Crocodile Hunter Dies

I think that I was so sad for his family. My heart broke for them. I think he was a great role model and human. I think that is what this world needed more of. I think that is what people are missing.

No worries Tink! Not everyone gets caught up with celebrities and its interesting who feels "connected" with particular ones. I had a friend that I casually mentioned that Gene Siskell was dead (he was a big movie critic out of Chicago) and she was furious at me for how casually I told her! I had no idea she felt so connected to him.

We just don't know who's gonna be a trigger or why. Its a good lesson in empathy.

Um, yeah, it's surprising how attached we are to celebrities...

Steve was one dope dude, it trely is sad that he died. To think he has a family with young children now left with out a father.

awww I know. He was always such fun to watch. I feel so bad for his poor family, we need to pray for him and his family.

For some reason i always thought he would have a) one of those ironic deaths ex: work years with deadly animals and die of something common or b) get caught off guard by a crock or snake.
When I heard he died I was in shock.

I know, I was always surprised he was still alive, yet was very shocked to hear he died.

I thought he had retired and was just running a zoo or something like that somewhere.
