One less Khan in the world. Or Galaxy.

When I was a kid, I thought his name was "Retardo Montoblah". It should have been. That's way funnier.

Wow.
It's way too long ago for some of you, but he used to do ads for Chrysler where he talked about "rich Corinthian leather" - translation: "reeecsh core-in-thian laether."
Could never get that out of my head about him.

DIdn't he also do the Volare' commercial?
P.S. I'll answer my own question- No. Some guy named Al Martino sang the Volare' song.

Oh wow, the flash backs I am having right now. His commercial with the corrinthium leather was the basis of my parady commercial I did in 6th grade to a bood report. The nun I had as a teacher thought my creativity on it was so good that she gave me a letter to give to my parents...I thought I had done something horrific and I she could see it in my face that she did not tell me what the letter was about. I ran the 3 blocks home and made my mom read right away I was I screaming I didn't do anything wrong....the letter was praising my talents...the next morning I gave sister a look she started laughing saying "how could I tell you what it was about your face looked so pitiful it was to funny to spoil that". Boy I will miss Kahn.....

Funny...I was just telling my wife who he was and I said he was the guy that talked about the "rich Corinthian leather" being that she didn't really watch Fantasy Island.

I'm a child of the 70's, so when I think of Ricardo Montalban I think of one man, and that is Mr. Rourke (and Vincent Ludwig).

He was on Letterman a few years ago and admitted that "Corinthian leather" meant absolutely nothing. It was pure marketing jibberish.
I sooo wanted leather seats because of those commercials....until I discovered what Reech Kohr-ri-thee-yahn leather does to your ass in the summer. A buddy had a 442 Olds with blue and white leather, and it was miserable. But it looked cool.
