A Day Late, A Shuriken Short

Apparently it's not just Viking Festivals and Primitive Skills events that I hear about days after the event, but also opportunities to dress-up like Storm Shadow and harass my co-workers with origami throwing stars.

Day of the Ninja was last Tuesday, December 5th.

Here's some info from Wikipedia:

In 2003, the creators of Ninja Burger declared that December 5 would be celebrated as Day of the Ninja. On this day, people are encouraged to dress as ninja, engage in ninja-related activities, and spread information on ninja online. December 5 was originally chosen because December 5, 2003 marked the release of Tom Cruise's film The Last Samurai (which featured a scene where samurai battled ninja).

I guess on the positive side, by coincidence - or ninja mind control - we did eat at a sushi restaurant that day for lunch . . .

And what ninja post would be complete without a throwing star link.
