Darn! I can't play. There is no way I'd eat out at least twice a week.

Worked for me..But I ain't doin no more age tests. It's bad enough that the person who is on the other side of the mirror keeps tellin' me my age

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 1757 ....
If you haven't, add 1756.

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 go out to restaurants in a week.)

The next two numbers are

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

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS
Oh! my Gosh!! This is so correct!! It was right on the money when I did this the first time. I did it a 2nd time to be sure and I got the same answer!! Wow!! Never thought of that...Cool...Thanks...

If it's Applebee's or Chili's, yeah, I can eat out 2 times a week. I used to when I danced back east and made more money. But most of the time I would just go to have a few drinks and have a good time.
