YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATHS
This is pretty neat.
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute
Work this out as you read ..
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have chocolate
(more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator.
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....
If you haven't, add 1755.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number.
The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).
The next two numbers are .....
YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

I don't know why it works, but it does. I bet if we ask CountriGal, she could figure it out. She's great at that stuff! WhiteSatin |
