Clinton tried to warn W. of the Cicadas. But W. wasn't listening. He thought it was some kind of twisted clinton riddle: yada, yada, yada, cicada. It's a real shame.
Aw, shucks... (digging it dirt with big toe, head ducked, blushing)
I'm humbled that you admire my gift for discerning the importance of cicada invasion threads.

Thanks Everyone,
I honestly don't know where I came up with this stuff.
I was coding a web page for my site, and all of a sudden this topic crept into my head.
So I started putting keys to file as I usually do, and this is what I came up.
I've thought of some more, but I figured the first was long enough.
Feel free to share this on other Boards if you like, just attribute me as the source, and post a link to this thread, or the one on my site.

I heard that C.A.N.S.W.E.R. is blaming Bush for unleashing war on the Iraqi cicadas.
One man's cicada is another man's freedom fighter...
Are you kidding? This article is freakin' hilarious!
Keep up the great pinging! :-)
We lived in the DC area when one of these invasions happened 2 cycles ago.
We had a year old German Short Haired pointer. She was a great protector of the family, with a huge appetite and not much will power nor brains when it came to eating.
She gorged herself on these critters. I had locked her up in the shed where I keep our lawn mower to keep her from ODing on the Cicadas. She got mad and chewed up everything that wasn't metal that was in the shed. She ruined a lawnmower, handles on rakes, shovels and saws.
After that, I just left her out to gorge every night. She looked like a blimp when the Cicadas stopped coming out.
ROFL!!
I had a dog named Mog that ate a lawnmower one time. She also ate three boxes of nails, an unknown quantity of rocks, and a series of hoses. My mom has her now (she was a puppy of one of my mom's dogs... long story how she got Mog back) and Mog has gone on to eat all my mom's hoses and heaven only knows what else (Mom doesn't keep close track of what's outside in her yard). When she gets real bored she digs under the fence as if she's trying to get to China.
This dog was a year old. She literally ate everything that wasn't hard steel on a new Sears mower. I had to buy a new one.
She did this for about 3-5 years. I used to have to buy Mexican Habanero (sp)sauce and pour it on hoses, the tv cable connections and anything that was coated with rubber or a plastic that was like rubber.
She attacked a porcupine twice. After each attack she had to under go general surgery to have the quills taken out. The vet gave me a break on the second time in.
She was worthless as a hunting bird dog, but she was an incredible watch dog. She broke up two robberies next to us in Sacramento and probably prevented two here. She was loyal to our sons and my wife. When I traveled, she went into overdrive as super watch dog until I got back. Then she would sleep for about 20 hours.
