paging Giant Hamburger

could you please kindly explain this image?

i really can't figure out exactly what the heck that structure is or might be used for.
nor can i figure out just why one of your types would be perched upon it.

<img src="http://www.gocedc.org/Images/Seymour2.jpg">

upon further eye straining inspection, i do believe that sign says "grill" on it.
why aren't there any windows? are there some dark mysterious secrets cooking inside that building?

Hail Bernadette!

You have drawn me out of my dark cave.

A Temple to the Giant Hamburger can rise up in the most unlikely of places. The quality of materials may vary from location to location but the true believer’s fervent adoration and undying loyalty cannot be questioned. The symbol of the hamburger as an icon of power has been represented in human architecture for tens of years. This example, while not the most technologically advanced, makes up for its mechanical simplicity with a generous dose of idolatry. No man, woman or child can doubt what delicious sacrament they will be administered when they enter that gladsome place of worship. Windows are unnoticed and unnecessary if you are truly devoted.

Perhaps I can take you there for lunch sometime,
-GH

well.. the sign to the right of it says Charlies Grill or whatever...so I assume this is a very cheesy 50's oversized ad for it. There's a oil change station nearby me, has a 50 ft tall mechanic beckoning cars in to the garage. Very ostentatious, how american.

Some people will go to great lengths to worship at the alter of the Giant Hamburger...

The best thing about worshipping the GH is that it welcomes all denominations:

All Dressed - much like the Catholic church this order is very fancy but can make you nauseous if mass consumed

Just Ketchup - usually the training ground for younger converts not ready for something as outlandish as All Dressed

Naked - for the Franciscan wannabe there is nothing more complete than a bare bones burger... curses to the fancy pants, corrupted souls who would deign to garnish their lord and saviour.

The Gourmet - only sirloin will make the cut... exotic cheeses and condiments... the most garish of the garnish. These followers wear their new found religion on their sleeves (and frequently their laps as well... what is it with people who can't see when enough is enough). They are often found trying to win over Giant Hotdog eaters with the appeal of their larger condiment holding surfaces...

The rest of the followers are ususally well meaning people who just appreciate all of the yummy goodness found in each and every combination of their own version of hamburger perfection... they are even know to share the grill with hotdogs, turkey and veggie burgers and (gasp) chicken satay...

I leave you now to celebrate the high holiday of the Giant Hamburger...

Ladies and gentlemen... start your grills and prepare the fireworks for the July 1 and July 4 midsummer celebration of the Giant Hamburger.

<b>THE UNBEATABLE BURGER</b>

Feeling hungry? Feeling really hungry? Then how about ordering one of these gut-busting NINE pound burgers!

This whopper of a snack doesn't just contain enough meat to feed a football team, it also comes fully-loaded with all the 'fixins'; namely a half-head of lettuce, two whole tomatoes, 12 slices of cheese, two entire onions, a full cup of peppers, plus a 'river' of mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard.

For the price of $23.95, brave - or foolish - visitors to Denny's pub in Clearfield, Pennsylvannia, can take up the challenge that has beaten the appetites of many a hopeful before.

Bar owner Denny Liegy said he first put the burger - which contains 6 pounds of meat - on the menu in 1998. Since then, he has received about one request a month for Ye Olde 96er, so-called because it weighs 96 ounces - but no-one has managed to finish it yet.

But since a recent TV show featured a burger-eating competition at the bar, more and more people have been showing up to test the stamina of their stomachs.

Chris Cummings, a student from North Carolina, had driven nine hours with his two buddies to take the ultimate taste test.

After finally giving up the challenge over an hour later, Chris and his pals left the pub defeated by the mammoth meat feast.

Denny has even had people from all over the world visit him to try and beat the burger; including tourists from England, Germany and Australia.

Of course, not one of these international wannabes has succeeded and like everyone else they leave with a full doggie-bag.

Amazingly, the pub's all-time burger-chomping champ came in the slim form of 90-pound Lori Weiss. Lori came close to eating one tenth of her own bodyweight, but unfortunately the hard-eating lady couldn't find room for the bottom of the bun.

It seems that Denny's mighty burger can not only make a meal of any rival Big Mac or Whopper, but seems destined to remain the unconquerable challenge on any big-eater's menu.
