It's "slow" ice cream, designed not to melt quickly in the heat. |

Speaking of ice cream, does anyone else have a craving for Coldstone Creamery?
Or Maggie Moo's? Bubble gum flavor?

Nobody has actually said what it is unless that slow melting ice cream was the answer.
Why the world is it called I Am Sam then???? |

�� is an abbreviation of "teacher," I believe.
The guy in the commercial is is saying "I am a teacher." My guess is the ads started showing some time around Teacher's Day.
Still kinda strange, though.

Yep. Just do your best Corky impersonation.
On a side note: After showing his students the movie, "I am Sam" We had a teacher at the old school, do his Corky impersonation while trying to explain mentally retarded to his students. The teacher was 51 years old!!!! |
