Tintin

Hi Marc,

I don't know if you used to read Tintin comic books in childhood. My first introduction to llamas came from the Tintin book "Prisoners of the Sun" (its Farsi translation "Ma-bade Khorshid")which happened in Peru. Each time I see or hear about a llama, I immediately think of Captain Haddock and his funny misfortunes with llamas.

Re: Tintin

Thanks Nader,
Yes, I have heard of the children story Tintin, "Mabade Khorshid" but it was after my time and I never got into it. There are a number of young children in our family that are fascinated by the story. I think there has also been an animated movie made about it.

Re: Tintin

I saw the movie. It was a mixture of two different books and a lot of made up stuff.

The L Word

I bet Captain Haddock had problems with both llamas and lamas.

"Blue blistering barnacles!"
