Why?

The ice cream truck just drove by playing "Fur Elise."

Anyone else think that is kind of a depressing tune for an ice cream truck?

Good. I'll have your share. I love ice cream!

And there is something worse- a Mexican food truck that plays La Cucaracha! (There's a reason why they call 'em "Roach Coach"!)

Well, it's better than the one that drives around our neighborhood, playing Christmas Carols.

I think more depressing is the look on the drivers face as he sees Matt running behind him with his two dollars in hand.

I have fond memories as a kid of the guy on the three wheeled bycicle in a white outfit and he had that row of bells on over the handle bars jingling.

Why do the tunes on an ice cream truck always sound off key and off tempo? Once I heard one that seemed to speed up and then crash to slow speed again repeatedly. It sounded terrible. Not much of an attractor for the selling of goods. It reminded me of the off key circus music you hear in horror movies.

That's what I remember as a child too. No icecream truck, just a dude riding a tricycle, ringing those frigging bells.
And boy we could hear those bells from a mile away I swear!
