One year ago, yesterday, May 17, 2011, I created this blog, the Kosher Samurai. One year ago, today, I published my first blog article, set out below. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I prefer to spell it bl*g or bl*gging. I have some strange aversion to the way the word is usually spelled. Not sure why. I just do. [...]

They say that opposites attract. That presumes that the attraction is mutual, I suppose. (The gun totin’ Southern Redneck Good Ole Girl) I’m not sure that is always, or even often, the case. (Hitler Youth – more my son’s type than mine, really… but still…) Take the example some of the kinds of women to whom [...]

I have been accused by more than one alleged friend of having an ‘Unhealthy Interest’ in zombies. Well, honestly. These days, who doesn’t? I mean, really. (♥ I’m a zombie girl… in a zombie world ♥) Yes, but [1]… these so-called friends are quick to point out that, unlike yours truly, most other (i.e. normal) [...]

Years ago, my beloved friend, CW, and I were sitting down to dinner. We’d met not long before and were still very much in the ‘getting to know each other’ phase of our relationship. Things were going very well. We were both quite fond of one another. Conversation was light, entertaining and quite enjoyable. We [...]

Tomorrow morning, May 1, 2012, my son, Exhibit Two [1], flies off back to Israel. He is taking part in the Jerusalem Fellowships program for three weeks, studying at Aish HaTorah in Jerusalem as well as traveling to various other places as part of the program. His sister, my daughter Exhibit One, did the program last [...]

A very dear friend of mine, LFD, likes sushi. LFD and I quite often work in the same courthouse. There is a wonderful sushi restaurant around the corner from said courthouse. Put the three above statements together and it was not long before LFD and I decided that steps of some sort ought to be [...]

Ever been within earshot of elderly people when they are in mid-rant? I don’t know what happens to older people when they reach a certain point in their lives. Perhaps old age loosens inhibitions, kind of like drugs or alcohol but without the knowledge that tomorrow, everything will be back to normal and you’ll be [...]

The other day, I received a series of text messages from my son, Exhibit Two, asking some questions about preparing for The Upcoming Zombie Apocalypse. Me being a ‘Noted Zombie Expert’ (in addition to his dear old Daddio), it was only natural that he come to me. I put this question to him… a question I [...]

When I first saw a photo of this little treat the other day, I said, “WOW!” A pizza cone. What a stroke of genius! Pizza dough, formed into the shape of a cone and filled with pizza toppings! This is the best thing since the calzone… basically a pizza turnover! While not nearly in the [...]

It’s pretty much common knowledge that when a guy gets sick, he turns into a big, kvetchy, insufferable sucky-baby. Why is this? Well, I have a theory that I developed this past week when I myself was down with a cold. It started as a cough last Wednesday, then developed into a pretty darn annoying [...]
