The Mysterious Cities of Gold

An anime from the 80's set in the 16th century during the Spanish conquest of South America. They're searching for the fabled Lost Cities of Gold. Three kids (an Incan princess, a young boy from an ancient Atlantis like culture, and a boy who can magically make 'the sun come out') and three men (a kinda Han Solo like Mendoza and his two buffoon sidekicks) find clues in the New World to the ancient cities as well as advanced, solar powered technology like the flying condor and boat.

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.

Or the Sears Wishbook:




Spend the months before Christmas looking through all the shit your parents will never buy you. I remember seeing some toys that confused me. Like a Superman figure that came with a jet. What the fuck did superman need with a jet? Or a car?

Our network is down at work, btw. For the past 2 hours and 15 minutes, I haven't had anything to do but dick around on the internet.

Contrary to what most people will tell you, two hours is more than enough time to see what's on the internet. 48% porn. 48% cat videos. The other 4% are people being angry at stupid shit or being happy about stupid shit.

This also reminded me of USA's other B-movie haunt, Night Flight. Before Up All Night took over Friday and Saturday late nights on USA, Night Flight was a block of weird cult films, serials, shorts, comedians, and music videos. I remember seeing Fantastic Planet and the 'Warhol' Dracula and Frankenstein films (chill out, Joe. I know they're not really Warhol films) as well as some crazy, risque (for the 50's at least) serials. Not to mention versions of Frankie Goes to Hollywood videos that I don't remember seeing on MTV. They really did push the boundaries of what was allowed on TV for the time.


It's back! But now in POG.


No... wait...


It's just on the internets.
