Andor's Trail

Who did you idolize when you were growing up?

For me it was Mr. Rodgers.. wont you be my neighbors IN A HEART BEAT. the stories he has

My idol was astro boy lol loved his red boots
And now as a adult I've got a astro boy tattoo lol
guess i just never grew up

Y grow up? Its fun being young. My reason for Mr. Roger is for the reason not many knew. Mr. Roger was an elite marine corp sniper HOORAW! He served in nam and the reason y he wore long sleeved sweaters was because his arms were his score board (meaning his kills). Who wouldn't want to be his neighbors lol

LOL that's an urban legend Sorrow. I have never been able to find a reliable source that says that is true. In fact I believe he was still actively recording episodes during the time he was illegibly "being a marine sniper"

But here is a fun piece of information about David Rogers, "His testimony before a lower court in favor of fair use recording of television shows to play at another time (now known as time shifting) was cited in a U.S. Supreme Court decision on the Betamax case"

It's because of Mr Rogers that we have VCRs and eventually Tivo.



He was a true hero, he campaigned for funding to help bring shows for children to the air on PBS.

My favorite idol is Billy Idol. Seriously though, Rebel Yell is a great album, and song.

Personally I'm not a big fan of Billy just not into his music I guess.
