Default Kung Fu Fighting

Oh Oh

Watering [m]y wife's lanai plants again when I caught sight of a bark anole about 300mm, that's a big boy!

I believe bark anole wants to be the alpha male on my lanai and I fear for daring. Bark showed off his mating call and that little thingy that looks like an anole is blowing a bubble grew to the size of a bowling ball.

I expect to see some kung fu fighting shortly.

I have watched two anoles fighting. They may be small but they are fierce

My cats are purring at the idea of an anole hunt (rarely caught, usually just chased under the couch). I could always use a couple of extra anoles for their majesties' amusement. Let me know if have any that aren't up to your standards. Any color will do.

dbussone: yea and school colors too. Imagine that you are driving your new golf cart painted with your school colors and its logo. Now imagine an anole also with your school colors and logo sitting on your shoulder as you right down the multi-model pahways, not too fast, so that onlookers can view your dude-ness with envy

Red: Nothing personal but a man's got to protect his investment. I know an attorney, well at least I see his ads on TV daily that would be honored to handle my claim

My property is posted: "Please do not disturb anole's in conference. " Well that's what I call it in polite company.

I am not a suspicious person by nature, curious yes but suspicious no.

So when I went out to retrieve the newspapers this morning I found my garbage bag torn to pieces and spread across my lawn.

I have a feeling that "Kung Fu bark the terminator" the competitor he is recognizes I am a daring devotee and struck back at me during the early morning hours.

I intend to hunt him down with my net and if I find a shred of a chicken bone in between his teeth I am going to tell him that I know people and I know people with dogs and cats. and then I am going to make him an offer he can't refuse

Oops strike the net he'd bust right through it. I'm may have to hire a professional pest control guy to set a steel trap for him. Its going to get ugly

Probably a feral cat or some other creature looking for some chicken off those bones.

We had an anole which stuck its head out of my parents' bathroom tub's drain for weeks in Palm Harbor. I have no idea how it survived there and it would continue to look up whenever it sensed someone approaching its territory.

Rubicon - Awesome just awesome. I'm regaling in the potential awesomeness of showing off my very own anole. I can even imagine my school fight song blaring from the golf cart as we travel the MMP.

You know, like Ride of the Valkyries blaring from an attacking helicopter.
