Your Age by Chocolate

We love chocolate

It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read. 

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.

3. Add 5. (for Sunday)

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

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1754. If you haven't, add 1753 .

6. Now subtract the four-digit year that you were born. That calculation should give you 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!

This is the only year (2004) that it will ever work, so there.
