Steve Irwin got killed by a stingray off the Great Barrier Reef.
I knew this was going to be a weird day when I had three e-mails waiting for me this morning with the subject head “crikey”.
It was pretty tough for me not to use that for the subject line.
My younger brother’s e-mail came with the not-exactly-smooth but still strangely funny “Crocodile Dundead”.
You should see the media coverage here in Australia. It’s Princess Diana all over again.
A slightly weird thing is that on my Onion desk calendar on Friday there was a photo of him and a headline that said ‘Crocodile Hunter Same Way in Bed’
it was news even in the Turkish newspapers (as opposed to the newspapers written for foreigners living in Turkey).
My brother Tony misses him already.
