Don't even get me started on Graeters... I might have to make the extremely strenuous 5 minute walk there tonight... 
As far as floats go, vanilla ice cream with orange soda is pretty darn good. Also, I did Dr. Pepper with chocolate ice cream once, which was quite tasty.

Picked up 3 pints for under $15 last weekend. Would have done 4 but when I did that last year I ended up in the hospital for "gas" (Cardiologist has a different opinion, the punk kid!). My hospital room was ground level. Across the way, the sign on a Graeter's shop mocked me for 4 days.

Can you say "Dreamsicle/Creamsicle"?

Exactly. I once had some orange cream soda that tasted exactly like that, but when I made the float, I only had normal orange soda.

IMHO, the only way to eat icecream is with a spoon.

No reason you can't have a root beer float with a spoon. 
How about an ice-cream sandwich? Ice cream between 2 homemade chocolate chips cookies. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

The only thing I want in my sandwich is ham. Ham, beautiful ham... and salami. Mmmm... 
(Oddly enough I have a hankering for Chinese food right now.)

The ability to make a good sandwich is a skill that is under appreciated.

No cheese?
Ever been to Miami and had a Cuban sandwich with ham and roast pork? Well, Cuban Pete's ain't a bad second...
Quote: EL CUBANO (CUBAN SANDWICH)
Authentic and to die for! Imported ham, slow roasted pork, Swiss cheese, pickles, mayo on fresh baked, authentic Cuban bread.
$7 95
And if I can't wait until lunch, this is even tastier
Quote: BREAKFAST CUBAN $7 95
A traditional Cuban sandwich topped with 2 fried eggs. Get a half sandwich topped with 1 egg for $3.95

Since you're a salami fan, ever had salami and cream cheese on a garlic bagel? Another reason to live!

Everything except the cheese sounds great! (Unfortunately not a big fan of cheese, because it doesn't agree with me).

Was that after the Not Your Father's Root Beer, or did they have that status before and now it's "my favorite daughter favorite fiancee?"
And, if that's your daughter's favorite bf, how many does she have???

He's been my favorite of her boyfriends since the beginning. He does all the right things, including telling her that if he is going to propose I (her favorite father), will know first.
Was afraid to let her know how much we like him because then she might have dropped him. If she did now, she might need to find herself some new parents.

The difference is with a liqueur its more like a sundae, unless you're looking for a real good hangover.

And that's exactly how that stuff tastes. Only during survival training I ever had to think about the nutritious value of tree bark or roots.

Now you've gotten me thinking about all the things I loved as a kid. And have been severely disappointed in as an adult.
Topping the list: Moxie. Tastes like cigarettes, now. Not smoking them...eating them.
But even Root Beer is just not making it anymore after a sip or two.
Cream soda? Nope. Can't drink it anymore.
And don't get me started on Birch Beer.
