Well, we need a flavor for March dont we.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!?!?!??!
Well, March comes in like a Lion (more on that in a minute [img]wink.gif[/img] ) and goes out like a lamb but that really doesnt help much as far as flavors go (who wants lamb flavored ice cream?!?!? [img]graemlins/gulp.gif[/img] )

Well, there's march madness and St Patty's day.
St Patty's day huh!??!?!
You know he supposedly chased the snakes out of Ireland. Maybe Samuel L should have consulted him before he did "snakes on a plane" he probably could have given him a few helpful tips.
Where was I. Oh yeah, flavors.
Well, something green always applies this month with spring in the air and the plants all coming back so we can toss mint chip and mint cookies and cream in there, but we need something more specific.
You know, snake flavored ice cream would be kinda nasty, but snakes rhymes with shakes.
Wait, that's it [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img]
SHAKES!
Why not. For march you can shake your tailfeathers, moneymaker or your groove thang while enjoying a shake. Any flavor you want.
As always, cips chunks, dips, dunks... (you know the rest) all count as well.
