Yes, of course, Herodotus MacGuireskysen, the blind, dyslexic, Greco/Scottish/Russian/Swedish playright of the early 20th Century, who lived in the Aleutian Islands, and wrote constantly of Bermuda, Aruba, and the French Riviera. He was cold all the time, you see, so --- :lol:
I didn't know other people read his works! I'm impressed, Valerius!
Ah...that must be the same writer responsible for "The 13th Warrior" sort of a "Seven Samurai" plus Six, if evoking that great film in the same sentence as "13th Warrior" is not too much of an insult to Kurosawa.
(And don't get me wrong, I like "13th Warrior." I know, I know, but I plead the Guilty Pleasure Defense and beg mercy.) :wink:
