Hey! That's great. I congratulate you. Thanks for writing it; I'm very glad it'll see a wider audience now.

I dimly remember watching "Zatoichi" a few years ago, when I was mildly ill and in a strange mood anyway. It was rambling and went off in odd directions, but I liked the directions. The old lady's lout of a nephew was pretty funny, at that. This is the one, isn't it, which has him sitting in a hot tub asking one of the geisha's family for life advice... that was priceless.
