So... I was talking to Pete at work, and in our Christmas ornament-induced stupor (yes, Lowe's is setting their Christmas display already. Ick.) he said something about a pack of lights being located in "bay two, level one."
My exhausted and overworked brain suddenly managed to bubble a useless bit of information up to the surface, and I remembered that my Hungarian neighbor on 2nd Street had the curious name of Beytu (no idea if it's spelled right, deal with it.).
"And her cat's name was Kaplun," I added.
Upon saying this, my brain spat out another useless tidbit, and I announced to Pete, "And I think Kaplun means something in Klingon, too. Victory, maybe?"
Pete was horribly amused to find out that not only do I like video games, but I knew KLINGON.
Anywho. So I went to Wikipedia just now, because I was trying to see if I was close, and according to it the word I was thinking of was Qapla', which means "success."
I am amused and frightened of myself.
