Liquor Truck

Wouldn't that be great? Like the popsicle man, only The Liquor Man. Big truck stocked with all kinds of alcoholic beverages. Every week he would have something new or rare. He'd give away samples and have weekly specials. He would ring a big bell when he was outside your house, and boy would I run. Like Palov's dog. He wouldn't give you crap about taking checks either, and let his good customers run up tabs. On your birthday, he would deliver a big basket of booze to your door, just to say 'thanks, good alcoholic customer.'

And he stops for half an hour in every neighborhood so you can sit there and drink. Like a mobile bar. A Barmobile.

modern utopia... tears welling up in eyes too beautiful to ponder.

I think if the Liquor Man existed, the sound of his bell would cause mass chaos as people flocked to the source in seconds.

But what a lovely dream.

Oh, lord, it's a beautiful thought. What would you have to do to get licensed as a Beer Truck Man? It could become a reality if someone tried hard enough. But you'd have to travel armed.

Nah, just give freebies to Joe 12 - He'll keep the fuckers in line! Of course, he would ride on the back of the truck like a garbage man, chugging beers the whole way - but better then giving samples away to EVERYONE!

You can say that I'm a dreamer,
But I'm not the only one.
We hope some day, You'll join us,
and the world will get really drunk.

It would be hard to find a driver who wouldn't drink up all the inventory...and then drive around all hammered.

believe it or don't--but I ran an ice cream truck in the summer of maybe my 19th year. The dry ice kept my 6 ice cold (duh) and in those days I'd spark one before starting the rounds. And just like a ice cream truck, I'd imagine the Liquor Man would have the ocassional wannabe customer without cash, who would stick out an empty hand, hoping to pay with pretend money. Broke my heart then, and would do so now. I'd give up the inventory.
