> By the way, your "rounin" means boss-less Samurai? :)

it means:

    1) masterless samurai [http://japan.chez.tiscali.fr/TokyoWeb/E-Ronin.htm]
    2) unemployed man
    3) a college student failing his [entrance?] exams [my japanese dictionary
        is somewhere in 7 boxes, so i'm not 100% sure on this last one]

i saw where they [the 47] are buried in tokyo in the late '80s,
well before the film RONIN:

    http://us.imdb.com/Title?0122690

whose romaji is wrong.

and i have have the tattoo [~6x3cm] on my left upper arm, just covered
by a t-shirt sleeve.

gaijin dakara, wakaranai ... :)
