The Icy Famous

I just learned that the guy who created Dippin' Dots got his undergraduate and graduate degrees in microbiology from Southern Illinois University--Carbondale, where I got my undergraduate degrees. When I first saw these Dippin' Dots being sold, I was drawn to them. They never hit me right, though. Cool idea. And they look cool, Willy Wonka-style, Candyland-Style. My kind of thing. But I'd much rather have a gigantic bowl heaped with ice cream.

Jenny McCarthy also went to SIUC. And Jim Belushi.

Why am I not famous yet? Because I'm not yet dead. Because I'm just not.
