Default God Smites Utah

God clearly doesn't approve of polygamists or white bigots.

I'm awaiting Pat Robertson's proclamation of same.

Expect it's pretty close to Steve's property, or it should be.



Hordes of hungry grasshoppers invade Utah
By MIKE STARK – 8 hours ago

TOOELE, Utah (AP) — An ambitious director might look at Mitch
Halligan's property and see an instant B-movie classic: "Invasion of
the Grasshoppers."

The place is overrun with the greasy little bugs. With each step you
take on his property, the squirmy inch-long grasshoppers jump for
cover in every direction. Those that don't crunch under foot perch
themselves atop tall grass stalks, crawl up pant legs or munch through
gardens.

Across the road isn't much better. Grasshoppers blanketed the
neighbors' entryway a few days ago and forced them to come in through
the back door.

"I'd call this the closest that I've seen to a plague in a long time,"
Halligan said.



Next up? Frogs, lice, and slaying of first-born.
