God loved the Chiggers

Mark Twain was probably one of the best writers that ever lived. He hated flies. One book he wrote that never was published in his life time was "Letters from the Earth". Mark Twain was not religious in fact he was very anti religious. In order to sell his works his family tried to cloak this as best they could. In "Letters from the Earth" Twain had a lot of fun at the Bible's expense. One very entertaining story he wrote was about how Noah had to get everything on the arch. After Noah had been at sea for six weeks Noah realized he had no flies. Noah had to turn the ship around and get two flies. Twain was always infuriated with flies and could not understand why Noah brought them. Lately Kadizzle and other sailors have been the victims of chiggers. These little bugs are common to the south, but with global warming now seem to be making good homes in North Dakota. If you ever had them you know they are worse than flies. Like Mark Twain Kadizzle wonders what Noah was thinking when he herded two chiggers up the gang plank. Did Noah have any clue what he was doing. This is a picture of one of his crew members after they were bitten by the chiggers.
