G'bbye mates...






Dear TomHa,
And so, it had been a week of mourning, perhaps more. The Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, had died in a freakish accident after having his chest pierced by the barbed tail of a sting ray while shooting an underwater documentary in the Great Barrier Reef. What a way to die dude, you survived taipans, cobras, crocs and yet you did not survive the sting ray, a supposedly gentle creature. You had been a good man, helping those people in less developed countries to catch snakes and stuffs, your shows are really funny and I learnt a lot. Thanks!

My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine.....Planets
And so, Pluto is relegated into a dwarf planet in a recent astronomer's meeting or something like that. Somehow, I am feeling sad. Sad that the Why did Mickey go into space joke would make a lesser imapact than before and as Newsweek aptly puts it, the ommission of Pluto would not upset the school children now, but those of us who had been brought up to the notion of the nine planets.



2 matters of little impact on my lives, 2 'Crikey' ways to fade into oblivion....
RIP dudezz...
