I don't know about anybody else, but personally I can't make enough sense out of it to even tell.

It would help if you could tell us in what context you want to use this sentence, or you could let us know what you are trying to say and then we can make some suggestions to help you.
But I agree with dragn, that as it is written currently that the sentence is not gramatically correct. In fact it appears to be just a collection of words strung together. Almost like someone has taken a thesaurus to a sentence and changed every word of another sentence.
Good luck
