(Read in a Clint Eastwood voice) It was a dark and stormy night. I ducked into a doorway to seek shelter from the rain, unaware of the fate that lie before me. As I pushed through the door and shook the rain from my clothes I saw The Kid, standing behind the counter, his ice cream hat askew as it rested above his furrowed brow.

Read moreFood and all was fine, though nobody had a clue what was going on besides one young man. The young lady that took care of me was EXTREMELY rude off the bat, she got my order wrong ( no problem it’s ice cream who cares) but then used the wrong bowl for my icecream and with an attitude gave me the right bowl when I asked.
