Moment of Silence ( Sept 5)

Yes... I forgot to say... we shall now commence a moment of silence... for Steve Irwin.. the crocodile hunter. ( Honestly I haven't watched his programs at all.. but somehow I think he's owed this at least)

Steve Irwin : 22 February 1962 – 4 September 2006

Killed by a stingray while filming yet another wildlife documentary...

Now we commence...

Ok. That should count as a moment. Anyone timed that?
Never mind... the time is not relevant. It's the thought that counts..

Well that just goes to show that no matter how experienced we are with danger, it seems it will find some way to get to us... though of course he didn't die with a crocodile, that would be a joke for the crocodile hunter. A sad one, yes, but a great joke nonetheless.
No more souvenirs for him, no more " Crikey, that's a big one!" . Just a very long stay at the big croc swamp in the sky. G'bye, mate.

Sigh.

Fried stingray anyone?
