It's Khaki Day

And while I didn't watch his show much and poked as much fun at that crazy Aussie as anyone, I also respected Steve Irwin greatly. I applauded his efforts to make this world a better place for some who are not too much favored in the eyes of the world, and when I found out (in the Detroit airport of all places) about his death, I was both saddened and immensely gratified that he got to go instantly while doing what he loved. Somehow, I doubt there wasn't a smile on his face, and I think maybe he wasn't so crazy after all. Here's to you, Steve Irwin. One more CRIKEY from me to you.

I don't have to work today, so my usual November 15 khaki scrubs are not in use, but I got this email years ago, and I kept it because I thought it was perfect. In reading it today, I still agree. It's perfect. Please note I didn't write it.

To all those I made wibble with my last post, I give you this:



The most famous half orphans in Oz, and the winners of Nickelodeon's Kid's Choice "Best Greenies" award this year.

Good luck to 'em, I say.

God, I didn't realize how much Robert had grown to look like his dad...
