Regina said she never drinks anything when composing e-mail. Above, I said,
{'ach QInDaj qontaHvIS weQqul tlhutlhbe'taH chay' 'e' DaSov?} "But how do
you know that weQqul wasn't drinking when she wrote his or her message?"
Regina replied, {pegh De'vam} "This is secret information," "That's a
secret." This is the sort of thing one tends to say when one HAS a secret,
so I jokingly played along in a Klingon manner, using a Secrecy Proverb:
{Hov ghajbe'bogh ram rur pegh ghajbe'bogh jaj!} "A day without secrets is
like a night without stars!"
I had no intention of implying anything about you, or to try to find out
anything about you. It was just a silly conversation. I apologize if we
didn't make that clear.

OK. i am new at this and maybe I got the wrong idea. If i did, then im sorry
about it, but i did understand the proverb since im studying it for a qepHom
coming up. I did get confused at one point on who was saying what. I did
understand the 'that is secret information' too, so i assumed it was directed at
me. I dont have any problems with anyone drinking. That is their own business. i
just choose not too. :)
Have patience with me, as I said, i am new at this and i will make mistakes.
Probably a lot but then : DaHlujlaHbe'chugh vaj DaQaplaHbe'! If you can't
fail, you can't succeed. A friend told me this and I believe in its truth.
