The Money in Cicadas

There is a political ad on gop.gov going around right now where Kerry is compared to a cicada Whether or not you like the comparison, it is a striking image. For some reason, where I live in Nebraska was spared from the cicada invasion this year. I am not complaining, but I wouldn’t mind seeing some of these bugs up close again. They only come around every 17 years. Last time I saw them, I was 8 and my mom paid me a penny for every one I killed. That was the easiest 2 bucks I ever made. If you want to see some more photos of cicadas, here is a gallery you can check out. Thanks to Kiplog for bringing the cicada gallery to my attention.
