the reincarnation of Mr. Rogers

I wonder if Mr. Rogers' breath smelled like dead fish? Do you suppose there is any chance that he was stricken with a split personality; alternating between sheer terror at the sight of geese and gleefully chasing them down with murder in his eyes? I used to watch his show when I was 4 but I don't really remember much about it. I certainly don't recall Mr Rogers having a canine gleam in his eye. Still, every time I look at Scout and wonder what he's doing in my life (and on my porch) I hear singing which goes something like this:

It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
It's a neighborly day in this beautywood,
A neighborly day for a beauty,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you,
I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.
So let's make the most of this beautiful day,
Since we're together, we might as well say,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?
Won't you please,
Won't you please,
Please won't you be my neighbor?

And just as I am starting to fall under his spell I hear another sound in my head. It's the sound of Larry grunting under his breath and sounding an awful lot like King Friday grumbling about the neighbors.
