crikey

i am deeply saddened by the passing of steve irwin, australia's famous crocodile hunter, he who made catching crocodiles seem fun and easy. he was killed by a stingray barb that stabbed his chest while filming a documentary.

Ol Crikey and his mumbo jumbo will be dearly missed, mate.

So sad knowing about this. His death was also a very unlikely occurence. Sting rays are usually good-mannered and RARELY attack humans.

I guess he had it coming. He was a croc hunter who had taunted Death all along, for crying out loud! But what's ironic is that the "method of killing" was surely unexpected. I mean, stingray? Not a croc? WTF?

But yeah, he will be missed and surely be remembered.

Anyhoo, first time visit here. Woo hoo! :-)
