It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

I found this video on a blog for introverts, which I'll be linking to shortly...I watched Mr. Rogers Neighborhood religiously as a kid, and watching this brings it all back. Fred Rogers did more for the children of my generation than anyone else, and this just proves it.

It's a good thing they didn't call Mr. Robinson before Congress.

"Can you say 'bastard' boys and girls? I'll bet you can."

Remember when Eddie Murphy did a take-off of Mr. Rogers on Saturday Night Live? "Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood." He'd come into his housing project apartment singing, "It's one helluva day in the neighborhood, a helluva day for a neighbor. I hope to live in your neighborhood someday. Problem is, when I move in, y'all move away!"

It's hysterical. Go rent "The Best of Eddie Murphy on Saturday Night Live."
