YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH:

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST! It takes less than a minute... work
this out as you read...

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 (Just to be bold)

3. Add 5. (for Sunday)

4.. Multiply it by 50 I'll wait while you get the
calculator.................

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add
1755....

If you haven't, add 1754 .

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!!!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2005) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT
LASTS.

hehe I didn't need the calculator, though I made a mistake I multiplied by 5 instead of adding 5

ah well it only works because of the year you were born. it basicly tells the formula how old you are. with these numbers it will only work this year but you could easily change it to work next year as well.
