As Alton Maddox might say, his reptilian phallus came to attention but wasn’t allowed to come to “at ease.”
I blame feminism.
In one swift, er, stroke, Reuters redeems itself for the fauxtography clusterfark.
Update: Jim Treacher comments, “I read that headline and thought, ‘Well, Rosie will be glad to hear about this!’”

Woah, the “two penises” surprise ending sort of confuses me. Why was there any dilemma then if he had a backup the whole time?
I guess it’s just the principle of the what they’d be doing.

Was it just me or did everyone in that video sound like they were auditioning for Goldmember in an Austin Powers movie?
ScottMcC on January 26, 2007 at 8:07 PM
A second chance,,,,,think about it,,,,,,,wouldn’t that be great for most of us?

A backup?
On a lizard?
Evolution takes a hit with that one.
Slublog on January 26, 2007 at 8:10 PM
Either that, or God was really, really ticked about the apple.
Slublog on January 26, 2007 at 8:12 PM
Ha Ha Iggi’s sportin a woody. Can’t the Doc just spray it with a little WD-40. Works for me everytime!

He has a backup unit…??!!
Viper1 on January 26, 2007 at 8:22 PM
Same dern thing happened to me once. Thank goodness for the backup.
Limerick on January 26, 2007 at 8:24 PM
The reporter ain’t bad, either. Julia Glovers…good commentary. Will rise again. I like it.

I read that headline and thought, “Well, Rosie will be glad to hear about this!”
Jim Treacher on January 26, 2007 at 8:44 PM
Hahahah.
Allahpundit on January 26, 2007 at 8:49 PM
S’cuse me while I whip this…and this…out…
JetBoy on January 26, 2007 at 8:55 PM
Okay, I’ll be the token broad on the thread… THIS was news? Damn, Western Culture has it good, if THIS is what we deem worthy of news time. Egads.
But at least it gave the men here an excuse for penis jokes…And THAT makes it worth it.
;o)

…snicker…

Why is this a news story??? This happens to me all the time, and “dragging it across my sandy habitat” IS difficult but not newsworthy. al-Reuters ( the only news agency with its own armoured vehicles ) must be running out of news / foto-shop options
Janos Hunyadi on January 26, 2007 at 9:23 PM
I love penis threads…and I need it after a couple of weeks like these recent ones.
So please–carry on.
Bob's Kid on January 26, 2007 at 9:32 PM
When I saw the headline, I was afraid that they were going to turn the poor lizard into a liberal, but it turns out that he’ll still have a functional penis.
ReubenJCogburn on January 26, 2007 at 9:34 PM
Viagra for lizards? Those Belgians are cutting edge….
csdeven on January 26, 2007 at 9:36 PM
Evolution takes hits on at least a daily basis… one of the biggest most recent hits was when evolutionists unknowingly essentially falsified it (once again).
RightWinged on January 26, 2007 at 9:57 PM
Are we sure that this stud uses only one at a time?
omegaram on January 26, 2007 at 10:38 PM
She has such a mouth on her? Can you believe she said it in public? B E L G I U M

Obviously, the Belgians are on the cutting edge with reptilian viagra.
csdeven on January 26, 2007 at 10:53 PM
In nursing school they always said to just slap it down.
bloggless on January 26, 2007 at 10:59 PM
duuude.
if i could lick my own eyeball, i’d never leave the house.
jummy on January 26, 2007 at 11:03 PM
I had to LoL… especially once I saw the screen name :P
SilverStar830 on January 26, 2007 at 11:06 PM
LOL
Reuben,
Thanks allot now I have to clean my keyboard.
F15Mech on January 26, 2007 at 11:53 PM
When some lizard-types lose their tail, it grows back.
So? Will it grow back?
BTW, did the zoologists give any reason as to why they have TWO wali-walis? Is there some compelling survival advantage or “functional” reason? Or is it purely “cosmetic styling”. You gotta’ admit, they (the twins) sorta’ compliment the forked tongue.
CyberCipher on January 26, 2007 at 11:56 PM
hehehe you said schwanz
sonnyspats1 on January 26, 2007 at 11:59 PM
You’re a very sick individual, Allah.
And I mean that in the best way possible.
jaleach on January 27, 2007 at 12:08 AM
Gives a whole new meaning to drain the lizard, lizards, lizardi??
serenity on January 27, 2007 at 12:13 AM
Priapic lizard…thought this was going to be a Bill Clinton thread. Bah.
austinnelly on January 27, 2007 at 12:38 AM
Keith Olbermann was overheard “Amputated? I’d give anything to have it”.
Entelechy on January 27, 2007 at 12:57 AM
Sorry about the keyboard, I know I was hitting below the belt on that one.
ReubenJCogburn on January 27, 2007 at 1:15 AM
Lizard males always have it twice as good. Their double barrelled unit is called a hemipenis. And like they said, they can lop one off, and still use the other.
I could have used something like that with my 1st wife….
And no - it isn’t powered by Dodge.
Dr. Gecko on January 27, 2007 at 2:37 AM
Two penises and…one testicle?
Two penises…they are rightly equipped for a menage-a-trois!
I bet you all that Rove is behind all this!
Ropera on January 27, 2007 at 2:46 AM
Transplant it to the Geico gecko, he doesn’t have any.
Yes, I noticed.
lizzee on January 27, 2007 at 8:35 AM
My God… that lizard is like a Duke lacrosse player without a black stripper to victimize. Allah, I resent the implication of this story: White, rich, male college athletes are no better than reptiles.
SailorDave on January 27, 2007 at 10:19 AM
She’s given me an erection that is longer than 4 hours….should I see a doctor like the commercials say?
