    grasshopper

    Kwai Chang Caine - I seek not to know all the answers, but to understand the questions.

    Master Poe - Where does your pebble walk to Grasshopper (KCC had thrown a pebble in a pond of water)

    Young KCC - It walks, its journey is to nowhere.

    Poe - Each journey begins and also ends.

    Young KCC - Then the ending is the bottom of the pool.

    Poe - Does not the pebble, entering the water, begin fresh journeys?

    Young KCC - It seams unceasing.

    Poe - Such is the journey through life. It begins. It ends. Yet, fresh journeys go forth.

    Young KCC - Then the roots I have are me. And I am they.

    Poe - Grasshopper, seek first to know your own journeys beginning and end. Seek then the other journeys of which you are a close part. But in this seeking, know patience. Wear that travelers cloak, which shelters and permits you to endure. The praying mantis teaches us speed and patience. And from the tiger we learn tenacity
    and power. And from the dragon we learn to ride the wind on our XS1100's.

      You must have watched a lot of Kun Fu in your day.

          grasshopper

          one of my favorites...

          I kind of forgot about it until TopcatGR58 called me "grasshopper" after helping me once again with a question about my bike.

          I feel like "grasshopper" just soaking up all this knowledge from all of you "Master Poes" out there!!!

          anyone else a fan?

              Never missed it

              I tried to catch it everytime it was on and even in re-runs. I always wondered what that show would have been like if Bruce Lee had got the part. He was in the running for the lead role but the producers opted for someone not so chinese looking and besides David Carradine came from a movie mogul family.

                  The pace would have tripled if Lee had been the lead. He sure can kick.
