Chocolate Calculator

I was forwarded this email today that has to do with math and predicting your number at the end. It worked on me. Try it out, it's pretty cool...and supposedly it only works in 2009, so try to do it before the year is over. (you may need a calculator)


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

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

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1759...If you haven't, add 1758.

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.
