I know it was a tragic thing to happen and I loved that man too but this was going to happen sooner rather than later.

My sister sent me this by text the other day

I can't believe Steve Irwin went swimming without wearing any suncream. Everybody knows that it protects you from harmful rays.

Thanks

oh dear thats a bad one [groan]

Thanks

That's ray-ly bad.

Sorry, couldn't help it!

Steve was a bit of a joker himself, so maybe wouldn't be too offended. It's kind of soon though isn't it.

Thanks

I got an email on the day he died

it had a picture of a bbc news studio with them interviewing Brains from Thunderbirds .. and a subtitle saying "Stingray denies involvement"

Thanks

I got one yesterday too. Think its really bad taste but here you are!!
Steve Irwin was interviewed last week and asked about his fave tv programmes as a child. He said he loved thunderbirds but Stingray would always hold a special place in his heart!

Thanks

LieselVonTrapp · 06/09/2006 12:36

Yeah I do

Thanks

charliecat · 06/09/2006 12:36

Steve Irwin got to the pearly gates and god said "that will be £100 to get in"
"Fuck Off" Steve says, ive already been stung once today.

Thanks

This is really, really offensive, folks. How do you know his wife isn't reading this? Sick.

Thanks

geekgirrl - top site! Very funny, and the Steve Irwin one was sensitive as well as amusing!
