Samurai

I want to be a crime fighter. I think that'd be groovier than being a Samurai.

I urge you to give this very careful consideration. The cost of cleaning capes is ruinous!

Use Woolite.

(It's great for Hogwarts Academy robes.) :)

This is a small price to pay for not having to spill your entrails onto your knees at the whim of your Daimyo.

I ran into someone who referred to themselves as "a samurai", earlier tonite. I was... well, taken aback, that's for sure.

On the one hand, I accept it is a possible thing. On the other, I had considerable urges to slap him down like a bitch.

I blame the proliferation of anime on the Cartoon Network…everybody wants to be Kenshin. Next thing you know, you will be running into green-haired guys named Spike fleeing from the Yakuza aboard the "Bebop". ;)

I think maybe this guy just watched that Tom Cruise film and decided that he was a samurai, too. A couple of years ago, during my bodyguard days, I beat the living shit out of a self-proclaimed "Ninja Master". Turns out his name was Ernie. If your name is Ernie you are automatically disqualified to be a ninja, much less a "Ninja Master".

LMAO!!!
 
Yeah... my main problem is that I have little respect for 90% of people to label themselves as badasses. A bad habit, and I'm sure one that'll get my ass kicked one day.

I know a mixed martial arts national champion and a two time Olympian 3rd degree black belt in Shotokan... they both teach MMA and martial arts where I live. Both of them could tell me "I'm a samurai" and I don't think I'd bat an eye. If they're not, they could still break me (and I'm 6'6", 220, and a boxer... I don't say that someone "could break me" very often).

Good grief. If I ever become famous or valuable to the arts or a nation or sect of some sort I want you and C. Quilty as my bodyguards.

Perdita ;)

p.s. With those measurements you should not have such a sweet face.

Haven't seen the deniro movie but is that the source of the title? Well, at least he isn't a ghostdog.
