Yes. Very Sad that he died. They said it was suicide then recently an accident(?). Hmmm... either way he will be missed...when you can snatch the pebble from my hand, then you will be ready, young grasshopper.

Sad indeed. If you get a chance to read his book Endless Highway it is a chronicle of his life journey through a troubled childhood, alcohol and drug addiction, and the ups and downs of his acting career.

He was a unique actor with a special style who will be missed.

Master Po:[after easily defeating the boy in combat] Ha, ha, never assume because a man has no eyes he cannot see. Close your eyes. What do you hear?

Young Caine:I hear the water, I hear the birds.

Master Po:Do you hear your own heartbeat?

Young Caine:No.

Master Po:Do you hear the grasshopper that is at your feet?

Young Caine:[looking down and seeing the insect] Old man, how is it that you hear these things?

Master Po:Young man, how is it that you do not

So Sad. I loved watching him act. His skills were extraordinary. He'll be deeply missed. If there were two movies I enjoyed the most besides the Kung Fu shows, it would have to be the Lone Wolf movie with Chuck Norris and the Bird on a Wire with Mel Gibson Goldie Hawn.

Tenaj - He was my all time favorite actor in that genre. I watched him everytime the show came on. Whatever movies he made, I would watch them. He will be sorely missed and yes, may he rest in peace.
