In reply to johndej :
I'm in outside sales traveling close to seven states and when I'm in a hotel in Des Moines or Appleton I feel like John Candy in that planes, trains movie.
Like....is this all there is to life? Selling hoses to distributors in Fort Wayne?

Yup. Fred Rogers wrote pretty much all of the music on his show himself. Most of it was fairly complex jazz. He believed strongly that children were capable of appreciating complex music, and it shouldn't be dumbed down.
Also the theme song was improvised live and different EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

Fred Rogers. Charles Cornell. Two amazing people.
I'm not posting a meme, because I have nothing more to add.

Sometimes I think about how much was lost in the world with the death of Fred Rogers and it makes me cry. Then I think about how brighter the world is that he was ever in it to begin with, and that makes me cry.
Meme relevant to recent discussion here. Side note: I don't think any of these are the worst state or even in the top 3.
