Now, THAT'S a doozie.
Consuelo, it took four minutes to download - and every minute worth the waiting. What a beauty! It certainly makes the expression under consideration accolades of the highest order!
EDIT:
It also has just occurred to me that in 1950s/60s Nigeria, (well, in Lagos, anyway) the local population used the word "Jaguar" (pronounced 'Jag-wah') in exactly the same way - to express extreme merit. This was, most definitely, a reference to the Jaguar motor car, ownership of which was looked on as the highest pinnacle of ambition.
