Toboggan: Still Loving You Forever



















It's been awhile.

A lot has happened since Toboggan's last post... Michael Jackson died, Tiger Woods has fallen from grace, and- of course- Adam Lambert dropped his creepily covered 'For Your Entertainment' (sorry Adam, but you just can't pull this off). Yes, it seems as if things have been falling apart all around us- that a world without Toboggan is a dark and desolate place- but that's simply not true.

Toledo has a new Hockey team, Winter Wonderland is apparently still on, and Homage keeps producing those awesome Surf Ohio shirts (above). In fact, there's so much good news, Toboggan's Toledo offices have been seriously considering a comeback.

Let's see how much we can squeeze into one post, shall we....

I'm not sure who's involved with this, but looks like Toledo has it's own little Pop Up Shop. All the rage over in England for awhile now, I haven't seen any around these parts, so this is exciting (please correct me if I'm wrong).

The Museum has a Chihuly exhibit, a Graphic Novels exhibit, and an exhibition on children's book illustrations. We should never forget how fortunate we are to have this institution in our town- in fact Toboggan got pulled over last week and definitely tried to sell the cop a Museum membership (this is highly encouraged).

Been digging Fujiyama Mama (below), apparently Ernestine Allen was born in Illinois, but raised by her grandmother right here in Toledo (gotta love that), the song actually charted by Wanda Jackson




BGSU's annual record sale is this Friday, Dec. 11. I will be looking for the TeenWolf soundtrack (do you have any idea how hard that has been to track down?)

...and of course, the biggest news: Toledo Toboggan made a new post. Maybe we should keep our fingers crossed for tomorrow....

wow. you don't even know how excited i am about this. i've been waiting and waiting. not only is toboggan back, but drew wrote the comeback post.

however, i think it would be more appropriate if you featured a toledo t-shirt company.
