David Carradine found dead
Carradine was found dead in Thai hotel, no further details
http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/06/0...ine/index.html I watched Kung Fu as a teen. in my memories that series really helped open a lot of western exposure to alernate religions and philosophy. |

I believe Reuters is reporting it was a suicide, he was found hanged in his luxury hotel room. :-(

being found hanging in a closet sounds kind of hinky to me. NPR sue is not getting on that band wagon yet.

I think the details are still in flux, so no point freaking about rumors yet.
I shall miss David, and fondly remember Caine as the kind of strong and self-reliant character I'd like to be capable of being in an ideal world (or even a less-than-ideal one). |

yeah, it's looking more like that. and odd as it is, it is still preferable to the thought of him killing himself on purpose
