Cruel and Unusual
The weather in DC has been absolutely perfect of late. Today, the temperature is approaching 90. And for the third day in a row, I have been tempted from my balcony by the enticing jingle of the ice cream man. And for the third day in row, upon investigation, I have been unable to locate his elusive truck. Each day, I have walked around my neighborhood to no avail. I am beginning to think a neighbor is cruelly taunting the neighborhood with a false jingle. That's just wrong.
