A while back, I read an article about the dangers of the tropics.According to the article, there is a danger that claims more lives every year than shark attacks.People, especially tourists, seek shadow under palmtrees and might fall asleep, unaware of the danger. Coconuts falling from a height of 20-30 feet have more than enough kinetic energy to smash in heads.
The Apple Bonkers: These are 15-foot tall, thin men who can walk from hill to hill at a stride, who wear purple tail-coats (with lapels), bow ties and top hats (with feathers in them). Their weapons of choice are giant green apples, which they drop on people’s heads and which have the same effect as the jagged arrows. If one can reach high enough, they, too, can be knocked out by such weapons, as the Beatles later discover. Singing is the only way to reverse the effect of being “bonked.” They bear a slight resemblance to Victorian undertakers. Up close, their faces are more distinguishable: one Apple Bonker sports muttonchops, another sports a handlebar moustache and curved goatee on his chin, and another sports just a moustache.

Is the horse haunted by Newton’s ghost?
I think that I shall never be – bonked as hard as ’neath a tree. – A tree that seems so hot intent to aid a falling fruits descent.

I would rather be hit by an ornament than the other things. Hope you got what you wished for, Horace!
