I married a divorced woman with two young boys. Stepsons are a project that takes trial and lots and lots of errors. No matter what tactic I tried to bond with them, they just weren't going to accept me . Then one rainy Washington State day, I was channel surfing in the front room all by myself and stumbled upon a Hong Kong Karate movie marathon. Now, I happened to have been raised on these campy 70s films, so I was in Nirvana. I guess the boys could hear all the swag banter and highflying kung fu action in their room and suddenly there we were all absorbed in a day of Sammo Hung and Jackie Chang. It was the one common denominator that brought us together.
