Not to mention all these damn pesky Samurais running around. What's next I ask you... what's next.
Wait. Don't answer that.

Dear God!
No wonder you wanted me to read it!!!
Did you know anyone involved?
Earl thought he might had seen Thomas The Samurai around town but other than that, we only recognized the house. We pass it everyday on the way to... well, anything. It happens to be right next to the Police Substation.
Actually, I guess it would Sonny The Samurai. Sounds like a children's book...
