"Kemo Sabe", meaning an all knowing one, is actually a mispronunciation by Native American of the Spanish phrase, Quien lo Sabe, meaning one who knows."

...
*Just in case you were all losing sleep over any of these.... blink.gif
Hello there, sorry to bargein like this. I live in México since January 6, 1956. I started speaking Spanish 8 years before arriving to this country, so I know this: "Kemo Sabe" (writen "Kimo Sabay" in LoneRanger comics of my adolescence) means (in Spanish) "¿Quién sabe?", meaning "Who knows?"

You are wright (like those brothers in 1903): only gramaticly incorrect (acording to the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language). The "¿Quién sabe?" frase is used EVERY day, many times, by people like me, with a degree in total ignorance. We love to use it when answering USA tourists that don't forward any dollars before asking too many questions.

For all other nationalitys, we offer free info and assistance (no "Kimo Sabe" answers, even if we really don't know: then we use our imagination and forward them towards the Unknown, and have fun!)

We also use "Estás en tu casa" (meaning feel yourself at home): none of that Hollywood Gobernator bullS*$# "mi casa es tu casa" (my home is your home) because WE DON'T speak Spanish like that in México! Its a misspronounciation by Native Yanky Rednecks.

With love from México, donYan

Well...as long as reality does exist! In my dreams, everything is so real...until I wake up. Life is also real, until we travel to (wake up on) the other shore...donYan

I got 5! So I didn't process the whole 6 of them... its cool huh?
Good morning from México:
I got 4F on the first run. But then, for the next three runs, I could only locate 5F (fiveF, not SciFi) So on the fifth run I located the one missing...and it wasNOT an OF word!!! I guess, we male Mexiles are a separate breed of brain problems: but "I feel happy" (lala la LA, lará ralá laraaa...) because it means I HAVE GOT a BRAIN!!! (acording to this "F" Legend)

Abrazos, donYan

What's a card?
At the botom left of every reply, under your image/name, there are three keys: one is the ON/OFF, next is a small icon saying CARD and the next is PM. Presing the CARD key, is how I made the image in my reply. But no image on my CARD... help.gif ¿Where is the menu to upload an image there? frantics.gif donYan

Really! How talented!
Well because Mike wants to go and see some of his family and friends in the States and they can get a military flight for him and Alex, so they are basically travelling for free! Except the train journey they have to take and the flight from Seattle to LA when the military flight arrives in US! And car hire I think! Plus he has stuff to sort out and he needs to do that alone, and Alex can visit his US family! It will be very very hard for me with them gone!

Sorry to cause so much inconvenience argue.gif If you click the CARD tab on each post here, a CARD apears with the card owner (me in this case) profile data:

LEFT SIDE, contact details
send Email = private, Website = http://donyan.blogspot.com/ , AIM Name = No Info, ICQ Number = No Info, Yahoo Identity= donYanLu, MSN Identity = CombiVerde, Send a Personal Message = Click Here

RIGHT SIDE, photo
a 79 x 79 pixels blue square saying NO PHOTO

When I right click the NO PHOTO, there is a GIF image (URL): now, HOW DO I ACCESS THAT (URL) to change the NO PHOTO status? help.gif That's the question (said William in one of his plays)...Thank you (said donYan in one of his posts) bye.gif
