Sleepy, as usual. Bleh.

In part, it's because I watched 'The Crocodile Hunter' with hub. Never seen him before, just heard about him and saw endless parodies. That guy is very strange. If he wasn't ADHD when he was a kid, I will eat this monitor. I've never seen someone so happy to find cougar feces. Maybe it's more manic than ADHD... he seems so cheerful and excited. Every time he saw any animal (any at all) he had to go grab it, pick it up, remark on how it looked (usually stating how beautiful it was), chat with it, kiss on it, and then plop it back down. The show I saw, he grabbed up several varieties of rattlesnakes, a lizard, a bat, and probably a couple of other non-poisonous snakes. He was like a 4-year old in a candy store. It was pretty funny to watch, actually. He reminded me of Bob when Bob's in a really good mood.

I have listened to 'Busted Stuff' about 400 more times. I like it, yes I do.

I'd give anything to have The Croc Hunter's job. He's what I want to be when I grow up. Well, I'm probably more like Jeff Corwin, really...

Who's Jeff Corwin? I would love CH's job too, but I don't think I could do it with the same hopped-up enthusiasm that he displays.

Jeff Corwin's another nature guy on The Discovery Channel... he has a weekly show. He's more low-key than the Croc Hunter, but he still goes all over the world to catch and get video of exotic animals.

I wonder if the Croc Hunter was so exuberant before he was getting paid for doing a show (and then a movie). I guess if I got paid like he probably does and got to do something I loved, I'd be uncontrollably hyper all the time, too!

I'm actually thinking about applying for jobs with animal control where I live so I can get close-up and personal with alligators, poisonous snakes, possums, etc. I hope those guys have good health insurance!

You ought to see the Croc Hunter when the doo in question came from a reptile. AP did a whole commercial to the "beat" of him repeating "dragon poop."
