I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.

The table of contents sidebar on page 1 of our "award-winning" Paris News yesterday featured a local teacher -- "Honored: Braums honors local teacher P-10." So I turned to page 10 to see the headline: "Braums honors local teacher."

Reading the article, I found out that Beth Dennis, a finalist for state teacher of the year will be honored by Blue Bell Creameries with an ice cream party for her school.

"A Blue Bell truck will pull up in front of Thomas Justiss Elementary School . . . and a Blue Bell treat will be given to every student and staff member. . . "

"Blue Bell will present Dennis with a cooler full of her favorite Blue Bell flavor . . ."

" . . .and a congratulatory letter from Paul Kruse, president of Blue Bell Creameries."

"At Blue Bell, we believe there is no finer work you can do in this world than be a teacher . . ."

I didn't see one mention of Braums in the entire article. Oh, well, Blue Bell -- Braums -- they both start with a B and sell ice cream. What's the difference?
