**sigh**  childhood memories.......:-))

lmao yes jim people actually do live in toledo...and not to be rude to any people that actually live in the city......but toledo is nasty. its horrifically crime ridden and slummy. downtown area has been dead forever, its mostly old abandoned buildings. its really, really awful! The unemployment rate is sky high as is the crime rate. Im sooo glad to live about 30+ miles from it, in the WOODS =)

ps yes jamie farr is indeed from toledo (aNd lived in the ghetto, no less!) and Katie Holmes is too although she hails from a ritzy suburb, not the actual city.

I remember Farrell's!  We had one in Redford, Michigan.  Used to go there for birthday parties and such when I was a kid.  Wow does that bring back some memories.

Toledo???? People actually live in Toledo?  Only time I've been there is a few stops on the Lake Shore Limited train from Boston to Chicago, the last time with the worst hangover I've had in my entire life, which is what one gets from sitting in the bar from South station in Boston to someplace in upstate NY.  Didn't help that during a half hour stop in Albany we went to the cafe across the street for wings and shots....

Thank God I don't drink anymore..

what saved the hangover was the best burrito I ever had at a cafe at Union Station in Chicago loaded with the hottest salsa they had and drenched in tobasco sauce and a coke...felt like a million dollars after that.

Holy Toledo!

Oh...I kinda remember Farrell's the ice cream place, but I think it was New York City where I was at one...

Now...if they'd just open a starbuck's near me.
