If it were me, I’d likely pull out my best Urkel impression and say “Did I do that?”

This family has ninja roots going back 500 years. And it looks like Jinichi will become the final one, as he doesn’t have plans to pass his skills over to a 22nd clan head. If you believe the Japanese folklore, the ninjas’ ancestor is a demon that was half man and half crow.

People say that “time flies” and this is something we all notice when our children, pets, and parents grow older. But nothing escapes the passage of time. Think about those stairs that people have used to go up and down for decades, maybe in a public library, or in a museum. And what about going to the same hairdresser and using the same hairbrush for years and years. If we want to find the true meaning of “time flies,” the best thing we can do is to look around and try to recall what some of the things we use every day looked like when we first bought them.
