You need a hobby besides correcting people. Try joining a club or learn an activity. Get out of your house a little.

No, they are not chameleons...

The different colors represent different origins (native vs invasive species). You would have know that if you actually read the thread...

We call ours "Willy". Upstate NY we had small red ones. My children would go out after a rain and collect them. They were so cute.

Try pronouncing it "Ahn-o-LEIGH'". Now that sounds sexier, eh?
