Oh, he'll take full advantage of playing pIqaDHommey, or whatever we
shall call it. On his first turn, it will be >Dalo'<. Then he'll come
back with >Dalo'qang<, then >Dalo'qangchoHlaH<, and so on. Boy, I sure
better make sure that [ng] isn't worth too much, or he'll be adding
suffixes from Class 10. (Don't ask. Maybe ask ********. I'm sure he's
created some. And some Class 11.)
So I guess pIqaDHommey sets will be shipping soon. Send $19.99 to me,
in care of me, today.... :-) (ranqo' Industries, of course.)
