My first reaction, when I got to The Official Ninja Webpage, was to close the browser tab. But my mouse jerked and I couldn’t hit the close button immediately, so I stayed for few moments.

Aparently, this is site is some fun! :) It reminds me of myself about 10 years ago…

I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town.My friend Mark said that he saw a ninja totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.

There is all sorts of stuff – stories, movie scripts, flash clips, hate mail, and what not. This guy is pretty cool… :)

I know I am getting to political here, but these anti-Bush websites are getting way too funny recently.

Here is another one to add to your anti-Bush bookmark collection – EjectBush.com. For those who don’t get it – it’s the word play: “Eject” <=> “Elect”.

There is the usual stack of features: flash games, stupid quotes, lists of “achievements”, and lots of crap like T-shirts, mugs, and badges for sale. Enjoy. :)
