Anyway, it's an Iguana about 3 feet long. Buddy said that he saw it in the tree in front of the barn this morning. Well, Mr. IGUANA came down from his perch and SCAMPERED across in front f the barn ..... This was TOO much for Mr X -- he just HAD to get a closer look at this lizard -- after all, he'd never seen anything like THAT before. Buddy said that Mr X went trotting over and the iguanna just "froze" ...... however, soon as Mr X started nosing it, the iguana RAN off as fast as it's legs would carry it -- right over to a rather tall palm tree and quickly climbed up out of X's reach. With that, X tossed his head and trotted off in the other direction .. --- * Origin: Home of Mr X's 'XTRAORDINARY CARRIAGE SERVICES!

It was one of those really short clips where the newscaster says a sentence or two, and if you aren't already looking at the screen, you barely have time to look up and then bang, the story's over. As far as I can remember, the Fjords were being driven, but I had no time to take a look at what kind of vehicle, etc. What I did see is that the Fjord closest to the camera didn't have his mane trimmed short like Malla does, so it was long and floppy. Made a very interesting effect with the two colors bobbing about. Sorry to be so vague, but the item went by so fast, I didn't even register where the drivers were or anything.
