Lizards and the Komodo King at Shedd Aquarium (Now Until Labor Day)

Don’t miss your chance to see the 8-foot-long, 178-pound Komodo dragon “Faust” and his posse of 25 exotic lizards. King Faust is the first Komodo dragon ever to be on display in Chicago – and he won’t be in the Windy City much longer.

With their venom-and-bacteria-laced mouths, Komodo dragons don’t make the best pets. But chameleons, iguanas and turtles are safer reptilian alternatives. Shop for food, habitats, medication and more for your reptile with PetSmart coupons and get 15% off $55 or more!

July 17th - It was on this day in history in 1917 that the British Royal Family changed their names from Hanover to Windsor. Could it be that Hanover sounded too much like “hangover”? Obviously in those times, a hangover wasn’t related to the morning after a night of excessive drinking like it is today. But, when I think about it, “hangings” over the castle wall was a ritual thing when it came to punishment and controlling crime during these times, so perhaps this surname was a little too dark for the family? I’d think so, but I’m probably waaaaaay off! Know someone with a unique name? Or perhaps you want to give someone a sentimental gift that’ll make’ em smile.
