• Kip's (Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, 1958–1991, founded Fred Bell, Thomas W. Holman and James Reed) Bell owned and operated Kip's of Texas, while Holman and Reed owned and operated Kip's of Oklahoma and Kansas. Acquired by Frisch's in 1972. Kip's territory was transferred to Big Boy Restaurants International in 2001. Bell became an original member of the Big Boy Board of Directors.

• Lendy's (Western Virginia, 1955–1964, founded by Leonard Goldstein) Owned by Goldstein but operated as Shoney's 1955-1959. Territory proximity to Yoda's angered Goldstein and concurrent franchise with Kentucky Fried Chicken antagonized franchisor Alex Schoenbaum, prompting Lendy's to leave Big Boy. Renamed the "Big Boy" hamburger as the "Buddy Boy" and created a Buddy Boy mascot similar to Frisch's Big Boy character.

• Leo's (Spokane, Washington, Montana, 1966–1971, founded by Leo A. Hansen, Jr.) The first Leo's Big Boy opened in Great Falls, Montana in 1966. Grew to four units before being acquired by and renamed JB's in 1971, Hansen becoming a vice-president of JB's Big Boy.

A.	1937. The first Big Boy (left) was derived from a sketch by Warner Brothers animation artist Bennie Washam in 1937. A frequent customer, Washam doodled the character on a napkin for Bob Wian for a free lunch. The logo, redrawn holding a hamburger (right), was typically used by Wian and several early franchisees: Parkette (Shoney's), Elias Brothers and Frejlach's. The orientation was also reversed.
B.	1952. Wian's first franchisee, David Frisch, developed his own Big Boy character. Dated 1952, the design was copyrighted in 1951 and became known as the East Coast Big Boy. He was the model for fiberglass statues used by Frisch's, and subfranchises Azar's and Manners. This Big Boy varied between blond and reddish blond hair. Unlike West Coast designs (A) and (C), he held the hamburger in both hands and was always running to his left.
C.	1956. This scheme introduced the modern Big Boy character and is the model for the iconic fiberglass statues. It replaced Wian's original figure (A), and was actually seen in 1955 Shoney's advertisements. Typically drawn with the hamburger atop his right arm, occasionally the hamburger was raised atop his left arm. Shown is a common version of the several renderings used. By 2009, a new styled version is sometimes being used again.
D.	1969. Revised East Coast Big Boy...
E.	1969. Revised West Coast Big Boy...
	Differences between the East and West Coast designs, including the statues, created confusion along the Ohio-Michigan border where Frisch's and Elias Brothers operated. This motivated a common Big Boy mark, derived with elements of both predecessors, (B) and (C). He retained the look of the West Coast figure (C) but assumed the running pose and orientation of the East Coast figure (B). Nonetheless similar West and East Coast versions were realized, maintaining the facial style of the previous marks, respectively. Frisch's continued to use (D) through 2016.
F.	1981. To emphasize a full menu the hamburger was removed from the West Coast design.
G.	1988. After buying Big Boy, Elias Brothers lowered the left arm completely.

It is premature to state that Spector died from complications from COVID-19. The New York Times reported that his daughter said he died of complications of COVID-19. A TMZ article (not cited) also reported COVID-19 using unnamed sources. However, The Los Angeles Times said that Spector — although ill and hospitalized for COVID-19 — died of natural causes according to the CA Dept. of Corrections, pending investigation by the San Joaquin County Medical Examiner. The Irish Times article cited in the article concurrs. I essentially agree with Wyliepedia: The article should say natural causes until COVID-19 is reported by officials involved. Otherwise, we must add and clarify who attributed his death to COVID-19. — βox73 (৳alk) 00:57, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

Ultraviolet light (tanning)

Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light, as with natural or indoor sun tanning, may produce euphoria. UV light is known to release β-endorphin and regular tanners often report feelings of well being and tranquility immediately afterwards. As with other behavioral euphoriants, excessive indoor tanning has addictive characteristics and is now considered a behavioral addiction.

