Billy Mays Passes

[Hoss]

Closest one to here is in arkansas. We don't have White Castle either except in the freezer case which is NOT the same thing.

Not according to WhiteCastle's website.  I think the closest one now is in St. Louis.  I believe all the KC locations are gone.

TMZ is saying no head injury or hematoma, most likely heart disease, which would not be surprising.  That was my first guess until I heard he got gonked on the head. 

Another report says he had a pulmonary embolism, which does happen from time to time to people who have just flown long distances.  They sit in one position too long, a clot forms in a leg, it dislodges and winds up in a lung.

They did say he was due for his third hip replacement today and that he was on pain meds but they were fully accounted for, and no signs of abuse.

There's a Krystal in Springdale, where Rally's used to be.

I was responding to the post about Krystal, which is in Arkansas. I know where the White Castle is in St Louis. I load up two bags anytime I pass it westbound.

Sorry; misread.  Never been to Krystal's.

I thought Ya'll have Krystals in the South

Oklahoma is not the south.  It is Oklahoma.   I figure if I can't  get an order of grits with breakfast anywhere I go then I am not in the south.  And if you can only get unsweet tea, except at QT then I am not home.  When I have to ask for unsweet tea then I know I am home.  I am a Florida Cracker first and a thank goodness i live in Oklahoma by choice.

OMG, you have never been to a Krystal's - pronunced Chrystal's in Alabama - especially at 2 in the morning, then you have to add this to your to do list.

So what region is Oklahoma in?  I'm originally from Canada so I assumed it was in the South.  Whatever it's in it begins with South lol

You won't be doing that in Springdale. The damn Krystal closes at 10 most nights. I think they're open until midnight friday and saturday. 

I much preferred when they first opened and were 24 hours, since when I'm over there I'm usually missing dinner and working until 2 or 3 in the morning.

I'm confused after all these posts, did Billy Mays die from hamburgers?  Were they White Castle or Krystals?

Tulsa is considered the northern most southern city. OK was not a state during the Civil War, but what is north eastern OK was part of the south.

During the Civil War, my family fought for the west.

"The south" is east of Oklahoma. I think we're midwest, despite being in the center of the country E-W. Whoever decided all this seems to have used DC as the center of the US.

Actually, I believe Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri are still referred to as the midwest.  We are central plains, though if you pick only the 8 spokes of the compass, I hear south, southwest, or south central.

I saw my first Oxyclean commercial post Billy Mays...I'm surprised to say, compared to his pitching, it sucked.

I never realized how good he was at catching my attention.

Now it's boring as hell.

Some quiet female narrator and scenes of things getting cleaned.
