Editor’s note. My family and I will be on our vacation through September 7. I will occasionally add new items but for the most part we will repost “the best of the best” — the stories our readers have told us they especially liked.
Each day I swear I could post, at a minimum, one item under the category of “you can’t make this stuff.” Today menu item, so to speak, comes from NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon (See below.)30

Get it? Rocky Roe v. Wade? It looks pretty much like…..Rocky Road, but what the heck.
It’s $9.50 for a pint, so obviously this is a fundraiser for NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon and a way for @WhatstheScoopdx to get its brand wider recognition.
At least the ad doesn’t have a little girl taking a bite out of ice cream cone. I guess even NARAL draws the line somewhere.
