Crikey !!! I am a Wimp !

Well finally my brain is working again after feeling numb due to a 12 hr non stop watching of TV on Sunday, probably that zombie like state cause me to lose my old and "scar faced" N7610. No guys, i wasnt having a "sex education" marathon which we often suggest that we shld have after a 12 hrs soccer marathon. Honestly, watching 25 men running around, spitting everywhere and of course chasing a ball is more appealing to me. I was having a whale of a time watching Steve Irwin's marathon. Animal Planet was nice enough to dedicate a 24 hr marathon of the Croc Hunter series which unfortunately I only managed to catch 12 hrs of it.
Well i guess the whole world probably know what happened to Steve and I shall not talk more about it. Firstly I must admit, I was not a Steve Irwin groupie, even 12 hrs straight of his show I am still not. I admire the bloke, but sometimes i just tink he is a bit too much of a showman. But on the day of his death, I got the news just 6 hrs after he passed away, I sudden felt a huge emptiness in my heart, I felt lost. YES I GET EMOTIONAL AT TIMES ! I bawled my eyes out when I watched "EIGHT BELOW", I had tears in my eyes when I saw King Kong plunging down the Empire State Building. YES ! I AM A WIMP ! I must admit I always have a soft spot for animals, even for those that are digitally created. Call me a wierdo ! *shrugged* Till now I still cant explain why. It was like I had lost a friend and I never had the chance to say "bye". As for the twelve hour show, there were times where I had this huge lump in my throat. Its a huge pity that this bloke, the proudest father in the world, the bloke that goes "Crikey ! Look at that beauty !" all the damn time, the bloke that never stop talking about conservation in his shows, will never be able to watch his kids grow into his boots, never be able to sit on the swing with our dear old ah Meng again and never be able to hear a word of "Thanks" from me.
Ironically, the ray robbed the life of a person who was hell bent on protecting the welfare of its fellow species and the welfare of all the flora and fauna of the world. Talk about graditute !
Maybe God decided that we are beyond hope and decided to give an early retirement for the bloke in Khakis for he has done his very best, if not I could not think of any explaination,
Why would God take away the life of someone who was the few that was always there to protect God's very own creations....

Anyway, probably the first thing Steve would say when he goes to Heaven was "CRIKEY !!! LOOK AT THE ANGEL !!!!"

Anywayz, Thank You Very Much Mate. Have fun with Suey up there !
CROC RULES !!!

If I have to save a koala or a crocodile
or a kangaroo or a snake.
Mate, I will save it."
