    When I was a little kid, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was bar none my favorite show of all time.

    I loved the Simpsons when I grew up a little older (about 9-10) and that has been my favorite ever since.

    I still know how to draw flags looking like they are waving in the wind b/c of Commander Mark! haha!

    My sister LOVES Bob Ross as well! His voice is so soothing; I agree, it is mesmerizing. I bought her a Ross T-shirt from Target a few months ago. Too bad he passed away.
