Tyrone was saying how Bruce Lee isn't dead, but rather frozen in some silo somewhere.

On the radio Albert says, "I see... I see.... Bruce Leigh."
Then Tyrone and the others have a conversation about Bruce Lee being frozen in a silo. Then, when they go to find them, there's a Bruce Lee movie playing at the drive in or something, and the name on the mailbox is Bruce Leigh.
