Hey, Mr. Ice Cream Man, drive your van for me,
Iβm not sleepy and thereβs jimmies on my mind
Hey, Mr. Ice Cream Man, ring your bells for me,
In the jingle-jangle morning, Iβll come running to your side.

back of a red ice cream truck, with a variety of ice cream pops painted on it (strawberry crunch, drumstick, Spongebob, klondike). Caption painted in white reads "DYLAN & PETE'S"
Glad these two buried the proverbial Newport '65 hatchet to start an ice cream truck together. Hope they don't put Woody's "This Soft Serve Machine Kills Fascists" out of business.

But I'm going to use Sgt. Slamowitz and Officer Morris as names of characters in my upcoming buddy cop TV show. Slamowitz is a hotheaded rookie. Morris is a by the book veteran who's seen it all.

Street scene. "School speed limit 20 when flashing". It's flashing. "Your speed 28".
Black Audi SUV blocking the crosswalk at a red light. Peds are walking in front of it.
I'll do a shot for every driver obeying the speed limit. An hour later: stone cold sober.
OK, I'll do a shot whenever a driver stops on the stop line and not in the crosswalk.
I gotta think of a better game.
Run to the World Key Kiosk to make a video call! Is anything available anywhere? Oh well.

If Spock had just neck pinched Bones after the accidental cordrazine injection, we wouldn't have one of the greatest #StarTrek episodes over. "Hmm, the doctor seems to be delusional. I shall observe rather than intervene." #LLAP #IDIC

What's playing on the hot & cold running free Star Trek streaming service? Voyager. OK. DS9, excellent. Strange New Worlds! Get the Star Trek to the people! On all services.
Well, well, well, looks like someone is out from behind the paywall. #StarTrek Strange New Worlds is on PlutoTV, folks.

It did go through, but the noise complaints were too much. They plugged the hole and that's why it looks like that.
No, I didn't hear that from a bus driver. It was a tram conductor.
