I was God (a minor role, really), and my prop for the play was a pineapple. It was supposed to be "The Word of God". So for the few months of rehearsal, everyone just called me "God". Eventually one of my standard nicknames was "The God of Pineapple". And it was during that time period that I was looking for a {{[tlhIngan pong]}}. So I looked up the word for God, and the word for fruit (knowing full well there are not any pineapples on {{[Qo'noS]}}), and I came up with {{naH Qun}}, or ``The God of Fruit/Vegetable``. I decided that I didn't want a space in my name, so it became {{naHQun}}. ----- - - -     ----- -Well since no one in Dallas seems to want to hear my story of how I discovered [Klingon], maybe one of you will. +!!!{{naHQun}} in the news   -My friends and I were at Half-Price Books; and I saw [Conversational Klingon] on clearance for $1 (they had like 20 of them). And I'm like, "Whoa! I can learn [Klingon] with a tape!" So we walked around with that for a while. Then I asked a cashier where I could find [The Klingon Dictionary] (having a vague memory of seeing one in the 80's), and realizing that it might be a little more useful than ``just`` the tape. He took me right to it, and I spent the next couple minutes skimming through it. My friends and I spent the drive home listening to [CK] (mostly the beginning where you try to say {{Q}} and almost choke yourself). +[http://esperantosocieto.org/pipermail/membroj_esperantosocieto.org/2004-February/000023.html]   -After that both the tape and the book ended up on my shelf. About a month later I moved to Indy (Indianapolis); and since I didn't know anyone, I sat down and actually tried to learn {{[tlhIngan Hol]}}. I ended up at a book store up there, and they had [The Klingon Hamlet] on the shelf, and I just had to have it. So I bought it. In the back it had the URL for the [KLI], and I was very impressed that there was an actual [Klingon Language Institute]. After I logged onto the site, I found out about {{[ghIlghameS]}} and [Much Ado About Nothing], and bought them. +[http://yourtech.typepad.com/twitinbiz/2009/02/twitter-a-job-search-tool-for-klingon-warriors.html]   -So I discovered [Klingon] for $1 and because I was bored up in Indy... +[http://tech.yahoo.com/news/pcworld/20090519/tc_pcworld/klingonantivirusavailablefordownloadreally]
