Agents question lizards in advance of Obama Bangkok visit

The Bangkok Post reports today that U.S. Secret Service agents doing advance work prior to President Barack Obama's scheduled visit to the city on Sunday were concerned about the presence of large monitor lizards on the grounds of Government House, mistaking them for carnivorous komodo dragons found in parts of Indonesia, a source said. You'd think the Secret Service would be familiar with irrational, forked-tongued reptiles.
