My sometime confederate Namer X, knowing of my passion for corporate passion, generously shares this ardent manifesto from Rare Method, an interactive marketing firm in Calgary:
We Are:
- passionate for all things business
- passionate for all things creative
- passionate for all things Internet ...
We, on the other hand, are fahrklempt, and wish someone would pass the smelling salts.
Isn't fahrklempt more like being afflicted with the Denver boot? I had always thunk verklempt.

"Ver-" would be German; "fahr-" makes it Yiddish, more or less.
