You misspelled "lounge lizard". Hope this helps.

The Anthropologist claims that it took eons for the primordial to slime
because the Y Chromo's wouldn't stop and ask for directions.

In our last thrilling episode, Jd <Jd.wuzhere.TakeThisOut@att.net> was pushed over
the cliffs of alt.atheism on Tue, 27 Jul 2004 03:24:12 GMT by Zoog,
minion of Zathar. As he fell, he screamed:

625 square miles over 20 counties. About 30 sq. miles per county.

My home county, Santa Clara is one of those affected. The county
encompasses 1,312 square miles.

So essentially, we have to give up about 2% of space, already in Bay
wetlands that are nearly impossible to develop anyway, to save a
critter that evidently eats mosquito larva.

I'm complaining why?
