"Get me a robot arm that looks like the Terminator... but I'd rather have my arm back."

Video and news story about Devin Funck, the boy who lived ? minus one arm ? to tell the tale of his encounter with the 500-pound alligator they call Big Joe. In the video, he says that when he woke up in the hospital ? it wasn't a dream ? "I wanted to kill the alligator, but they already killed him."

On Sept. 6, he will be the guest of honor at a car show fundraiser being held at the Northshore Harbor Center in Slidell. He is going to receive Big Joe's stuffed head during the event.

"It takes my arm, I take its head, " said Devin.

I hope he gets a great Terminator arm... or series of arms (which he will need as he grows).
