Ok, this wins the contest hands down, brilliant version, will listen to it all year!

As fate would have it, there is a late entry.

Ooops, I think it got delivered at the wrong place in California!

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

It certainly looks that way.  I'm sure the singer in red was not happy about it, either.

I saw a feature on some nature channel only recently where it was stated that it is the African animal responsible for the most human casualties - feline predators, elephants, crocodiles and poisonous snakes don't come near (maybe the mosquito does - size isn't everything!). Maybe the young lass should reconsider her gift wish?

The lady in red would be welcome to any Christmas event.  But no thanks to a hippopotamus.  That's true that they seem to be way more dangerous than a lot of people realize.

its because the sound of a boat motor is surprisingly similar to the rumble sound that in heat males make as a challenge. so the bulls attack motor boats thinking they are rivals

Thankfully, I've only been on boats on the Mississippi and Tennessee rivers--with an occasional lake here and there.
