Mr. Rogers Seems Like a Swell Guy!

A magazine that I enjoy reading is mental_floss. They have a really interesting article on Mr. Rodgers that makes me wish I could have met him. I may sound cheesy, but he just seems like such a beautiful person. Some of my favorite things I learned about him are:

• He was vegetarian.
• He was a Presbyterian minister that when told to basically tell gays and lesbians off would instead tell the homosexual “God loves you just the way you are.”
• He was interested in everyone's lives to the point that he once invited a limo driver to come inside at the destination instead of having him wait in the car for 2 hours. He even ended up befriending him!
• He composed all the songs on his show.
• His mother knit each and every sweater he wore on the show.
