I've never been to qep'a', so I can't really help with that; but I would interpret "bImoD, bIwoD", (on one of the t-shirts) as more like "haste makes waste"; don't know if Ben Franklin said that or not; it might have been included just because it rhymes so well in Klingon. *shrug* -QISta' Verbing AWESOMES language! -----Original message----- From: Lieven <levinius@gmx.de> To: "tlhingan-hol@kli.org" <tlhingan-hol@kli.org> Sent: Wed, Jun 15, 2016 11:39:55 GMT+00:00 Subject: [tlhIngan Hol] qep'a' history peqIm, I am working on the history page of past qep'a'mey, and I am still missing a lot of information.

Sure enough.

Yes, and exactly that translation is shown on the wiki page. Did you not find it? It's right there at the qep'a' 10 T-Shirt: http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/QepaTShirts -- Lieven L. Litaer aka Quvar valer 'utlh Grammarian of the KLI http://www.facebook.com/Klingonteacher http://www.klingonwiki.net

Ha, that's verbing "AWESOMES" language! Using "awesome" as a verb; you know, it's a play on the classic Calvin and Hobbes line "Verbing weirds language". I thought it made a better email signature than "Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless". *shrug* But anyway, glad to have contributed a little bit to "all of us" by observing the Ben Franklin sayings... maybe next time I can find the one that's still just marked with a "?". :-P But, David, what does Outlook for Android have to do with anything? I'm feeling very confused this thread... -QISta' *Verbing AWESOMES language!* On Wed, Jun 15, 2016 at 3:52 PM, Lieven <levinius@gmx.de> wrote:

Okay, I was on the wrong track here. I thought it was a play on something else, it reminded me of the phrase "fu*ing awesome" :-) qay'be', mayajchuq'taHvIS. -- Lieven L. Litaer aka Quvar valer 'utlh Grammarian of the KLI http://www.facebook.com/Klingonteacher http://www.klingonwiki.net
Ah, I see. I thought maybe it was that, but then I thought if it was I would have seen it before, and there wasn't anything distinguishing it from the message body, so I was confused, lol. DaH Dapvetlh vIbuSHa'. :-P -QISta' On Jun 16, 2016 11:56 AM, "David Holt" <kenjutsuka@live.com> wrote:

It's just like "Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless". I hadn't noticed that my email server had added that until after I hit send. Dapvetlh yIbuSHa'
