M walks up onto a crate and tries to get the attention of his fellow mafiosi.

"Hello, everybody. I just came here, simply, to ask you all a question. Quite simply put, whatever happened to the Rourke's? I remember, when my ancster joined this thing of ours, and I was just a small lad, there were several of them! Mickey, Thomas, Fork, Rourkey, and all the others. Now, look through the public records. Dead, almost all of them. I was just wondering, and maybe someone could give an explaination, whatever happened to them? Where did they go? It's hardly a used name nowadays. Very few in the last while have carried it. I know this seems trivial, but it's a youngsters curiousity. Is it considered obsolete? Is it frowned upon, for one reason or another? Am I missing something? If someone could give me a response, I'd much appreciate it."

M sits on the soap box and waits for a crowd member to respond.

Once upon a time it was impossible to swing a cat for all the Rourkes littering the streets, getting in the way of honest chaps like myself. But life continually evolves, and new names rise to prominence. I'm sure you've noticed the plague of Andolinis sweeping across the nation, but most unfortunate of all is the Waffle menace. There was a bit of a genocide some days ago now, launched in an effort to eradicate us. Sadly however, the blitz was only a partial success, and that Syrup lass still wanders hither and tither.

In time however, we too will die out, and another (but inferior) craze will ignite the passions of the populace.

MickeyRourke!!! w000p!

I miss the Rourke's ..they were like..totally awesomeness!!

You do realize that that term (and any/all derivatives/relations) is a patented-registered-trademarked-copyright? Owned by yours truly (i.e. me)? Ergo, I'm suing you.

Your accountant makes note that $1 has been wired to Awesomizard from your account.

Apparently you won, so on behalf of TSA I have paid you the compensation!!!

Funny how you didn't mention the main Rourke, Rourke.

Who the hell cares about the Rhoukies...

Where are the Dagenhams?... Heh

Fyi I pwn Y'all.

And now it's Waffletime!

You've never heard of the Dagenhams?
