Researchers at America’s top university, Harvard, wondered how is it that lizards aren’t all blown away when a hurricane hits a Caribbean island. To study how the little reptiles manage high winds, they rigged up a leaf blower to direct its force on a wooden dowel. “But there’s only so much a little lizard can take. At 108 mph (174 kph), it was flying lizard time.” More

I wonder how high the wind speed has to be before we see
flying Harvard evolutionary biologists.
What dolts! Did it even occur the the geniuses that the lizards might TAKE SHELTER!

Flying Lizards?!
Question for evolutionary biologists: How long did it take for the trillions of nerve connectors in the human body to fire correctly in any given circumstance?
Creation is the correct answer!
The same thing that allows them to stick/climb walls…….sticky fingers. Hell, demoncrats should understand sticky fingers, only they use theirs to thieve instead of explore and survive.
Did the American taxpayer pay for this interesting, yet incredibly useless, study? Did the study start as a trivia question?
Lizards have developed a ‘wood magnet’….I’m currently doing some experimenting with them on my ceiling fans. It only seems to work if I lick certain toads.
By the way, toads seem to fly in many colors and leave jet streams….
CoCoMangonana steel rooted trees. Natures safe spaces. Even the strongest crossfire blows. Fear not little lizards. God has it covered it with aerodynamics.

Wright Bros School of Lizards
This on top of their indepth study of thumb twiddling. Major discoveries are coming in leaps and bounds thanks to these intrepid eggheads.
Willys on the toad sweat again. Goes great with Iron Butterfly.
‘Wood magnets’
WTF?

Try licking the lizards fingers before placing on the ceiling fan for longer lasting adhesion fun. . .

Licking lizard feet is best saved for special occasions like holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and the occasional sick day call in…
Researcher #1: (takes enormous of pot) “Ok-ok. I got one. Why don’t Lizards fly off during hurricanes?
Researcher #2:(takes enormous of pot), “That’s real good. But check it out: Do Dogs approve of Nougat? Huh? Howbowdah?”
Researcher #3: (takes enormous of pot, bogarts the joint) “Bah! I bet you a truckload of Pabst that I can score a grant to see if I can get a shrimp to run on a treadmill!”
The only downside is the surviving lizards tried to sell car insurance to the researchers.

“Do horseflies prefer the Doobie Brothers or ZZ-Top?”
“Do trees have oral sex?”
“Do fish remember their childhoods?”
This is how Broken Lizard was born…
