The Captain Has left Us

Yes, I am afraid that it is true. Bob Keeshan, better known as "Captain Kangaroo," has died at age 76.

I remember getting up very early on Saturday mornings to watch Captain Kangaroo - back when there was good television programming for children. For those who did not get the privilege of watching this special program - it was like Mr. Rogers but somewhat more hyper and adventurous.

We need you Mr. Green Jeans...
