The greatest swordsman contest?
In Ancient Japan, the Emporer had a contest to determine who was the greatest samurai swordsmen. After countless contests, three samurai were bought up before the Emporer in his courtyard. For the first swordsman, the judge opens a box with a fly and releases it. In a lightning swipe, the first samurai, cuts the fly in half. Then the judge, opened a box with a fly for the second samurai. In two lightning strokes, the second samurai has cut the fly in half and quartered it. Then the judge, preceded to open a box with a fly for the third samurai. In one lightning blur the third samurai swiped his sword at the fly, but the fly was still alive and flying around. The other two samurai smiled, thinking the third samurai had missed. But the third samurai turned and bowed to the emperor and said, "That fly will never live to reproduce again."
