I do not have the habit of reading forwarded ‘chain’ emails even though they come from reliable sources. However, I break this rule once in a while. The subject (somehow food-related) of a recent email sent by my good friend Nonoy O caught my attention and decided to open the message and read further . . .

YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT MATHEMATICS

Don’t tell me your age; you probably would lie anyway – but your waiter may know!

This is pretty neat. 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!

• 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.)

• Multiply this number by 2. Add 5. Multiply it by 50.

• If you have already had your birthday this year add 1757. If you haven’t, add 1756.

• 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 go out to restaurants in a week).

• The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!).

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.

My age? Go, figure . . . tee hee!
