So I was driving home from the White Castle yesterday, along a road that used to be a country road until Democrats got rid of the countryside… and along the side of the road comes walking a guy in–a ninja costume.
OK, he wasn’t carrying a sword. But he had the black hood and the black martial arts pants and the belt. To make sure you understood it was a special martial arts belt, it was decorated with golden Japanese characters.
Now it can’t be that this person was a real ninja, because ninjas are supposed to be secret operatives and it would never do for people to be pointing at one and saying, “There goes a ninja! I wonder who he’s going to assassinate.” Nor was it Halloween. This was somebody dressed up as a ninja for no apparent reason.
Maybe he was going to Wal-Mart? But nobody walks in that neighborhood. It’s unusual to see any pedestrian at all, let alone one dressed up as a ninja.
When I see a thing like this, I think maybe our culture is in trouble.
Were there any turtles in the vicinity? It could have been a relative of the ‘teenage mutant ninja turtles’. 🙂
My sensei, who taught me the use of the sword, had a real problem those Ninja Turtles.
Now this is very strange. I commented on this post, as well as on the one about the student who was disciplined for playing “Hangman,” but my comments on both have disappeared. (Maybe this comment will disappear also.) Cue the “Twilight Zone” theme song….
I saw those comments, Phoebe. Maybe they were lost when the engineer “reverted” my site yesterday.
Ah, high technology. That explains any number of catastrophes. 🙂
It seems there are still a few glitches, although most seem resolved. As always, I checked the box for comment notifications and it’s been fine – except for the Agnus Dei post. That one apparently hasn’t gone through. Technology – aint it grand? Wait till ‘artificial intelligence’ becomes mainstream. Perish the thought!
