Yardwork. If I let it go for more than a few days, it looks like the
forest primeval around here. Apparently we have a new
crop...cicadas...about a billion of them in the woods, drinking,
screwing, eating, and making lots of cicada noises. There's gotta be a
way to export them for Big Dollars.

Those *things make great fish bait!

I was wondering about that. I sorta figured bass would go crazy for
them, but I didn't know. Bass, other species? One wondered into the
house when I opened the screen door and our five pound "Smidge" cat
thought it was a wonderful plaything until she bit it into two pieces.
She didn't eat it, though.

Well, you can put them on a hook and they'll wiggle for seemingly
hr's. . They're a great live bait for about any pond/river fish at
least around here...
