GODFREY; LE POURSUIT DES FILLES

We've figured out that one of them is from the East Coast; there are pockets of civilization there. And the other one is an Irishman, from Dublin, which would possibly account for the rambling whacko gibberish. Both of them are fervent Trumpistas, so unlike real Americans, normal folks, they do not have complete faith in British Ambassador Sir Kim Darroch's intelligence and perspicacity.

Good man, Sir Kim Darroch.

Our kind of people.

The person I haven't mentioned yet, who is not a Trump supporter, merely an apologist of monumental proportion, knows far too much about lizard sex to be acceptable. He's one of the skeeviest "well-respected" members of the community, and we're all immensely glad he often wears regular business attire, rather than the scaly suit he has in his closet.


GODFREY, A REPTILE

He was frothing eloquently at the mouth about a Western Fence Lizard to whom he's close, which has been warmly embracing several female lizards, and chasing away rivals. Possible rivals. Lizards of either gender look the same, so he isn't sure that his little friend -- let's call him 'Godfrey' -- is barking up the right tree, but he has remarkable faith that Godfrey is both heterosexual, and able to tell the difference.

The way to sex a lizard is by examining the area near the cloaca, which is the vent near the base of the tail, serving as a "groin" in reptiles, birds, and amphibians. This is where the two decorated or possibly spiky hemipenes (intromittent organs of squamates) are normally hidden, to be everted when the creature is aroused. The male's cloaca will have a swelling indicating the presence of hemipenes. As well as two enlarged scales.

Additionally, males are blessed with large femoral glands on their thighs.



From Wikipedia: These lizards are diurnal, and are commonly seen sunning on paths, rocks, and fence posts, and other high places, which makes them an easy target for predation by birds and even some mammals, such as shrews. They protect themselves by employing their fast reflexes, which are common in many other lizards including biting and possibly defecating on the predator. 
End quote.

Godfrey has NOT defecated on our friend the lizard freak yet. To anyone's knowledge. This suggests that there is a measure of trust and familiarity there. Godfrey may enjoy having an audience. Or he recognizes the lizard freak Peeping Tom as a sympathetic but sexually non-competitive soul.

Possibly the Peeping Tom lizard freak apologist gets down on his hands and knees and acts comfortingly reptilian, flicking a tongue in and out somewhat placidly, to put Godfrey at ease.


I'll keep you posted when I know more.
I was busy, and forgot to ask.
