To hell with "all grown up". It’s hotter than the storeroom in hell here, today. Grab your purse! I’ll meet you at the curb with a fistful of quarters we were saving for the washing machines, and I’ll buy you your choice of missiles! I want a Toasted Almond bar! It’s summer, and we’re allowed to act the fools! C’mon…I’ll race ya! JEF. Clean for 6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days, 5 hours, 8 minutes My God; I haven’t smoked 10,016 cigarettes!

I liked the "missles" best. And don’t anybody *dare* try to make something obscene out of that. I just liked the flavor.

Heck, he’s *your* boyfriend, Diane, you make him toe the line. mm (responsible only for myself) m — "I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is; I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat."

OOOOH, HAHAHAHA! Perfect! Absolutely perfect! Change the logo, and that was it exactly! Now, imagine a grubby 9 year old, standing at the edge of the pavement and peering into the middle distance on a hot summer afternoon, as the mirage-like waves of heat come rippling up from the pavement. He’s squinting, shading his eyes with the fingers of one hand, while the other is clutching a few sweaty coins… Off in the distance he can barely make out a slight disturbance in the pattern of the heat ripples…could it be…? Is that a rhythmic jingling of bells…? ITS IS! IT’S THE ICE CREAM TRUCK! I’d buy the largest, coldest thing I could get, jam it into my mouth as fast as humanly possible, and have one of those blinding headaches one gets from too much icy goodness all at once. That was my payoff for standing out there for an hour, waiting for that damned truck. And I did it every day of the summer…. Thank God I have web pages to fritter away my time on, now. Thanks again; you’re a sweetheart! JEF. Clean for 6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days, 4 hours, 27 minutes My God; I haven’t smoked 10,014 cigarettes! I’ve saved $1,627.28 for more esoteric uses.

I was just in Pennsylvania three weeks ago, and am going back in the summer. Can’t wait. But, shhh, – careful with the s word (stuff). I am a big collector of stuff. My husband gets nervous when he hears it. Liz

I liked the "missles" best. And don’t anybody *dare* try to make something obscene out of that. I just liked the flavor. It’s a sweet innocent childhood memory. <g> We have ice cream trucks where I live now, and every time I hear the music I get an urge to grab my purse and run outside. I don’t, of course, I’m all grown up now. <sigh> Diane M. 4M+/10M+ * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet’s Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet – Free!

Heck, he’s *your* boyfriend, Diane, you make him toe the line. mm (responsible only for myself) m — "I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is; I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat."

To hell with "all grown up". It’s hotter than the storeroom in hell here, today. Grab your purse! I’ll meet you at the curb with a fistful of quarters we were saving for the washing machines, and I’ll buy you your choice of missiles! I want a Toasted Almond bar! It’s summer, and we’re allowed to act the fools! C’mon…I’ll race ya! JEF. Clean for 6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days, 5 hours, 8 minutes My God; I haven’t smoked 10,016 cigarettes!
