American Wusses.

One thing I have learned by watching The New American Gladiators (it was accident, I swear!) is that Americans are a bunch of pansies. Not a single contender -- or "gladiator" has anything on a Ninja Warrior.

I know it's harder than it looks, but the stuff on Ninja Warrior looks really hard. None of this running up a conveyor belt with the aid of a rope. In Japan, you must run against the conveyor belt using your own stamina and strength!

Of course, I also would have difficulty doing much of anything requiring physical exertion so...

In the Meantime...

I will get back to blogging. Just a little busy right now. In the meantime, I give you: Ninja Warrior.

So awesome.

So Worth It.

I know it's way past my bedtime, but I don't really sleep so well until Jamie's home anyway. This is worth the post. You guys, I have found the single most incredible television program. It knocks all of my other guilty pleasures (since getting cable) out of the water. It is called...NINJA WARRIOR. Seriously. These people compete to be the next NINJA WARRIOR. They climb up walls and jump across caverns. They spin and flip. It's amazing.

Really, the only thing good enough to tear me away from NINJA WARRIOR is sharing the Ninja-goodness with all two of my blog readers. Japanese television is the best thing ever.
