The Locusts Are Coming!

As these ravenous little creatures are eating their way across the Horn of Africa, Southern Asia and even Eastern South America, just what the hell are they?

In the year of Pharaoh Trump 2020, this is probably the least known but most serious threat to humankind. Save a little extra maybe to help the millions that will be left without food.

Nice effort!! I was wrong about the new boards. I like the new and different ways to express ourselves.

The Saharan sandstorm is here.
I have fears.
:astonished:

The world has already gone to hell, just another disaster of 2020. 2020 seems like a good numbered year to end it all…

This looks like a job for Saint Urho, legendary grasshopper chaser!

And they are kosher.

And the locusts sang, yeah, it give me a chill
Oh, the locusts sang such a sweet melody
Oh, the locusts sang their high whining trill
Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me
Dylan, of course

And now they hit New Dehli, India. :frowning_face: :cricket: :cricket: :cricket: :woried:

We should just do the same thing we did to exterminate the Rocky Mountain locust.

If only we knew what it was.
