A)   Yes this man shows his back and is reputed to often utter "Ho ho ho," but since we don't know
        if Bob believes in Santa, this is an incorrect response.

B)    This is an almost sound alike (homonym) in English.  This is the tobacco plant (pronounced
        ti-bak-ho.  If you did not listen carefully, you would hear this as only bak-ho.  Bob is a
        children's cartoon character and certainly knows the risks of tobacco misuse.  There is no
        way he would choose this as correct.

C)    This is a simple garden hoe.  I'm sure it could be used somewhere "out back," and might be
        possibly be sometimes called an "out back hoe".  Remembering that Bob is a Builder and not
        a gardener, we must also reject choice C.

D)    You got it.  This is a construction type back-hoe.  It is just the type that Bob features in his
         home video and toy collections.  I'm sure you can find one through Amazon.com if you really
         want one.  I'm hoping that this is not made by Matel (c) and subject to recall issues for lead
         in the paint. 

(This is my first hyper link, so I wanted it to be unusual.)
