Sweater Day

Mark today's date! The 20th of March from now on shall be known as "Sweater Day" -- to celebrate what would have been Mr. Rogers' 80th Birthday.

Mc. McFeely has a simple request: "We’re asking everyone everywhere — from Pittsburgh to Paris — to wear their favorite sweater on that day. It doesn’t have to have a zipper down the front like the one Mister Rogers wore on the program; it just has to be special to you."

First of all it's in the mid-seventies today so fuck off. And number two, I hated Mr. Rogers. So lame and boring. But he did teach me how to tell time. Sesame Street was on after his program, since I hated his show so much, I learned to tell time so I didn't have to sit through that crap to get to my furry friends. I will always remember him for that.

Nobody teaches you nothing.

I always thought he gave off a pedophile vibe.. I was more partial to Mr. Dressup, he taught me how to tie my shoes.

I learned to tie my shoes in bible school. Something about a tree in my bunny hole. Or wait, maybe that was something else.
