Some parts of the country dont have White Castles, but for those who know and remember them, hope you enjoy this. Nights At White Castle
Every year when I land at Wier Cook, the first order of business is to pull in to the nearest White Castle (Washington st near the airport) for some gut bombs to clean out my pipes. An hour later I question why. Cause, I always get one too many.
Know the area quite well. The White Castle is still there. Used to take the Pelham Bay line to work in Manhattan each day when I lived on East Tremont Ave, back in the 70s. T/here was an Italian deli across the street. Joe kept 2 Neapolitan Mastiffs in his shop. One night, a burglar broke in. The dogs sat quietly. Once the perp entered the store, one pulled him to the floor and the other stood guard until morning when Joe, the owner, returned.
You don't mess with these dogs ;-)
Wish I had one of those. Someone and his buddy snuck up behind the police station and put those stickers and NORML bumper stickers on two of the squads. They drove around for several days before they noticed.
It’s a little-known fact that White Castle burgers actually started out as oiler pads for bearings on heavy machinery....
I would have thought KSHE was an all-Feminist talk station.

The “K” signifies that station is west of the Mississippi river. Those stations east of the river start with the letter “W”.
Thanks for confirming the prices, I always had a memory of 5 cents. We would spend Saturday night at Grandma’s with a few other cousins usually, then she would take us to the Hampton Rd WC in St. Louis for breakfast. It was kinda like it’s own communion...
Thank you whoever composed this paean to White Castle.
Just WOW!
So was I!
Later, had a "Totes" bag I could pack with sliders on the way to the airport after the race weekend.
Still go to the race but buy my W.C. from the local freezer section. That way I always have them!
