Man who catch fly with chopstick accomplish anything.

LOS ANGELES Nov 25, 2005 — Actor Pat Morita, whose portrayal of the wise and dry-witted Mr. Miyagi in "The Karate Kid" earned him an Oscar nomination, has died. He was 73.

FULLY STORY

As many people know, Pat Morita holds a special place in my heart. My all time favorite movie is The Karate Kid and one of my all time favorite TV shows is Happy Days. He appeared on both.

RIP.

Did he also backup vocals with Firehouse for "I finally found the love of a lifetime." Now that I am thinking about it more, was that really the right song to choose, I mean the lyrics read:

"With every kiss our love is like brand-new, and every star up in the sky was made for me and you." Who would've thought.

If I had just been invited to the old shul one time...

I was always offended by the whole "Wax On, Whacks Off" thing, myself.

Feel free to delete this comment. I just thought shneur would like it.
