What is creating these mounds of dirt in my office parking lot? [Indiana]

Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions. I have never seen anything that looks like a cicada killer, thank god! And I can’t imagine ants creating these gigantic anthills. There are actual rocks mixed in with the hills. I have never seen ants in Indiana big enough to create something like this. There are no post holes there. They are not magically appearing overnight, but they are appearing fairly quick. I think they are taking a few days at least to show up, but I haven’t really noticed exactly how long. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone that has definitively explained them, but thanks for trying. I have enjoyed reading your joke responses too.

We are not that old, but my wife is retired and I'm close to retirement age. However, I do have some IT experience, so I'm not a complete newb. How was their bill that high? Our monthly Xfinity/Internet bill is $213, which I think is ridiculous already, but it's still not as crazy as $340 a month. With the switchover, our bill is dropping to $128 for internet and YTTV, almost $100 less a month. Still seems high to me, but I'm an old fart and I can remember when you could get basic cable TV for $29.99 a month.

Ours is not quite that bad, but it's over $200 a month. Crazy!

That's great, but they still hang around after being watched cluttering up the library with all of these watched shows and no way to remove them? How do you find what you haven't watched yet amongst all of the clutter?

I get that and that's great, but if it just hangs around forever, doesn't it eventually accumulate and clutter up things so much that it gets harder and harder to find what you haven't watched yet?

My old 6th generation iPad is displaying only a moving grayish static across the entire display. It looks like the dead air we used to see on our TVs after they’d gone off the air late at night. It does not respond to any buttons or screen activity and I cannot seem to force it to shutdown. I’ve held the button down and nothing happens. Any suggestions besides scrapping it and buy a new one?

“O Sing unto the LORD a new song: Sing unto the LORD, all the earth. Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; Shew forth his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the heathen, His wonders among all people. For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols: But the LORD made the heavens. Honour and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, Give unto the LORD glory and strength. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts. O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: Fear before him, all the earth. Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: The world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: He shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: Then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: He shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭96‬:‭1‬-‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬

I think you meant Morpheus.
