YET ANOTHER SWORD!
Why are there so many shots of this silly scabbard, you ask? Well, it’s simple. Evidently, that's just how I roll motherfucker!
question
If deflation or revaluement happens are we going to have to say about the Bernie Madoff scandal "Of course, those were 2008 dollars and you couldn't get nearly as much as you could with a buck back then. Why I remember you'd have to spend $20 just to see a movie that turned out to be a piece of shit."
And the children will look up and say "Really grandpa?"
"Why yes little Jimmy, that was before the days when we ritually killed people for making bad movies. Oh the day we killed Uwe Boll and McG in the same afternoon was a glorious day."

Another Swordy Sword
Musashi Swords' fairly afforadable and very nice Zetsurin Sword with the red saya (or scabbard)
You'll notice there is no tsuba (hand guard) on this sword. That's one of the main reasons I bought it. I have a liking for things without hand gaurds.

FUN!
Okay, so here is what's going on.
It's decided to rain... again.
Big surprise, I know. We've had more water falling from the sky in the last four months than we've had in the last four years*. Lake Superior has risen 5 inches since November**.
This means that it being spring, and there being fresh mold, new plants and other such lovelies coming up again, I have begun sneezing. Sneezing is fun because I sneeze sometimes 35 times in a row*** and the repeated shock of sneezing sends waves of pain down my arms, and legs as well as kick starting headaches. The difference in pressures also means that my hands are swollen, meaty lumps made of pure arthritic pain and misery. I can type, but who wants to when that's all you have to talk about? I can sort of cook, but the pain my me paws means holding things like knives and spatulas become an adventure wherein our hero learns how to hold things without his thumb because those hurt most of all.
Add to that the fact that everyone else in the house was as cheerful as me and you get the idea that we've had quite a fun day here.
In other news, I totally want to build an O'Neill Cylinder in my back yard.
FANCY'S FUN FACTS!
*This estimate is incredibly exaggerated
**This isn't.
***We've counted. Well, I've counted. Al and Folly normally run within the first or second sneeze.

Owwie
I have sneezed myself into a headache again.
And the shock of all those sneezes has brought on a pain down my right arm that has the local White Mage Union (Local #432) claiming that shit ain't in their contract.
Must be spring.
yippie
Someone cute, sweet or at least attentive come and administer relief/loving attention please!
Someone?
Anyone?
Well fuck, I guess I’ll go to bed then and see if I can’t sleep and sneeze at the same time.

Why is it funny then?
I have no idea why, but there are some jokes I don’t find funny. That’s not the odd bit. The odd bit is that if you were to simply interject the punch line, I’ll laugh almost every time. I’ll give you an example…
Little Johnnie's teacher asked him how his weekend was.
"Horribly, a car hit my dog in the ass," he said.
She said, "Rectum."
"Wrecked him?" Johnnie said. "Damn near killed him!"
Normally the joke is played out a bit longer, sometimes it’s a scatological joke. The thing is that it’s just not funny to me like that. It seems like it’s trying to hard to get to that punch line. However, if you walk up to me and say “And then he says ‘Wrecked ‘im? Damn near killed ‘im!’” I will laugh just about every time. I’ve tried this on other people, walking into a room, announcing my line and leaving. Always gets a laugh.
Another example
And then the doctor says, “If this is my thermometer, where’s my pen?”
See? You don’t even need to know the rest of the joke, you know comedy when you hear it.
And yet, if you were to try to tell me the whole joke, I’d sigh and grin out of basic politeness, but I’d feel dead inside. Although to be honest, that’s normally just because most folk tell jokes so badly. It’s worse when it’s a good joke too, because a joke told badly won’t just make you feel dead inside, it’ll make you feel like Hell can hold no horrors for you because you’ve been through this. Well, they make me feel that way anyhow.
EDIT: Why yes, I did write this about three days ago and finding it wasn't ever really going to go anywhere just decided to post it. How ever did you guess?
