I have been a Klingonist since January of 2002, and currently reside in Indianapolis, IN (for those interested in a qepHom).

Projects (contributions to the tlhIngan Hol community)

• I am one of the translators of the tlhIngan Hol Google site

• LDS Hymnal Translation Project http://www.angelfire.com/tx4/purpleelaphants/van_bommey.html

• Sophos Klingon Anti-Virus http://www.sophos.com/blogs/gc/g/2009/05/19/klingon-antivirus-facts/ and http://www.sophos.com/klingon/

It seems people have been attacking my Sophos translation. I assure you that I used care to translate the software as accurately as possible. I will post a blog about the project, and my use of -ghach? shortly.

• Klingon Kama Sutra (KKS, parmaq paq,  ). You can find more info on my KKS blog: http://KlingonKamaSutra.blogspot.com and by following @_KKS on Twitter.

I have been asked to produce a {{pIqaD}}? version of the KKS. I'm more than willing to do so, but I'll focus on completing the translation at this point.

• I am also the founder of wejDIch Wednesday on Twitter. http://twitter.com/roneyii

The third Wednesday of each month, several of us tweet exclusively in the warrior tongue.

• I also established two Klingon Twitter hashtags. Tweets about Klingons should be marked with #kli, while tweets in or about tlhIngan Hol should be marked with #tlh. This keeps all of the tweets together and easily searchable.

Why naHQun?

It all started when I was in this play. 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.
