You have to check out the Cobra Kai myspace page. I came across this a couple years ago, it's awesome. Look at the top friends list, go to their profiles. It's hilarious.

Favorite weird lines that NO high school kid would ever say:
"Ya think she sprained her wrist doing her nails?"
"It must be 'take your worm for a walk' week!"- or. "take a right, check it out!"SteveJobs

Loved the movie so much that I now teach karate, and my son is also a fan. My first name is Daniel, so you can guess my nickname back in the day.

What are your favorite scenes? I like them all but I love the first day of school on the soccer field with cruel summer playing.

Is there a problem, Mr. Lawerence?
Before I learned of the deleted scene my friend and I thought that Lorraine made up the Rocket Computers job as an excuse to move out of NJ. I still don't know the complete back story... What about Daniel's dad? What prompted Lorraine to move? I mean, New Jersey sucks but is there a reason why she needed to move out to LA other than the opportunity to work for Rocket Computers?
- what does the deleted scene actually say? Does she really say a "job in IT?"mg33

INTERIOR LARUSSO APARTMENT -DAY
DANIEL practices his smile again. It isn't easy. He doesn't have much to smile about as he thinks over the events of the last two days. But his mother is determined to make their new home succeed. He doesn't want to be the one to ruin it for her. Maybe she is right, he thinks, wryly. Maybe the best thing about this Garden of Eden is that swimming pool. The front door opens.LUCILLE enters hurriedly. DANIEL pastes the well-practiced smile on his face and greets his mother easily.
LUCILLE : "Hi, Hon! How's the eye?"
DANIEL: "Okay. What's the rush?"
LUCILLE: "I got a job!"
DANIEL: "Yeah, I know. Rocket Computers. Flight to the Future!"
LUCILLE "'Crashed in the Present' is more like it. The company went bankrupt last Friday. Can you believe it? Isn't that my luck?"
DANIEL: "So, we're going home?"
LUCILLE: "Honey, we are home. This is it."
LUCILLE walks into her bedroom, then comes back out again.
LUCILLE: "Seen my black shoes?"
DANIEL reaches under the couch, finds them, and hands them to her.
DANIEL: "So, what's this job?"
LUCILLE: "It's just fantastic, honey. Listen to this story. I walked out of the former Rocket Computer offices, feeling pretty low - as you can imagine - and a woman comes flying out of this restaurant, The Orient Express - isn't that cute? - yelling about how she's going to quit. Right behind her, a guy is yelling, 'You can't quit. You're fired!' It's one minute to noon, people are coming in for lunch, and I'm the Number One applicant. I got the job. What a story, huh?"
DANIEL finds it hard to hide his disappointment.
DANIEL: "So after going to school - all those night classes about computers - you're going to be a waitress?"
LUCILLE: "Hostess, if you please."
DANIEL: "Big difference."
LUCILLE: "Yes, Daniel, there is. But it's only temporary anyway. It'll feed us until something better comes along."
DANIEL changes the subject. He does have some good news, after all...
DANIEL: "I started driver's Ed at school. I got my learner's permit."
LUCILLE(distracted): "That's nice"
LUCILLE holds up a pair of earrings to her lobes.
DANIEL: "Sure. Listen, if I get enough practice in, I can get my license on my birthday."
LUCILLE: "How do I look?"
DANIEL pastes the smile back on his face. This time, however, the insincerity shows
DANIEL(flatly): "Great"
LUCILLE: "Hon, there's stuff in the fridge for dinner. See you later."
LUCILLE hurriedly pecks DANIEL on the cheek and dashes out the door. DANIEL retreats to the corner of the sofa and his not-so-happy thoughts about the Garden of Eden. The door opens again. LUCILLE sticks her head in..
LUCILLE: "How's Friday afternoon?"
DANIEL: "For what?"
LUCILLE: "Driving lessons."
DANIEL smiles at his mother and then watches her leave. He then takes out his karate book and starts practicing...
