isn't the show on in re-runs where you are?
Do you remember the character Donkey Hodie? (He lived at Someplace Else
with Harriet Elizabeth Cow). Being on this board is my treat! Fred deserves
the kudos, but I'm happy to receive them.
: : THANK YOU!
: : Every time I've watched Dogma I've wondered why your face was so
familiar. In the habit you looked a bit like the gal from
: : Bedazzled (the good one, with Cook & Moore) but that wasn't it! Then
whilst perusing the board I find out you were on my
: : most loved childhood show! It was you who introduced me to opera
(though Chuck Jones was to add to that later).
: : The easygoing style of the neighborhood, and the way you all handled
issues which really matter to kids in an up-front and
: : serious manner totally captured me from the start...according to my mom
I used to respond out loud to some of Mr. Rogers'
: : questions.
: Even before I knew what was going on, I was a fan of Mr. Rogers. I think
that the fact that he never patronized kids was the key to his success. The
show will be missed, but I have a feeling my kids will grow up on the show
as well...even if I have to track down old recorded tapes in order to do
so. He sends such a positive message, and I worry that that may be hard to
find with the current rising of shows like Power Rangers and Pokemon.
: : Anywho, I just wanted to say a heartfelt and hearty thank you - and
keep up the good work in films!
: I, too, would like to thank you, if you're reading this message. I think
that Mr. Roger's Neighborhood was one of the major factors that lead to my
strong moral beliefs, along with growing up in a loving home which I
believe is the most important factor.
: I would also like to thank you for taking the time out of your schedule
to post on this board often enough to answer any questions people may have
for you.

: Aw, c'mon
