I was eight when I saw Quo Vadis, my favorite hero was Hannibal (Victor Mature played him/ excellent choice) Genghiz Khan played by Omar Sharif was a beautifull epic, even though Genghiz was not as good looking/ or as nice a guy Omar played the lead role. Today, I still have same taste in movies as in highschool/ even my taste in cars is same (67 427/400HP) Corvette with powerglide/ factory sidepipes....love the roar of the Tri-Power 427 engine.

Well, as a wee lad in Germany, my Grandfather got me interested in pirates/ treasure....always lots of gold doubloons:cat: Now, I watch "Curse of Oak Island" others.....seems they never find any gold coins:( Makes one wonder, maybe they should look in India.
