David was a martial artist? I saw him on either Merv Griffin or Phil Donohue back during his Kung Fu days and when the host asked him about his martial art moves, David laughed that laugh of his and said "I'm not a martial artist; I fake it."
That was actually the first thought that came to my mind...I mean, just because it *says* it's the official site doesn't mean anything. Could be a fan site for all we know. *shrug*
The donations page seems really out of place on an official celebrity site, unless its for charity ("in lieu of flowers, etc.").
ETA: What CindyT said. I didn't see your response before I replied....

Stay in Drugs. Eat your School. Don't do Vegetables.
I used to call this guy BRIGHT EYES.
I can hardly wait to read the National Enquirer headlines!
Hahahaha
Nice going, 'skully!!!!!
I remember when he and Barbara Hershey, or at that time she was Barbara Seagull --were hippies and when they had their baby they ate the placenta. I remember my Mom reading it from the paper once and she was really pale the rest of the night.
Here he is singing:

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
I never needed a rope around my neck to enjoy an orgasm.
On the set of "Boxcar Bertha" David and Barbara were not simulating coitus, they were truly fucking.
Stay in Drugs. Eat your School. Don't do Vegetables.
This is so sad
Earlier this morning I was talking about him to a friend of mine about his appearance on that VH1 show where they put celebrities in a haunted place for the night.
Wow he looks beautiful here!
Yuck he and Barbara ate the Placenta... Ewe! They must have been on some good drugs
Maybe he was ill or he was worried that as he is getting up in age and if some illness should befall him, stroke etc, he didn't want to have to be a burden to anyone, maybe he decided to end it while he still had the strength , I'm much much too young to have watched kung fu but I do know him from the kill bill movies. rest in peace
I remember one of his brothers in a video with Madonna.
Can't remember his name though.
His father John was a handsome man when he was young.
His brother Keith was in Desperately Seeking Susan, and he was also in a video of a song from that movie.
My guess on what happened?---I think he wasn't alone, I think he was engaging in some kink and had a heart attack or something and the other person evaporated after that. Just my guess.
probably one of his last interviews:

They already have a bio on findagrave.com, he hasn't even had his damn funeral yet.
That's a beautiful picture of him. I loved him in "Kung Fu". I heard about it today and all I heard was "Hung himself naked in the bathroom of a nice hotel in Bangkok with the curtain cord". I didn't read through the thread and will go back and see what really happened. Sorry if this has been posted, but I love the theme song from "Kung Fu" and it's on my youtube and it so reminds me of him.
RIP David

latest from the bangkok papers - shoelace around his neck and penis:

Remember what Margaret Cho said about him and his "Kung Fu" role? "They should have named the show: hey, that dude's not Chinese!".
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]peek-a-boo!!
I enjoyed the series when it came back in the early '90s on UPN. There was a really cool line up of shows back then on UPN: the Kung Fu Show 2.0, Robin's Hoods, a show with Ricardo Montalban as an angel who watched over a husband/wife detective team, some show with Cheryl Ladd as a private detective on a tropical island, some show with Rick Springfield who was a surfing detective with his brother....I did like the Kung Fu series that aired then. I remember watching the first one but it always gave me the creeps.
No kidding! Dude didn't look remotely Asian, even though he was squinting his brains out.
I loved the show when I was little (and DC may have been my first celebrity crush), but they really should have given Bruce Lee the role. If they had, I guarantee it would be a cult classic 'til this day.
"I get my kicks above the waistline, Sunshine".
LOL, sorry that did make me chuckle a bit...I was in total shock about this, when I came into work and popped on MSN. Lots of speculation going on for sure!No kidding! Dude didn't look remotely Asian, even though he was squinting his brains out.

When life hands you tequila, make a margarita.
last month in LA:
Joplin, you never fail to make me giggle!! First, I can just hear Bruce Lee saying, "Oh good, you're here...you've got some major fuckin' 'splainin to do" And now I'm about to pee due to laughter over the Cho remark. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
And thank you for keeping me up to date on Elvis' pictures! He is soooooooooo cute!! Wait, that IS his name, isn't it?? Of COURSE it is...cuz you love the King about like I do...to pieces!
EXTRA just reported that David was having trouble making ends meet
and that he complained about have a hard time even putting food on the
table.
Boy that is sad IF IT'S TRUE?
Guess the shoelace story explains what happened to his shoes in that picture of him coming out of Office Depot.
Hedy Lamarr made loads of money when she was young and then
when she was older had her lights turned off for non-payment.
She also had to charge a sandwich at a drug store and Frank Sinatra
paid some of her bills.
It is possible to go broke after being a big star.
But I don't know if David was broke or what?
Might explain the donations wanted on his site?
