i have happy childhood memories of my dog-like hearing picking up the sound, enciting me to give chase around the neighborhood. i would spend over half an hour running around the neighboorhood looking for the damn things. xD

as it is, the guy said we got our excercise for the week, because by the time i caught up with the truck my chest was burning and i could barely breathe.

BUT IT WAS WORTH IT

I never had the ice cream truck. Closest thing to it was the UPS guy.
What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's an oyster with two figures of your favorite Touhou characters. Look again, the figures are now vials of the Hourai Elixir. Anything is possible when your waifu smells like Old World and not a man. I'm a frog.

Me either, Cockle. As a kid, I thought ice cream trucks where like milkmen; they only existed in the '50s :\

The ice cream truck used to come through my neighborhood when I lived in FL... though it was pretty sporadic/random.

The only time I've encountered an ice cream truck in New England was at a beach on Cape Cod...

The ICT's come here even during winter -.-;

@nej: i'm jealous of that.
@everyone else: you may have lived in neighborhoods where there weren't a lot of kids. unless the volume of children in a neighborhood is high, the ice cream truck won't strike. culdesacs are common targets. it's why i would always find them when i was at my grandparents', but never at home (i can count the number of times i've seen ice cream trucks in my neighboorhood in the past 10 years on both hands).

@Kari: There was actually quite a few kids in my neighborhood when I was younger, but the ice cream truck simply did not exist.

In fact, there's less kids here now, and just last year an ice cream truck came through here. I was in too much of a state of disbelief to chase after it; thinking maybe the heat was causing me to hallucinate

Chocofreak13

that's odd. maybe there are neighborhoods with a higher volume of kids in your town.

Ice cream trucks are real?

Nichi

@Kriz: No, bro; they're an urban legend, like bigfoot, milkmen, and the Apple III

J\K xD

Or your Apple III, at least.

Yeah, as I thought they where an urban legend; like the Loch Ness Monster or the Commodore Amiga
