WM: Talking about how he met Steve at 14.

Talking about first time he fed a croc with Steve - they waited until Steve's parents had left and they fed a 14 foot crocodile.

"If Steve was nearby I felt I could achieve anything. He had that effect on everyone."

"I've seen Steve find the woman of his dreams."

Breaking up: "His love and dedication to his children has been inspiring."

"To teh world he was a hero. To me he was my hero. He saved my life."

Well, the info on the Christian Outreach Center is correct. Only the senior Pastors are listed, though. If it is true, that is the best news I've heard about this whole ordeal.

We picked up a three-hour videotape set a few years back for next to nothing at discount department store. Unless I've been totally deceived, Steve Irwin was exactly like he presented himself, like him or not ... no acting or hidden agenda.
