It was a long time ago, but I don’t offhand recall my high school having a policy regarding ninjas. Ah, how times have changed…

School locked down after ‘ninja’ sighted in woods

BARNEGAT, N.J. – It’s the case of the nonexistent ninja. Public schools in Barnegat were locked down briefly after someone reported seeing a ninja running through the woods behind an elementary school.

Turns out the ninja was actually a camp counselor dressed in black karate garb and carrying a plastic sword.

Police tell the Asbury Park Press the man was late to a costume-themed day at a nearby middle school.

The lockdown began shortly after 9 a.m. Wednesday and lasted until 9:30.

    Oxymoron alert! If you can see a ninja running through the woods then it’s not a ninja.

  2. Freyar says:

    Awww damn it! You beat me to it, SJP.

  3. SJP says:

    (Yeah, both at 6:41)

    For a definition of oxymoron:

    Why didn’t you use the Ask A Ninja pic???

    Besides, anyone with any sense knows there is no such thing as ninja. Its a myth, a boogie man story to scare children.

    Behave and eat all your tako or the ninja will get ya!
