Local Soothsayer Startles Town By Predicting Drastic 6-Month Decline In Local Mosquito Population

A local fortuneteller has stunned area residents by predicting a general decline in the local mosquito population until at least May of next year, well-placed sources said. “Well, if you can get past that necklace of animal teeth, the huge wart on her nose, that creepy cackle and the fact that she calls everyone “My Pretty” – her track record at predicting the ebb and flow of the area mosquitoes has been pretty darn good. I just hope she is right again this year!!!” said a local man. “Her unnatural powers do give me the creeps, but who can argue with such success? Plus, if I agree with her maybe she will put a hex on someone else and not me.”
