    At least it’s SOFT serve ice cream which makes it a little less worrisome ;-)

    If you notice, Jeff was very quiet when he did this post… without his usual comments….which I think is a first. Could it be that sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.

    Do kids visit this site? Because I need to know before I start commenting. Really…someone tell me soon or I may stroke out from the giggles.

    Now we understnd the mindset of many of the people who frequent this site, :>) Maybe Jeff can work on another type of advertiser for the future.

    Now I have a better understanding of Tuesday’s posts from Josh…why people from St. John drink so much… they’re afraid (and rightfully so) of the ice cream man…..

    I used to always wonder about Mr. Dick ice cream.

    After hurricane Marilyn, I lived 2 houses from Mr. Dick. He gave away ice cream for free for a few days after because he could not leave home to sell in the night because of a nightfall curfew. He did have a humongous generator so it was not because they would melt. After loosing your roof, Ice Cream never tasted better.

    was this picture taken during the St. John Festival ?

    We’ve had our laugh, but VIBizOnline.com’s comment above makes me think that there may be a much more interesting story here. Maybe search out the whole story rather than just the punch line?

    LMAO! Don’t you just wonder sometimes what people are thinking when they name their businesses?
