I am thinking of starting an Ugly Logo pool. Any interest?
I gave into temptation and had a chocolate cone with chocolate sprinkles.

And I hope he led you down three blocks

No. The truck was sitting at a corner on the
Upper West Side, I think near Columbus
somewhere.

Nice. I saw two of these today walking around
downtown. A sure sign that summer's just
around the corner. By the way, did you know
that the Mr. Softee song actually has lyrics?
I'll see if I can dig them up somewhere.

It always freaked me out that his head was an
ice cream cone.

I recall reading in Weird N.J. that their HQ is in New Jersey somewhere and
they have half a truck on the roof as a sign.

They were also voted as the Best Ice Cream
from a truck recently....I like their
products, but our local truck comes down our
street at 9:30 every night like some kind of
surreal movie scene. I hate it's music.

I hate the music, too. However, it is a great
deal - $2.00 for a cone of soft chocolate ice
cream with chocolate sprinkles. Perfect to
find while biking trhough the city on a warm
day!

I found an MP3 and lyrics of the jingle from WFMU's Beware of the Blog :I can tell you that the Mr. Softee theme was
probably written by Waas-Block Productions of
Philadelphia, because a bit of it turned up
on an old commercial demo reel of theirs that
I used to have. This page specifically cites Les Waas as the producer
and perhaps composer.
