A Riddle that works...

CALCULATING YOUR AGE FROM EATING OUT.


I won't ask your age,you probably would tell a falsehood anyway, Lordy knows I'm still 29!! Anyway, check this out....



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, unless you really do have somthing to do!!




1. First of all, pick the number of
times a week that you would like to go out to eat. (more than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold).

3. Add 5.

4. Multiply it by 50.

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1758;
if you haven't, add 1757.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.


You should have a three digit number. The first digit was your original number (i.e., how many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week).
The next two numbers are -----


YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!)






THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) THAT IT WILL EVER WORK!

How do people come up with this? And it is true!! I just am not that smart!!

Later!
