I got teary over Peter Brock. I grew up with dad watching motor racing, and he was Peter Perfect. I hope the Bridgestone gecko pays a tribute.
Managed to go 4 years without any dickheads commenting anonymously (I'm just not interesting enough). Not sure whether to screen or disallow anonymous...
And this makes me sadder:
His death on Monday aged 44 raises questions over the future of his enterprises. John Stainton, who produces and directs his TV and film work, says the show will go on. "He's an icon and that will be a big void now that someone will have to fill," he said yesterday.
That someone would be Irwin's eight-year-old daughter, Bindi. Stainton has already made seven of a planned 26 episodes of a documentary featuring her and said she was likely to star in her first movie by the end of next year.
"She will probably in the next four or five years eclipse the fame of her father," he said. "I said that to him only a few weeks ago and he said, 'That would be my only wish' and I have no doubt about it, she is so talented. I would imagine she's going to be as big as the Olsen twins."

As for the other - that really /is/ the saddest thing. *sigh*

I had that happen to me for the first time ever last year, and it was bizarre, and made me paranoid.
