White Castle hamburgers?
They've got them frozen at the supermarket. My Dr. says I'm not even allowed to look at them. "Gut Bombs," or "Rectum Rockets," and an order of "Scabs" were a regular late nite finish when I was in school.
Last I looked they still operate a chain of "Restaurants."

Helm's Bread Truck, fresh glazed donuts delivered curbside, gotta think even today's children would buy into that.

There use to be an A&W drive-in restaurant and a Stake-n-Shake that both had window service and the Steak-n-Shake actually had servers in roller skates. They were as fun to go to as Bigboy's

Now, I go to the drive-thru window at Steak-n-Shake whenever I am in Florida for the malts.

Mom would say, "Go outside and I don't want to see you until the street lights come on." Now it's " Where are you? I don't see you." A :sosad: commentary on what we've become.
Yes it is a commentary, sad.
My mom had a different version, "Why don't you kids go outside and get the stink blown off you!". Must be a Jersey thing. Can still hear her voice.

Isn't that: "...blown ORF ya?" :) From NYC, that's what I got. :) All the great places we used to play are now apartment buildings!

Stu, in SOUTH Jersey it's "off".
We're closer to Phila than NY.

Had dinner tonight at "Molly's Reach" the restaurant made famous by the 17 year T.V. run of the Beachcombers. Great fish and chips but I had to take a picture of their "new" phone.IMG_0432.jpeg

YEAH! In the 1950s, my brother and I set pins in Bethany Beach for the summer. Six cents per game, per bowler.
Ha! So did I. In our club there was a small bench above the alley at the pin end. We would set the pins, then jump up on the bench and keep or feet above the pins....

I'd mention New York Systems "wienies" but they are still around. Poison now though at my age......:(
