Creamy beef ( my Dad called it **** on a shingle) I understand it to be a Military term ha ha ha anyway it was this stuff on a piece of toast or bread. I haven't seen it on anyone's menu around here anyway. This and grits were popular Diner fair when I was a kid

Talk about a coincidence. I was just thinking about S.O.S. yesterday. It was a regular dinner meal in my house but I have not had it in years and loved it.

This might just be a "Jersey" thing.

We got one of these for my Father one year for Christmas since he commuted up and down the Garden State Parkway every day.

He got pretty good with it. On cold days he would flip the vent window, (another thing you don't see anymore!) around in his VW bug and shoot that quarter into the basket while going 30 miles an hour!

Nowadays, you're better off not having anything that even remotely resembles a gun in your car, let alone pointing it outside your car window!

Of course, a lot of that depends on who you are and where you live...
