My first ever trip into Florida I ran right into a gigantic swarm of them. It was so bad I had to pull over and wait for the swarm to pass. It was yellow gook all over my car. So bad it clogged the radiator and totally obscured forward visibility. Glad I don't live in Florida. Too hot, too many bugs, not enough mountains to fly around, to humid, too many "tropical storms", too many old people :) GO WEST YOUNG MAN!

Any Floridian will tell you we have bugs. All kinds. Some sting, some stink others are just - yuk. Most Yankees think the roach (we call it the Palmetto bug) is the State Bug. But any Floridian will tell you that one bug defies all logic. The Love Bug. With the 'extra' water we've getting lately, the Love Bugs are coming early. What do they look like? Individually they are black and about 3/8" long. However you never see one alone. You see, the male and female are continually hooked up - copulating. They fly around, (female in the lead of course) in copulating bless. Figuring the aerodynamics in that configuration would no doubt use days of computation on the top super computers. If you see one alone, its probably queer. They seem also to have an unmistakable drive to also head for the nearest moving car. One day while north bound on I-95 just west of Melbourne, I found myself along with a number of olther drivers, having to pull over and clean my windshield. They (the Love Bug) had found to ultimate place to face oblivion while in sexual bless. Made an upper spike in the windshield cleaner sales. Fortunately, they are a low altitude bug so unless you do a lot of low buzz jobs, you're only exposed during takeoffs and landings. Make sure you clean them off right away, cause their combined body fluids will eventually eat into your paint job. As a matter of fact, the American automobile is the only know predator of the Love Bug. No birds will eat them. The lizards don't eat them. No fly fisherman will tie a fly to look like one, cause fish won't eat them. I've even seen our green frog spit one (actually two) out! The Love Bug has no reason to exist (outside of copulating). They don't bite and they are not part of the food chain. Maybe they here to show us that copulating can be the "end all" mantra of life. Just wonder if they are having one long climax or - - - - . Anyway they're here.
