Toy Hall of Fame

A skateboard is/is not a toy

Not sure how I feel about this one. Although one of the twelve nominations, the skateboard was not one of the 2007 inductees to the National Toy Hall of Fame (Housed at Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, NY). This year’s winners are the Atari 2600 Game System, Raggedy Andy, and the Kite. Roller skates, and by extension, inline skates are already members, and so is the bicycle. Raggedy Anne was already in the Hall of Fame. Did you know the Hall used to be in Salem, Oregon? Yeah, me either. Dr. Brad, this G.I. Joe is for you!

    That’s pretty funny considering that it’s spelled Aleister. With a name like that the kid is going to have to be good with his fists.

  3. Ten-hut!

  5. I guess they don’t run spell check before they print the birth certificates.
