As I sit here typing this post, I happen to be enjoying a big ol' bowl of ice cream. You're probably asking, "Why are you telling us this Antonio?" Well I'll tell you.
So the other day, I happened to go to a Bloom supermarket. It just so happened that the store was celebrating it's "birthday". They were having an all day birthday celebration which included cake, door prizes, and grab bags. Well, I finished my shopping and headed for the register to pay for my stuff. While I stood in line, an announcement came over the loudspeaker. "Attention Bloom shoppers! We have our next birthday celebration winner! The gentleman on register five! Congratulations!" I only half payed attention to the announcement. I was too busy watching the cashier ringing up my groceries. Then it occurred to me, "Which register am I standing at anyway?" Just as I looked up and notice the number five above my register, a group of employees surrounded me cheering and congratulating me. Then the manager came up and told me I had won a prize of a half-gallon of ice cream. He asked me what flavor I liked, and then went off to go get it for me. And readers, this wasn't some store brand ice cream. He brought me some Bryers. You know, the good s#!+.
Mmmmm! Mmmmmmm! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Oh, sorry! I was just enjoying my ice cream. Gotta go!

I LOVE ICE CREAM!!!!! Not frozen Yogart, Not Frozen Tofu, Not Ice Milk, Not even Lowfat Ice Cream. BUT Honest-to-God Frozen, Creamy and Deliciously Fattening ICE CREAM!!!! I know Ice Cream. I use to work at "Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor at Springfield Mall" Sirens, Bass Drum, Tamborine and all.
Man, that Ron really loves ice cream.
Congratulations! Hey - share the wealth! :)
Speaking of Farrell's... I have been working on a post about Farrell's.
Ron - I never knew you worked there.
Antonio - You left out the most important piece of information...which flavor did you select?
Jim, you're the second person whose has said that to me. To tell you the truth, I didn't think anyone really cared about the flavor. But, it looks like I was wrong.
I was so overwhelmed by the situation, that I just asked for plain ol' vanilla. I figured they wouldn't want to wait around for me to make up my mind.
