Tim,

K>SO very true... these "keyboard warriors" are just that.. they do this behind
K>their keyboard, but I guarantee if you were face to face with one they would'
K>even look at you, they would hang their head to the ground and scurry away.

  Plus, they hide behind aliases. I operate my BBS above reproach...just
like my ham radio station, as per "The Amateur's Code, written by the
late Walt M. Segal, W9EEA, SK, back in 1927.

K>Same here.. I can tell you some very creative ways I used to get my whoopings

  I consider myself better for the spankings I got. It didn't ruin my
self esteem in the least.

  On the ham radio nets, I'll treat the other hams with respect...like
"Mr. John", "Mr. Roy", "Miss Connie", "Miss Janice", etc. Because if I
treat others with respect, they will reciprocate.

K>Lol, I was the nightshift manager at burgerking a good many years ago, and ju
K>about had all my family and friends working there. the owner of that particul
K>frachise loved it because we all worked together so well.

  Some nights, I was the only white guy on the crew...but my fellow
black employees were a hoot to work with. We pee the same yellow, poop
the same brown, and bleed the same red. Not everyone of a different race
is bad...but in every race, there's always that group of "bad apples"
that gives the rest of the race a bad name. And those complaining about
"stereotypes", need to realize that "the videos speak for themselves".

K>Wow.. that sounds like you would need to take some pipe cleaners through your
K>arteries to clean out the cholesterol after one sitting.

  If I really wanted that, I'd get fried beef liver and sauteed onions.
While I can already hear the EWWWWWW!! from folks, my late grandmother
could make up some of the best of those that I've ever eaten!!

K>I still cannot really eat there too much just because I worked there and eat 
K>just about every day. same goes for any other eatery I've ever worked at..

  My elderly Mom and I usually go to Sonic...they serve their drinks
with crushed ice (I love that!), and we don't have to get out of the
car. Plus, if you go during "Happy Hour" (2pm to 4pm local time), all
drinks are half price.

K>What I loved about working there though, even though we kept that store so
K>clean one could eat off the floor, on the weekends it would get so busy at
K>night that our broiler would ALWAYS catch fire at peak hours. we'd have to pu
K>it out with an extinguisher, break it down, wash it, put it back together and
K>fire it up again. we got so good that we could break it down in less than 10
K>minutes with it still flaming hot.

  Wow. I remember having to, as "porter" put those "grease screens" from
both the broiler and fry vat into this huge tank of lye (sodium
hydroxide), then rinse them clean in the morning. I was working at the
original one in Little Rock before they began serving breakfast.

K>I would get customers who would come up and tell me thats the whole reason th
K>come on peak hours on weekend nights is to just catch the fire show.. and wat
K>the customers who did'nt know that it occured frequently at peak hours freak
K>out over it and just about evacuate the store... HAHAHA some good ol times..

  I'm sure the Fire Department made frequent visits to your restaurant.


K>anyway.. think I've gotton way off topic here.. this no longer has anything a
K>all to do with SBBS :)

  But, as Janis Kracht notes in The FIDOGazette..."even Sysops have to
eat".
