Lol. A great punchline for the post. You build the context and the groundwork for the punchline in amazing detail and a finely written story. Good job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a hoot. I got caught up in the story line and wondered where this was going. Good use of dialogue. Reading this over again, it seems like the fly is a symbol of the old regime.

Hahahahaha! OMG! This should have been in a contest; you would have won hands down. That was soooo funny. I'll be laughing all day, calling my relatves and reciting this in their ear. I'm so glad I have a six left.

I like how quickly the stage is set, and the imagery of each samurai slicing the fly. Perhaps more humour earlier might lead the reader toward the punchline more smoothly.
