This isn't a gossip site, so why am I reporting this? Well I associate David Carradine with chicken wings. I know it sounds weird, but here it goes.
When I was in Middle School and early High School, every so often I was lucky on a Friday night that my parents would be going out. In the time before I could drive, I would ride my bike into town (I lived in my small town's suburbia, on the other side of a valley that separates the two) to the video store, rent a few movies and come home. There was only one genre I would rent on these nights: Kung Fu movies.
Mostly Bruce Lee, but at the time I was also in awe of Kung Fu. I absolutely loved the contemporary TV show Kung Fu: The Legend Continues, but only vagely aware of the original show or movie. So renting old episodes of Kung Fu, or even Kung Fu: The Movie was a special treat to get my martial arts fix and learn some back story.
But to go along with the movies I always ordered a pizza and wings combo from Little Caesars. A pizza just for me, and hot wings that while tiny, were tasty. The whole event of wings, pizza and Kung Fu is totally a part of my youth and I will never forget the smells, the tastes, and the fights.

So thanks you Mr Carradine for the years of entertainment. RIP.

Crazy, eh?
And a very strange way to die . . .
You know it wasn't murder....he would have Kung Fu'd them!
Have you ever seen the movie, Ong Bak - Thai Warrior? Great cheezy martial arts flick!
I couldn't wait to read why he reminded you of chicken wings!
