Picture request (Tweak/LCR) > Washington

Posted: 1/24/2007 9:28:58 AM EDT

Tweak aksed me in his recent letter to get a group photo of you all at the upcoming LCR. He suggests one with the guns, and one without, just in case.

I'm not sure about my own attendance at this point, or I'd handle it on my own. If some of you will consider taking this task on, we'd appreciate it. Also, someone with a decent photo printer might chip in as well...
I'll take care of shipping if you can get it to me, or I can provide the addy to whoever wants it.

If not, he also suggested the alternative of just getting one of PCR in a teddy, or the like.

I can do it if the others will cooperate. Have a good printer or can fax to whoever wants to make copys. Tweak doesn't know me so if I am not in it won't matter.

Excellent!

Slap 1GR in the back of the head with something heavy when you're ready. He can get everyone to line up and say cheese for you. (or anyone else with loud voice who's in the 200+ lb club)

Don't feel bad Dino. I was just chatting with Petagunner, (OR HTF Mod), and realized we totally forgot to send an invite down south for this past LCR.

I need my ass kicked for that...

Dino,

I don't think it was ever your responsibility to set up the shot--just to take the picture when the time came. One of us veterans should have organized it. We dropped the ball, not you.

You are totally off the hook.

Frightened? Did I ever say that I was scared?

I have my reasons and I don't need to justify my decisions.

Well, other then to say that sombody told me once that I looked a bit like you so in good conscience, I have to not let my pics go up on the internet because it already has enough ugly on it and I don't need to be adding to it...

Well, here's what I found. From www.myuselessknowledge.com/joe/ninjas.html

Base of Operations: Japan

First Appearance: G.I. JOE #21 (1984) (clan tattoo); G.I. JOE #26 (1984) (clan)

History: An ancient, respected clan of ninjas. Centuries ago in Japan, the Arashikage clan was a renowned family of ninjas. The clan was famous for their techniques, including the "Arashikage Mind-Set," the "Sleeping Phoenix," the "Ear That Sees," and the "Cloak of the Chameleon."

By the time of the Vietnam War, the size of the clan had dwindled, but still remained powerful in Japan. The head of the clan at that time was known as the Hard Master. He and his brother, the Soft Master, gave their nephew, Thomas Arashikage, an important role in the clan, calling him the Young Master (#26). Near the completion of his training, Tommy was sent to fight in the Vietnam conflict. For him, it was a rite of passage; only in war could he become a true warrior (#155). While in Vietnam, Tommy served in Long Range Recon Patrol (LRRP). There he met Snake-Eyes. The two soldiers became close friends. Tommy was so impressed by Snake-Eyes' fighting skills, he offered him a place in his "family business" when the war was over. For Snake-Eyes, it was not long before he returned home. Their LRRP unit was attacked by North Vietnamese soldiers, and a patrol of six became a patrol of three. Tommy, Snake-Eyes and Stalker were the only members of the team to escape. During the escape, Snake-Eyes was wounded and was sent back to America. On arrival, Snake-Eyes discovered that his parents and twin sister had been killed in an automobile accident. After wandering for a time, Snake-Eyes decided to travel to Japan and join the clan as Tommy had asked him to. He was welcomed into the Arashikage household and became as skilled as any other ninja.

Snake-Eyes became the Hard Master's star pupil. In some ways, his skills surpassed Tommy's (#26). While Tommy and Snake-Eyes trained, the clan was infiltrated by the man known as Firefly. He had been hired by Cobra Commander to kill Snake-Eyes. The Commander's brother had died in the accident that killed Snake-Eyes' family, and he blamed the family's surviving son. Firefly was a master of the Koga clan, and was given access to the Arashikage household. When he saw how skilled Snake-Eyes was, he knew he could not kill him. He then referred Cobra Commander to Zartan (#126). Zartan became the apprentice of Onihashi, the Arashikage swordsmith (#84). One night, he stole one of Tommy's arrows and using a compound bow with enhanced sensors, he killed the man behind a screen in the clan's household, believing him to be Snake-Eyes. It actually turned out to be the Hard Master, teaching Snake-Eyes the "Cloak of the Chameleon." The technique allowed someone to take on the mannerisms and motions of another person. The Hard Master had pretended to be Snake-Eyes. Tommy was blamed for the assassination of the Hard Master and fled. He joined Cobra, vowing to rise through the ranks of the organization and discover who had killed the Hard Master.He called himself "Storm Shadow," arough translation of "Arashikage." With the death of the Hard Master and the departure of Storm Shadow, the clan was in ruins.Most of the ninjas scattered and the clan was no more.

Years later, Storm Shadow and Snake-Eyes discovered that Zartan had killed the Hard Master. Storm Shadow vowed to avenge his uncle's death, but Zartan escaped him (#45-47). Shortly afterward, Zartan contacted many of the scattered Arashikage ninjas. He hired them to protect him against Storm Shadow's threat. These "Red Ninjas" blamed Storm Shadow for destroying the clan by inviting an outsider, Snake-Eyes, to join (#91). They began to work for Zartan and Cobra, and fought Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow and their allies on many occasions. The Red Ninjas were later summoned by Firefly, who posed as an Arashikage master (#126). When they found out Firefly had lied to them, they abandoned him. The Red Ninjas' current whereabouts are unknown.

Some of the Arashikage clan still survives today. The G.I. Joe Ninja Force was comprised of Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow and other students of the Hard Master, Soft Master and Blind Master (#118). Some former members of the Ninja Force have recently opened a martial arts school in New York City (#145). Undoubtedly, some of their students will choose to follow the path of the ninja, and the Arashikage clan may one day rise again

In summary, he's 12.
