Hmm odd question...their are a bunch of ways..
Microwave: Alot of people like this fast and easy method, it takes no longer then afew minutes, many people in college or people in a high speed life prefer to use it. All it takes is either a well shaped bowl with a plate over it, or another method is tuperware with a lid, throw in the scrambled eggs pop on the lid and put it in the microwave for 3 - 4 minutes. This way creates more of a sandwhich ready type of egg.
**NOTE** YOU MUST PAM WHATEVER YOU PUT EGGS IN, PAIN IN ASS TO GET OUT
Stove: Now this is more then likely the first one that comes to many peoples minds, its the good old fashioned stove. All it takes is a little more time then the easier way 'microwave' but the taste is x10 better. Take a pan , and place on a burner. Turn the burner on to about medium , to medium high. Spray either PAM, or you can lightly put Extra Virgin Olive Oil in the pan (EVVO) , If you want the extra calories, and fat you have to keep burner on Medium, otherwise the calories, and fats burn because of the temperature (Not literally). Once the pan is hot, you throw on the eggs and let it sizzle
This way of cooking also allows for different types of eggs to be cooked, all go through the 3 basic.
Scrambbled: This is the most basic type of cooking eggs, almost everybody knows it, but incase you dont this is how you acheive scrambled eggs. Take a bowl, and crack as many eggs as you want. Once all the eggs are in the bowl take a fork, and slowly make an oval type movement towards you, this causes the yolk, and White (embryotic fluid) to mix. The end result should be a dominant yellow color. Throw this into the hot pan, and let it heat, every now and then mix it up in the pan using a spatula, you can also add cheese.
Omelet: This is one of the most delicious treats you can make with an egg, it however is more complicated, but it is still great. Alright well do the same as what we did in the scambbled egg section, but instead of scrambbling it in the pan, all we do is let it first become some what solid, and then we slowly and gently push in on the outisde of egg and let the fluid hit the pan and cook. once it is thoroughly cooked, you can add anything you want, cheese, onion,peppers etc.
Sunny Side Up Egg: Mmm this one is my favorite, this is more then likely the hardest type of egg to cook, it takes alot of practice and even then it is hard. Take the pan, and put oil in it, and put it on Medium High - High. Crack the egg on the pan, and let it into the pan. The goal of the sunny side up egg is to keep the Yolk Whole. Once the egg white (embroytic fluid) is cooked, you have to gently flip the entire egg over without popping the yolk. Gently let it cook only for 1 - 2 minutes. And remove. This is great with toast, and you dip into the yolk.

I love to cook onion (chopped very fine) in a pan with a small amount of olive oil. brown it off, if you like add some sliced up bacon and cook it all together.
crack black pepper on it and let the flavours happen! then in another bowl i scarmble 2 eggs and 1/2 cup of egg whites (around 4 1/2 egg whites) add some cheese to the bowl and mix it thru.
then i just pour my eggs onto the cooked bacon + onion (non stick pan helps ALOT) and mix everything together. i dont bother trying to keep it flat like an omelette just mix it all up. add some finely chopped fresh tomato and and your done!
more pepper! whole grain toast! presto. best scrambled eggs ever

Here's what I do every single morning:
-mix 3 whole eggs in a bowl with two tbsp of heavy cream (gives a nice texture to the omelette)
-cook it
-add meat&cheese (whatever you feel like really)
-fold
-eat
And if I'm too lazy for that, I just scramble them with some deli chicken breast*** Misc Cigar Crew ***

There are a couple ways that I alternate, but they tend to be the easiest and they are my favorite ways of eating eggs.
For starters, the way that I do it the most. I have a really nice electric skillet with a super non stick surface. I spray a bit of PAM on it, turn it up to 350 degrees, and get out about 5 or so eggs and crack them right over it...Sprinkle on some black pepper and (yeah, I know...) salt and flip them over, let the other side cook a little, and voila! Tasty eggs, now I'll either chow down on them like this, or eat them with whole wheat bread/bagel and that's some good eats right there.
OR! Get some of those egg whites in a carton, get about 3 eggs worth, mix it in a bowl with a couple whole eggs, add in favorite ingredients (or nothing at all), and again with the skillet!
