Time to play...CONJECTURE!!!
Let’s say you’re a STAR TREK fan, have always liked the Klingons,
are
thinking about joining the KLINGON ASSAULT GROUP.......BUT..... (1) you
don’t have a costume, (2) you don’t have the rubber head-thingie, (3)
you don’t sew, and...and... and...and...and...
and if you keep going that route, you’ll NEVER unleash yourself so you
can dress up and PLAY.
Okay, you don’t sew. Neither do I. My first
Klingon uniform
consisted of black pants, black riding boots, a
black turtleneck sweater, and a shiny silver vest that I assembled
using a product I think was called “Stitchery Witch”. It
all worked, because I WOULD NOT TALK MYSELF OUT OF PLAYING at LosCon in
Los Angeles in the early 80s. This was before I had a sonic
disruptor pistol from Marco Enterprises, so I carried a Sonic Blaster
Zero.
That’s a hand cannon/bazooka that Mattel sold circa 1964.
I also carried KLINGON ATTITUDE.
Nobody hassled me about the TOS Klingon “look”; nobody critiqued my
workmanship; nobody dared.
That’s one of the cool things about KAG: for the most part, we’ve
all started out a bit wobbly in the uniform department, but as we
continue to grow and play, we keep enhancing our “look”. We know
it’s rough getting started, which is why we don’t make fun of beginners
and the effort it takes to Dress Up and PLAY.
That new Klingon uniform you’ve been tinkering with has separated you
from the wannabe’s. And by making that Klingon uniform, you’re a
Klingon officer. A Lieutenant. Imagine that!!
Small point here, but wrap your head around this: A costume is usually
a novelty, something worn once, maybe a couple times, unless you’re a
competitor in a convention’s Masquerade/costume contest. If
you wear the armor of a Klingon, it is a UNIFORM.
You need help, ask. I think I can speak for every KAG officer
over the rank of Lieutenant when I say this:
If we don’t have the answers you’re after, we’ll point you towards
somebody who does.
It’s said “Knowledge is Power”. We want all of our members to be
all-knowledgable, and All-Powerful. We also want you dressed to
kill, Klingon-wise.
New to KAG? Excellent!! Been around for a while?
Cool!! Let’s PLAY!!!
