This thread would be funny if it were not for the backstory.
(There is one, isn't there?)
---Something about unemployment, maybe due to falling asleep at work? Pumbany?
It has happened--you're not the first.
And you will not be the last.

There's just something about that jazzy porn music that get's me all worked up for some quality bed time.

LSAT was so kind to point out that there is a blog entitled "My Sleep Apnea" detailing one gentleman's experience with his sleep apnea (I am so sorry-I can't get the links set up; you will have to cut and paste. Someone please post a reply including these two articles to make it easier for everyone. Thank you!) [http://mysleepapnea.net/my-sleep-apnea-story]. I encourage everyone to read it. It even has a link for you to send donations if you found the blog informative. I was amazed, as was LSAT, of the coincidence that this blog's author has as a contact name PUMBANY! But I was so disappointed to see that the author of the blog, while educating us on the surprising signs of sleep apnea, HAD COPIED IT WORD FOR WORD from this very informative article from 2015:[ https://www.verywell.com/surprising-sig ... ea-3014829]. Really Pumbany? I am so disappointed in you. Does your book coach know? How about about the physician who wrote the original article? Go outside and bring me a switch!

Thank you for finalizing the connection.
Has anybody contacted the good doctor's legal team?

It appears that "pumba" and "pumbaa" are Swahili words:
Pumba, n. ( — , and ma-), also Bumba, lump, rolled-up piece, clod of earth, packet. Kuwa mapumba, to form lumps, stick together, congeal. Dim. kipumba. ■ (Cf. bumba, donge.)

Pumbaa, v. be foolish, silly, weak-minded, negligent. Pumbaa kazi, take no pains about a job, do it carelessly, be idle. Cs. pumbaza, be-fool, make a fool of, treat as a fool, deceive, play jokes upon. Jipumbaza, be stupid on purpose, pretend to be a fool. Hence pumbazwa, and pumba-zika, be made a fool of, be duped, e. g. p. njia, miss the way by carelessness. Msiende mkapwnbazike, do not go playing the fool. (Perh. conn, with pumba, and follg., i. e. be lumpish, heavy.)

And for those who remember "The Lion King", it was a flatulent warthog.
