    Sautee onions on a skillet, make a burger patty next to them.
    Smash the patty down, and when you flip it, put it on top of
    the onions. You get all of the hamburger grease cooking with
    the onions.

    Slice of american cheese on top a few moments before taking it
    off, and don't forget to grill the bun. Perfection.

    I just drooled all over my keyboard and clothes. :P I knew I should
    have eaten before getting to the QWK packet.

    White Castle burgers...are affectionately known as "gut grenades".

    I've also heard them called gut or butt bombs. I love 'em.

    I think it's the onions that cause all the gas.

    Unfortunately, since the prices have shot up, I get them much;
    six bacon-cheeseburgers for $13.xx? Fuggetaboutit!

    I haven't had them in awhile. I'm doing good with my tuna salad
    sandwich variations right now.

    When I was a caller, BBSing was a late night activity - once other
    callers had gone to bed and it was slightly easier to get through.

    Since running a BBS, it's been a morning, coffee and breakfast habit.
    I'm sitting here with a cup of coffee and a fried egg on toast, as a
    matter of fact.

    For me, it was just the opposite. While most people were at work/school, all the boards were freed up. After about 6-7, things got noticeably busier.

    Nowadays, I've spent so much time working with ham radio and square
    dance related material, I rarely have time for the BBS.

    When I do logon, I end up doing QWK Mail, and that's about it. I
    do try to update the weather and system bulletin data at least twice
    a day, though.
