    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am down in Florida on vacation and was picking up a few items from the local Publix grocery store. I was in the freezer section when what do I see???? I see Blue Bell ice cream. This is the same ice cream that Lucille said was the best in the world. So, I decided to try it especially since one of the flavors is Southern Back Berry Cobbler.

So, here I am with 3 days left in my vacation and instead of enjoying myself I am mourning the day that I have to leave Florida for Illinois as I cannot get this stuff around home. This stinks! But, the ice cream is truly the best I have ever tasted!

You know how when you buy regular ice cream and it sits in the freezer for a few days only to become rock solid? This is so creamy that it simply does not get hard. After 2 days in the freezer I can still use a regular spoon to dish it out. It's incredibly creamy and smooth. It's simply hard to describe accurately.

$84 for 2 gallon? The container had better be gold lined at that rate!

Let's put it this way... Blue Bell is only sold in 16 states. In spite of having such a limited territory, it is the third best selling ice cream in the U.S.

When finances permit we own 3% I'm sure. If I made butt loads of money I'd have to move Laura around the house in a wheel barrow due to BlueBell.
 
Well dang now I wish I hadn't read this thread! I am not a ice cream fan by nature but do occasionally indulge and since I am trying to plan a trip that direction I may just have to give it a try.
It will stick in my mind now and not sure I can resist the temptation.
 
Why don't you try and work a deal with a local shop to become a distibutor? You might even make some money out of it?
