  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 1756 ....
  If you haven't, add 1755.

  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
  (ie., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)
  The next two numbers are
  YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

  It didn't work.  It got my age wrong by eight years.

  Be kind, because everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.
