YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

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 have chocolate(more than once but less than 10)

Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

Add 5

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

If you have already had your birthday this year add 1755 ....
If you haven't, add 1754.

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! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2005) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND
WHILE IT LASTS.

The number you picked times 10 will be the amount of weight you gain each year from eating chocolate.

i dunno what is wrong with these people that they think you would want to eat chocolate less than 10 times a year.
The forumula needs to be adjusted to allow for at least 100 times a week ;)

cool but why would this only work in 2005? I tried a couple different things but can't figure it out, I don't see the common factor for that...hummm

edited to say if you add one more to the 1755 or 1754 then you can use it next year and the years beyond...man that made my head hurt.