Other medications

Dextromethorphan at higher than approved doses can produce euphoria; the drug may or may not potentiate the euphoric affect of opioids. Persons with opioid addiction have used tricyclic antidepressants including amithiptyline and dosulepin, anticholinergics such as diphenhydramine and benztropin, and the α2 agonist clonidine to produce euphoria.. (Tricyclic antidepressants in high doses or combined with depressants may be fatal.)

Wian, who managed to get by without taking homework home was voted by his graduating class least likely to succeed.

During high school he worked in the cafeteria.

Robert C. Wian, Jr., better known as Bob Wian graduated from Glendale High School in 1933. Having worked several years in the school cafeteria, he found a job as the nighttime dishwasher at a White Log Coffee Shop, a California chain similar to White Castle. Wian soon envisioned himself having a chain of restaurants and took an interest in the White Log operation. He was soon promoted to fry cook. Once he learned the White Log system, he quit and took a job as a dishwasher at The Rite Spot. A favorite restaurant, the Rite Spot was owned by Lionel Sternberg, who invented the cheeseburger there a decade earlier. Wian befriended the manager and likewise advanced to fry cook, then learning how their foods and food stuffs were made. At some point Wian also worked at a local Pig Stand drive-in restaurant, gaining curb service experience.

In the summer of 1936 Wian learned that "The Pantry" a ten stool ice cream stand near his home that was for sale. Encouraged by his dad, Wian sold his car for $350 and bought the place. His father contributed $50 for food and supplies. Renamed "Bob's Pantry" Wian opened for business on August 6, 1936. Wian initially worked the operation by himself, excepting his grandmother providing pies and his father purchasing supplies. Six months later, in February of 1937, members of a local band stopped to eat. One fellow, Stewie Strange, complained about the plain hamburgers and asked for "something new, something different." In response, Wian invented the double deck hamburger. He intended it as a joke. He sliced a hamburger roll twice, dressing it with mayonnaise, adding lettuce and cheese to the bottom section. Then Wian added a large dallop of the red relish he'd copied from The Rite Spot, to the top level. Wian then took the red relish he'd copied from The Rite Spot, and added a large dallop to the top level, So much that it poured over the edge. He intended the first unnamed Big Boy as a joke, intending to look like a leaning tower, in response to the Strange request.

The double deck hamburger was an unexpected hit and Wian sought a "snappy name" for his creation.

A heavyset 6 year old boy, Richard ----, performed chores in exchange for free hamburgers. One day, coming into the shop, Wian said, "Hey Big Boy!" The hamburger was named.

A local homebuilder, Arnold -----, proposed a second location. The second restaurant was built in Burbank.

By 1942 five Big Boy restaurants were in operation in the Los Angeles area, as coffee shops and drive ins. Americas entry into the second World War produced shortages of both food and labor, and one restaurant closed.

By 1938 Wian began using die cut menus cut along the profile of the Big Boy character. About 1956 a common designed die cut menu featuring the redesigned Big Boy character was adopted by most of the Big Boy franchises. his menu included a common congenial message on the front.

Before Big Boy

The great depression struck when Wian entered Glendale High School in 1929 and he volunteered three years in the school cafeteria in exchange for free lunches. After graduating in 1933 he found employment as an overnight dishwasher at a White Log Cabin Coffee Shop, a California chain similar to the better known White Castle restaurants in the Midwest. Wian quickly envisioned himself owning a chain of restaurants and took interest in the White Log operation. He soon was promoted to fry-cook. Once Wian learned the White Log system, he quit and accepted a job as a dishwasher at The Rite Spot. A favorite eatry of Wian's, the Rite Spot was owned by Lionel Sternberg, who invented the cheeseburger there a decade earlier. Wian befriended the manager and advanced to fry-cook.

This was the restaurant where owner Lionel Sternberg invented the cheeseburger a decade earlier. Wian was befriended by the manager and likewise advanced to fry-cook, learning in detail how the Rite Spot's foods were made. Wian wanted to know how the chili and hamburgeers were made, but saw Sternberg's exacting attitude/benefits.
