Yahoo!'s 10th birthday is today. To celebrate, they're giving away... a scoop of ice cream, courtesy of Baskin Robbins.

I don't know about the rest of the country, but right now in Dallas it's 45 degrees.
Was this a promotion cooked up by Baskin Robbins to boost sales during a slow month? Does anyone else think this is weird?
