon!
