Answer: father-son

Here is some information on Mr. Cabot as listed on www.enchantedlearning.com:

"Sebastian Cabot (1474?-1557?) was an explorer, mapmaker and navigator of Italian descent. He worked as a cartographer (mapmaker) for England's King Henry VIII, was a captain for Spain's King Ferdinand V, explored for England's King Henry VII, and may have secretly explored for Venice. Sebastian Cabot's father was the explorer John Cabot.

Cabot searched for the Northwest passage across North America (1508). He began an unsuccessful trip around the world (1526-1529) in a voyage that supposed to sail to China and the Moluccas (the Spice Islands, in Indonesia), but he only made it as far as the enormous mouth of the Rio de la Plata (a river between Argentina and Uruguay in South America). Later, he began to work for the English again (for King Charles V), searching for a water passage across the north of Asia around 1553."

Answer: Family Affair

IMDB lists Sebastian Cabot's credits to include numerous guest appearances on such shows as "Bonanza" & "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". He is also listed as being the narrator for some "Winnie the Pooh" cartoons.

Answer: Welcome Back, Kotter

Epstein, Horschack and Vinnie. Now you have to get this theme song out of your head too.

Answer: Junger

The rugged author of "Perfect Storm" is also the author of "Fire", a work based on the struggles of those who put out the huge forest fires we see in the news.

10. Bastian is a form of Sebastian. And if you recall the main character Bastian was in this wonderful fantasy movie with a Luck Dragon, Atreyu, and the Child- Like Empress. What was this movie?

Answer: Neverending Story

I absolutely love this movie. Growing up I grew sad at the death of Atreyu's beloved horse, scared at the Nothing and the wolf and proud of Bastian running down those bullies with help of the Luck Dragon.

"Legend" is another great movie starring Tom Cruise of all people. You have to see Tim Curry as a horned devil. It is hard to believe he is under all that make-up.

"Labyrinth" is another great fantasy movie. Starring Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie as the Goblin King.
