"Konbanwa,

My name is gurdymonkey  and though I am but a weak and feeble woman I am worth ten thousand of you. Come out and fight me if you dare. (*)

If you do not care to be haunted by the badass ghosts of Murasaki Shikibu AND Saito Musashibo Benkei, you might want to fix that source citation at the foot of this week's entry. Murasaki-hime did not write The Tale of the Heike. She wrote The Tale of Genji which is not anything close to the same thing.

Thank you,
etc. "

*If he's actually READ it, he will recognize this for a variant on the standard formula for picking a fight in The Tale of the Heike. If he hasn't, he will hopefully cower at my badassity.

You bet your bad ass I sent it.

Theyr'e both long. They're both prose. They're both Japanese.

Tale of Genji =/= Tale of THE Genji.
