     (...) I learned english with him (at the age of three, not now :) and half a year ago, when I moved back to the US, I saw him again. Bliss! My favorite part (and still is, I guess) was the little trolley/train driving around... (My mom thinks that (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
    
         Re: Mr Rogers —Matthew Wilkins
      When I was a little kid, Mr. Rogers was the only person other than my Mom who bolstered my self-esteem. That affected me deeply. -Cheese (...) much (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

      (...) I always enjoyed the trolley. Model Railroader magazine once had a short article. The opening scene where the neighborhood is shown was shot using a model town built in HO scale. But I would probably trace my love of trains to riding into (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

      (...) LOL! The first thing that popped into my head: "Yech, you'll get warts." "No no, that's just a myth." "Yeah, but she's my 'myth'" "No, MYTH MYTH!" "Yeth?" Can you tell I'm a muppet fan? <grin> James (URL) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

      (...) I've been working on Barbara with this gag. She'll never watch the Muppet Movie (so she says), but I've gotten her to respond to "MYTH! HYTH!" very well. :-, I think I'll start working on "Gone with the Schwinn" next... We'll see how long (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

          Re: Mr Rogers —James Brown
      (...) The muppet movie is one of my all-time favorites. Lots of good gags. "Turn left at the fork in the road." "They don't look like Presbyterians to me." And the classic: "Jack not name, Jack JOB!" :) James (URL) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
