   Kinda reminds me of the ’70’s, when everybody was a kung fu fighting…and all them cats were fast as lightning to wear black-colored belts so they could show off the latest martial arts moves they learned watching the movie screens…and knock themselves out silly trying them Bruce Lee moves with the nunchakus…those were the days….
