What We Need...

“You mean, besides the giant can of Raid?” the President asked.

“Don’t be ridiculous… sir, " replied the General. “We have planned for this scenario.”
“I call it: Operation Flying Gecko.”

“How can an insurance company help us with the spider menace?” the President asked.
The General facepalms. “Not the company. The animal.”

“Oh!” The President exclaimed. “Like the one on TV. I like him. He talks funny.”

“Er, well. Yes. That is a gecko,” the General replied. “Our plan is simple. We’ve recruited the geckos, and they’re willing to be air-dropped into every major city.”

“Why geckos?” the President asked.

“Geckos are natural predators of spiders.”

“They’re what?” the President, looking confused.

“They eat spiders.”

“Ah,” said the President. “I like this plan. We’ll make them all heroes.”

“Say the plan works,” said a voice from the shadows. “What do we do if the geckos then decide they want to take over the world?”

“We have a plan for that,” said the General. “I call it: Snakes on a Plane.”
