How come all the Rourke are so powerful and there are atleast a hundred thousamd?!?!

Are they going to take over the world?

What is a Rourke?

Some one tell me!

One is a GodFather the other is a Don, and all the sons of the past Rourkes are rich or something.

Can someone explaine to me what a Rourke is!!!!!!!

Should I name my kin RampageRourke?

Im going Crazy!!!!

A Rourke is the homeless man that lives in the dark alley way. The one with the raspy voice that always ask for spare change and booze.

Or atleast that's what I think. lol. Always wanted one of my kin to be a Rourke, but at the same time, with all the people having a Rourke name, the thought of having that name seems played out.

A Rourke is a selective brotherhood (and sisterhood, don't forget us wimminz) made up of Mobsters who all coincidentally have the last name, though none of them are blood related in any way whatsoever. There are Rourkes who carry the name Rourke, Rourkes who have been thrust in my marriage, and in some cases there are even "honorary Rourkes" who have the Rourke honor bestowed upon them for certain deeds and achievements within This Thing of Ours.

They "are so powerful" because they lean upon one another and work together to slay the bad guys and get mystical swords and rescue princesses from dragons.

Being one of said Rourkes, I feel our motto should be "Being a Rourke is an honor, not a privilege", but I was voted against in the most recent meeting by Thomas and the late Rourkey who felt it would be better if said motto was "We Like Tits and Ass". They also do not recognize women speakers at their monthly meetings. Perhaps this was why my idea was so forcefully rejected.

Yea but look I think the Rourk name gives you power!!

They are going to take over the World and eat puppies, just wait.

Tit's and Beer all the way Marietta :D

The name Rourke does not give us power. It merely nourishes us from birth (or acceptance into the Rourke ranks), so that we may grow to be the best that we can be.

We still have our failures. Look at Rourke. He's only a goomba.

Pats Rampage on the shoulder.

Calm down dude. They are not ganna take over the world. LOL. Just throw something shiny at them, THEY LOSE THEIR MINDS! I've seen it happen. lol.

Im already eating puppies.

It gives me pleasure.

That's the idea!

Gives DannyBoyRourke his very own puppy.

Chomp away, you deserve it. =D

Thank you Skitzo! Why dontcha join me, eh?

Begins to salt the puppy

Then what do you call those large water birds whose diets consist mostly of fish and other sea creatures, which they scoop from the water with the expandable pouches under their beak?

Oh. Right. Pelicans.

You see how I was confused. Anyway, those fuckers are the ones you have to watch. They'll snatch your sandwich faster than Fatty Arbuckle.

I will!!

Picks up a sharp knife and aims for the head

"You want a leg or a breast?" ahhaha

Hey Danny look a shinny nickle!!

Rourke paused a second after hearing his name bandied about the streets so casually. One point in particular stood out in his mind and he felt a need to address it directly:

We still have our failures. Look at Rourke. He's only a goomba.

I'd like it to be known that Marietta snores in her sleep. I know this from personal experience as she hates to leave my bedroom.

Rourke silently sharpened his gun in the shadows and waited for the proper time to strike.

Oh screw you. I just get scared at night, that's all. You never know what might try and creep into my bedroom without warning.

Ah, damn Rourke, got it made dontcha. Maybe if you...

...Woah! Look at that tshiny thing!

Paws at the nickle like a kitty

Rourke chuckled to himself softly and pointed out the obvious to the ravishing Ms. Rossi:

Oh screw you.

Clearly this was the point of your visit to my bedchambers, was it not?

Rourke sat down in a plush armchair that materialized out of nowhere and smirked at the crowd.

But who was Papa Rourke?

Who was the first Rourke ever?!?!

If I had to take a guess, i'd say Mickey :P

But, thats just by assumption.

The very first Rourke was Thomas, followed closely by his brother Brian. Shortly thereafter came Mickey, Rourkey, et. al.

A lot of people consider Thomas to be the first Rourke. But he's actually the last. They're such mysterious people that they actually appear in reverse order. True story.
