The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for June 27, 2024

sad…true but sad

Is it a good idea to be driving that truck when the kids are playing Grand Theft Auto?

The ice cream truck still goes by.

Wouldn’t they already have Wi-Fi at their house?

Dog help us all.

True, now the kids are getting fat a different way!

Isn’t the point of WiFi so they don’t HAVE to go outside?

A very sore point between me and my grandsons. Grandma is an enabler.

Get this weak stuff out of here.

My mom would not let us stay in the house, made us go outside

And isn’t that just awful…

Cheaper than heroin and just as mind dumbing.

Oh, the ice cream man… I also lived in another country in my youth, and there was a guy who walked around with a giant block of ice and flavored syrups. He made the most delicious and refreshing shaved ice I’ve ever had. Those were the days!

When we didn’t have school we were kicked out after breakfast and told to be back by dark.

Our local ice cream truck vendor downsized to a golf cart. Her and her family have had a old van for years.

Auto-mobile hot spot.

The ice cream truck still gets me out of the house.

An orange-flavored 50-50 bar wasn’t available in any grocery store, so it was a real treat. Mom gave us the dime or whatever it was in 1957.

So are digital devices more addicting than sugar?

get your tutti frutti bandwith!

My neighbors still don’t get why my outdoor WIFI antenna is pointed at the special place in their house.

I scream you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

I cry you cry, we all cry for wifi!

boy, does that bring back memories…I can remember those days when the good humor wifi truck would drive slowly down the street, an’ we’d all walk behind him with our cellphones…but, those days are just a distant memory now…sigh…….

Ice cream trucks are timeless

this is a stretch. the only way to get kids outside these days is to throw them out and bolt the door…
