I Love You Mr. Miyagi

I'm 27, he's 16.

He's Italian, I'm not.

He's not trying to lose weight; he's just trying to beat Johnny in the big fight.

He's got a girlfriend from the other side of the tracks. I have a husband...and three kids.

But I swear- every time I watch this I AM DANIEL LARUSSO.

(fyi: it's about 5 minutes long)


(For those of you not here yesterday and wondering about the random Karate Kid clip It's video week on Sister Skinny)

The hubs and I just caught a few minutes of that the other day but we watched the sand the floor, paint the fence, wax the car bit.

Wax on, wax off, wax on, wax off!

That Mr. Miyagi has one big brain on him! Danielsan is one lucky kid!

I love that movie! I swear my hula instructor reminds me of a female Mr. Miyagi. She totally sounds like him and she's little like him too. Instead of "sand a floor" she says "look bent elbo side." Cracks me up every time!

Man! Hate to be pedantic about the whole thing- but you know ralph macchio had the whole man-child thing going for him, so he was actually 23 when starring in Karate Kid, so YOU, my friend, are closer to Danny than you actually realize! (PS- this is my 1st (random) comment but I've been reading your site for months!)
