Sounds good, though I might favor {Doy'} over {'IQ} just
because I believe the original meant "wear you down" instead of
"get you down". Non illegitimi carborundum - or somesuch.

I'm also into rock climbing. It's a climber hanging by one hand
on an underhang, reaching back into his chalk bag with the
other hand. "Get a grip" is the logo for the local climbing
club. So far, I seem to be the only rock climbing Klingon,
though the combination seems quite natural...
