Response to: What Junior Feese said

By Ralph R. Waggener

The Ribeye sandwich was great. Everyone at South Central Printing who got one - ten (10) people in all - was bragging on how good it was.

That makes you appreciate the softball team even more knowing all the work needed to carry out this fundraiser was done taking care to do such a good job and make sure that the meal was worth every cent.

Good job! -Ralph Roy Waggener

Kentucky Color - Jar Fly Monster Molt

By Billy Joe Fudge

Oh yea, I know it's a cicada in the accompanying photo. In fact it is an annual cicada as opposed to the 17 year cicada we call the 17 year locust.

At any rate this dried skin is just that, dried skin. The back has been split and the Jar Fly has split, gone, vacated the premises.

The male is singing and the mute female is listening. Then somewhere in their one week above ground they will procreate and begin the process all over again.
