Yep the 928 should have the same HP as my Cayenne Turbo.

Instead of 350hp stock adding the GT cams, tuned headers, x-pipe, and some map tuning should be 450hp. That's taking it from the Cayenne S hp to the Cayenne Turbo hp. Only instead of 5,300 lbs it weighs 3,600 lbs.

In theory. If it does not run it has zero HP. It does not use much gas however.

Good St. Paddy's day morning to ya.

The bar owners best dream, a Friday night St. Paddy's day. All the professional and simi-pros will be out drinking tonight. I have never ever not once in my life had green beer. Ain't gonna start now.

It is just like cinco de mayo just an excuse to get drunk. As long as they don't drive drunk, I don't care at all.

I put on a green shirt only because of random chance. It is a Zoo Friends t-shirt from 2005 with a Panda Bear on the front from when the Zoo had a special exhibit. The shirt is from the Ostrich Egg Breakfast that year.

St. Patrick's day always reminds me of my favorite comedy movie, Blazing Saddles.

So if St Paddy's day is such a big Irish Holiday, why doesn't it involve either eating or boycotting Potatoes?

Looked it up and understand why drinking is a such a big part of St Paddy day. The Catholic Church made it a free drink all the alcohol you want day if you have given up alcohol for lent. What a way to celebrate the introduction of Christianity to Ireland. Good thing it was the Catholics and NOT Baptists! Especially since the Irish like their dancing, even if it is only from the waist down (is that so they can hold their beer?)

Was Dr. Seuss Irish. If not, why was he and Sam pushing Green Eggs and Ham so hard?

morning all. I have a green shirt on that's about it. I probably wouldn't even have that on if the wife had not put it out where I'd see it.

Aw come on...I just made that Dr. Seuss joke up this morning.

The priests order that St Patrick was a member of's color was blue. And Patrick was not even his real name, it was the name he took when he became a priest.

Maybe instead of Sam I am the character's name should have been Sean I am.

Sorry for those of you that don't read Scottish Gaelic. Basically, we Scots don't wear green on an Irish holiday.

Sean I Am sounds like a Dr. Suess/IRA handbook.

My high school history teacher didn't like the fact that several of us wore orange on St. Patrick's day.....

I don't think I have ever had anyone brave enough to pinch me either. Well, no one that wasn't pretty.

On of my friends was Scottish. His grandparents immigrated from Scotland. My friend would punch any kid that tried to pinch him for not wearing green. The principal talked to his dad and the dad told the principal how they felt about Irish and it was not PC even in the 60s.
