Recently, a very popular personality passed on by a chance encounter with a stingray. Steve Irwin was on every TV screen, in every household in Canada that I can remember a few years back. When I was just recently in Australia, there he was on every screen again while Dan Payne and I were going through customs.........telling us what we can and can't bring into the country. The man was as close to being a fellow stuntman as you can get, in my humble opinion......but he played with a much larger world of less predictable circumstances......the animal world. I have been extremely busy at work as of late, and the time to write this blog has dwindled into no time at all.......but......I just thought it was important to mention the late Steve Irwin and the smiles he put on so many people's faces throughout the years. Thank you for that Mr. Irwin. I never met the man, nor have I ever had a phone conversation with him. I do have great respect for what he accomplished and the knowledge he must have been walking around with in his head to accomplish it. My thoughts go out to his family and close friends.
