    In honor of the latest Star Trek release, MSN Video has rolled out a Klingon version of its Star Trek video page. Klingon, of course, is the tongue spoken by the race of the same name in the fictional Star Trek universe. For those of you who aren’t Trekkies, Klingons are the warrior race and usually are portrayed as the enemy in the Star Trek series and movies.

    One notably hilarious (or sad, depending on your point of view) video shows a “Captain_Krankor,” or taHjaj wo,’ seen posing in random photos, including one where he is holding a dolphin. The Klingon imperial anthem serves as the soundtrack to a slideshow of Captain Krankor spottings here on Earth, many of them on a corporate campus that could easily be Microsoft’s.

    Does anyone know, do they speak Klingon in Redmond?
