Bugs, the purpose?

So, I'm not a camper. I don't like getting dirty. I particularly don't like bugs so my close friends and family were very worried about me moving to the Sudan. Bugs are just annoying, though. I often think if we just cut the food chain at a certain level, could we all survive without bugs? Ultimately I guess not, but surely without mosquitoes (I'm going to ask God about this one day).

Bugs are annoying. If you are familiar with the 80's comedy - Uncle Buck, you'll remember that Tia's boyfriend's name was Bug - why - I'm sure because he was annoying. Hence the comical exchange between he and Uncle Buck:

"You're not a gnat are you, Bug? Wait a minute, bug, gnat. Is there a little similarity? Whoa, I think there is! Ha ha ha" - I love this movie.

I've been suffering with many bugs this week including a stomach "bug" and the plethora of bugs in Kodok. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, I guess.
