Inspired by Maya's recent post about Kelly's character traits, I decided to adopt his devil-may-care attitude in dealing with a personal crisis. When wounded, captured, and in imminent danger of being put to death in The Tiger, he quips, "So I made a little mistake. What are they going to do, kill us for it?" That's the kind of fearless spirit I need just now.

So thanks, Maya, for reminding us of the Kelly way.

Long live Robert Culp, Bill Cosby, and the magic that is I Spy.

And remember my dear. It is always darkest just before it goes pitch black.

True true.

B-L,

I'm so glad The Kelly Way inspired you. Kelly's "act first-think later" approach and his flippant attitude about life has motivated me, as well. I've learned I do better when I get up and go rather than just sit around and think about it. That's how I ended up in Boston- and it was the best decision ever. Of course, if Boston doesn't work out, I'll do a shoulder shrug, check my watch, and try for Plan X (or Y).

Thanks again to you, Tatia, and Becca for your great insight into Kelly's character. I'm much happier with my Kelly-esque character now, and it's nice to be reminded of one of the reasons I fell in love with this show. Long live Robert Culp, Bill Cosby, and the magic and wonderfulness that is I Spy.
