TREK NOTES:
ODO:  Security reassignments, Major. Sorry it took so long. It's been a Klingon afternoon. 
KIRA:  A Klingon afternoon? 
ODO:  Every time Klingons come to the station, I wind up with a Klingon afternoon. 
	[ .... ]
ODO:  There's a drunk Klingon [Kor] in my holding cell who must be a hundred years old, 
            singing battle songs. Even his best friend [Koloth], who's probably a hundred and 
            fifty years old, won't have anything to do with him, so I get the pleasure of listening
            to his repertoire." (Odo to Kira, DS9 "Blood Oath")


TERRAN NOTES:

HOWARD:  So, listen, what are you doing tomorrow afternoon?
SHELDON: Be more specific.
HOWARD:  Four thirty.
SHELDON: That's not afternoon. That's preevning.
HOWARD:  What?
SHELDON: It's a time of day I invented. It better defines the ambiguous 
                    period between afternoon and evening. Preevning. I'm fairly 
                    certain it will catch on as it fills a desperate need.
RAJ:            Right, okay. What are you doing tomorrow preevning?
SHELDON: Well, tomorrow's Saturday. Saturday night is laundry night, 
                    so I'll be spending the preevning pre-sorting and pre-soaking.
