Seven year Cicadas were a plague last year, but with the summer heat on us and their racket again filling the air, we should review what Cicadas really are.
These creatures are not poisonous and do not have a stinger. They serve no known useful function. They are not part of the food chain. Half of the population are males who spend their time singing or calling for the females to mate.
The annoyance from their loud singing, which can reach 100 db is almost unbearable, and is tempered by the fact that the periodic cicadas are only out for 4 to 6 weeks. While here they are most annoying. Their bodies cover our cars' windshields as we drive. They are forever flying into us or alighting upon us. Yet they seem proud of their flying skills (which are limited to say the least). They are unwanted, loud, obnoxious, rowdy, driven it seems to a search for sex and determined to thoroughly annoy the human race. Many wonder where they come from.
The best theory is that these obnoxious useless creatures are really fighter pilots returned to their natural state.............!

Yeh, but fighter pilots serve a function as birds of prey! It is the bravado at the bar that may offend the more timid of bird men! And it is a well know fact that a nurse would rather screw a fighter pilot but wants to marry a Doc!

Pete,
You describe the Puerto Ricans and Cubans in South and Central Florida very well...."....unwanted , loud, obnoxious, rowdy, driven, it seems, to a search for sex,and determined to thoroughly annoy the human race."
Thankyou,
CLIFF
