http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31103217/Actor David Carradine, star of the 1970s TV series “Kung Fu” who also had a wide-ranging career in the movies, has been found dead in the Thai capital, Bangkok.
A spokesman for the U.S. Embassy, Michael Turner, confirmed the death of the 72-year-old actor. He says Carradine died either late Wednesday or early Thursday, but he could not provide further details out of consideration for his family.

I'm leaning more towards a Hemingway deal:
You go to work every day for 40 years and manage to remember your lines and blocking, even through 2 decades of a raging substance abuse issue.
And then, you just can't do it any more.

I'm betting "accomplice". They say there is no reason to believe someone else was in the room. They're lying. They're gathering evidence. He and miss fellow freaky deaky are having a lark, he cacks, she freaks, collects the money, and splits. They're already drafting the script for Law and Order: Bangkok. Be on next week. |
