THE IGUANA

So What's With the Iguana?

Well, an iguana can exemplify our "heads up" philosophy: with the Internet, you need to be always on the ball and keeping pace with technological change. That's what we mean by "heads up." (After all, if you're not on the ball you'll get hit in the head with it, right?)

But beyond that, green iguanas have many excellent and interesting features. They have good senses of hearing and smell, and superb vision. Their long tail is also quite sharp, and is snapped in the air as a defense mechanism. The coloring of the skin helps camoulflage the green iguana, which means that they blend in easily to their surroundings to remain undetected by predators. If they are detected however, and need to escape quickly, these iguanas can dive from trees into water, and swim well. Green iguanas are quite sturdy-- they can fall 40-50 feet to the ground without getting hurt!

And if all that isn't enough, consider this: Dreyfuss and MGM have their lions, Merrill Lynch has its bull, Exon had its tiger, and Budweiser has the Clydesdales. Its about time a major corporation adopted the iguana. We're just staying ahead of the curve.
