ONAPPO:

a) an extremely potent retsina wine from northern Greece

b) a North American Algonquin Indian ceremony also known as a Spirit or Vision Quest

c) someone to be avoided: Ornery, Nasty, And Pretty Pissed Off

d) a Sephardic Hanukkah dish, similar to latkes but made with rice instead of potatoes

e) engaged to be married (Irish slang)

f) a musk hog, until 1975 known only to Paraguayan Indians; pictured here. (The GUARANI language has only UPPER CASE.)

g) ventriloquist monkey (from South America)

h) former trade name for an Australian sticky sweet, now generic for any messy candy eaten/demanded by children

i) Original Natural Alliance for Perpetual Precipitation in Orlando

j) spawning salmon (Ojibway) [pre-edit i]

k) a large rodent of Central America [pre-edit j]

That's what I thought originally, naturally. Perpetually. But I see I was precipitous. Thanks, TEd

I say " G ".

And I don't have to explain why because it's my birthday and I can say whatever I please.

A Heisenberg vote! I'm uncertain which answer it applies to. I think I'll let it sit in its box until the very last minute, and then take j-u-u-s-t a peek...

Edit: No, you dummy, that's a Schroedinger vote! (Harumph.)
