Well you know, my mother was killed by the Shogun when I was extremely young.

He sent his assisins to get my father but instead killed her.

I was real little and stuff and my dad was all like "Choose the sword, and you join me... choose the ball.. and you join your mother... in death... come now boy... you must choose... live or death"

And I was maaad young. Like 2. But I picked the sword!

So we totally started doing crazy sh!t all over the place with it. Choppin heads and arms off etc. The Shoguns head was infected by devils and he needed to go. So my pops was like "fvck this n!gga B, he's dead B!" and I was like "Thas wassup!"

So after we were whoopin ass, I lost count of how many people got chopped, the Shogun was like "You fight my brother and win and I will spare you your life!"

So my pops did, I helped him out a lot on that one. But you know what? The Shogun was fvcking crazy son. He was all like "ay yo! You're life is spared but now I'mma take yo's son... son!"

And me and pops have been going across the country side fighting off the evil Shoguns assassins since!

Those guys *ARE* hilarious. They used to come on QVC late at night, and when my friends and I would get back to our dorms all drunk we'd put their show on, blaze a nightcap, and laugh our asses off. I think O'Dell's accent and diction were what did it for me.

Ha ha ha... o'dell... I had forgotten the guys name! We used to do the same thing too... one time he cut himself while cutting paper with a knife.

They're purty, and adorn the top of the entertainment center. Makes a nice decoration.

I don't even know if samurais count?

Do they count?

Because if not I'll erase my story.

I totally don't want to fight anymore ninjas.

Honest mistake.

I knew a guy that used to collects the crappy katanas and waki's from ren faire's and stuff. I never really understood that. I always wanted an authentic katana collection though...the ones that costs 7-10k a sword. I'd think that would be cool.

I've got a sword, it's a great weapon. In an enclosed space like a house with only a few feet between opponents, or in the dark, it's probably as good as a handgun.

I fought and killed a snake with mine...




The aftermath of the battle...

LOL... where's the snake?

LOL it was probably a earthworm and all the mess seen in the picture is from him just freaking out and frantically swinging the swords everywhere.



Not huge, but he fought hard.... seriously...

Wouldn't the shovel have worked better?
