four more and we got a seven partie

by the way, i loved 7 Up too, but do not mean the drink, which i find quite boring without twist

the series was a brilliant BBC documentarysequel on the same set of individuals, filmed and interviewed at the ages of 7,14,21,28,35,42 &c

i don't know if it is still ongoing, but it was fascinating

to see who lives had been mapped out by the age of 7 (tragic really)
at least one suicide and one homeless, and totally predictable
in retrospect

anyway, back to the party,

i love Seven of Nine, and all of her in all of her blond Borg prowess!

I'm the oldest one here...I'm 500 years young. OK, that was a lie I am really 25 but turning 26 this month on the 19th! Ancient! I remember the dinosaurs and the first Atari computer! And I thought it had good graphics! I almost forgot that it is February! Great memory!

I have huge gaps in my memory from childhood. I don't remember 7.

the guernsey police once subjected me to having to count down from i believe it was 93, in jumps of seven

that was not easy, considering they had stopped me driving the little bus i had just dropped off a dutch ladies hockey with at their camp site, and returmed to festivities;

not being able to produce a modern alcohol-blow-test; so at the street, i sort of passed the official standing-on-one-leg tes and some others, leaving them not quite able to make up their minds at to whether indeed i was or was not over the limit (o, i was)

taken to the station i got asked the most remarkable questions (did i know what day it was, or date - no idea, i'm just here for the easter hockey festival), so finally i struggled through this 7 DOWN thing, when then they decided not to risk making asses out of themselves, told me i could pick up the bus first thing next morning (which i did not attempt pointing out it already near dawn) and how i were to get to where i needed to be:
they were kind enough to drop me off af the intended private hotel bar, where my adventure received apt lauding and we were off for dawn patrol

No offence but was that really APPROPRIATE for a thread started by a 7yr little boy?

Why would you say that? He doesn't have any info other than being a diagnosed male. We have regular ten year old posters here, I don't know why it's such a leap of faith to believe a seven year old could do it.


iamspecial300, you might like the kid's crater subforum.

If you are truly seven can I ask you something about your age? Or the others if they can rememeber that age well. Did you cry alot at this age? Like the littlest thing made you cry? My mom said it's a 7 year old thing and me and my sister did it although I don't remember that age. :-)


I cried MUCH more than I do now, but still generally didn't cry. I usually did only if I was physically hurt bad. Outside of a BAD fall, or a BAD beating, I didn't. As for the fall, there used to be steps built by IDIOTS! A law was actually passed AGAINST them in the mid 70s(AFTER my problems). It was possible to jam your foot into the area where a RISER SHOULD have been, and have your effort to climb the stairs force you to fall DOWN the stairs. THAT made me cry. Even I at that young age knew they should have done that. Last I heard, building codes REQUIRED it.

As for iamspecial being 7, it's possible, but who should care.

If I were born on 2/29, I would only have about 11 birthdays.

Scary thing is, I was born March 1, 1980 shortly after midnight. I barely missed being born on February 29! Now how confusing would that have been for me... ;)
