New riddle:
I'm something very common.
I'm also the name of a Broadway musical.
I've been linked to several hazards.
What am I?

You got it, @Lunastella!

Fun facts I learned recently:

The “Ferris” wheel was constructed by George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr. in 1893 as a landmark in Chicago, IL. However, earlier forms predated this by centuries and were known as observation wheels (meant for viewing the surrounding area) and pleasure wheels (which were formerly spun by people). As of today the largest Ferris wheel is 250 meters (820 feet) in United Arab Emirates, constructed in October 2021. The previous record holder is in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, constructed in March of 2014 at 167.6 meters (550 feet) high@Lunastellar
That's very interesting! :text-goodpost: Thank you!

cats. They can be dangerous (domestic cat bites can cause necrosis and litter changes can cause miscarriage). They are everywhere and reproduce prolifically.

Congratulations @Lunastella !!!!

I am not into musicals, but @Stephanie_Chapman's guess sounds logical to me. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Cats definitely fits everything and is most likely the answer, but just in case...



Grease?

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Something more common than bullets. Probably everyone here has seen one. And at least the women, used it.
