ROANOKE — A Roanoke man claims sheriff's deputies beat him in the city jail because of his burping. Thomas Scott Vandegrift made the allegations in a federal lawsuit filed last week against several deputies, the city, the sheriff's office and the sheriff. According to the lawsuit, the deputies were annoyed by Vandegrift's burping, which was caused by acid reflux.
Vandegrift was being held at the jail on a drunken driving charge. He pleaded no contest in 2008 and received a six-month suspended sentence, a $750 fine and a year of driving restrictions.
The lawsuit alleges excessive force, conspiracy to violate civil rights and assault and battery.

I call White Castles “gut bombs” myself. Thankfully, the sin is worth the penance.

I can’t eat them after my dad told me it was horse meat. I know it isn’t but I still have that in my mind.

Some of us thought so on a recent thread but nothing came of it.
Maybe this time....

I always called White Castle burgers “gut grenades” or “bowel bombs”. The fish sandwich I called “deep sea depth charge” and the fries are “coffin nails”.Why are all of the high quality restaurants on one coast or the other?
