It's an interesting read, though, and the authors devotion shines through.<br /><br />@ Harry: Seagal rubbed a lot of folks the wrong way during his career, much like Van Damme. There was a great story where he was challenged by a dirty dozen of martial arts champions because of his attitude at the time. I have the issue of the martial arts mag that features the article. He was also accused, or charged with beating his ex wife, Kelly LeBrock, the girl from WEIRD SCIENCE. Jaime Pressly was apparently molested by him while shooting TICKER (not counting the sexual harassment suit), he's an animal rights activist, yet on his reality cop show, he came under fire for the death of a puppy, etc, etc... Thanks, Harry, for thinking of me. It may be a while before I can participate on this one, lol.<br /><br />@ Kev D: You're quite welcome, sir! Hope you enjoy the book. I'm surprised there's no similar book on Norris outside of his autobiography.venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467807781586384838.post-29203912678051850242012-04-15T12:19:01.734-07:002012-04-15T12:19:01.734-07:00Thanks for making me aware of this book.

True Justice, man. There's some stupid shit going on in that one. For example, they need a Mandarin interpreter and when the interpreter starts speaking, it's Cantonese. I wonder if Ric Meyers is somehow involved....Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06770362451323752334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467807781586384838.post-88843642156608088562012-04-11T14:36:47.851-07:002012-04-11T14:36:47.851-07:00LOL.

I am assuming the TRUE JUSTICE series isn't of the "reality" level of his LAWMAN show?<br /><br />I was actually in Borders books about a year and a half ago reading the first edition of this book and it took me several minutes before I said to myself, "What am I doing?" <br /><br />I'm not really a Seagal fan, but it's a good read, though. My faves of his are MARKED FOR DEATH and OUT TO LUNCH... I mean OUT FOR JUSTICE.venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467807781586384838.post-20071549581447811112012-04-11T14:31:56.021-07:002012-04-11T14:31:56.021-07:00I'm actually watching the first episode of his...I'm actually watching the first episode of his series True Justice.
