You Scream, We Scream

To tell the truth, the workers at Ben & Jerry's Scoop Shop in Clifton Heights expected a little bit of a mess today when "celebrity" scoopers came to dish out ice cream as part of a fundraiser for the Make A Wish Foundation. So admits Monique Swain, marketing director at the store.

“They watched us, then they went on and did the scooping," she said.

Among those celebrities celebrating National Free Cone day today: Cincinnati City Council members Laketa Cole, Chris Bortz and Jeff Berding; University of Cincinnati cheerleaders; and the Bearcat mascot.

Cole called Make A Wish, which grants wishes to ill children, a wonderful organization that "lights up the lives of many children across America."

There's still time for other politicians to scoop - the store, on Calhoun street on the edge of the U.C. campus, is open till 8 p.m. All tips and donations go to the foundation.

Calling those three clowns celebrities might be a bit of an overstatement. However given their antics on City Clowncil it is fitting that they seek other vocational training when and where they can.

what flavor of ice cream were 3 of the fiscal five dishing out?
baloney and BS don't sound like appealing flavors.thought Berding was on a diet but anyway we'll see less of him after November
