Suicide? Weird. RIP.

Just read that. Kooky-weird.

RIP.

Aw, man. RIP dude.

Wow. I grew up watching Kung Fu. Sorry to hear this.

There is a rumor going around my desk that Uma Thurman killed him and made it look like a suicide because of those damned yellow book commercials.

Hung fu

Maybe he finally let the guilt of stealing Bruce Lee's TV show get to him?

Sad, he will be missed.

Apparently a sex accident.

If that's true, you gotta respect a guy that goes out that way at age 72!

I cannot access it from work but apparently thesun.com reports it as a sex act gone wrong.

I think this is the link you're looking for:

To be fair, 9 times out of 10 the Sun is a piss-poor fiction-gossip rag. Heck if I read it there first I'd look around to see if he really died.

When I first read the report on the BBC, it said he was discovered with a length of rope around "his neck and genitals." When I IM-ed the report to Margie a few minutes later, it had been changed and read "his neck and body."

At any rate, you'd think that if you were going to do that in Thailand of all places, you could find someone to spot for you.

I REALLY hope that makes it into print somewhere other than in the ether.

Shades of Michael Hutchins....

I also grew up watching Kung Fu, he will be missed

Maybe he did, but he/she/it panicked and bolted?

Yeah, I immediately thought of Michael Hutchense, and that dude that used to draw "Cheech Wizard" Vaughn Bode.

Kung Fu,??? Hell...Death Race 2000 FTMFW!!!!

Kill Bill 3.

Cannonball!

I had no idea that's how Vaughn Bode died!

I see the story is now getting more interesting.

I'd wondered about that as soon as I heard the story.

You know, I still think plain old sex is fun. I sure haven't gotten bored with it yet. Is there something wrong with me? Do I just have low expectations? A spectacular orgasm isn't worth dying for.

That sux! Now he's going to be known for death by sexual misadventure instead of being that guy from Kung Fu - walking the earth.
