A woman approaches an ice cream counter and says, "I'd like two scoops of chocolate ice cream, please."

The girl behind the counter replied, "I'm very sorry, mam, but our delivery didn't come this morning. We're out of chocolate."

"In that case," the woman continued, "I'll have one scoop of chocolate ice cream."

"You don't understand, mam," the girl says. "We have no chocolate."

"Then just give me some chocolate," she insists.

Getting angrier by the second, the girl asked, "Mam, will you spell 'van,' as in 'vanilla?'"

The woman spells, "V A N."

"Now spell 'straw,' as in 'strawberry.'"

"OK. S-T-R-A-W."

"Now," the girl asked, "spell 'stink,' as in chocolate."

The woman hesitates, then confused, replied, "There is no stink in chocolate." "

That's what I've been trying to tell you!" she screams.

Sure hope that doesn't happen to you Pink! Be sure and make it a double.

Congratulations on your third year mark. Through the years may the exclamation points continue to run off the page!!!
