wow didnt believe it at first but its on all the news sites...wish it wasnt true:sad:

 

[gradygirl]

Well, damn. That just totally ruined my day. I loved Steve, even dressing up as him one Halloween, which is how I received the nickname of Steve from a number of my friends. Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan...............

And what a way to go, a sting ray barb through the heart. I'm sure the venom didn't help at all...

Yea, im talking about this with my friend now. I can't believe he's gone. It really sucks, I used to love watching the guy, he was amazing and always full of energy.

I liked Steve. The man had a true passion for what he did, and lived life to the fullest. He died far too soon, but I think he, more than any other person, realized the risks of his job.

For the record, Mel Gibson is an American, not an Australian. He was born in New York...in Peekskill, in fact, the same place where his father was born. His mother was born in Australia, and the family did live there (moving there after Mel was born), but the fact remains that he is American.

 

[ffemt8978]

I stand corrected...not that I'm that much of a Mel Gibson fan.
