One of the most important was that of the Taika Reform, issued by Prince Naka no Ōe (Emperor Tenji) in 646 AD. This edict introduced Chinese cultural practices and administrative techniques throughout the Japanese aristocracy and bureaucracy" from the "Samurai" entry of Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai
  • inactive, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Damn you google maps. That's a giant fail.
  • robdiggity, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Yeah! I'm down wid your OPP!

    (and to compound that fail, I even pronounce that "ahp")
  • sofaKing812, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1I would like to offer my most sincere apology to n33b up above. I did not see your comment.
  • Dragular, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1Attempting to save the fail is fail.
  • robdiggity, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1"...competently executed maneuver..."

    Thanks man.
  • inactive, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1And how does that make kung-fu any less chinese and samurais and katanas any less japanese?
  • sofaKing812, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1The game of chess, is like a swordfight
    You must think first, before you move
    Toad style is immensely strong, and immune to nearly any weapon
    When it's properly used, it's almost invincible

    Anyone know what movie the Wu took this from?
  • praderwillie, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1RZA is one with the force

  • jlee2081, on 04/16/2008, -1/+1When is the online DARTS game coming?
  • inactive, on 04/16/2008, -1/+1::ching ching:::
  • AlphaR75, on 04/16/2008, -2/+1Is it still a fail if it's clearly intended to be one? For example, if a clown trips on another clown's outstretched leg and lands in a custard pie, is that a fail? Or simply a competently executed maneuver?
  • inactive, on 04/16/2008, -3/+2"Our question is: Will the site have a kung-fu element? (We're willing to bet it will.) We imagine a battle-chess style game, possibly featuring katana-wielding Afro-Samurais."
