Abe Pike is played by Don Francks ... right? Old, ugly, and a
nare-do-well, right? Nasty, nasty man... was Gus Pike's Pa???? Or was it
Captain Crane, eh?

Well, if you want a treat. LOL. Get a copy of the 1968 film "Finian's
Rainbow" starring Fred Astaire, Petula Clark and Don Francks.

Why? Well, dear friends, you will get to see our old friend Abe
..singing ... dancing ... and romancing Petula Clark. No kidding. This
you have got to see !!!!!!
And, surprise of all surprises, he can sing - and dance , too !

On a side note. The film is Finian's Rainbow. It is set in the town of
Rainbow Valley ( not all that far from Fort Knox). Don Francs has a son
named Rainbow Sun Francks ... He plays Lt. Aiden Ford in "Stargate:
Atlantis" <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374455/> (2004). His sister Cree
Summer <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0838588/> played Princess 'Kida'
