Locusts (see African news yesterday)*, then frogs, and now these cicadas. Is Someone trying to the us something?
* On the album New Morning, Bob Dylan included a song he wrote about getting an honorary degree and the fact that cicadas-—which he called locusts for the song-—made a deafening sound by the thousands nearby.The man next to him whose head was exploding was Byrds and CSN friend David Crosby, who decided to liven his experience by taking LSD.
Corrected line: Is Someone trying to tell us something.
Sorry.
As a kid We called them locusts here in NYS. Though I did know they were cicada. We also called them Katie-dids.
Cicadas arw NOT a plague.
