Looks like I got out of university just in time, if I were a couple years younger I'd still be stuck in New Jersey with all the cicadas. Good thing I'm in Canada where the only news about cicadas is on the Discovery Channel.

What are you going to do? Flip out? Squish a cicada? Beat them with drumsticks? Castrate Straha? What? :P

I'm going to flip out by squishing a bunch of cicadas with my drumsticks after letting them nibble on Straha's--AHHHHHH!! *runs away from the swarm of cicadas*

What? People eat fucking oysters! How the shit is THIS gross? Eh? Hmmph. Anyway, good source of protien, and they're crunchy. Also Dead.
Just be careful. A pregnant mother cicada...unchewed maggots burrowing into your stomach unfelt...then WOOSHKA! A swarm of cicadas burst out of your chest just like Bishop or whatever his name in Alien.

Now if only the constant news stories on the damn things were done in the same format as the propaganda bits from the Starship Troopers movie. . .

Im going to gather as many up and coral them into a specially made coral (Cardboard is very abundant here). From there, I shall train them in various martial arts and teach them the use of weaponry. I even have a schedule planned.

Weeks 1-3: Basic Training
Weeks 4-5: Hand-tohand combat
Weeks 6-.....

Wait a minute. How long do they live again?
