My hand is red because of the way I'm holding it against the whiteboard.

Ok, so you're not a girl.

However it does appear you are a midget.

Lol, my hand does look a bit weird in that picture. I'm reaching over a desk and leaning against the whiteboard. It kinda distorted the shape of my hand and made it look stubbier than it actually is.

Hmm, my experience with Baskin Robbers has been that they are skinflints who don't put much ice cream on their ice cream cones and certainly no where near the amount of ice cream that would justify their prices.

at least you don't have to conceive and/or prepare the ice cream yourself. for a price premium.

lots of ice cream = good :D

BTW I only weigh 135 and I can't seem to get much higher than that (I bumped 140 once). I love being able to eat whatever the heck I want :D

I felt like an icecream this morning so I stopping in a Baskin Robbins...

FAIL

BR is pure sugar masquerading as icecream. Really good icecream is sweet but only just enough. It should be really creamy with not too much air or ice in it, has to have a really nice creamy smooth mouth feel. And it should taste like the ingredient it's made from. Chocolate icecream should taste like chocolate, not cocoa powder. Strawberry icecream should taste like strawberries not strawberry flavoured cough syrup. etc etc... Of the big names around here I prefer Purdies icecream though the best is usually some smaller place.

After watching that show (whatever it was) on how the Baskins and Robbins family grew up and how fat and sick they got eating their own icecream all the time, I can't really eat there. Rite-aid is a better choice for me.

BTW, Americans aren't fat. They're big boned. Get it right. Besides, as I understand it all our fat people have somehow ended up in Florida so I never really see that many.

When you're old enough to go to the ice cream store without your parents, you won't be forced to eat it all.
