Woke up from my nap this afternoon. When I turned on my television Crocodile Hunter was recording instead of my regular show on this television. Left it on in the background and came on here. Saw the ping for this thread, then the commercial for the memorial came on. LOL!

Thanks for the ping. I already planned the evening around it. I'm glad there is a live thread. This is going to be a tough one, but I wouldn't miss it.

I will be watching this live on Australian television - if people would like, I can give a running commentary of what is happening.

I'm recording and will capture images when complete.

Thanks. Is it on any radio station?

Bumping for Steve.

Steve will be missed here.

May he rest in peace.

I wish my son would have felt more like Steve Irwin while saving the baby bird he did two and a half years ago. Instead he said he felt like Steve Irwin when he was poking in the grass around a structure in our grass and came across a brown recluse that crawled onto the stick he was using. After about 30 seconds of admiring it he threw it back.

It is going to be very difficult for me to watch, but I feel like I have to "be" there.

What a charming story; it brought a tear to my eye.

I received this duplicate of an email from a pastor in Queensland this past week and I have no reason to think that it is anything but legitimate:




"I want to inform Creation Ministries International, that Steve Irwin became a born again Christian two and a half weeks ago at the Kings Church AOG Buderim, Queensland Australia, going forward publicly before the congregation to ask Christ to become his Lord and Saviour.

Many of us will now spend eternity with him. I am sure Terri is comforted as a Christian in the fact that she will be with Jesus and also Steve again for eternity. Steve declared the day before he died that he was the happiest he had ever been in his whole life."

It has begun

Same here. My family has had nothing but admiration and respect for Steve and his family. My heart just breaks for them. But it is a great loss for the rest of us who loved him, too. We will miss him very much.

That's interesting. When his son was born, they had some Buddhist nuns do some sort of "blessing" on him, and I wasn't comfortable about it at all. I saw a rerun of that the other night.
