Chocolate Math

I got this in an email forward and it really worked-- thought some of you might enjoy it, too.

YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

Kids will think this is so neat! Maybe you too.

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.

First, pick the number of times a week that you would like to
have chocolate.
(more than one but less than 10)

Multiply this number by 2.

Add 5.

Multiply this total by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator.

If you've already had your birthday this year, add 1756.
If you haven't, add 1755.

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 have chocolate each week).

The next two numbers are

YOUR AGE!

Oh, YES it is!!!!!

2006 IS THE ONLY YEAR THAT THIS "CHOCOLATE MATH" WILL WORK,

SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.
