Thanks, Neda, but I must've been Hippo-tized into thinking that a horn-nosed odd-toed ungulate was a hippopotamus! Which would make the pun...Rhino-plasty? "天才だよ！" (Tensai da yo!) is "you're a genius", and as much as I would like to confess to being one (and I sometimes do!), it wouldn't be quite true. There was much nodding and pointing in the tax office that day, and I vehemently agreed to a few words I didn't understand just to get the process moving along. Honestly, one of these days I really need to study again. But, Thanks! Ha! Thanks, Neda, but I must’ve been Hippo-tized into thinking that a horn-nosed odd-toed ungulate was a hippopotamus!
