To Give:

1. Turn rainy days into fun days for him with a Ninja umbrella.

Rain: Ninja. You are but a mere mortal and no match for my powerful torrent. Do you surrender?

Ninja: Ah, Rain. You are a most worthy opponent and teacher. But I will never surrender.

Rain: Ha! Ha! Ha! Your bravery humors me. Please continue.

Ninja: Laugh now, Rain, for it will be the last time.(Unsheathes umbrella.)

Rain: The ninja umbrella. But I thought it was a myth!

Ninja: Used by the samurais before me. Passed down by my ancestors. Full of the wisdom of the ancients. With this umbrella, I will defeat you once and for all, and I will bring honor to my family and dry clothes to my home. HIIIIYAAAA!

    TS, you are too crazy with that ninja dialog. I was thinking of getting the umbrella for two from last year’s gift guide. Does somebody live in a rainy climate, by chance? Anywa, great gift ideas and the ninja thing is hilarious.

    Hey there, I think that Ninja Umbrella would be a good gift for where I am headed:  Seattle!  It is raining there, as a matter of fact, even though we are expecting a snow blow out storm in NY!

    Let me know how the umbrella-for-two works out. At the very least, makes for a great photo-op.

Speak your mind
