MY MOMS COMPUTER NUMBER

[goofy]

AS A KID THE ONLY NUMBER TO REMEMBER WAS THE COMPUTER NUMBER 14109 YOU COULD DO NOTHING WITHOUT IT.........

Hi Goofy,
I can certainly remember that old computer number..... it was like gold.....the humble beginning of the modern day credit card methinks. Ours was 17213. Can you believe that, I have not thought about that number for near on 30 years, but it just came to me in a flash. If that's not an imprint on the brain, then I don't know what is. How's it hanging anyway, fellow O/munder? What are you up to these days? What about your brother Kenny?

Mmmmm, that's true!  You could and still can't do anything without a computer number!  My dad's 33081.  Now I am old enough to have my own, but still can't seem to remember the damn thing!  Have it saved on my cell...

You're right about the computer numbers being imprinted in your brain. I still remember my dad's computer number and he left Namdeb almost 20 years ago. As a kid growing up in Oranjemund it was just as important as remembering your home address and telephone number !! You needed it for everything.

Pity you can't remember your wife or kids' birthdays or their ages!

Computer Number and the company credit card, however only the credit card with the CDM details allowed me to purchase spares for my bakkie from Datsun in Cape Town at, if I remember correctly 40% discount, when I paid in cash the sales man wanted to know why the company was not being billed, had to explain it was for a private job.

I was at the hospital this morning collecting my "beautiful" drugs,
and you have to write down your computer No. and for the life of me I could not remember it, but lo and behold I remembered my Dad's from all those years ago, so I just wrote that down, nobody was the wiser!

And noboidy from the pharmacy will read what you just said in your post?  :D :D

I would think about retracting the post!  ;D

[Michael Alexander]

Gee! those drugs must be affecting my judgement!

They got their money from me as I am private and not a company man!

[Alfred Boehme]

My moms was 30589 and my dads was 10510, I used to rotate them so that the deductions on there pay slips did'nt look so bad what a asset to have, unfortunately my mom used to work at the shoe dep and was good freinds with the staff at the sweety shop my name was black listed

[Paul Alexander]

Ja Mike, mines also close 315044.... Remember you could tell who had been in town the longest cos they all has really short numbers... 5 digits or less, these days some folk have 7 digits

I wonder where the hell my number came from ...  533459.  When I started working at IT, I realised I had the highest number in town for a while!!!

Everybody except my mom had very similar numbers.  My dad's was 33456.  Um.  Don't ask me what Mientjie and Denise's are, I just remember they were close, ok?   ::)
