   When I was a graduate student at Oral Roberts University and living on campus here in Tulsa, I had several friends who lived in the dorm who went to the folks house for Thanksgiving dinner.

   One of them was an undergrad from Cornwall, Ontario, Canada. We had home made ice cream and I gave him the pleasure of turning the crank on the White Mountain Ice Cream Freezer. He had never had home made ice cream.

   My mother made what some would call “French style Ice Cream.” It was made with whole milk, pasteurized of course and real eggs, too. Some folks refer to that as “Frozen Custard.”

   Those White Mountain Ice Cream Freezers are rather expensive now. They have a wooden bucket.

   I remember my summers at “Granddaddy’s” and we would have home-made ice cream. However, it doesn’t compare to Blue Bell ice cream.

   John Houseman (of the old Smith Barney commercials) woulld be so proud of this comic today…..speaking of OLD I still remember the old icecream maker always vanilla and always manned the crank…might be part of the reason my left shoulder is a weather bone now…but then that’s a differnt comic al together.

    My family’s ice cream freezer was from before White Mountain; the gearbox was cast iron, the canister was aluminum, and the lid was Bakelite. No drain plug, either; you had to turn it over to dump out the brine.

    I wish we still had one…

    Ericeman: Pluggers work for what’s important: Taking care of the family, keeping a good home, and enjoying the good things in life. The “ripped” people you see in the gyms are spending a lot of time strictly on themselves… time that could be better spent making a living or having a family.

    Does that answer the question?
