geebsUgh, in my rush to get this problem resolved, I ate my lunch real quick so I could get right back on working. Now I feel like total crap. Its prolly due to a mix of what I just said and lack of sleep last night.
Owel, in other news, thunderstorms suck. We got back from trivia in time for the second showing of that Bruce Lee special on AMC that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
psyched_out mentioned was going on last night. Wow, the original concept of the movie was way cooler than what they actually released. They showed the unreleased footage in its entirety last night, starting with the nunchaku fight with Dan Inosanto. Bruce Lee was actually going through the pagoda with two other dudes, but in the released movie, they cut those guys, as well as any dialogue out. The Kareem Abdul Jabar/Bruce Lee fight was basically the same, except this time has Bruce Lee breaking open the paper windows to let light in and blinding the light sensitive Kareem Abdul Jabar character. Also, Mr. Alcindor wasn't the last opponent because he was 7 feet tall, but because unlike the masters of the other levels, he wasn't limited to a particular "style". He wasn't like a kicking specialist or a grappling specialist or a weapons specialist. It was just gravy that he also happenned to be a huge-ass dude. Anyways, the fight ended the same way. Or so it seemed, but I'll never know since the stupid thunderstorm knocked out the power. Since I was watching it on buffer on PVR, the power loss cleared the buffer and I missed the last five minutes. So I have no idea if Kareem got up after Bruce Lee put him down and there was some more fighting, or if that was the end.
