There's one cool benefit of date ' 7/11' today and the fact it's Monday is even cooler.

Slurpee. A word that sounds kind of gross but puts an image in our heads none of us, especially the 80s and 90s kids, can ever forget. In fact, I think they hooked us all on that high-fructose corn syrupy-red-and-blue-dye-bomb-frozeness as kids so we were bound to be repeat customers as adults. It's a just a theory, but I feel the same about Pop-Tarts, Funyons and Mountain Dew. See my point?

Slurpees and the Slurpee Machine. Everyone wanted to try this.

Thanks to WQAD.com for the heads up, you can enjoy a small Slurpee until 7 p.m. tonight!

Hurry, go grab that cup-o-brain-freeze while you can today. With the heat index rivaling that of hell itself, my hair frizzing like Bob Ross in a 70's disco, and the fact that we're all still sweatin' to the oldies at the radio station even though the air conditioning is on,  I can't and won't begin to judge a Slurpee today.
