Crikey! He's gone!

Oh dear.. what a bad end to the labor day holiday to read that Steve Irwin, the famous Crocodile Hunter, has just passed away while doing a shoot for his new project.

Just as Jason mentioned in his tribute that we should all have as much fun as Steve did in our jobs, and i agreed with his brief description of Steve, in that in all his shows, you'll observed the following attributes that shine through:

Authentic
Passionate
Curious
Knowledgable

In fact.. Steve made nature shows on Discovery Channel and Animal Planet channels a must watch!

Goodbye Steve... and a reminder to myself to keep true and maintain the four attributes noted above.

I think good ol steve had one more attribute that made us both love him and think he might be crazy :

Audacity!

Here's to the ingredients that keeps us original, and makes others go "ooo..."

Tostada~
