I’ve never met a ninja I didn’t like
Ah, the elusive ninja. Strong, silent and deadly. Many secrets are contained in the lore of the ninja – never to be revealed in the western world.

Until now.

To attain inner peace and kick some serious ass, stealth type entertheninja.com into your Web browser. With a tongue-in-cheek approach, the site highlights the ways of the ninja, including weapons, history, clothes and magic. The Ninja School page is a must-see, with helpful diagrams in addition to proper ninja etiquette ("When encountering large falls and leaps it is appropriate to always give the right-of-way to the first ninja to jump"). You’ll also find words to live by in the Ninja Wisdom section ("Never scream just before attacking another ninja from behind. This will only alarm the ninja that you are about to do something funky").

In addition, instructional videos are available on the site, with constructive commentary to aid you in picking the video that’s right for you. For example, Ninja III: The Domination shows how to throw a ninja star with your toes while holding on to a helicopter.

After schooling yourself and becoming one with your ninja brothers, you’ll want to pick up a T-shirt. However, pick carefully – there is a warning that some shirts may kick your ass.
