musings a go go

Here's another one for you---when I was little we always went to family reunions in Texas---I'm talking about a town out in the middle of nowhere called Throckmorton which is an incredibly small town. One thing that stuck out in Texas was that every little town had a Dairy Queen, so I have been fascinated by Dairy Queens since a child. I even had a restaurant playhouse with a Dairy Queen sign on it. Mind you, I have never been a fan of their food, but their ice creams are nice--the photo of the one in my town (with the little Dairy Queen on the top) gives everyone a free ice cream cone when they come up to order (there is no drive thru). Anyway, Dairy Queen or DQ has undergone a radical transformation as well. Look at the old style versus the new DQ Grill and Chill style.
