Can you say dead. Sure you can.

A tribute to children's public television pioneer Fred Rogers will include an effort to get people everywhere to wear a sweater on what would have been his 80th birthday. I was a bit too old for Mr. Rogers ,but every once in a while while, as I was channel surfing, I would stop and watch for a minute or two. I always thought that this would be a wonderful program for younger kids. It was so charming and light. With great non threatening characters. So on his birthday, March 20th, I will be wearing a sweater in his honor. It may be a little uncomfortable in the shower, but what the heck. Can you say soggy, I know you can.



Enjoy Mr Roger in this clip. He must have been a real good sport to poke fun at himself and his program.
