I have searched high and low and can find no images of the tiger and
dragon that kwai chang caine (david Carradine) had branded on his
forearms in the opening sequence of the KUNG FU television series. I
wanted to have them tattooed on my forearms. I dont know what style
dragon and tiger they are, oriental, chinese, WHAT?
If any one could assist me by sending a pic or a url where they could
be viewed i would greatly appreciate it. Thanx and Happy holidays

Thanks for the reply?

Well, did you see the rotating image on the GeoCities page? The
GeoCities link that was INCLUDED IN the reply that was offered to your
first request for the tiger and dragon designs?

http://www.geocities.com/kungfu_alc/

S E E T H E ~*R O T A T I N G I M A G E*~!!!!!!

And how about this one?

http://chulak.tripod.com/dragontiger.jpg

Again, did you visit the links that were provided?

Not especially trying to be a smartass or mister grumpy pants, but
those images - though not the best - would give a tattoo artist a
clearer picture of what you'd like tattooed than "Uh, it's a dragon
and a tiger from this, like, TV show."

Sincerely,
Mr. SmartassGrumpyPants

P.S. NO!

P.P.S. Hans, good on you for finding those links. I tried, but Google
denied my every search string!

Hey Mr. SmartassGrumpyPants, how's it going?

I can't believe someone else was able to out-google you, the google gawd.

Good. Happy New Year to you, Aeth!

I know. And it totally pissed me off.

IMMA GET YOU, HANS!!! :o)

But I'm not a google gawd. More of a Google fan or, yeah, Google dork.
Still, I was seriously Googling like crazy. To no avail, however.

*sigh*

I googled in images on " kwai chang caine" and "David Carradine".
Did not bother to look any further when I found these 2.
BTW : don't expect everybody to know how Usenet/Internet?Google works...
*snicker*

Later, mr. SmartassGrumpyPants !

Indeed I was. AND THANKS FOR RUBBING IT IN! :o)

Suddenly Google hates my guts. It's a wicked world we live in.

But it's offset by fantastic results such as your laser tattoo removal
adventure (read about recently and elsewhere in this very ng).

Wonderful news.

Thanks !
As we speak, I'm trying to get a grip on some HP Photo Mangement
software that should enable me to make an automatic slide show...
Should be far more easy then posting a number of URL's to different
pics...

Later !
