In 1532 Esteban, the 'Child of the Sun' Sailed the osthion Blue-and was sea sick!

A 16th Centurey sailers limaric-written by Mendozsa,

No I haven't gone mad but those words will make sence only if you have seen (or heard of) the geratest Amine (well kind of as it was not a purely Japanese cartoon) of all time...

I'm talking about The Mysterious Cities of Gold I did talk about this before but not many people replyed so I'm doing it again!

I won't go into to much detail as you'll find a whole load of info that'll make even Tao feel humble!

The Show is a classic of amimation and what's more is not just like any other kids show, it's got a huge adult appel so ou'd be a fool to pass this one by

Now you can get it on DVD so there's no exceuse to miss out!

What I'm perpossing is to start a new 'foram within a foram' maybe called 'The Children of The Sun' and so at long last fellow fans can discuss all things MCoG.

Maybe we can do some fanfic as I've got a few new ideas that I'd like to tell ou all...

So what are you whating for? Our time has just begun as not only is a new season in the pipeline, so I'll go now a (all together now..)

Goodbye Till Next Time...

P.S. If any of you girls look like Zia I'll be your Esteban if you like!

Oddly enough, I remember it best from watching it on the French-language network of CBC (or is that SRC, for Société Radio-Canada?)

Anyhow,

Thanks for your replies (and the clip!) So then how's about a discution?

I'll start with 'Is the portrayal of Zia Sexist?'

I'll give you my answer next week same time, same channel.

On another note do any of you have any fanfic ideas? If so then feel free to tell us all about them.

Here are a few storylines that I've come up with for a project that I like to call 'The Myserious Cities of Gold:Season 2 (not very origenal but it was the best I could do!)

1. The Valley of Doom: At long last our heroes leave the New World for another, Japan were they meet new a ally (in the shape of the Chinnse female warrior Ping chemo) and new foes!

2. Shang Tong the Terroribe Landing in China Zia has chourt the eye of the evil perast Shang Tong who plans to marry her (and make her his slave), otherwise Esteban dies!!

3. The Secret of Shangra li In the Himlayeras the Second City of Gold is discovered! And it is ruled by an evil tyrant and only Zia and Ping chemo can save the others.

4. The Bride of Esteban A comic tale telling of how Esteban and Zia get married, in India, after many comic setbacks!! !

5. Return of the Olemcs! Still in India Esteban is having nightmarares about the death of his father (he discovered this inThe Secret of Shangra li) However it turns out that he may still be alive (abet barely) and a prisoner of the evil Olmecs, how they survied and a trilling adventure ensures as our heroes once more do battle with there most deadly foes!

So then thanks for reading this, I hope that you liked my story ideas and that you would like to see them some day.

So now I'll be back next week, and all together now...

Goodbye Till Next Time!

This Topic has gone quiet of late so I'll start a new debate,

Was Tao an Aspie?

If you are a fan of the show I'm sure that you know what I mean, as he's (among other things) smart, a little arragant, and heck he even falls for a girl (Myeena) only to find that she was engaged!

How much more Aspie can you get?

As it happened when I was a kid I was a lot like Tao (abet a white one) and to make things even more werd I knew a another boy about my age, who was just like Esteban (apart from the fact he had blond hair) and this same young boy had a girlfriend who not only behaved like Zia, but was her spitting image!! !! !!

Sadly we did not however go round South America in a Golden Cordor, or fight Olmecs and Spianards.

However I do think that from time to time the Sun would come out on a rainy day whenever this young boy would come out to play I can't prove this, but I do have a funny feeling that in a past life I once saw the Cities of Gold (Ha Ha)

Gooodbye Till Next Time

Thanks that's a really good one! It's good to see that some people are still following this topic!! !

Can any of you guys (and gals) think of any more reasons as to why Tao is an Aspie?

Sorry I've got to go now as a curten comrade of mine has just got verigo while trying to save his girlfriend from an Olmec!?!

(Added to that he's just been knocked out, so unless our navgator friend can save him I doubt very much on our continued surviel)

After all I can't let those mutants get a hold of my jar as they may have sticky hands.....

Goodbye, Till Next Time.
