I had a Frazetta calendar in my lab every year until one of the female techs complained, about the pornography.

When I showed my girlfriend the Frazetta playing cards....she bought a set for herself she liked 'em so much!

After taking the first two summers off at college....I spent my first summer in school because there were a couple classes I needed to take before the fall quarter. Ended up rooming with 4 buddies from New Smyrna in a 3 bedroom apartment off campus. I spent a fair amount of time reading that summer - and went through the entire Robert E. Howard "Conan" series - I think it was about 11 paperbacks at the time. Epic reading - Howard was an amazing writer.

Years later the movie came out and I was of course delighted to see the character(s) come alive on the screen. Including 'Pipeline Master' Gerry Lopez.

For all you other barbarians - here's a nice little documentary on the film:

Thanks Baz,
I had no idea of the books, only the movie. Will give them a read. Just goes to show you how little I know.

Cheers

Not directly related although Bill talks about how Arnold got the role (hysterical but lots of "F" Bombs). :)
