I miss Burger Chef.

There was one in Ironton and it was where Peddler's is today.

The Big Chef sandwich was my favorite.

I also have some of the Looney Tunes glasses from there.

I used to collect them.

I liked Burger Chef as well, and I also started to collect those glasses. I had Tazmanian Devil, Foghorn Leghorn, and Wiley Coyote. Wish I had kept them.

I liked Borden Burger too that was located a couple of blocks from St. Lawrence Elementary.

Do you mean the dairy bar across the street from Ohio University?

If so, it is there. It is called The Shake Shoppe now.

Also, now that I think of it, the Looney Tunes glasses were from Borden Burger and not Burger Chef.

No Instructor, I had 93 confused with 141 . . . it's been a few years since I've been home. I was talking more towards downtown . . . the joint that TTT just said is now closed.

The Shake Shoppe . . . wasn't that L&J's or something like that? I liked getting soft ice cream cones from there.

I live outside the Ann Arbor area now. I haven't lived in Ironton since I left for college in 1986.

So, you graduated from Ironton in 1986? If so, we were in the same class.

Yes . . . with only 23 or so people in our graduating class, there's a 100% chance I know your cousin's wife. :-D
