Whataburger Nickle coffee mug; I got at a garage sale, interestingly for a quarter. In 1980 Whataburger offered these mugs for sale and would refill them for a nickle.

Used to have an A frame Whataburger close to us, I had one of those, I would go there for lunch and coffee a couple of times a week.

My daughters first job was at a Whataburger. My Nickel cup from her time there is in the kitchen.
If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

Me and my wife was just talking about them. We thought we had one, but could not find it. I told her we would keep our eye out, we might run across one someday. Well we went to a few estate sales this weekend, and one of them had 4 of these cups. So we got them. Crazy we were just talking about them, then found them.
