If I were to ask a lizard to run down a ramp at a speed of one foot per second and land at one foot from the top of the ramp, there is a good chance that it would stop running and fall straight to its death. It would likely fall on its tail and perhaps even land on its head, all while looking for a way to get out of the way.
If I were to ask a lizard to fly down a ramp at a speed of one foot per second and land at one foot from the top of the ramp, there is a good chance that it would just take off from the top of the ramp and land on its tail and fall towards its head.
Well, that’s the problem with lizards. They always seem to end up in the wrong place.
The reason that the lizards end up in the wrong place is because there is one specific part of their brain that is activated only when they are landing on their tails. The tail is where you want your lizard to land if your lizard is a tail-bouncing type of lizard. The problem is that the tail doesn’t have the same shape as the head of the lizard. So when a lizard lands on a tail, the tail just comes right out of the lizard’s body.
Another thing that can happen is if the tail is not long enough. If the tail is too short, then the lizard can end up falling forward. But if the tail is too long, then the lizards body will just push forward and the tail would not be able to land with the lizards.
So, we need to find a way to make lizards with long tails stop falling forward. If we do not have long tails, then we need to make sure that the lizard is long enough to touch the ground from the bottom. Otherwise, then the lizard will fall forward and end up landing on the tail.
I can already imagine my lizard-loving self saying: “I’m going to paint my new home black, with a bunch of naphthalene balls and naphthalene balls to help stop the lizards from falling forward.” And my lizard-loving lizard-sitting lizard-riding lizard-wearing lizard would be very pleased with himself.
A lizard is basically a small lizard which has a long tail.
This is the best part of my new home: the lizard-tail.
My favorite part of my new home is the lizard-tail. The part of it that is visible to the lizard-wearing lizard-riding lizard-wearing lizard.
