Crocodile Hunter Dead!
Oh yeah, I forgot. I already knew that. Have been sickened by the rediculous [sic] outpourings of emotion. It's like Diana all over again. Only this chap probably will be missed for legitimate reasons. Well, OK. Conservation vs Landmines. 6 of one etc. At least the nation going nuts is miles away this time. I found out about his death after flying back from Monaco a couple of weeks ago. Got off the plane (having got up at 3am to be driven to the airport) and as at 8:30am I stumbled drooling and witless towards baggage claim, I glanced across at a massive plasma TV and my disembodied mind was given a smackdown by the scrolling headline. Thank you, Norm MacDonald. You've made a confused man very happy. Actually, pretty much anything that reduces John Stewart to fear and laughter works for me. | ||
