I enjoy your dirty thoughts :-)
Anyway, when I hear "drill" I don't think "screw". A drill MAKES a hole, it does not put anything in it.
This use of the English words /screw/ and /drill /are idiomatic. Screwing involves a twisting motion and drilling involves making a hole, as Lieven says, neither of which particularly resemble the act you're considering. A Klingon would no doubt become angry, but not because you suggested anything particularly sexual. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
