New Place?
I am going to leave the blogging about last night to those who took the minutes and pictures and blog about a new place to go for ice cream. I was browsing through the "Weekend" section of the D&C and it happened to catch my eye that my old haunt Java's (nee Java Joe's) on Gibbs Street is now offering ice cream, ice cream floats and milkshakes. Apparently the ice cream comes from Purity Ice Cream in Ithaca (anyone ever had that?), and they have some um, different, flavors, like Green Tea and Ginger, along with (I hope) somewhat more familiar flavors. I am all for trying new things (though maybe not adventurous enough to try Ginger ice cream as I loathe ginger) so I thought mayhaps the TLIC gang would be up for trying a new venue when we meet again. Anyone interested??
About Us
about 
Our Mascot, Alice, may she rest in peace 
It's all Maria's fault. She loves ice cream and uses it to seduce people. And we've all been seduced. By the ice cream, not by Maria. But we've all since realized that ice cream has become an excellent compensation for our sexual frustrations. We even have our own theme song. So here's where we shall describe, in excrutiatingly sensuous detail, our ice cream escapades.
Our Mascot, Alice, may she rest in peace In memoriam:

A word about ICF
(Ice Cream Factor):
Ice Cream consumption increases with sexual frustration. The higher the ICF, the more ice cream consumed. 'Nuff said.
