Of politics and lizzard burgers


“A scientist who runs a conservation program, Javier Laureano, notes that the reptiles' sheer population (estimated to be 4 million—slightly higher than Pueryo Rico's human population) creates a contentious situation. Iguanas snarl traffic, devour crops and people respond by plowing them down with cars and setting them ablaze.”

Sounds a lot like Washington, DC.

Yeah, but at least no Iguanas have been elected (that I know of)...

We used to run over them all the time on the runway at Roosy Roads...

Not to my knowledge either, NFO, but how can we really tell? Perhaps we could recruit Orly to run an investigation.
