[Nuts about smurfing]

I arrived when the storks dropped me in 77! I landed on my head, which explains a lot since...

I was born 30th July 1965 & so will be 41 at the end of next month. It seems that most members are in their 30s if I'm not mistaken which is interesting

Maybe it has to do with the fact that Smurfs were really a big deal in the early '80s. In Italy, besides the figurines, there were TV cartoons and comic strips, so young kids that were big fans of the Smurfs back then are now collectors (that will be us!) in their 30s.

I have my birthday on july 11 1973 Easy to rember if you think of the 7/11 (convenient store)

talking about numbers repeating each other get this..
my oldest was born august 12 (12 days late
second born november 12 (6 days late)
third was born december 18 (3 days late)
fourth was march 30 (9 days late)
add 12 and 18 you get 30 All my numbers are divisible with 3.. not sure what that means though.. Also a strange family fact is that my mother was baptised on the same date as I was born (just 22 years earlier)
It is strange how certain dates and numbers repeat themselves..

Hi Gerda

That was pretty interesting about your birthdates being surrounded by the number 3......I know my Mum has somethign about the number 4.....it just comes up time and time again and I seem to have 7 & 11 that appears in passwords etc even though I don't get to choose a lot of them....they just tend to be 7s or 11s around me. There was a time where everytime I looked at a clock it was 11 past the hour...I mean so many times it was kinda freaky. I remember asking a friend what the time was and he said "why do you even bother asking".....it was 11 past something at the time.

I think I can remember that one ....so much easier when you link it to Slurpee Heaven.

OMG that has happend to me ALOT lately Only it is always at 9:11. It never fails I always end up looking at the clock at exactly that time that it is freaking me out.. this has been hapeing for about the past two months now. Now I am so weirded out by it that I try not to look at the clock at all anymore..

Wow Gerda, you were born exactly one week before me! My birthday is the 18/7/1973. Worst thing about my birthday is that my mother-in-law's is the same day!

[Margaret]

Wow that is really crazy about the 7 / 11 thing .
I thought it was only me I was born 11 / 17 / 74 at 7:11 pm and weighed 7 lb 11 oz I always thought that was really funny

Weird....that's amazing. I've lost count how many times I asked Santa for my very own Slurpee Machine....just so I could put it next to my bed so every morning when I wake up......it's Slurpee Day

Dyar

PS - Does anyone know how to stop a slurpee melting when mixed with alcohol?....I just have never been able to figure that one out.

[Guest]

What is a slurpee? Is that like a Slush Puppie?

[Syd Smurf]

Yes it is but so much better Karen.....I will find one of the pics I have with a slurpee....if it wasn't the middle of winter I would get one right now....ah stuff winter......me need slurpee now.

I thought it was the same thing

When Dyar and Jen used to talk about slurpees that's what i thought they were.

Hmmmm, where can i get one Dyar?

[Syd Smurf]

Hmmmm, where can i get one Dyar?

If you like I will send one in the post for you Rae....hey if Karen can send snow then a Slurpee shouldn't be too hard....and the fact you live closer means it may still be frozen when it gets there.

Do they have 7-11 stores in South Australia Rae, Trish or Brad?

I have now addicted my son to Slurpees...I am such a bad Daddy

[Gerda]

Around here I have not seen a 7-11 store in ages.. at least there is none where I normaly go. But all our gas stations have a Icee machine that is just like a slurpee that comes in ususally two diffrent flavores not sure what they are but they are blue and red.

Oh yes...the good ol Icees.....I think that might of been where it all started for me Gerda. Iwas just looking through some old photos of me and my friends from when I was at school.....it's amazing how many of them featured me with a slurpee in my hands....I don't think I ever noticed that before. I guess that's why they called me a Slurpologist in high school.

It's winter here so I haven't had a Slurpee for a couple of months now.....but there is nothing like a hot Australian summer and a slurpee to cool down.

My 4 year old son drives me crazy every time we pass a 7 - 11
he wants a slurpee and he will scream for me to please stop , but he calls them slushies from the movie Dumb and Dumberer . I guess it does not matter what you call it its all the same flavored ice and really tasty !!
