Interesting article.

BBC - Earth - Geckos have superpowers, starting with running on ceilings

All that on top of having a British accent and saving you 15 percent on your car insurance.
  • Uh oh, looks like I gotta revise my Reincarnation Wishes document.

    I figured on comin' back as a hummingbird, with mebbe a dolphin as 2nd choice, but now I see I gotta settle on kindsa gecko because they are so cool.

    "When a gecko is attacked, it can instantly detach its tail. The tail will then wriggle to distract the predator while the gecko makes its escape."

    Detachable wrigglies?

    This is an inspirin' superpower.

        This is my little girl Basil (a chameleon, not a gecko).

        Someone told her her super power is super-camo. Blend in and disappear into any background.

        Here she is practicing with the telephone...

    Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
    So that blind people can hate them as well.
