Back in 1492 the only way to do a search for the land of gold in the new world was getting on the boat and behaving badly.
Luckily with modern technology, this isn't necessary. I seem to have stumbled on the secret of the land of gold, hidden in plain sight.
Obviously the canny natives stashed
it all away, and the guarding of it was a hereditary job, passed down grandmother to pet cat, Luckily being passed down father to son was there as a back-up plane to avoid dotty elderly relative syndrome.
Casting our minds back to the 15th century, all it would take is for one absinthe addled printer to mistake the J for an L and suddenly L Dorado, becomes J Dorado. Und zo, the conquistarods (typo, but I decided I prefer it) were looking in totally the wrong kettle of ferrets.
With the power of the internet, ie Facebook, I have discovered a Snr Jose L Dorado of Mexico, which is just a total giveaway...J and L together even, already.
Dan Brown, eat your heart out.
Jose L Dorado

Follow the link quickly, before it's deleted by the Illuminati, or the Templars, or the NSA (run entirely by Freemasons, of course) ... [8th of 7, May 09 2014]

no entende nada. (upside down question mark) eh ? |

"Ha, ha - 'L' sounds like 'el'!" ... ? |

I suppose you could try looking into Chapman's Homer. |
|
| |
I believe the difficult part was translating "Doh!" from the ancient Greek. |
|
| |
I would hear more about these back-up planes. |
|
| |
singular, plane....no one would suspect that the secret was etched onto the blade of the plane, hidden with all the other tools. |
|
| |
Possibly some biblical allegory, Jesus himself being a carpenter. Which might lead us onto the hidden meanings in The Carpenter's songs, but I'm still sober at this point.... |
|
| |
I just assumed there would be more than one.

//Jesus himself being a carpenter // |

Actually, that's a mistranslation. In the original Aramaic, the word
approximates to "craftsman", but is more correctly translated as
"mason"* ... |
|

*This is actually true. Dan Brown, eat your heart out ... |
|

Don't be silly, [8th]; The Freemasons are in decline. They lost the NSA in a game of cards to... |
|
| |
I'd better tell you this outside. |
|
| |
//but is more correctly translated as "mason"* ... |
|
| |
A mason eh, hmm, wondered who was working off the cards re-carving them steps at Masada...all hushed up, put it down to a mass suicide, nods as good as a wink, eh? Now, Jericho, that's another one... |
