As I was walking to my car to leave for work today, an ice cream truck was driving down my street.  I found it odd that it was not playing music.  Usually, you can hear the sounds of "Little Brown Jug", "Turkey in the Straw", "Pop! Goes the Weasel", or "The Entertainer" (among others) when … Continue reading Summer Memory – The Good Humor Man →
