We Are Ronin
I really like this Reagan's Ronin idea; I think it goes well with this site because it's both serious and silly at the same time. It's fun to pretend to be masterless samurai, but it also gives focus to consider ourselves carrying on the honor of Reagan, a man who symbolizes standing stalwart against a terrible enemy. Keeping out a bowl of jellybeans is a small trifle, but, if it can serve as a daily reminder of the more important things in the world to fight for, then it's a good thing as well. As for banners, a number of readers sent in some neat things, but I've decided to go with the simple American flag next to "ronin" in kanji. Now that I think I'm getting a better idea what I want to do with this concept, I'll make a page dedicated to this (and finally get a small crystal bowl to fill with jellybeans for my Reagan shrine). I'll come up with the pledge, and everyone who wants can sign up and put their name under it. For now, I'm going to do at least one serious post each week. I want to try and work towards doing some real good where good is needed, and I'll need your help in doing the actions, coming up with ideas, and pushing me to do what I say I'll do (bah, I shouldn't need help on that last one). Well, more later. Until then, remember the battle cry: "Kill the bastards!" 15 Responses To "We Are Ronin"
Two alligators were sitting at the side of the swamp. "Well, " said the big 'gator, "What you been eatin' boy? " "Democrats, same as you, " replied the small 'gator. "Hmm.Well, where do ya catch 'em? " "Down at 'tother side of the swamp near the parkin' lot by Boudreaux's." "Same here. Hmm. How do you catch 'em? " "Well, I crawls up under one of them Lexuses and waits fer someone to unlock the door. Then I jumps out, grabs 'em on the leg, shake the shit out of 'em, and eats 'em! " "Ah! " says the big alligator, "I think I see your problem.You ain't gettin' any real nourishment." "See, by the time you get done shakin' the bullshit out of a Democrat, there ain't nothin' left but lips and a "We are Ronin, hear us Ro..." Oh, no wait... You won't hear us, we are sneaky ninja... We kick you limp-wristed Terrorist ass without warning 'cause we sneaky.... he he. ...Okay, one blood curdling battle-cry to give warning.... Whatever! (Sheesh, not like it gonna make a difference. When you see us, it will already be too late.) Mwa ha ha! #3 - Posted by: LokiDoki on June 23, 2004 10:03 AMMrs. Hoover... I ate all my shrine jelly beans... #4 - Posted by: Ralph on June 23, 2004 10:24 AMOne last idea for the banner, I'mnot sure if it can be done though. How about just putting "ronin" in kanji but make the letters larger and wider using the flag as the font color instead of black? #5 - Posted by: DaDougster on June 23, 2004 10:44 AMYeah a ronin site would be great. I think you should have an archive with all the "thoughts of the day" posted in it. Peace through stength! #6 - Posted by: Fortes on June 23, 2004 11:57 AM"Kill the Bastards!" will work fine. We could use "KTB" as a shorthand reference. #8 - Posted by: MAJ Mike on June 23, 2004 12:22 PMI enjoy the Reagan's Ronins thing...it reminds me of Dumbledore's Army from Harry Potter V. #9 - Posted by: dvgulliver on June 23, 2004 03:39 PMWhat if you changed Frank's Fan Club to Reagan's Ronin? #10 - Posted by: blackbird4739 on June 23, 2004 04:15 PM"Kill the bastards!" is a wonderful battle cry. Reminds me of my RPG geek days, playing Paranoia. #11 - Posted by: AWG on June 23, 2004 04:21 PMI am myself a ronin (until I get a job again), so I have absolutely nothing to lose by placing my sword in the service of Frank J.'s unrelenting war against Evil Monkeydom. #12 - Posted by: Bloodthirsty Warmonger on June 23, 2004 05:46 PMHow wrong you are to think you aren't already doing "real good where good is needed". Humor can be a mighty weapon in the hands of an expert. #13 - Posted by: Mike Homiller on June 23, 2004 05:53 PMReagan Ronin? Sounds tempting, and possibly more kickass than my faction, the Clinton Shinsengumi. #14 - Posted by: K.
