Since all the terms have been properly defined by Chris Turner I can now give
you my Daffy-nitions of them


1.  Loaf- What people used to do in VW vans before the Vanagon era.  Now the
only "loaf" we have is one made out of a big chunk of our "dough".


2.  Carat-  Pronounced  "Carrot" or "Ka-rot"  A fancy German word that most
people pretend to know what it means but actually don't.


3.  Transporter- A device that disassembles your molecules "beams" them some
place else, and then reassembles them.  Don't you guys watch TV?  (Darnnit
Jim, I'm a Vanagon Mechanic not an entomologist!)


4.  Wolfsberg- The mythical place where tireless German elves work to make
toys for grown up boys and girls around the world. (Or a canine infested
iceberg)


5.  GL- Stands for Good Luck, 'cause your gonna need it.


Have a fun Monday.
