Facebook status of the day
Regular TigerHawk comment troll Christopher Chambers "knows that up in Heaven, Bruce Lee is whooping David Carradine's ASS!" That's a safe bet, I would say.

Hopefully Bruce will be a sport and let David untie all the various "entanglements" first.

It would be beneath Bruce Lee to pick a fight with an amateur. And David Carradine would prefer to make love, not war. (Kwai Chang Caine avoided violence whenever he had another option.)
From the New York Times:
"'Kung Fu' made its debut as an ABC movie of the week in 1972, then ran as a series until 1975. And though Mr. Carradine was NOT PROFICIENT in the martial arts himself — he studied them later — the show was influential in the rise of American interest in them and in Eastern philosophy."

Why would Chrissy have any clue as to what goes on in heaven?

, atLike a broken clock, is it possible even Chambers is correct twice a day?? I was thinking maybe once a year.
, atSo Carradine is up there with a rope tied around his weiner and his neck. I'm not on board with doing prostitutes, but dammit Jim ... he was in Thailand, where $100 gets you a lotta partying, and very low priced 'entertainment', and here he is doing a hyperventilation spank and finally snatched that pebbie from the Old man's hand? What a pathetic way to be found dead.

Come on! Bruce Lee was an *actor*!
Kung Fu was REAL!
You have to love the New York Post ... headline "Hung Fu"
Link, over

Context: Bruce pitched the idea for the series Kung Fu to Hollywood. Of course they appropriated it--and Hollywood promptly went about finding a way to shoe horn a white actor into the role. Allegory for how Hollywood isn't the liberal monolith you love to hate.
Bruce was not happy. And then, of course, he died. David's cast, and the rest is history...
PS Gary Rosen--was that a pithy comment from you? Glad you've graduated from dumb to pithy. LOL
- Love "Chrissy"
Chambers is wrong in that Bruce Lee was a Christian, David Carradine was follow a variety of strange paths. Them meeting in Heaven would be unlikely.

Carradine was an atheist, then a Buddhist, then a drug addict, then a sex addict then back to Buddhism. As for Heaven, who knows?
Indeed, Brandon Lee could like beat up on Carradine.
