Last weekend we had ice and snow, and our children's librarian had to
reschedule a Dr. Seuss Read Across America program to
this next Saturday. There was a community group called KLAS booked into our
large meeting room for next Saturday, but their booking sheet indicated they
expected only ten people to attend, so the librarian called the KLAS contact
person to ask if she could move them into a small meeting room so she could
have the large room for her 100+ kiddies.

This was their phone conversation:

KLAS contact: Well, I don't know if I have the authority to make that
decision about switching rooms. I am only the communications officer. I
will have to talk with my captain.

Librarian: Your captain? What kind of a community group is KLAS?

KLAS comm. officer: Why, we're the Klingons.

Librarian: Well, do you anticipate adding a dozen or more Klingons to your
federation between now and next Saturday? If not, you will fit into the
small meeting room. Unless you are going to have one of those blood battles
with big swords.

KLAS comm. officer: I guess it will be all right to switch.

Librarian: Thank you so much. This really helps me out.

KLAS comm. officer: No problem. I'm really a fan of Dr. Seuss's books. I
used to read them to my children all the time when they were little. They
are so much better than this terrible Harry Potter stuff that forces magic
on children.

Librarian (unable to restrain herself): How can you say that about Harry
Potter? You belong to a Klingon organization!

KLAS comm. officer: Harry Potter is about MAGIC! WE are about
SCIENCE!!
