The famous character Sanjûrô was in 4 films?

1961's Yôjinbô aka Yojimbo
1962's Tsubaki Sanjûrô aka Sanjuro
1970's Zatôichi to Yôjinbô aka Zatoichi Meets Yojimbo which in turn was one of around 20 - 30 Zatoichi films, which are still being made.
and
1970's Machibuse aka The Ambush: Incident at Blood Pass

The character and stories have been copied several times most notably by Clint Eastwood as the "Man with no Name" but was in fact copied from an American book The Red Harvest by Dashiell Hammett.

You can? At will? That's interesting. It's happened to me exactly once since puberty. There's also a chance that we may have different ideas of what an erection is, which has caused problems with this statistic in the past.

Dear Bill,
When I walked into this office just now I felt the same sense of wonder and respect that I felt four years ago. I know you will feel that too.
I wish you great happiness here. I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described.
There will be very tough times, made even more difficult by criticism you may not think is fair. I’m not a very good one to give advice; but just don’t let the critics discourage you or push you off course.
You will be our President when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well.
Your success now is our country’s success. I am rooting hard for you.
Good luck –
George


It is said that neither the Kangaroo or the Emu can take a backwards step and that is why they are on the Australian Coat of Arms - Actually both animals can move backwards but do it very infrequently.

It's difficult, but I've done it as well. You can't pee and ejaculate at the same time, different tubes, but when you get an erect penis it takes a while for the blood to flow elsewhere, during which time the spongy tissue is still engorged.
