I know! Same for me. The mask, the sword, great stuff! I thought Antonio Banderas was a natural pick in the movies. I liked him since Assassins came out!... Thanks for commenting my friend!.............80)

Yeah the first part is especially hard to read. I redid it many times and got it right, then when I submitted it, it flew apart so I had to try again. Whew!.....80)
