Seeing the Good Humor man in The Loop got me all nostalgic.

When I was a kid in Evanston, the Good Humor ice cream truck came by every night in summer.

We kids came pouring out the doors when we heard the bells jingle. Joe was our Good Humor Man. He wore a crisp white uniform with a white cap.

  2. Really grouchy. Mean. Heavyset. In retrospect, maybe he was getting off the sauce.
