1. *coughs* what IS a root beer float?

Maybe I'd like to go for one if I knew what it is. Even though I'm drinking French red wine right now :)

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!

3. You take a root beer and pour it into a glass.

Then you get a big ole scoop of vanilla ice cream and plop it into the root beer. MMMMMMMM

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. No no no

The ice cream goes in FIRST, then the root beer. :)

[texas1928]

7. Well it will float that way.

but that is the real way..

I like my ice cream in first too.

cause it just melts the ice cream a little as you poor it in and mixes so nicely.

8. ME! ME! ME! I'D like to go for a root beer float!

Please shove some over! *licks lips*

2. How about a milkshake?

I could go for a frosty milkshake.

[texas1928]

4. Well we could go to Sonic and get a blended float.

thems are pretty good.

But if you just have to have a milkshake, I am sure we can find you a jittery cow.

[GOPisEvil]

5. Hmmm...Sonic is a good choice.

Donations to the Democrats are a good thing.

14. Meet me in Waco...

...and we can get Dr. Pepper milkshakes there. Decadent!!

[texas1928]

15. I have had one.

I like the Dr. Pepper Sundaes. Where they use DP syrup to make the sundae. Those are good.

[GOPisEvil]

29. Oh yeah! Those are good.

About the only thing good about Waco. ;)

9. Can I have a Guiness float instead

MMMmmmm Malty goodness

[texas1928]

11. EEWW

:puke:

[seemunkee]

25. Pffft.

Then how about a rootbeer float with guiness icecream?

[texas1928]

27. What is wrong with your taste buds?

:P

[seemunkee]

28. They're fine. You don't know what you are missing.

I think I'll go churn up a batch of guiness ice cream. All we have is diet rootbeer but it will have to do.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. I'm coming over!

Sounds like that would just hit the spot! MMMMMMMMM indeed!

:toast:

[texas1928]

12. Long drive just for a float.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. I'm bored!

And I have a LOT of time on my hands today...finished reading Harry Potter....

I suspect you'd be good company!

:beer:

[texas1928]

24. I would not be great company today.

Am on call and also packing to move.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. I was remembering that you are on call when I posted!

I'm glad you're moving! Sounds like it's time for you to find a much BETTER neighborhood, IMHO...

OH well, I'll just have to find some other way to cure this boredom!

[Lilyhoney]

16. It has to be a good root beer

not just any will do. Micro brewed root beers are the best. Like Goose Island or Henry Weinheart. And the Ice cream has to be Haagen Das or Breyers. Yes, I would like one please. :bounce:

[texas1928]

18. Picky

:P

[Lilyhoney]

21. Oh, if you only knew.

And I forgot to mention that the ice cream has to go in first. :toast: <--- root beer floats.

[texas1928]

23. I like the ice cream in first.

Some like it last.

[RetroLounge]

19. Sprecher's Root Beer please

Hell Yes!

We called these Black Cows when we were kids...

20. Anybody here remember the old A&W stands?

Now that was good root beer. :beer:

[texas1928]

22. Well there used to be this root beer that had an elf or something.

He had a blue shirt and red hat. I can not remember the name of that root beer but it was the best. Better than A&W.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

32. Frostie.........

Hires is the best, though.

[Greyhound]

33. Don't know about the red capped, green shirted elf, but...

I know Hires tho and it's not even close to the original A&W. I'm talking the old stands, nothing like the crap that bears the name now.

[RetroLounge]

30. Oh Yeah, A&W Drive In's

Great stuff!
