SR Blogs: We All Scream

On his Slice blog, Paul Turner writes of a time when Neopolitan ice cream was called by another name: “I happen to know someone who once got some grief for referring to Neapolitan ice cream as “Van-choc-straw.” But there it is (lower left). “Van-Choc-Straw.” Big as you please. More here.

On his Slice blog , Paul Turner wonders: “We all know how people in the Spokane area love a bargain. So it stands to reason that, around here at least, people shopping for marijuana will be looking for low, low prices.It would be a bit of a culture clash for Wal-Mart to carry the stuff. And Costco is sort of busy selling booze right now. So maybe it will fall to individuals running yard sales to offer the real bargains.
