And then there will be the movie about the exploits of Klingon speakers
who provide secure communications for the US military --
Breakwindtalkers.

A true warrior does not break wind! When Kahless' brother Morath broke
wind in the presence of their enemies, Kahless beat him senseless do to
the dishonor it brought to their family's name...there is an opera about
the incident.

"What is that foul scent on the wind? Is it the smell of shame? Surely
it must be from our cowardly foe!"
"No, it is I, I your brother Morath who has brought shame upon our name."
"Did you eat of tainted qgah my brother? Was that why you let the foul
wind blow?
No, it was not rotten qgah...it was I who tainted the honor of our name."

Male Chorus:
"Shame upon the name of Kahless, whose brother could not hold it in that
day!
Shame upon the two of them, shame for which...they...must...now...pay!
The warrior's way is full of strife, and honor...must...be...his...life!
Do not break wind when faced with foes, save it for
the....courting...of...your...wife!

Female Chorus:
"The sweet perfume of the warrior's wind is a thing in which we delight!
Save it all up for us, do not waste it...or...set...it...alight!
In the bed of true love thunder sounds, and the sheets...do...surely....fly!
A smell so rich, so full of power, that a coward...would...surly...die!"
:-)

I am thankful you spared us the original Klingon. All plant and animal
life would have been suffocated for parsecs.

That's ok, I understand the aslyum has Pat's cell phone on speed dial.

He won't miss one of the future calls.
