Kurofune: The Black Ships is a war story, a love story, a story of redemption and rebirth.
The Battle of Saipan saw the Pacific War’s largest Japanese Banzai attack. Over 4,000 Japanese soldiers died while about 1,000 Marines lost their lives during this harrowing nightmare of a suicide thrust by the Japanese to push the Americans back into the sea.
“Kurofune” tells the story of that tragedy against a backdrop of nationalism, military fanaticism, heroism and self sacrifice. Yet Kurofune is also a love story, a war story, a story of redemption and a story of rebirth.

“Can’t wait,” one senior was heard to say. “Wooo Hooo. Tomato soup for evah!”
“Awesome,” Mike Meyers commented when he heard this breaking news. “Elbows Up man, Elbows Up. Seven Up!”
“Nana, you’re going to love this. Just think, you can share your container with drug smugglers, human trafficker’s, illegal aliens, and so much more. Being old and retired doesn’t have to be boring Nana.”
“Sign me up Son. And dear Lord, please thank the Chow, Chow mayor for this.”

Latest Canadian obfuscation heard in passing.
“Your barrels of oil will be approved for transit so long as those barrels have been de-carbonized.”
Duh. What does that mean? That is like saying we will allow you to drink that beer, or soda, as long as it has been de-carbonated! Yuck, flat! No fizz. No bite. Sucks bigly.
Kinda relevant in today’s world.
Shakeyjay is out of sight, out of mind and out of here.
Have a great day.
