The Wicked *itch of Balkan

The citizens of a six acre patch in Balkan Township, Minnesota, have long been terrorized by the local *itch.  She flies around on her broom when she isn't busy raising a new batch of flying puppies.

The dogs, cats, rodents, and humans within her domain have despaired of ever being free of her tyranny.  In fact, they were paralyzed with fear.

One night, there was a Great Storm.  The wind howled, the lightning flashed.  The town crier made a strange discovery in the morning.  It seemed that a saviour had blown in with the storm.
