TFP Column: The Gifts That Keeps On Giving

Having successfully launched its "Star" edition just days ago, the Toledo Free Press has gone back to the presses for its regular weekend edition. Toledo's massive budget deficit and the March 31 date of required balance are approaching like an oncoming freight train. 


Not surprisingly there are a couple of opinion pieces on the subject, mine included. Michael Miller has once more outdone himself again with a rather amusing take on a potential solution, with his "2010 Telethon For Toledo". I myself contributed a much humbler effort on the subject with "The Gifts That Keeps On Giving", attempting to trace this situation back to the mistakes of the previous administration. 


With the upcoming St Patrick's Day holiday fast approaching, I would also recommend to your attention this listing of all of the places that you can properly celebrate this auspicious occasion in Toledo. (I myself will be in church all day.) 


While the temperatures will be up this weekend, the rain will be falling. My recommendation would be to spend a little time working on your taxes (if you haven't already) and improving your mind with the Toledo Free Press.
