Oh NO!!! Who is going to fight the Zombie hoard now?
When Jinichi Kawakami dies, he says, the deadly art of ninjitsu will die with him.
The 63-year-old former engineer says he is the last living person to have learned all of the skills used by the spies and assassins of feudal Japan, NDTV reported.
"Ninjas proper no longer exist" outside of fiction and public demonstrations, Kawakami explained.
He is the 21st head of the Ban clan, a line of ninjas with a 500-year history.
He gave up engineering to teach ninjistu 10 years ago, despite the challenges of being a ninja master in the modern age.
Drawings of ninja tools and weapons still exist, Kawakami said, “but we don't always find all the details. Many of their traditions were passed on by word of mouth."
Another handicap: "We can't try out murder or poisons. Even if we can follow the instructions to make a poison, we can't try it out.”
Kawakami’s own training, which began when he was 6, encompassed non-deadly skills like chemistry and psychology.
"I was also required to endure heat and cold as well as pain and hunger,” he recalled. “The training was all tough and painful. It wasn't fun but I didn't think much why I was doing it. Training was made to be part of my life."
Kawakami is studying ninja history at Mie University in Tsu, and doesn’t plan to take on an apprentice who will become the 22nd head of his clan.
"Ninjas just don't fit in the modern day," he said.
Dream cars are nice and all but the most fun I ever had on a vehicle was a Police motorcycle. Escorting funerals you actually get to have a heck of a lot of fun. In Arizona you get to run red and blue lights with siren and are classified as an emergency vehicle.
So:
Speed limits don't count
Red lights at intersections don't count
Traffic travel direction doesn't really matter (great way to play chicken)
P1ss1ng people off that are to busy to respect the dead or their families is a bonus
Having a Police car actually pull over for you is just priceless
My pick for "my" number one fun vehicle would be a Kawasaki KZ1000P.

Actually we were professional and respectful around the family.
I was an altar boy in grade school, served many a funerals. Always respectful of the families, but enjoyed being pulled out of school for several hours a week.
And before anyone makes an alter boy joke, I was never molestered

It was 'burn your bra' day today...I don't mind the gap at all, I SWEAR TO GOD! gorillamask.net is nice too, but majority of the site imho is nsfw. Yet I'm there AT WORK lol. Ran it by the IT guy, and he said as long as I close my deals I should be fine. It works out at times, and other times I get lost in what I'm reading, or looking at.
I was on CB when I told a client I specialize in BlackBerry, and the literature was about hard assets That was a 'dude, wtf' moment right there...happened today. He just said you're a part of the rimpire lol we laughed it off closed the sale, and he said check out crackberry, and left
