Howard Johnson restaurants were way before the hotel chain, by twenty years......You probably lived out east if you remember them as they were off all the original eastern turnpikes.

Only four remain. See the above link. So sad, in a route 66 way...

You would really get a kick out of the old restaurants that were
everywhere when we went on vacation in the 50's and 60's..
we are talking a major piece of americana...they absolutely
oozed with personality, and even the lettering was cool...
it was like a combination Diner/fast food restaurant.....it was really unique.......the links have lots of fun historical stuff about it

They eventually built a motor lodge to compete with holiday inn,
and were really humming in the 50's and 60's....

now, just the hotel chain is left, and it has nothing of the nostagic,
slightly tacker diner feel or look to it anymore

Visit wm3.org and let me know what you think. Personally i think there is no chance that they did it.
I also belive that they where in no way given a fair trial.

This gentleman was convinced society was about to end and moved his wife and family somewhere in the Rockies. I remember that he was either a business owner or an upper level executive with a multimillion dollar income.

Does anyone else remember this story and know what happened after Y2K failed to materialize?

If you type "muslim", "islam", or "koran" into yahoo answers and do a spell check, you'll be advised to capitalize them...

If you type "christian" into yahoo answers, it does not advise capitalization.

Is this an innocent oversight, or a blatent show of how California liberals view the world?

(I'm not even religious...)

Someone replied to an earlier question and agreed with the statement about the way muslims treat women and then said he couldnt answer it as it was un PC. My reply to people like this is give yourself a good shake look at yourself in the mirror and then slap yourself hard on the jaw and keep doing it to wake yourself from sleepwalking into being a passive unopionated victim of castration. Their is a phrase when good men do nothing evil triumphs, thats how hitler came to power. A Italian author died last week Oriana Fallaci who wrote a book regarding the muslim faith and how destructive and medievil it is called The rage and the pride. The order for the PC brigade is go out buy a copy and read it from cover to cover then you have got the wake up call

It has never been safer for coalition forces in Iraq. (It is more dangerous for our soldiers in American inner cities than in Iraq) We lose a half dozen troops a week in Iraq these days compared to scores a week less than a year ago. The mosques we went out of our way not to hurt have been routinely attacked by muslims. Is Allah punishing his people for their failure to live peacefully with the rest of the world?

Or are doing something illegal, and they can take your property legally and search your house illegally with no warrant?
So under Bush any American can be a victim of his regimes autrocities! How can we let this happen?

I can say that I've truly loved sliders all my life. Let's admit it, what
is more unique that a sackfull of those mushy, onion-laded taste
treats with that funny brown sause on the bun?

http://www.whitecastle.com/_assets/images/food/menu/cheeseburger_lg.jpg

Anyone here ever try to Stack a Sack, like the guy in the pic below
is doing with the cheeseburgers?

Only at White Castles would you put in an order for 40, and
not have anyone bat an eye.
Only White Castle's would inspire"slider" recipes like the ones below

http://www.whitecastle.com/_pages/recipe_list.asp?section=cookoff&type=2005&recipe=1

Only white castle's would inspire entire hollywood movies based
on the restaurant!

They were the first open 24/7, and the classic way to eat them is
loaded, at 3AM, after a party with friends!
