Story. (http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/06/04/obit.david.carradine/index.html)  In a closet.  Looks like suicide.  Was he suffering from some degenerative ailment?  Another icon gone.  Shit.

All I really know him from is Kill Bill.  I know his role in that movie was only because of some kung fu show he used to be on in the 70's.

I watched Kung Fu in its day.  He was also in Cannonball Run, I think.  Never great movie roles until Kill Bill.  He was not a great actor, but more like a perennial part of the Hollywood landscape.

Damn, that sucks. That just kind of came out of left field.

I thought he was kind of a cool dude. I liked him in most of the stuff he was in, all his cameos and such.

Well, if he was hanging, and it wasn’t suicide, and he wasn’t in Mike Tysons playroom with it’s tentacle-like treadmill chords, and he wasn’t fighting Bruce Willis on a stairwell, that pretty much leaves jacking off.  At best.  At worst he was with some whores.  Although that sounds pretty cool too.  His penis died while exotic ladies strung him up with ropes.  His penis was like Indiana Jones.

Um . . . he's still dead.  But I guess if you can ignore that, this is funny.  Sort of.

You just reminded me of George Carlin. Another departed great icon.

No matter how you look at this -- suicide, accidental death, foul play, whatever -- still sucks.
RIP, Carradine.
