    I like the periodical cicadas because it reminds me of a simpler time living on the farm and it was a sign of Summer. Besides they only live up to 25 days.

    Building an “underground bunker” would be poetless as cicadas emerge from that direction,

    I feel like ‘Cicada-pocalypse’ would have sounded better…

    Don’t have them where we live, so don’t know. Where do all the bug carcasses go when they all die? Seems like they’d be pretty thick underfoot.

    The license won’t matter if he’s not in the Operating Engineers union.

    Sounds like an idea for a horror movie. A really bad one.

    We could barely hear them from the woods behind us here in FVH Glenn. A coworker who lives in Belleville said they’re a lot worse there. They should be over about now except for the regular annuals.

    Eno is still worried that they’ll get the beer. Burp! :)

    No, he’s got a dog license. The backhoe has a backhoe license.

    Fang’s never used a backhoe, but he has used tobacco.

    Cause he does, that’s what he uses to bury his bones.

    I love the sound they make. Makes me think of home in IA back in the 50’s and 60’s.
