I'm curious what you guys think about "Crocodile" Dundee and that guy who always sneaks up to animals on TV... I think its the Animal Planet show. Do you guys find that guy as annoying as I do, or is he some kind of celebrity? (I'm talking about the guy who is doing that ad campaign for mailing that gets bit by a snake).charm IP: Logged |

Paul Hogan aka 'Mick Dundee' is alright - he should have left it at just the one 'Crocodile Dundee' movie though.I used to like 'The Paul Hogan Show' which ran in the mid '70s and early '80s - lots of laughs. I think I know the other bloke ya talking about but can't remember his name - no doubt about it though, he's an absolute wanker!  Cheers, AGAS 5 IP: Logged |

Spanky here... Crocodile hunter is the show. At least thats what its called in Canada. That show rocks, yeah he is a little wacky. We get a kick out of how excited he gets and try to emulate his speech and accent. CrIcky. Hmmm that doesnt' look right but ya get it. LOL IP: Logged |

Good old Major Les Higgens (SP?)I used to know a bloke back in the late '80s that worked for him back when he did a bush tucker study for the Army. Reckons he's a funny bloke in real life too - as long as ya didn't upset him  IP: Logged |

Argon?? I liked the song too, but I found it terribly depressing!!!John McDermott does a very nice (imo) job singing it, and other wwi/wwii songs on one of his cds. A favourite of mine around November 11th. Werner

There was a great movie called, I think, "On The Beach" about the end of the world. It seems Aussie land was the last place left but would die soon as a cloud of radioactivity was coming. Althrough the movie they used that tune for great effect. If you have never seen this classic go get it.------------------ Hawk Forum manager and bar keep http://rcwarbirds.com/ IP: Logged |

The funniest thing Steve Irwin has done lately is the Fed Ex commercial. Anyone else seen it?IP: Logged |
