It’s strange what the brain retains. I can barely remember what I did last week (my friends don’t bother to ask me “do you remember that time” because they know I will say no) let alone the early years of my childhood. I do, however, remember an obsession with a particular show that aired on another station when I was younger. It was Romper Room. I loved it.

The life of a PBS character can be quite grueling. The social responsibilities are exhausting. With all of the partying and public appearances that have to be made, there is hardly anytime to just relax and breathe. Yesterday, I took a glimpse into a day in the life of PBS Kids “It Boy” Super Why who just happened to be in town, making stops at Buffalo Public Libraries and day care centers around WNY. I met him and a friend of his, WNED’s Pat Ragin, at a special VIP appearance the Buffalo Public Library’s downtown location.
