Transitions: Dave Dedrick (aka Captain 11)

I'm guessing that most of the people on Pixie's won't know this name, but when I was growing, Captain 11 was the host of a local afternoon kid's show that I'd watch after school. The show ran from March 7, 1955 to December 27, 1996 (and talking with my mom, she even remembers watching him) on KELO TV out of Sioux Falls. (I even got lucky enough to meet Captain 11 at a local mall where he was having a meet and greet with all the local kids, and my mom has a picture of my brother getting his shoes tied by Captain 11, though this was many many years ago).

RIP Captain 11

"One man in each century is given the power to control time. The man chosen to receive this power is carefully selected. He must be kind. He must be fair. He must be brave. You have fulfilled these requirements; and, we of the Outer Galaxies designate to you the wisdom of Solomon and the strength of Atlas. You are Captain 11!" (from the beginning of each of his episodes)

I did not know of him but I think people who give kids good feelings are some of the coolest people in the world. Awesome story.

The child entertainers who don't fall down the Peewee Herman trap are pure gold.
