Irv Robbins, a man my girlfriend swears deserves two Nobel Peace Prizes, has passed away at the age of 90.  Robbins is best known for putting the Robbins in Baskin-Robbins and providing invaluable aid in my girlfriend's quest to gain 30 pounds.  In all seriousness though, I used to eat the hell out of some Baskin-Robbins as a kid, and Irv helped create countless memories for millions of ice cream loving children and adults alike.  *sniffle*  Thanks Irv, I hope you're rambling along that great Rocky Road in the sky.  *sob*  Now I need some mint chocolate chip.  </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.geekologie.com/2008/05/baskinrobbins_cofounder_dies_a.php"><P>R.I.P.
