DLL's anything goes thread

thought this was cool......


YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but your waiter may know!

YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH

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 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 1757 ....
If you haven't, add 1756.



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 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

15-18 correct: You've cleared most of the hurdles and are still sitting relatively tall in the saddle. Practice, you should be reminded, makes perfect.

10-15 correct: If you were a bronc rider, you'd be skedaddling away from the horse that just threw you after a four-second ride--but you can take consolation in the fact that you tried the ride.

By the way, Rex Allen's horse was Koko.
