I’ve been getting quite a few proposals for business ventures… some realistic, and some aren’t quite a great marriage for the BGICT. Here’s one I’m on the fence about. Since crude oil might be a major component of cherry dip…. I have a project I want you to run with us. It involves exportation of [...]
Caught on Tape
Here’s Doug and the truck in full sound & vision. Matt (audio) & Matt (video) from ourscenetv.com stopped by one evening while we were at Union Square to shot our first on air video story (not counting ABC since we weren’t actually interviewed). Check it out here! Witness Doug make a Nutella cartwheel in high-speed [...]
Visitors
I have to repeat how astonished I am when I see where people are visiting this site from! I have several posts forthcoming that will be more substantial than recent entries, I promise. The truck is back out tomorrow..
Monday: another monsoon
Rain, rain, rain. AGAIN! Good lord. It’s been a while since I had a good shower of dairy goo, so today I corrected that problem. The very first tug on the vanilla nozzle coated the walls and all of me with liquid mix. Yay! I felt just as special as Carrie White at the prom. [...]
Hungary is hungry?
I’m suddenly getting a lot of visitors from Hungary (as noted through the blog tracking feature). I’m curious where you are all being referred from? HELLO!
Choinkwich luvin!
Is it love, or is it BACON?
Just cuz it makes me happy
My buddy Jose showed up a few days ago. He makes me happy, so I’m sharing the picture. If you’re saying “jeez, does Doug always wear the same clothes?” the answer is pretty much YES. I keep washing them. The shorts I’m wearing this summer on the truck (three pairs) are getting destroyed really quickly. [...]
Diddledeediddledee, deedeedee….
I’ve been making an effort to learn something about soft-serve, but there is little written about the history of it. I’m surprised, because I think it’s an interesting bit of Americana. Mr. Softee’s official website is a decent resource, but it may be a little biased. I’ve always found their ice-cream-brain mascot to be really [...]
Thursday, over. Again.
Though today was a rainy mess, it was not without numerous bright spots. I’d guess that nearly 50% of my sales were to people who came by specifically to get a treat from our truck. That was a nice feeling! I met a number of first-timers from Twitter, and more than a few who said [...]
My group Zephyros Winds has been dormant for a season. Recently we decided to take the ship out of spacedock, so today we have a photo session with Bell Soto. These things can be a weird energy-suck; you’re really just standing around but by the end you’re a zombie. Anyhow, it will be great to [...]
