Freezing Iguanas falling from trees

[Max Rockatansky]

Found this to be the more intriguing Florida store this morning than the Dunkin Donut drive-thru thing:

There's a Flying Iguana Latin fusion restaurant and bar around here. Wonder if Shad Khan has been there, as his investment company is, well, Iguana.

This is a major problem in my yard. There are half a dozen dead iguanas on my lawn.

Certainly was an issue in my yard on Cudjoe Key.  That and feral chickens randomly trying to hang out wherever they could find shade.

I forgot about the Key West chickens. Those and the mopeds.

When you say "bikes" do you mean bicycles or motorcycles?
"Moped Gang' elicits certain imagery.  Like it would be a mismatch if they squared off against the Hell's Angels, if you catch my drift.

As in "bicycles"  but they've had been known to hit mopeds also.  And the images you probably have in your head (if they are imaginative) are likely close to accurate.

I've always heard iguana tastes like chicken.

It wasn't an iguana, but many years ago I was helping a friend clear out a place in the woods in (then) rural St. John's County for his new home when a chameleon dropped out of a 50-foot tree and landed on my shoulder.  He looked up at my face, scurried down my leg, saw my friend digging and then ran back up and perched safely on my shoulder for a minute or so.  His wife almost passed out.  Turns out that we were removing all of the palmettos within 50 feet of the new house because she couldn't stand the fact that the sand rattlers live in the base of small palmettos (never mind that they aren't big enough to bite you, except perhaps in the web between your fingers).
