The translation of "Kumbaya"
In the 964 greeting/song/signoff of Kumbaya,
does "Kum" roughly translate into "Flew"?
Just wondering.

I'm sorry, Brother Mike, did you get banned from yet another forum? You need to realize that this is not the 993 board where humorous posts like these are greeted with open arms. Here in Porschtopia, we're interested in learning more about our beloved cars, solving world problems and achieving a higher state of consciousness. You need to channel your energies towards the betterment of Porschkind and leave the humor to the jimbob's of the world
And yes, for the record, the translation is FLEW ... as in </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva"> Someone's passing you, Mike,
Flew-by-ya
It's another 964, dear Mike,
Flew-by-ya
No varioram can save you, Mike,
Flew-by-ya
Oh, Mike,
Flew-by-ya </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">

Joey, couldn't agree more - 964 related topics generally include humour (humor!) anyway (in a "oh that's what that fuse is for..." kind of way) not to mention some pain, pathos, fanatiscism, masochism, bottomless pit'ism........ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
People just need to remember that there is more to life than just our 964s, such as.... errrm....
Phil, have you still not found someone to take your money?
Cheers

Nick, yep I emailed Rennlist and was given an alternative payment page. Guess it takes a while to process. Either that or I've been conned into subscribing to a sado-masocist donkey-lovers' site <img border="0" alt="[oops]" title="" src="graemlins/oops.gif" />

I'm not saying I haven't been passed by a 964 before -- and remember I started this thread in an attempt to reach out to our 964 brethren in a complimentary manner -- but as I recall I'm yet to be passed by a certain 964.
Humorlessly (I even passed on the easy "donkey-lover's" lay-up) yours,
