I never heard of a cicada, either

Ok, I'm not much of a nature lover to begin with, but this is just wicked gross: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18780937/

Thank goodness I live in New England, where we don't have natural phenomenons of Biblical proportions. If you've ever read the book of Exodus, these cicadas have a smacking resemblance to the locust plagues of ancient Egypt. Give me a nor'easter any day....

We have cicadas in Maryland. They came three years ago and come out about once every 17 years. Everyone made a big deal out of them, but to be honest, I never really saw them.
