7/10..."It melted?!?" I think not. Decent score considering four, that I'd never heard of before. Hey that rhymed, I do that from time to time. Okay, I won't deny that I really do try, sometimes. *sigh*

9/10 I luv my ice cream, even in a snowy, cold winter! I used to buy 3 chocalate eclairs from the good humor man all the time, and he used to stop in front of my house waitin for me! Ah the good ol days on the south side of Chicago in the 60s and 70s!!

I'm too apprehensive to take this quiz because I don't know any of the answers except for #5. So I will let it go at that. 1 for 1.😄

Uh oh … It melted 👎
I recall going back home to visit my dad in suburbia; 4-year-old daughter in tow. One afternoon it was warm so we had only the screen door closed and I heard a very familiar tune outside. It was the very same music that the ice cream truck played when I was a kid. I grabbed my daughter’s hand, wheeled out the door only to see the truck hauling *bleep* around the corner. My dad said it was some guy who didn’t really like the neighborhood tours and preferred to sit stationary in a parking lot - but we were ready for him the next day. My daughter thought it cool cuz we lived in the country where we didn’t have ice cream trucks.

Try selecting the first option for each one and you'll do much better! Now that's some good advice taken from another commentor who got 8/10 on one quiz by using that method.
